What I'm LOVING Wednesday!

I hope everyone is having a great week...here's What I'm LOVING this Wednesday!



1. I'm LOVING that today is the last day of August. Hello September, skinny jeans, boots & scarves!

2. I'm LOVING that it's Labor Day weekend...a little bummed about not going to the beach anymore but glad to spend the weekend at home and by the pool.

3. Although they were total impulse buys, I'm LOVING my two new pairs of Tory Burch shoes... no buyer's remorse here :)

4. I'm LOVING that football season is officially HERE - Athens here we come!


5. And last but not least, I'm LOVING that I just walked in from work to a clean, clean house!

I could get used to more weekends like this.

To celebrate my upcoming new job in Roswell, Austin surprised me on Saturday with an overnight get-a-way to Atlanta! Hotel reservations were made at Loews in Midtown and dinner reservations were made at Chops in Buckhead.

My second surprise...Havolynne and Austin were joining us in Atlanta! After meeting at the hotel, the four of us were shuttled to Chops for a fabulous dinner. My Oysters Rockefeller and 6 oz. Lobster Tail did not disappoint.

After dinner, we went over to Joe's on Juniper for after-dinner drinks. Thankfully, no one was robbed or held at gun point as Austin Saxon suspected. :)

Round 2...



After several drinks and 3 rounds of shots = Hav and Austin dance party
We then walked over to this new night club (forgot the name) on Peachtree Street. Upon arriving back at the hotel, there was a huge party in the lobby. I thought for sure that I'd spotted Cee Lo Green...I walked over to ask this woman standing next to him if that was actually Cee Lo. She said no, that he was some big music producer...when I turned around, I was face to face with Theo from The Cosby Show. Of course, I had to ask for a picture!

My third surprise from Austin was an hour-long deep tissue massage for Sunday morning. Sooo nice! I think I could have stayed a few more days at Loews...

We stopped at Food 101 for brunch and I somehow convinced Austin to being seated on their porch. :) Check out this chicken, cheese, egg and buttermilk biscuit. Talk about a massive amount of food.

I could definitely get used to more weekends like this! I spent all of Sunday napping and catching up on Lifetime movies while Austin played golf.
