Hello my lovely friends! I feel like Im SOOOO late blogging and posting pics of the OH SO FABULOUS swap that was hosted by the super sweet Miss Heather of Pretty Petals. I guess better late than never! hee! hee!

No time to waste! Onto the YUMMY eye candy!!!!!! My swap partner was Miss Analise of SUGAR*SUGAR. Heather did an OUTSTANDING job pairing us girls up with one another. We both LOVE the exact same things. I just knew I was going to have TONS of fun shopping and collecting little pretties for her!

The idea was to fill a "trunk" of sweet beautiful treasures. This was the trunk that I decided to use. This is my BEFORE picture.

I CANT resist showing you this next picture that I took today. My son TOTALLY takes after me. Im a HUGE chocolate lover! I literally have to have at least a small piece of chocolate a day. Hence the gumball machine in my kitchen full of peanut M&M’s. Anyhoo, I bought the small single cups of chocolate ice cream for my son to have as a special treat. This afternoon he sits at his little table in the kitchen to enjoy his ice cream. Meanwhile, Mommy is busy surfing the net and Flickr. 🙂 All of a sudden I look up from my computer to see this little dirty boy covered in chocolate!

I could NOT resist but to bust out laughing!!! This is what I LOVE about children!!!

This is a Tell-Tale sign that he enjoyed his ice cream! 😉

This past weekend was the Historic Macon Party of the Year which is an annual black tie event that we’ve attended the past three years . I invited my close girlfriend Heather to join us for a night of getting "dolled" up, sip champagne, eat yummy hor dourves,mingle and dance the night away. These are a few pics before we hit the town!

I usually wear a long gown to these events, but I found this gorgeous pale pink dress and just had to have it. I felt like a retro 50’s gal wearing this dress. I was told that SEVERAL times throughout the night.

Here is my handsome hubby and I.
