Blonde, Sweat & Wine

"When asked if my cup is half-full or hall empty, my only response is that I am thankful I have a cup" Thanksgiving weekend has sadly come and gone, but it sure was a slam packed one filled with lots of love and moments to reflect on how thankful I am! Bradley made it home just in time to be the victim of my overwhelming amount of food! He definitely didn't complain and was able to relax after a tough assignment. Usually, we either go up to Georgia and visit his family or down south to see my chaotic clan, however, with the new home and a busy schedule we decided to stay home and have our first Thanksgiving in our new home just us! It couldn't have been more perfect! We ate all the things we wanted, we were selfish and enjoyed every moment. He dove right in! Can't have Thanksgiving without homemade pecan pie! After naps, seconds and thirds, desserts, and much needed R&R, we ventured out Friday with my best friend, her hubby, and little one to bre...

This update is way overdue but I haven't really been in the mood for blogging. I love to blog but I have to be in the creative mindset! Something like a writer's block, I guess. This past weekend was a busy one but full of fun! We had a few visitors come and explore new places with us! On Friday, Brad's friend from West Palm came to see the house, while here we ventured out to Universal Studios. Bradley loves those rides, even though I could take it or leave it especially since working there, I am a good sport and go along for the fun. The guys would go ride and I hung back relaxing while they enjoyed. I am not a huge adrenaline junkie much anymore, I'm assuming this is a sign of growing up, lol!! Since I have left the restaurant there, CityWalk has opened a steam punk themed restaurant called Toothsome Chocolate Emporium based around the idea of a dessert and chocolate! It was delicious! The theme is carried out well throughout the entirety of the venue, food was e...

Happy Election Day 2016!! Folks, I know we are all MORE than ready for the obnoxious ads and memes to disappear, only to be replaced by ads and memes negatively directed towards our new president. I will not attempt to publicize who I am voting for, it's not anyone's business but mine...and my significant other. Gotcha there, don't I? This post was inspired by a few posts I saw this morning on my social media, couples who are not united in their decision. Honestly, I can't imagine being in a relationship where one stands for opposing beliefs. Brad and I had a tiff about Trump at the very beginning of this election season. I felt he was rude and obnoxious, but had good points and arguments. I just felt as if our president should be classy and know how to say things, similar to President George W Bush. After heated discussion, we came to our decision. He didn't demand that I vote for whoever, give me ultimatums, or degrade me for my opinions, but he educated me in h...
