Welcome to the new home of High Five for Friday – hosted by Tif, Katie, Caitlin, and Della! A HUGE thank you to Lauren at Lauren Elizabeth, who has been hosting this link up forever! And thanks to all of you who have decided to continue to pop over to join us! You can read more about our announcement here. And if you’re new to the blog altogether, you can head over here to get to know me a little better.
Fellow bloggers – ready to join in the link up AND be automatically entered to win a $!00 Target giftcard? Scroll to the end of this post to read what to do. If you’re a #H54F regular, it’s business as usual, and you know what to do!
3. I FINALLY GOT TO HAVE DINNER AT THE LOCAL CHEESECAKE FACTORY! In case you’ve not kept up on my Cheesecake Factory saga, let me catch you up to speed. One opened in Lex in October. I tried to go for my birthday in November, but it was a 2.5 hour wait. This week, I finally got to try it out! I went out with a group of friends I hadn’t seen in a while, and we had an AWESOME time! I bypassed my normal red velvet cheesecake to try out the cookie dough one, and I as not disappointed. Yum!

HOW TO LINK-UP
Fellow bloggers – ready to join in the link up? In case there’s anyone new to the game, here’s what you do! Just write a blog post about 5 things that made this week awesome! It could be 5 memories, 5 pairs of shoes you wore, 5 “good job” comments you got, or 5 pieces of chocolate you scarfed down when no one was looking.
Add your link to your blog post down below. Then be sure to link back to the link up by grabbing the H54F button!
Caitlin, Tif, Della and I want to put our own spin on H54F. We are planning on visiting each and every one of you and saying hello! We want to get to know you all, and find some new blogs. Each week we’ll be featuring one of you as our blog pick of the week.
Also, bloggers, you have a chance to enter to win $100 Target gift card! (open to US residents only – sorry!!) Simply link up to this week’s H54F, and then we will randomly select one winner using a random number generator. Contest ends at 11:59 p.m. EST on Friday, January 9, 2015. By linking up, bloggers agree to the full terms and conditions, which can be found here.
Thanks for stopping by! If you’re a veteran H54F-er, we hope you’ll continue to link-up. If you’re new to the H54F game, we hope you’ll join in every week! Happy reading!

Congrats on being the new host – that is so awesome! And wow, 12 years – that is so awesome! Hope you have a fab weekend 🙂
Yay – congrats on taking this over, so excited for you guys! I'm super excited for the Lilly collaboration too though I think I'd die if your Kate suggestion came to fruition!! Haha And I love that you still celebrate your "coupleversary" – I totally do that too and actually we also just celebrated 12 years together this past October – it's crazy to think about how quickly time flies! Hope you have a great weekend! xoxo, – M @ The Sequin Notebook

I love the food at the Cheesecake Factory but always too full to have cheesecake as well. I often get it to go so I don't miss out completely.
