Oh hey, Friday… I’m so glad to see you! I’m finally getting back into the swing of things {kinda} and excited to be joining Karli, Amy and Amanda today!

1 | In all the chaos of the past two weeks, I completely forgot about Einstein’s birthday on Sunday. Puppy mama of the year, right? The worst part is it’s not like I remembered Sunday night or even Monday morning… it was Wednesday afternoon before it hit me.

In order to make it up to Stein, we headed to PetSmart Wednesday evening and spent $40 on treats and cookies. {Not just for his birthday, we were completely out of treats.} We came home and had a party for our baby boy. Happy 6th birthday, Einstein!

2 | I think I’ve already mentioned this a few times this week but Orange is the New Black is my new jam. We’ve been watching it non-stop for a week now. Is it bad that we’re almost through both seasons? We gotta slow down because I don’t think new episodes come out until 2015. Yikes!

3 | Yesterday afternoon I received a scary phone call from my mom saying their house was on fire and she was headed home. Before I could ask any questions, she said she would call me when she had more answers and hung up. It immediately brought back flashbacks to my eight year old self being woken up by my mom screaming “get up! the house is on fire!”

Lightening struck their breaker box and that’s what started the fire but my sister was home and called the fire department. Had she not been there, it would have been a total loss. Unfortunately, they have a lot of smoke damage, no power and you can see the mess it caused. Hotel Sloan has officially opened and is at capacity {we have one couch cushion still available}. We are so thankful for the calls and text by neighbors and friends!

4 | The only positive thing about the fire is my mom had to clean out their fridge {and if you know my mom, you know it’s always stocked} and it all had to go somewhere. Hello, groceries…we sure missed having you around!

5 | My cousin Justin is tying the knot with his high school sweetheart, Ali, this weekend and we are so excited to celebrate with them and officially welcome her to the family! I helped host their shower a few weekends ago and plan on recapping it next week.
