I just found a woman on Etsy who deconstructs kimonos for their vintage fabrics. I want all of them. Find them here.

Eric says no...

...but I say maybe.

Endless Summer

2 month countdown begins...

I have a blog!

Unfortunately, Facebook has made me a lazy blogger. I need to step away from that little internet vortex...

Kim graduated this past month, and Kelsey just turned 16. All the little girls are young women now. Time and I have a different relationship these days, and it's always one upping me.

Graduation weekend, I stole some pictures from Kim's bulletin board to scan. After a recent iPhoto crash and burn, I have new appreciation for the real thing.

Here are some of my favorites, the first two belong to Kim, the last one is a picture of my mom that I've had on my wall for years.

What lovely women they all are!

The end to my four day weekend and an addiction I didn't need.

Ah, Monday - Sunday... which one are you again? Four day weekends are the best.

After a whirlwind trip to Norfolk, VA, serious time-zone shifting and a Jäger bender, I was happy to be home on Friday.
Of course the weekend went by too damn fast, but it was full.

Grease on Saturday and and Forecast on Sunday with these two lovely ladies. Highlights of the show included Moth Love and Frocky Jack Morgan. I'm a fool for a bright red feather.

Unfortunately, the show made me shoe hungry and now I've tracked down my spring shoe dream team. Why to you have to taunt me with hassle free returns Zappos!? I'm not too much of a shoe addict... I'm a girl who finds the one perfect pair of shoes and wears them every day until they fall apart. Despite the dollars, these pairs are making me want to expand my rotation.

Here's a little eye candy for the ladies; two cute numbers from Camper and a nice versatile pair of Dansko boots:






Hope you had a great weekend! Eric and I will be grilling tonight. Stop on by if you love us!

You've got to love Seth. He's masterful at making one laugh.

Ringading Spring!

Oh, how you tease...

Etsy Love: Ihamai

Looking for some high quality pillow covers - I hit the jackpot. Ihamai . Beatuiful fabrics in this Finnish Etsy store.

Marimekko too! I don't know about you but I am so grateful and excited for spring. These prints will bring on the sunshine even in some of the rainier days to come.





Saturday. Bonnie and I had breakfast at Toast (delicious) and made a trip to Ikea, and we probably shouldn't be left alone in a place like that - but we found some amazing fun things.

What a wonderful weekend. Thank you sunshine!
