Weekend Moments: Summertime at Its Best

By Leave a Comment

Happy Monday! I hope you had the most marvelous weekend. We had a relatively easygoing couple of days accented by a few noteworthy events. We (of course) did the usual mundane, adultish activities: Friday night Target trips, deciding on new lamp shades and bill paying. These seemingly boring activities all eventually turned entertaining…we were near tears from reading greeting cards in Target and deciding on which lamp shade made the best hat. Living with your best friend is fun. 
We also had a wedding to attend this weekend, which was lovely. Any excuse to get dressed up, right? Other than that, we took our dog child to a local petting zoo (not a great idea by the way), ate delicious summer foods & treats, and bought some cleverly designed notebooks on one of our Target trips. I truly love their stationery section! I would highly recommend checking it out.
Have a wonderful week! And in the words of Ellen, “Be kind to one another!”

It’s almost the weekend! I’ve always loved Thursday for that reason. There’s always so much hope! Tonight I was browsing around Etsy looking for new shops and I came across eight lovely options. These were my favorite picks from each shop, but they all had other great offerings. Be sure to check out the cake topper shop–it’s easily my new addiction. Would it be wrong to make cakes weekly and order a different topper for each occasion? I hope not because that’s my current plan!

I hope you enjoy & happy (Etsy) shopping!

Road Trippin’

Sweater: Tobi (similar here) || Leggings: Zella via Nordstrom

Our spontaneous road trip led us to Jackson, Yellowstone & the Tetons! It was such an adventure. We wanted somewhere cooler than 100 degrees and we found it! We saw the usual sights, including some exciting animal sightings. Husband was literally two feet away from a buffalo out the side of our car! Road trips are always about being comfortable, but that also means I get to be creative when it comes to my travel clothes! This slouchy sweater is amazingly comfortable and was easy to dress up for dinner in Jackson later that evening. And the leggings? Well, they’re leggings and Zella. You can’t really go wrong there!

Weekend Moments: The Holiday Weekend

The long holiday weekend was exactly what we needed! We were able to relax and spend a lot of time together. The heat kept us mostly indoors, but we were able to enjoy fireworks that evening. And by enjoy I mean we attempted to keep our pup from having a heart attack. The poor thing was having the most difficult night. She loved watching the fireworks, but the sounds were just too much!
We were extremely spontaneous on Friday and decided to take a mini road trip to Jackson and Yellowstone. We had been trying to think of nearby places that wouldn’t be over 100 degrees and Wyoming seemed perfect. We were able to get some fresh air, see some wildlife up close and check out Jackson. It was so relaxing and lovely. I highly recommend it as a weekend getaway. Have an awesome week!
