wander.

Wow, this week was jammed pack for my husband and me.  We are very excited to have a bit of down time this weekend (but not going to lie, we also have a few fun plans with friends).  I'm very much looking forward to wandering about with my husband.  Any exciting weekend plans for you?

words for friday.

Thanks to everyone for checking out my post yesterday on HelloXOXO.  I'm really excited to be a monthly contributor.  Also, a very Happy Friday to you all.  Here are just a few words that have really resonated with me this week.

sweet dreams.

Well, I survived yoga on Friday, and guess what?  I'm going back again today for more.  I actually really enjoyed it.  Uhhh, I must mention that it was SO much harder then I remembered, but in a good way.  The teacher was amazing, which really helped me and I never felt pressured to go beyond what my body was allowing me to.  I'll keep you posted on my future yoga adventures.  My husband and I also spent the weekend reorganizing our bedroom.  It was needed in a big way, and we purged so many things.  Doesn't that feel great?  So now I'm back to fantasizing about a few updates our room may need.  All of these rooms are so different, but I love them all for different reasons.  The moroccan wedding blanket, that colorful rug, those striped pillows, and that lucite side table...are all amazing.

yoga.

Happy Friday!  Well I'm off to yoga this morning and I'm a bit nervous.  I did yoga a long long long time ago (college days), but have only tried it once since then.  Everyone I know who practices, seriously can't say enough great things about it, so I'm joining a friend today to give it a try again.  Ekkkk, wish me luck.

a new week.

I just returned from a family reunion where I spent the entire weekend snuggling my nephews, niece, and my cousin's kids.  Long chats with my mom, siblings, cousins, aunts, uncles, and my grandma were just what my heart needed.  It was so much fun and I really wasn't ready for it to end.  But Monday is here and while I day dream about my relaxing weekend with family, I'm also excited for the week ahead.  Time to tackle some home projects (I'm looking at you closet...eeeekkk!) and I'm making time to celebrate these summer days (which means I'm going to have to take a trip over a bridge to find some sunshine).  Happy Monday.
