Hello friends! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend celebrating Easter or Passover, as the case may be. We hosted my family here at our house and it was a wonderful afternoon.

Pretty Spring Dresses
I’m a dress girl, through and through — although this winter was especially brutal and forced me to gravitate toward my leggings and jeans because — well — warmth. Ultimately I was okay with this. In fact, I found I was actually enjoying wearing jeans again, which was a bit of a shocker to everyone […] Read more…
Weekend Randomness

On the other hand, I guess I’m just not looking forward to the whole ‘back to work’ thing tomorrow. This is typical for me […] Read more…
