Friday Flair Link Party // Hello all! Have you missed me this week? (yea, I know… not really, you probably didn't know that I was gone.) If you've been following my Instagram feed, you would know that I'm in Chicago for the Chicago Auto Show. I've been here as a guest of Nissan North America for their Social Media Preview and I've been having a grand time. No, I'm not going to all of a sudden become a car blogger, but I do have a love and appreciation for cars. It was fun to see the glitzy launch of the new Toyota Tundra this morning, the Kia Cadenza and Forte. I really loved the Nissan Nismo line… a girl can dream, right? The whole trip has started a new thought process for me… How involved are we in the decision making process when it comes to buying our cars? What's most important to us has Moms? You know, the ones who spend hour upon hour driving the kiddos around. Are cars just something to get us from point A to point B or are they more important? New vs. used? Is style more important than function? Purchase vs. Leasing? There are so many things to think about when making a vehicle purchase for your family. Believe it or not, the car makers are listening. They want to know what's most important to you. They even have a special women's day at the Chicago Auto Show on Tuesday, February 12th. They will be having special activities that day just for those of us ladies. If you are close to Chicago, this is a fun activity to attend, the whole family will love it! The show open on Saturday the 9th and runs throught the 18th.
Now, on to our inspiration photo for this week's Friday Flair. I found this fun cake topper idea for Valentine's Day from The Paper Pony…

Isn't that cute? I would love to have that on my Valentine's Day table for my family this year. Visit Raya and see how she made this fun topper. Now let's move onto the party so we can see what you've been up to these last couple of weeks! Last weeks Friday Flair was prempted by my ULTIMATE Getaway Giveaway. I hope you all had a chance to enter, the giveaway is still running so… you still have time if you haven't entered yet!
Let's get the link party started…

I hope you are enjoying the car show. We bought a new car about 18 months ago after our old Cavalier practically would not run any more. It was a fine car living in the city (Chicago), but now that we live in Colorado and are starting a family, we needed something more reliable in the snow and easier to get in and out of with a carseat. We purchased a Jeep Liberty 70th anniversary edition. My husband and I both love it! It's girly enough because it does not feel like I am driving a truck, but manly enough with the 4-wheel drive. Plus it was our first new car so it smelled devine for almost a year. Wish I could attend the event on the 12th! Sounds like fun. Cheers and thanks for hosting!
