One of my friends recently had her birthday celebration at Dave n Busters. Naturally, I wanted to wear something cute and light weight so I could comfortably play the arcade games while carefully trying not to look too drunk-izzle. This skirt was one of my recent finds at Sears and I've fallen in love with it.. fits so well!

Meet Joey!!

Joey is seriously the apple of our eye. He turned 5 on January 9th but continues to act like a 5 month old puppy :) Joey warms our hearts and truly makes our family complete. For all of those of you wondering, he is a Bischon-Poo... meaning he is half Bischon Frise, half Poodle.

Why the name Joey, you ask? lets just say that Joey is our favorite "Friend" (get it?!?)

OOTD #6: Out to dinner with mom and dad

I went out to dinner with my mom and dad to celebrate my grandma's birthday. We went to Lazy Dog Cafe because we decided to go somewhere that our dog can join us. It just so happens that our dog's birthday lands on the same day as my grandma's, hence why we wanted to go somewhere that Joey (our dog) can go too... I know sounds totally LA!
