Miscellany Monday

Miscellany Monday @ lowercase letters

Click the button to link up!

(ONE) This is my 50th post! Yeahhhhh. Today is my brother's 19th birthday! Yeahhhhh. It's my birthday week! Yeahhhhh.

(TWO) MEET SAIGA!!!



Isn't he the cutest thing? He is a 2 year old Belgian Malinois. Very tall. So sweet. The boyfriend and I rescued him. We really got so lucky. God blessed us with this sweet boy.

(THREE) It's National Pecan Pie Day. I am not a fan...but if YOU are make sure you eat some today!


(FOUR) The boyfriend and I went to a local cigar bar to listen to some Blues music, enjoy a beer or two, and smoke cigars. I am not much of a fan but I decided to finally try a cigar! This is me with my first cigar, it was Kaluha flavored. While the picture shows that I like it....I didn't. I smoked half of it. It tasted weird. I think next time I will try a vanilla one.



(FIVE) I bought tickets to see 2 concerts in August! I will be seeing Norah Jones with my mother and Brad Paisley with the boyfriend! Excited is an understatement.

(SIX) Speaking of music...I bought Jack Johnson's new CD-To The Sea (it was calling my name while I was at the Starbuck's counter) and it is SOOO good! I love that mans voice!

(SEVEN) There is nothing I look forward to more than sitting in church on a Sunday morning with my boyfriend. Hopefully one day, blog friends, you will understand why. :)

Aww I love that you rescued a puppy! Dogs are the best. <3

And my mom makes some KILLIN' pecan pie. Too bad she's 300+ miles away, otherwise I'd use today as an excuse for her to make me some!

Norah Jones is amazing! I'll bet she'll be awesome live!

Loved your miscellany today! Be sure to check out what I left you on my blog today... :]
