Family Time Weekend Recap
Happy Monday all! I hope y'all aren't melting in the heat because it is MISERABLE! Today we are going to apparently break records from the heat and be at 100 with heat index way higher. Yay. This will be me for the next week: source We went to my second cousin's graduation party. I purposely wanted to arrive about 45 minutes later than the start time. You don't want to get wrangled into setting up, babysitting, etc and that happened to people arriving earlier from what I heard so smart call on my part. Also everyone is always chit chatting and we knew if there would be food it would be about the time they'd be eating...right again. We already ate so we were good to go and then shocked the sh*t out my family when we walked in. Final goal: ✔ The grad immediately popped up and came over to hug us and be a good hostess which was so cute. She's always been a very sweet kid but also a little badass. She was the only wrest...
Love the sconces too! And who wouldn't love those twiggy pencils?
ReplyDeleteAlthough I enjoy seeing your meal pics (you give me ideas for Trader Joe's), I'm liking this post too.
ReplyDeleteI've seen the twig pencils and like them also, as well as the soap dispensers from Anthropologie. I'd like my soap dispensers in a tray, rather than the wire basket.
I don't have anything that I'm crushing on - I've recently acquired some new to me items from family who is downsizing.
Hey when you get that mountain home by the lake let us know. We will all come for a blogger party. LOL
ReplyDeleteI second that! I'm still crushing on a little bowl I got from https://www.theanimalrescuesite.com store, just the perfect size for the two poached eggs I have every morning for breakfast. Yes, I'm boring, but my blue speckled bowl with a dragonfly in the bottom is not.
ReplyDeleteI HOPE I'll be crushing on the Kindle cover that should arrive from Amazon today. I'll let you know. Pink leather, anyone?
"These twig color pencils at World Market are so cute. They don't really go with any motif in the house but I can totally see them in a cool glass jar on a desk in front of the window overlooking the lake from the mountain home I don't own."
ReplyDeletelol That made me giggle! I always shop and want stuff that won't go with anything in my home, I wish I had the money to just change my whole motif. I agree, those pencils would look great in a cool glass jar on a desk in front of the window overlooking the lake from the mountain home you don't own. Mine too!
There are so many things I want - but I don't have the money or space for them. Mostly I just want to get rid of a bunch of stuff. I think I'm crushing on your non-existent mountain home a little bit though.
ReplyDeleteCool stuff!! Love the pencils! All I'm crushing on right now is the 50-70 degree temps I left behind in Colorado since we just arrived home to 102!!! BLECH!!
ReplyDeleteBy the way, fine with me if you make this a regular feature--I love seeing what cool stuff you find!
ReplyDeleteThe first part of this post made me giggle. My dad is an electrician and he took us on a tour of a new house he was wiring. It was lovely with lots of sconces around. The home builder/owner was there too and kept pointing out the beautiful scones on the wall. Yup, he called them scones too! LOL!
ReplyDeleteEverytime I go to Anthro I covet that sink set! And then I remember how much soap I have at home and I put it back. :)
ReplyDeleteLove the pencils and love seeing what catches your fancy!!
