#moeeveryday2016 week 8

day 51

I had dinner with two of my dearest friends, Carla and Niki. It was nice to catch up with them before I move. Old friends are the best!

day 52

Here is a secret about me - I love to iron.  My mom gave me this iron for Christmas and I love it so much!

day 53

Mounds of snow in KOP (King of Prussia). It totally reminded me of my Appalachian days! 

day 54

I spent the day at the Pink Palace buying Resort Fall for Palm Village Augusta! It was a fun but short trip! 

day 55

This Le Creuset cookware set makes me want to learn to cook!  

day 56

I handed over my Palm Village Asheville key to the new Assistant Manager, Carly. I will miss Asheville so much but I am so excited to open a Palm Village store in Augusta!

So this next week is pretty busy. I am packing up and moving! Stay tuned...

#moeeveryday2016 week 7

Hi Friends!! I hope you are having a good February! I have been busy. I am preparing to move. I am so excited but so busy. I have had a few moments of freaking out but I think that is completely normal, right?

day 43
No picture!
It was a good day. I traveled down to see the girls, had Mexican for lunch, and it snowed! I was suppose to help with Hadley and Harper's Valentine party in their classroom but the snow caused school to let out early. So I didn't get to help with the party. I did get to see their classroom and some of their work.  I guess that is okay. I still can't believe they are in Kindergarten. 

day 44

This is our "why did we come to the mall?" face! It was so crowded! It took us an hour to get out of the parking lot! I guess malls should be avoided the day before a holiday! (it was the day before Valentine's day!)

day 45

I got to spend Valentine's day with my favorites! It was probably the coldest day ever. I don't think it got over 25 degrees! Brrrr.

day 46

I Love Alex! She is always up for a picture of the day! We were meeting with Eleanor over scheduling and we took a quick picture while Eleanor had a phone call!

day 47

My wooden monogram arrived in the mail! It's 24" tall. Now I have to figure out what color to paint it. I plan to hang it on my wall in my new apartment. Several people suggested pink! I am leaning towards gold but pink is a close second!

day 48

This is my favorite side of the UNC vs Duke Lilly dressing room in Durham. It was the day of the big game. Sadly Carolina lost. But I still like the Tarheels the most!

day 49

Work trips are so much fun! We stayed at a hotel that is supposedly one of the most haunted places in Georgia! Nothing crazy happened while we were there!

day 50

The dressing room frames are up in the store! I can't wait to see the store come together!

I hope you had a good week! Next week I have a few work trips to take and I am looking forward to that!

The girls were at the beach getting ready to go down to play in the water! 

day 31

I love the way tree branches look against the evening sky.

Fun times with my Palm Village work family!
We had a manager's summit in Asheville for a few days. It's always nice to get to talk and catch up with other Lilly girls.

#moeeveryday2016 week 4

The fourth week of January was a whirlwind! It started with snow and I traveled to do inventory at our stores in Louisiana and Tennessee. 

day 22

On Friday morning I woke up to snow! I spent most of the day watching it snow. I love snow and this didn't disappoint! 

day 23

snow day number 2

I spent more time watching the snow and snuggled up on the couch reading! 

day 24

My superstar teaching friend, Katelyn, is trying to raise money for her students in Brooklyn. I decided it was time to make a donation. And if you are reading this I think you should too! Every dollar counts! 

Here is the link - Help Katelyn's 3rd graders

day 25

Lilly work trip. We flew to our Mandeville store (it's outside New Orleans) to help with inventory. Fun times! 

day 26

Dinner out with the Palm Village Mandeville girls! 

It was so nice to meet the girls I talk to almost everyday on the phone. These girls are so much fun! 

day 27

Fourth state of the day

I started the day in Louisiana, made a stop in North Carolina and South Carolina, and ended in Tennessee! I was one tired girl. 

day 28

After inventory on Thursday we had lunch in Knoxville with Lesa! 

week four extras...

If I drank coffee I would totally have this cup! 

 Having some fun in Mandeville's dressing room with KT! 

 It was so fun spending time with Luana in her store in Mandeville. 

 Mandeville dressing rooms. 

I love seeing all the different dressing rooms in the different Lilly stores. I can't wait to see what my dressing rooms look like in Augusta!

#moeeveryday2016 week 3

Is it just me or is January just flying by? Thank goodness! January is my least favorite month! 

day 15

 I love my Palm Village family!
Leslie wouldn't stop making noises and using funny voices! She is pretty funny and we couldn't stop laughing at her.

Day 16

 We had a "get fit in the new year" event at the shop.

day 17

I decided I would paint some furniture before I move. After several recommendations Mom and I got some Annie Sloan chalk paint. It has been so easy to paint and use. I can't wait to find more pieces to paint.

day 18

Some of my old school friends (and one favorite student) got together for dinner. This is just a few of the people that made NCE sweet! They surprised me with rolls of toilet paper. I thought that was a great gift! I will need that when I move. I am not sure if they thought it would be funny but I thought it was pretty fabulous! Ha!
(Check out the blond girl in the back photo bombing the picture! I guess she thought she was pretty funny and original!)

day 19

I spent the day at Palm Village Knoxville working with this awesome girl, KT. She is the assistant manager at the Knoxville store. The day went by so quickly and we were sad when we had to close! 

The Knoxville store has some cute dressing rooms!

day 20

It finally snowed! I have been waiting for it to snow all winter. I am happy I saw some snow before I move. Apparently it doesn't snow much in Augusta!

day 21

My Sunday afternoon project from day 17 is finally complete! I can't wait to put this in my new place in Augusta! 

I can't wait to see what week four has in store. I am traveling next week for work and we are preparing for a BIG snow storm! See you then!

Just a few of the cute guest at my going away party. We love our Lilly shifts! 

day 10

It was my last day with the girls at the "real" cabin and mountains.

The girls were loaded up and ready to go home. 

I still cry a little when I have to leave the girls or when they leave me. 

day 11

I will remember this day as the day that I was late for a staff meeting at work. boo!

day 12

Maybe I will take up golf when I move to Augusta, especially if I can have pink golf clubs!

day 13

Looking for a place to live is tough and exhausting. I had to take pictures so I could remember what I had looked at. Every place started to look the same after a while!

Day 14

A few reminders of home for my new home!
