the Sowell life's Friday five...
2) {A month of celebrating} I love getting texts from the Mr, especially when they include a sweet a message and a surprise. #itsthelittlethingsthatilove
So, of course, I chose Johnny Rays and enjoyed their BBQ chicken nachos... YUM. He had their wings.
3) {Time for Another Blate} I'm so excited to be hosting our second blate tomorrow. Hosting is one of my favorite things to do, and I have eight girls coming over tomorrow. The Mr has been great helping me get ready for the event. Just have a few more things to finish up and I'll be ready to open the door. YAY!!
4) {Trying New Places} Last night, after we did some shopping, we decided to try out a new to us Mexican restaurant. And, sometimes you find great places, and then sometimes you realize that will be the only time you ever eat there. The food was just bland, and once you've had the best Mexican food (like San Marcos in Meridian) you know when it's time to mark a place off your list. Oh, and when the Mr saw the rice... he knew something was up. HA!
5) {Our Special Delivery} We ordered some lawn furniture for the screened in back porch a few weeks ago, and it was delivered yesterday! Stupid me thought it was coming put together... but, hey, at least we got free delivery. Ha. The Mr plans to put the table together tomorrow afternoon! Yay! ***Sorry for the bad picture, it was a bit dark when we got home last night. But at least you get a look at the chairs. And I'll have more pictures later when we get it all set up.***
Well, that's the Sowell life's #theFridayfive... ready to link up?! I can't wait to see what y'all are posting today!
All this food is making me HUNGRY!!!! Except, yeah, what the heck is up with the Mr's rice? Peas? In mexican red rice? No bueno. The chairs are great, love the cushions! Happy weekend, Joy <3
ReplyDeleteMcAlisters is my ABSOLUTE favorite!!!! I love their sweet tea and I always get their chicken tortilla soup which has ruined me for any other type of chicken tortilla soup because honey, it doesn't get any better than that! They have great sandwiches too! I wish I could be at the blate tomorrow, but I don't think I'll be able to make it, but I promise, 100% (unless something unforseeable happens) that I will be at the one in April! :) I'm going to miss you ladies sooo much! I really do feel tears dripping down my heart! Have fun and share lots of pictures!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful furniture! I can't wait to see the entire set put together (and just in time for your blate too!!!). Can I just say, that I'm soooo envious that I can't come tmw!!! Seriously, green with envy!
ReplyDeleteMaybe when you're in Houston we can grab some authentic tex mex?
I love hosting too!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on the new furniture. I am SO BAD at putting things together.
Ah! McAlisters is my favorite too! I eat it at least once a week and I am OBSESSED with their honey mustard! I crave it, it's that bad!
ReplyDeleteSo, I hope y'all have a blast at your Blate! Hate I can't be there!
I cannot wait to see more pictures and hear about the second Blate! And I'm like your Hubs. I judge Mexican places on two things - green sauce and the rice. Peas and carrots do not belong in Spanish rice.
ReplyDeleteHappy Friday!
My sister used to work at McAlister's when she was in high school. She loves that place so much! They do have some super awesome honey mustard! Can't wait til tomorrow!!!
ReplyDeleteI haven't been to McAlisters in years, but it is so good! I need to get back there.
ReplyDeleteHave fun with your blate!!
Happy pre-anniversary! How fun. :)
