another successful trip!

well, we just got back from michigan and enjoyed a wonderful time with family and friends. while in grosse pointe i supported local michigan businesses instead of hitting the mall, although i will admit i stopped at staples. ha! ha!

i bought myself a few goodies a pair of pink/white stephen bonanno's to add to my ever growing stephen bonanno/jack rogers sandal collection and another adorable lilly pulitzer mug --- so cute!

can you see the hanging monkey in the blue/white section of the cup? sooooo cute!!!

also, i got up early to take part in "black friday" --- whopping 8am! no early bird deals for this cat! i needed to pick up a new wi-fi printer to replace the current wi-fi lexmark printer we have owned for less than 6 months! yes, you read that right! it's a nice printer but it runs through a scan cycle prior to printing and it's soooooo annoying!!! plus the toner doesn't last worth crap! so hopefully the new printer i bought will work out perfect!!
