rustic...

these pics are preparing me for my weekend in the mountains....hopefully, that won't be the only way to shower....although, it is quite cute...i'm just more of an indoor shower kind of girl :)

soooo pretty.

sometimes a picture stops me dead in my tracks....hence the beautiful stairwell with that amazing soft blue wall....it was the inspiration for this post and one of my favorite color palettes. i think all of these pics combined would make one heck of a house....i'd move right in.

it's friday....

on a regular basis, you will find me casual: tank tops, shorts, tunics, jeans, gold sandals, flip flops (we live at the beach, rainbows are a must), and big earrings -i know, they really don't fit in this category but i always wear them or a big bracelet. but i think i would look killer in those heels...i mean what girl wouldn't want to wear those?!! i'll even ditch my rainbows to put those on....ha!

have a great weekend...

hello fall.

is it fall?? i can't believe that summer is "officially" over....although you would never know that here by the weather. the only way you could tell it's fall is by the leaves covering my yard....anyone want to volunteer to rake them??

wow.

we literally just rolled into town about 45 minutes ago....i rushed in to put on tay's first day of school outfit- wet a brush to try and tame her crazy hair...i dumped the kennel, cooler, fishing rods, suitcases, and food in the middle of the floor so i could pack tay back in the car to get her to school on time. we went into the classroom and played baby dolls. i acted like i was looking for a bottle for the babies and snuck out of the door.... now i am back home staring at this mess i have created, hoping tay is having a wonderful first day of school and trying to inhale my coffee as fast as i can b/c i am so tired....seriously, is it only 9:30??
