Happy Long Weekend

We're enjoying the desert and hope your long weekend is filled with happy things too. Bare feet, swimming pools, sunglasses, fresh strawberries and pineapple, BBQ's and nighttime patio fires.

A Little Advice Please...

The day after tomorrow I'm leaving town. Jer and I are headed to "Fabulous Las Vegas" to spend Memorial weekend with his family. 

My agenda for the trip: 

spend lots of time 

(1) in the pool 

(2) reading 

(3) drawing 

(4) listening to this and this. 

Sounds pretty fabulous, right? Well, I need your help. I want a really good book to read and I'm not sure what to choose. I'd like something light enough to quickly get into and want to keep turning those pages (it's vacation after all), but also heavy/well-written enough to provoke some thinking and inspiration. The Secret Life of Bees fits this description perfectly for me if that helps you narrow it down. So there you have it... your mission should you choose to accept: recommend the perfect book for my travels. Please and thank you. <3

Just The Girls

Last week when my mom was in town we had a 'girls day out'. Didgya know that House of Vintage got a photobooth? Photobooths are my favorite. I'm gonna have my very own one day... mark my words. You can come over and play in it, it will be great fun. Anyways, the point of this super duper crazy late post is to inform you that future 'girls days out' (how should I pluralize that?) will include Little One. That's right, girl parts. I can't tell you how much more fun life is now that I know. Not that it wouldn't be if I was having a boy, but knowing changes everything. Now when I think about the future of our little family I can picture more of the details. Pigtails, My Little Pony's and dance recitals. What fun.
