Treating myself for the New Year!

Ok, so I know Christmas is not even here yet but I just had to blog about New Years. My hubby told me yesterday about one of my Christmas presents...horse back riding New Years Eve afternoon, followed by a nice dinner and dancing at a nearby entertainment spot, and breakfast in bed the next morning before we leave! And, he's arranged child care for the girls already! I'm so excited I can hardly stand myself!! Silly right? Well it makes it even more exciting because in the 7 years we have been together, we have never done anything exciting on New Years. We've just spent the evening together at home, and the past few years we've even fallen asleep before the ball falls! Ha!

So, guess what I did today? I went shopping and bought a hot dress!! It's a dress that I typically wouldn't have bought. But as I browsed through the store I began gathering dresses that I thought I'd try even if it wasn't my usual style. I mean, it's new years right? Time to get a little funky and have some fun! I seriously had a stack of like 30 dresses! I'm sure the sales ladies were not happy with having to put 29 back on the racks...but at least I did hang them on the rack designated for "items you don't want" instead of leaving them rudely scattered in the dressing rooms! (That is one of my pet peeves! People are so disrespectful and lazy!). Anyways, I did snap a picture of me in the dress and text it to my hubby for his opinion. I hate dress shopping by myself because I am so indecisive. According to my mom I've been that way since I was young, and it seems to have only gotten worse with age! He approved rather quickly (ha!) and so I bought the dress!! Yay for me!

After dinner tonight I tried it on and modeled it for my girls and hubby. As soon as I walked in the room both girls said "oh mommy it's boo-tee-full!" and my hubbys eyes got big. Score! I think i did well! L and N immediately went and put on their princess dresses and we had a dance party to some Bubble Guppies jams!

Ill be sure blog about my fabulous New Years weekend goes, as it may be another 7 years before we live it up again! Lol!
