(Nothing but love for the weekend….)

“Life is either a daring adventure of nothing at all…” Helen Keller

We were awakened fairly early on Saturday morning from a little toddler who was ready and rearing to go…. TJ + I on the other hand went to bed on Friday evening with the anticipation of sleeping in a little Saturday morning….. best laid plans, right? Anyway, as we were all lounging around, pre-sunrise, we threw out various activities that could be fun for the day (since we knew we’d be getting an early morning start….) and ended up deciding that taking little miss on her first train ride would be a fun way to spend the morning (since she’s such a huge fan of “choo choos”). So, we packed up a few things and headed out the door for what ended up being an incredibly fun morning with the family….

 I say it all the time, but life is an adventure, the ups and the downs are what make it so. And, while I tend to try to avoid the downs (I mean, who really wants them??), looking at them as part of life’s adventures helps to put it all into perspective. While sleeping in would have been amazing, if Harper hadn’t woken up early, the day wouldn’t have unfolded as it did (or, maybe we just wouldn’t have been as exhausted at the end of the day…..???)…. and those memories wouldn’t have been made. So, as we embark on the week ahead of us, here is to embracing the adventures life has to throw at us! Have a good one friends!! xx

I made a batch of this chia seed pudding (with regular unsweetened almond milk) for the week ahead… looking forward to something a little different than eggs this week. Will also be getting back into our spin routine too… and for sure excited about that.

Abercrombie has some adorable new arrivals I thought I’d share with you… like this tie front romper, button front midi dress (love it in white), super cute stripe jumpsuit, ruffle sleeve henley (comes in lots of colors, I like the blush and stripe…), and this adorable one shoulder swimsuit (so cute!).

A few other cute, everyday basics, include this contrast sleeve top, stripe crewneck tank, pretty little embroidered swing tank, eyelet bomber jacket, stripe tiered tank, slouchy gray sweatshirt, white stripe fringe tee, and this stripe fringe top.

We’re heading to Hawaii in two weeks and I’ve found some of the cutest pieces…. like this adorable ruffle white swimsuit (the price!!), cover-up pants, mauve romper, easy throw on and go blush skirt, suuuuper cute blush stripe high waist bottoms + top, lace cover-up caftan, +  crochet tank.

For Harper I’m obsessed with this little mauve romper, stripe bell sleeve dress, and this ruffle stripe dress.
