Sunday Social

August 5, 2012

I am back this week linking up with Neely and Ashley for the Sunday Social.

This Week’s Questions are all about Fall…

1. What is your favorite Fall activity?
I LOVE shopping for school supplies!  I LOVE paper clips and pens and pencils and folders and files and notebooks and calendars, etc. I don’t know why I love these supplies so much. I love to look as if I am all tidy and organized even though I’m really not.



2. Do you follow a football team? if so which one and why?
I follow the Dallas Cowboys.  Not because I like them (or football for that matter), but because I live the Dallas area and that is what we do around here.



3. What is something fun about Fall in your area?
It’s all about football in Texas.  Dallas Cowboys of course, but also high school football.  Everything is BIG in Texas!  It’s fun to see everyone decked out in their Cowboys gear.


I personally prefer to skip the football games and head out to the Junior League holiday gift shows in the fall.  This is where I usually start my holiday shopping.  I can usually find some different and unique gifts at these shows.

4. Fav Fall outfit staples?
Ballet flats are the “go to” shoe for me.  I have them in lots of different colors and textures. I love wearing them with jeans and a cute top.


5. Thing you are looking forward to most about this coming Fall season?
This fall will be full of activity at our house.  My oldest daughter dances for her college on the dance team.  Her college is in Dallas so we will be able to attend her events.  Next daughter is a cheerleader and high school senior.  It will be fun to go to pep rallys, football games and other senior activities.  My son is on his high school varsity golf team.  Most parents don’t go to the tournaments, but I may sneak in a few this year.

I will be attending my first Blogger’s conference this fall too!  I am excited to learn tons of information at the SITS Girls Bloggy Boot Camp in Dallas.  Anybody reading this going too?



6. Favorite Fall holiday? Traditions?
I am a Thanksgiving kind of gal.  I love to cook for my family because this is one of the easiest meals to prepare, yet others think I have worked so hard.  I am a vegetarian so I don’t eat turkey.  However, give me a plate of side items and I am in heaven!  We usually have lots of different pies too, which I always manage to find room for as well.

Won’t you join us for Sunday Social’s?!  Click on the link below and get next week’s questions!

    I loved this!

    I have a question for you. I love flats too, but I don’t know what to wear with them. I can’t stand to go barefoot in them, but I think nylon knee highs are dated looking. Is my only option those skin-colored footies? They always seem to show when I see them on other people.

    Stacie, I just recently found your blog, and I love it! What are the brand of those ballet flats pictured? I love them! I have just spent twenty minutes Googling Ballet flats with pink label….I decided it would just be easier to ask you!

    I will keep your family in my prayers.

I enjoy dressing up a little for dinner when we’re I enjoy dressing up a little for dinner when we’re cruising. Do you do the same?

Both of my outfits in this video are extremely comfortable, wrinkle resistant, travel friendly and versatile.

Outfit 1: The Tillie Top and Lolly pants are 2 of my favorite pieces that I often pair together. They both come in solids and some beautiful prints as well as different fabrics.✨

Outfit 2: The Delphine Dress is perfection with its flattering fit. I love the Black and Red Grand Plaid print.

By adding a few accessories I make each outfit my own. Don’t you just love that about accessories?!💖 

I’m telling you, if you haven’t tried @judeconnally clothing yet, you need to asap!

Dubrovnik, Croatia is a beautiful city filled with Dubrovnik, Croatia is a beautiful city filled with such interesting history. Here’s a small peek at our day here. 

We started with a walking tour of the old town, took a little glass bottom boat ride, had a scrumptious lunch and bought a few souvenirs. It was a great day all around!

Traveling sets my soul on fire. How about you?

Rain or shine, the excursions must go on! Unfortu Rain or shine, the excursions must go on!

Unfortunately, our tour of Corfu, Greece was a bust today because we had the rainiest day here. But the good news is that the sun is now shining and it should remain that way for the remainder of our cruise.☀️

My sweatshirt, packable jacket and rain hat are 3 of my best travel pieces and they all came in handy today. Let me know if you want the details.😉

Have you been following my trip in my feed and stories? Be sure to hit my highlights too as I try to save everything there.😁

Today, we stepped way back in time with a tour of Today, we stepped way back in time with a tour of the Ancient Olympia Archeological Site, where the Ancient Olympics were born.

And no day would be complete without a Greek Salad with delicious fresh Feta cheese. Yum!

Our first day in Greece has been perfect. We slep Our first day in Greece has been perfect.

We slept in this morning after about 20 hours of travel and then hit the ground running in tourist mode.

The Acropolis and Parthenon were within walking distance to our hotel. It was incredible to see and hear the history. It was crowded, but probably not as bad as summertime.

All of our meals here were delicious, the people were friendly, the city is clean and felt safe.

Athens gets an A+ rating from us.💗

Tonight we get on our cruise ship, so be sure to follow along if you’re interested in ancient Greece, the Adriatic and Venice.
