Weekend Recap - San Antonio!

Even though we were still exhausted from Vegas, we headed to San Antonio last Friday for my company's annual picnic for our San Antonio offices.  Jason and I had such a great time, but are also looking forward to a weekend in Houston coming up. 

Friday
We left for San Antonio after work.  I was excited for the mandatory Bucee's stop!  We got in to San Antonio late (for us) but I squeezed in time for a drink and a chat with my mommy who was already at the hotel!  We stayed at the Westin La Cantera which was wonderful!!!  I highly recommend it.

Saturday
After exploring the beautiful hotel, we headed to Fiesta Texas for the company picnic.  No rides for us though.  I got my roller coaster fix in while in Vegas. 




Me and my beautiful mommy!!



Mom, Jason, LE (my stepdad)



Me and Jack at the company lunch



That afternoon, Jason and LE played golf while mom and I went on a nature hike.  Ironically, we saw no nature (besides trees), while the boys saw plenty including wild turkeys, deer, and gators. 

We went to a nice dinner on the property with mom and LE and were about to call it a night, when we noticed Speaker of the House John Boehner and his security detail at the hotel bar watching the Ranger's game.  We decided to stalk hang out there for a bit too.  We ended up seeing Congressman Pete Olson and friends also.  I wish I would have taken a picture with them, but I was feeling shy. 


Sunday
After lounging around the hotel, we headed home, but took the long way and stopped for lunch in Lockhart for Black's Barbecue.  This was our second stop this year and this time we got to take a picture with Matthew McConaughey!!!  Just kidding, but I got to take a picture of a picture of him.  Missed him by a few months.



I never knew that half price of $8.00 was $6.00! 

We were glad to finally be home because we missed Tucker a lot and decided he needed a puppy spa day.

Another Erin Condren Deal

Plum District is offering another deal of $25.00 for $50.00 worth of goodies on ErinCondren.com.  I'm not sure how long the deal will last so get it soon!  You can use your credit for a customized Life Planner, holiday cards, labels, etc.  They even just released personalized iPhone covers.

Happy Shopping,
Chelsea

Almond Joy Obsession

I love Almond Joy candy bars and lately they have been everywhere!  In my office, in my house (Jason's obsessed too) and everywhere in between. 

We just got back from Vegas (numerous trip posts coming soon) where I devoured enjoyed an Almond Joy Martini at Sugar Factory and this morning I tried the new Almond Joy coffee creamer by International Delight, which I highly recommend!

Blog Love

Check out my friend, Roxy's new blog, And then some.  She features great product reviews and fashion updates.  Enjoy! 

Today is my Friday.  TGIT.  Have a great weekend everyone!

Heel Liners

Have I been living under a rock?  Last week I fell in love with a great pair of animal print pumps...perfect for my upcoming trip to Vegas...but my narrow heel slipped out of them.  So annoying! 

What's a girl to do?

My shopping assistant mom told me about heel liners to help with this. 

Problem solved!  Thanks Mom!!!

Weekend Recap

Friday
What a fun (and interesting) Friday night I had!  I had to volunteer at the Children's Museum of Houston through the Junior League for an "Overnight Adventure" with about 200 fourth graders.  The kids were so sweet and excited to be spending the night at a museum.  This was my first time doing this placement so I was not quite sure how it was go, but I ended up enjoying myself...didn't get much sleep, but that's okay!

Saturday
Lazy day at home since I didn't get much sleep.  Once I got back from the museum around 8am, I never left the house!  We watched a really interesting movie from our Uverse On Demand called Undocumented.  I recommend it, but warning: it is hard to watch.  It's categorized as a horror film, but it deals with illegal immigration.  The main message being equal rights for all humans. 

Sunday

Lazy day #2 because it rained ALL DAY!  We did venture out to go see Dream House.  Two thumbs up.  Great movie and Daniel Craig looks amazing in it!!!

Leg Warmers

Although I'm not a huge fan of 80's fashion, I'm loving that leg warmers are making a comeback.  Not necessarily for daily wear, but great for yoga or weekend wear when it gets chilly with your fave leggings. 

Lululemon sold out completely online with their version.  I didn't snatch up a pair because I couldn't swallow the $48.00 price tag, but I did notice an almost identical-looking pair at DSW for only $12.95! 

I'm officially adding leg warmers to my Christmas list!
