This cocoon cardi is to die for, you guys! I feel like a little kangaroo in her mama's pouch. I may just cuddle up in this and hibernate in it for the rest of winter. If I go missing, you'll know where to find me.




Are bell sleeves my new obsession? Maybe. Is it a problem? Not yet...

But in all honesty, this is a craze that I can get behind. I love the "umph" factor that bell sleeves add to an outfit. I love them on dresses and I love them on tops and I plan to add more to my collection throughout the fall!

So happy I finally got my hands on a Who What Wear piece from Target! I browsed the collection when it originally came out but wasn't completely awed by it (in all honesty) and the price point wasn't perfect for me. I went to Target last week while on vacay in Florida and found this adorable top for only $16! (Not featured in this photo is the adorable button up back!)

I had a "big girl" job interview today... I think it went pretty well! I know there are some other candidates so I'm not holding my breathe but it would be awesome to get this new job! The salary would be life changing for us.. Either way, God knows what He is doing so if I get it, I get it. And if not, oh well. All in His hands and I am okay with either outcome!

In other news, I seem to have been in a black and white mood lately...

David has finally graduated from the Dallas Police Academy, woo hooooooooooo!!! Both his family and my family came to down for the festivities. Thursday was the badge pinning ceremony - this is when each recruit has a loved one (or officer) pin their official badge on them! I was so honored to be selected by David to be his pinner :) It was a cute and intimate ceremony - only his parents, sister and I were there.

On Friday was another ceremony where all of his family and friends were invited to! His class marched in and did all there police-y things, we watched a video that reflected on their time at the academy and listened to a few speeches. I am so proud and excited for him, while terrified at the same time! He will be fighting bad guys on the streets and hopefully staying safe. I don't know what I would do without him. He's my po-po hero.

The last week has been crazy and has included David's friend visiting last weekend, the Texas State Fair, another work week, and my sister currently visiting! So this will be a very quick picture update :)

Miley's birthday was Monday so obviously I had to make a collage for her:

Yesterday, I took my sister to the Dallas Market for a little personal shopping and ended the night at Uptown with pizza and gelatos!:

Now we are headed to the Dallas Zoo! David and I have never been there so we though it would be a fun thing to do with my sister. Then who knows what the rest of the day will entail!
