Ruffled Tunic w/ Velvet Leggings

Today I wanted to share a post that I recently shared over at Shea Lennon's blog. Today I'm wearing an outfit that I wore on my anniversary. My hubby took the day off work and we had a 'date day', except it turned out that he got sick and stayed home to rest most of the day. We did go out for breakfast and had some delicious gooey butter cake! He also took me to the mall and I got a new band for my Apple Watch.

The Creative Corner Link Up Party & Weekly Recap - 11/27/16

Welcome back to our DIY/Craft Link Up Party! Thank you for stopping by every week! Today's Feature is  DIY Rustic Holiday Ornament Decor by Simply Designing. I like to share a little recap of my week at the start of each party: We had a full week! The kids only had TWO days of school (lucky ducks) and then we headed to Kansas City to celebrate Autumn's birthday at the Great Wolf Lodge! I will be sharing a recap post of our trip on Friday. Today we had Thanksgiving #2 with my family at my brother and SIL's house. It was a lot of fun and my brother always makes the BEST turkey! Yum! My plate from Thanksgiving #2 and a birthday cake for my mom and Autumn (both had birthdays on the same week!).
