Weekend Recap

Although we both had work up to our eyeballs this weekend, we still found some time to enjoy our precious weekend time together.

Recap includes: dinner date at Umami (FINALLY went there are we are in love with it), soccer game for the husband, stopped by the nursery to find some plants for our place, lots of Friday Night Lights watching (our current entertainment obsession), went to MILK and got the yummiest ice cream bar & sandwich, and just plain enjoyment while being together.

These days, we live for the weekends.

The Best Remedy

Yesterday, I woke up to sun beaming through my windows and my room's temperature already a little warm. 

It felt just like an August morning. 

I checked the weather on my phone and it said 78 degrees!

So I decided to take a little study break and head down to the beach.

It was just what I needed. 

 

I could not get over how gorgeous it was. I even got a little sunburned - yes!!

Check out bottom right pic...yep, that's a fin. A whale's fin! Everyone all over the beach gathered in this one spot to check it out. Free whale watching from the shore:)

That whale decided to splash around and stay there for a good 20 minutes.

The tourists were going nuts, to say the least.

 I think a good beach day is the best remedy for the soul. 

And after being cooped up all hours of the day, all days of the week consumed with my schoolwork, it was exactly what I needed. :)

I am so ready for summer to start.

A Questionable Comeback

Remember long denim skirts? Huge platform shoes(i.e. chunky spice girl shoes)? Crop tops (Christiana Aguilara style)?

What about calf length skirts - sheer floral top layer? Chokers? Anklets? Jellies? Overalls? Glittered lips, eyes, body lotion, hair spray? - anyone remember roll on glitter?

We all know we wore those and thought we looked really cool in those denim skirts with our hair pulled back in butterfly clips (I loved those things), right?

Well, by the looks of it, the 90's are making a comeback.

& I'm not sure how I feel about it.

 I might need to be really convinced about the comeback of this era.

This Is For You

By Rob Ryan

I heart this month because it gives me an excuse to be extra cheesy & romantical.
