Business and Pleasure

Early in the week, David received an email from his Dad inviting us to a "business dinner" Friday night.  We call it business and we talk some business, but it is way more pleasurable than the other business gatherings that I have attended over the years.  Reservations were made and we got dressed up for our night out.


Look at my cute hubby!  Aren't I the lucky one!!  Dinner was delicious (I had the salmon), the conversation great, and it was just fun to go somewhere besides a high school gymnasium.  I was excited to wear my pink granny blouse.  I buy every blouse I can find that has a bow at the collar.  I find most of them at the thrift store.  I LOVE them.  This one was a mere $3.  It has a fancy feel because it's silky, so I was glad that we were going to a nice restaurant.  I also bought my skirt at the thrift store.  The rest was stuff I had on hand.  I love it when I can put an outfit together with my thrifted finds.  
*I actually think I will post my thrifted finds of the week every Thursday - Thrifted Thursday!!  Thoughts?

Saturday consisted of more basketball games.  We watched Maren win her two games, Steven dominate his, and then headed to Rigby to watch Hannah and Lottie's games.


Just like I can't resist blouses with bows, I couldn't resist this dress either.  It's one of my favorite finds.  It's also thrifted.  I think I might have an addiction issue.  
Just an FYI - Lottie's team played an intense game - 4 overtimes.  She fouled out at the end of the fourth quarter, so we took off at the start of the first overtime to go to the other gym to watch Hannah's varsity team.  They played an amazing first half, but the second was disappointing.  Sad to say, both teams ended up losing.  There are some good life lessons to be learned from losing, so not all is lost.

Sunday was spent in one of my house dresses crocheting my granny squares.  I didn't take a photo.  It's one I've worn before and I was too busy watching Mad Men.
