Pinspiration: Christmas Wish List Edition
Come October, my mom always asked us for our Christmas List growing up! She liked to get her shopping done early and I can't say I blame her! I'm sure I will be the same way when I have kids. Here is my pretend Christmas list, Pinterest edition!

High Five for Friday!
Link up with Lauren at From My Grey Desk for High Five for Friday!
I had a pretty exciting week that went by way too fast!!
1. I had two interviews this week!! One of the hospitals I interviewed at has been a dream of mine to work at since I moved to Dallas! Eeek! I don't want to tell you in fear of jink-sing it! LOL, silly I know ;)
2. Had a few babysitting jobs this week! I love these little kids!
3. My husband and I spent all day Tuesday in Ft. Worth. We first went to observe an auction that was going on that we would like to partiicpate in the future and then walked around Sundance Square. We also walked around the Stockyards and ate at Cattleman's Steak House!
4. I received a "Congratulations" card in the mail this week from some of the Texas Blogger Gals! There was a meet up last weekend that I could not go to, but they all signed a card for me! It meant the world! :)
5. We finally got all the Christmas decorations out! I will have my Christmas Mantel Reveal sometime next week!! :) I love it and can't stop looking at it!
Hope all of you had a great week! Enjoy your weekend :)

Sunday Social: All About Thanksgiving
All about Thanksgiving
Favorite Thanksgiving Memory:
Ha! When the sweet potatoe casserole caught fire in the over!! We got it out fast enough to where we just scrapped off the burnt marshmallows and then just replaced them. I remember my sister getting so upset because that was her favorite dish...
Favorite Thanksgiving Food:
The turkey of course and the pecan pie!!
What is a Thanksgiving Tradition you and your family have?
We would always put up the Christmas tree and all the other decorations in the house.
Show us a favorite Thanksgiving picture(or 5) from years past
Sadly, I don't have any with me right now. They are all at my parents house and they live about 5 hours away.
What are you most looking forward to about this Thanksgiving?
Hosting Thanksgiving Dinner at our house for the very first time! My parents and grandparents are driving up and Jon's family will be here too!! I'm also looking forward to spending our first Thanksgiving married! Last Thanksgiving which would have been our first, we were apart in different states as I completed an internship.

Fall Swap and High Five For Friday
It's time to reveal my swap goodies!! My package came from Rachel over at Life as Mrs.
I love the earrings! I wore them as soon as I got the package as I was heading out the door and the caramel apple sugar babies didn't last long!
Thanks Rachel for the goodies!!! :)
Now it's time for High Five for Friday!! Linking up with Lauren at From my Grey Desk .
1. Jon and I spend our first Halloween as a married couple at the Halloween Festival at church. Last year during Halloween I was in Florida completing an internship!
2. I reached 100 followers!! I'm so excited and thank you to all my readers!! I emailed the 100th follower about the prize! Hope to hear from her soon!! :)
3. I hosted my first blog hop!! You can see that here! Link up and meet someone new!
4. Amy did a guest post for me on Wednesday! It was perfect and I thank her for helping me out!!
5. I started running this week!! I'll fill you in on the progress. I'm trying to find more ways to save money and I think I'm going to give up my gym membership and do things at home. I hate the gym anyway and I really want to run a half marathon some day. :) I think I can do it!!
I hope everyone had a wonderful week!! Have any exciting plans for the weekend?

Time for a change
It is time to make some changes around here and I'm hoping that if I share them with you, it will hold me accountable...
1. Get a new blog design (I am getting tired of the one I have and would like to find someone who can personalize it more to reflect me and the purpose of my blog) Anyone, know of any good blog designers they have worked with before?
2. Host a guest blogger! It's time to pay it forward :)
3. Have a fun photo shoot for new pictures for my blog (there are so many blogs with the prettiest faces!!)
4. Reach 100 followers ( And when I do I would like to do a giveaway for the 100th follower)
5. Make a new button (well I guess that fits in with the whole new blog design)
6. Get out of the habit in participating in so many linkups. I truly love link ups, they are really fun and it has helped me meet a lot of other wonderful bloggers, but participating in just link ups was not the reason I started blogging. I will still participate in my favorites but also include some of my own writings when I do.
7. Assign two days out of the week to respond to emails and comments. I hate it when I have waited too long to respond to a comment or an email, and I get stressed when I see emails piling up so I think assigning Tuesdays and Sundays to respond to these would be a good idea!
Hope everyone has a fantastic weekend!! :)
