#PLTturns2 (the party)

#PLTturns2 

and we had a party!!

I am a very big believer in parties and celebrations!

even if it only means a glass of champagne on the couch, or dinner with family.

everything worth celebrating, should be celebrated.

(and almost everything is worth celebrating)

Although this was in fact a PLT Birthday Celebration,

it is more a way for me to thank my family, friends, and employees.

ps. my employees are family + friends.

Austin Bradshaw (find him on FB)

the very very best local musician. ever.

_____

I have said it before, and I really mean it, but none of this is possible without:

1. God and his amazing grace.

2. My parents and their faith in me.

3. All my family & friends and their wonderful support. 

so I won't hit ya with a real sappy post,

just please know, my gratefulness is real for you.

 _____

always, always 

good times with those people!

#PLTturns2

so I want to be very apparent and genuine when I say that my life & my store is 

not absolutely perfect.

the struggle is really real with trying to portray a genuineness through social media.

so when I say that this past week was WONDERFUL and some of the busy days every,

I mean it.

but please know that I didn't get much sleep,

I was really grouchy some days,

and didn't even wash my hair on others...

___________

eeeeek!

PLT turned 2 this past Monday.

and like any normal birthday celebration, I made sure it lasted a solid week.

we had sales/specials/fun events every single day

_____

I am oh so grateful for all the girls coming in to help

paint/steam/vacuum/etc. 

So Chocolate in Kingwood was our first "treat table"

(those macaroons are real good)

_____

Telly with Face:Provocateur came and taught a super fun and informative make up lesson.

small pic on the right, but I am really loving our "flower crown" in the dressing room.

Blair always makes my design dreams come true.

_____

we started our Kid's Line this past week.

So many cute kids from 3-14 came shopping for "kid cut" styles.

_____

 I love that PLT's bday gets celebrated like it is my birthday lol

 yay for flowers

_____

In the midst of all the Birthday/Tax Free fun,

Gabby & Paige had their last day working for me.

They are headed off to college.

such a bittersweet thing: I will miss them, but they have so much fun ahead.

_____

Stacey with Stacey's Sweets was in the store Saturday/Sunday 

with the amazing "cookie balls". It is like half cookie dough/half cookie and insanely addicting. 

_____

"last day" selfies have become a  tradition:

 

 this year      //      last year

my sweet girls (that are my current employees) surprised me with this adorable print.

what a fun birthday gift for the store! love it
