It's time for another edition of TWI! Link up with me or Syndal to join in!
This weekend, I started it off with a bang (err, or lack thereof!) by getting a haircut. You can barely tell, except the ends are so much healthier now. Shoutout to Jess who introduced me to Casey, my new Waco hairstylist. Love it!
This weekend, I had a glorious Friday evening date with RP3. First, we went to grab drinks with TPH and my friend Sarah. Then, we went back to my place to make dinner for Drew and Paige. We had a fun night laughing with friends, telling stories, and just being. My favorite type of evenings!
This weekend, I went to watch Paige perform in one of her MA recitals. You can't tell what she looks like here because there were so many lights on her, but she was stunning in a gorgeous long navy dress with her hair pulled back. She's playing the piccolo in the photo below, which she also did flawlessly. I'm always in awe of those with musical talent, and Paige blew me away!
This weekend, I gave Drew (Paige's boyfriend and RP3's bestie) my lab coat that I haven't used since my neuroanatomy class in fall of 2009. Feast your eyes on quite possibly the best photograph ever:
This weekend, I participated in my third Habitat for Humanity build. I wore entirely too many clothes, as my first two builds were actually setting the house frame. This time, I was inside and got to do a job I rock at: caulking. You can thank my dad for my awesome handiwoman skills, and since attention to detail is one of my main attributes, it was the perfect job for me. I caulked three door frames (both sides of the door, all cracks, nail holes, and the frame to the wall) in three hours. I'm sure a pro takes like, 20 minutes, but I wanted to make it nice. I'm pretty sure the messier you end up after doing work, the better you did it.
After my Habitat build (and while my hands were still covered in caulk), this weekend, I went on a photoshoot with Stephanie and her husband Mathew. Check out these photos of this gorgeous couple:
(There was also a little hay fight, so I kind of love Stephanie's face in the second one.)
This weekend, I finally got a desk for my back room. Now I need a rug and chair! I'm thinking Pier One for the chair, but where would you suggest rugs? Help a sista out!
What'd you do this weekend? Link up and tell us!

Nice work with Habitat for Humanity! I've always wanted to volunteer with that organization. And LOVE the photo shoot! Great job! :)
Loving the desk!!
I would suggest checking out Ross/TJ Maxx first...you can sometimes find a really good deal on a sweet rug! :)
Eeeeeeee... Stephanie, Pearl, hay.... I DIE!!!!
Also, we needz to go furniture shopping together, obviously.
Love the new locks...looks very fresh! And I love the desk, I'm so into office stuff. And yay for Habitat! What a fun weekend :)
LOVE the photoshoot pictures! Great job!
I think it's great you contribute to Habitat for Humanity. What a great way to give back!
Pictures look amazing!!!
I loove a fresh haircut- even just the teeniest trim makes my hair feel so much healthier!
And AH, for Paige and the piccolo! I played flute in high school so I may have just got a tad excited ;)
Loving your new hair. It definitely looks a lot healthier & vibrant. Your photos came out fantastic too.
I'd like to point out that you have FINGERNAILS in that picture! I'm so proud....You are definitely a handy woman.
Love the hay fight photos! And I love just being too. :)
RugsUSA.com is a great place! They always have good deals, and if you watch Groupon Goods, they often have one for Rugs USA!
I highly recommend going to flash-sale websites like Joss&Main or One Kings Lane for rugs. Typically they're very high quality rugs 60 - 70% off retail! Especially if you're looking for a smaller rug--you can find a beautiful merino wool rug for less than $100. Happy hunting!
You take some great photographs! The hay fight is classic :)
I use to work for Habitat! Such a great organization and so fun building on the houses. Good for you for volunteering this weekend. Glad you had a fun date too! :)
You did awesome with the pictures, and I love that you're a master caulker ;)
Wow girl! Busy busy weekend!
Your hair is so cute! And the couple? SO cute- great pictures lovely :)
I have always thought about doing habitat for humanity but have never actually gone for it. And those are great pictures :)
Love this link up!! It sounds like you had a fun weekend!

Sounds like you had an awesome weekend. You rock at caulking! I miss the days of school where you had all those people around you to hang out with all the time. Sigh.
Happy new hair! Love a good haircut!
Sometimes allll you need is a good haircut - even if it is just a teeny tiny little bit!
And that photoshoot looks like so much fun!
Your photos are gorgeous!
Glad to hear you had yet another great date :)
What a fun weekend. :) I love the pics you took of Stephanie and Matthew. :)
such gorgeous pictures!!! stephanie and matthew are adorbs!
Your adventures with RP3 make me so excited & want to meet a man down here even more.
World Market for rugs!!! Plus if you are a member (free) you get all kinds of discounts. Maybe they don't have those in Waco?
Sounds like an awesome weekend!
Love the hay fight shots, so cute!
Love the trim! Don't they make a WORLD of difference?!
Also, PS, I started watching Revenge...you're right, it's darn good.
The pictures from the photoshoot look good! Very natural and fun. I hate when couples try too hard to look "perfect" and magazine-like in their photos.
Those pictures look great!! And for a rug, try Home Goods or Garden Ridge (do they have those in Texas??).
A hay fight sounds like fun.
