Nordstrom Anniversary Sale•Weekending

Weekend Roundup

July 14, 2014

Welcome to Monday.  I swear it took all of last week to finally feel back to normal and not behind the 8 ball the whole time.  Did any of you feel like that?  Like you were playing catch up all week?  This weekend was a much needed relief!

Friday was Marks birthday and we celebrated it by going to one of our favorite places Berns.

Dress old but similar here///bracelet///heels old but similar here

I even got my quota of 2 iPhone pictures for the weekend ;-)

We like to sit in the bar area and order the burgers and steak sandwiches it is not on the menu but if you ask the bartenders they know what you are talking about.  We were actually awake enough to make it out for a drink and stayed up past midnight…..exciting times around here.

some combined birthday presents majority from my mother because she’s adorable/amazing like that

Saturday I got my hair did, did some major research for the Nordstrom Anniversary sale and then got sucked into Orange is the New Black with Mark.  Seriously that show is a black hole.  We just started Season 2 and I’m definitely hooked.

Oh and definitely went and bought more of these.  Remember from this post?  I am officially impressed the lilac color is my favorite.

Sunday was more catching up and relaxing.  Then Mark wanted to make birthday dinner, I was very impressed NOLA BBQ shrimp…..I’ll have to coax the recipe out of him it was delicious!

How was your weekend??  Check back tomorrow for the complete guide to all my picks for the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale the goes live for non cardholders on this Friday!  xoxoxoxo

    I love it when I feel like I have energy on a Friday night to go out for date night. Seems to help make the weekend seem longer. I got myself the navy zella leggings on Anniversary Sale and can’t wait til they arrive.

    SOOO when does the anniversary sale start for the people who DON’T have a Nordstrom card? I have a few items on my must-have list, so I’m hoping they aren’t sold out by the time I can buy them!!

  39. Julie @ Just the Joy's says

    July 14, 2014 at 6:49 PM

    I’m jealous that your man cooks meals for you! I’m lucky if I can get mine to make me a damn egg and bacon for breakfast! :) Love your pink dress that you wore over the weekend! :)

    July 14, 2014 at 8:09 PM
