Where I'm at Wednesday


How is this the last week of July?!  I know it's been a busy month full of fun but that doesn't make it any less shocking that it's over.

We celebrated Brielana's First Birthday.
I feel like she was just born.  Guess that's "mom denial".

We checked some items off of our Summer Bucket List:
  1. Day at the Beach
  2. Made Strawberry Ice Cream
  3. Made S'mores
I read 3 books: The Courage Tree  by Diane Chamberlain, The Ice Queen by Alice Hoffman and  Squirrel Seeking Chipmunk by David Sedaris (and the only reason I picked this out is because Ian Falconer (of Olivia fame) did the illustrations!  So bizarre and disturbing.) I want to read more of Chamberlain, she wove a great story.  And we already know how much I love Hoffman.  Let's be friends on Goodreads, shall we?


I haven't missed an episode of HGTV's Beach Flip.  That's pretty impressive for me considering I don't get much TV time.  And even if I have to watch it a few days later OnDemand, it's still a win!  I'm calling it now, Lucy and Daphne #SouthWind.

I have been on a fish-eating jag: tuna on my salads: 
And fish tacos:

And I've been channeling my inner Andrea, wearing a patterned ruffle tank with my TOMS.  I'm thinking this would also be a great Fall outfit with a scarf and boots.  


And fun patterned pants:
Gray is my new favorite neutral, it's not as harsh as black and brown makes me look off, for lack of a better word.

Looking forward to getting more items checked off our Summer Bucket List!  August, here we come!  But, I'll be missing that first-year-with-a-newborn-newness and milestones.  It was definitely wonderful while it lasted.

Linking up with Mel, Shay and Sheaffer.

    You're coming right along with your bucket list! But, how is August happening in just a few days?! Where did this summer go?!
    My husband and I have been glued to Beach Flip, too! Those kind of shows always have us thinking we'd be able to pull off some sort of renovations of our own...
    Those patterned pants are awesome, and gray is one of my favorite neutrals!!

    Love that purple flower top, such a pretty outfit, perfect for fall with some boots and a scarf.

    Cute pants! Gray is pretty much the best color in the whole entire world. I own WAY to much gray and black. Oh well. It seems I live in gym clothes and bathing suits anyways.

    I can not believe that July is pretty much gone, what the heck!!!
