Good Morning!  I hope everyone had a nice weekend.  I took advantage of the sales this weekend and did a little shopping for myself.  We are heading to a beachy location for Spring Break, and there were a couple of pieces that I've had saved in my shopping cart that I finally hit the purchase button and made them mine, yay!  I picked up the sunnies above and ordered the floppy hat and metallic sandals.  Love all these fun getaway pieces inspired by this colorful Tory Burch book.  I love, love, love her style and her resort wear is always so dreamy.  But since I'm usually a bargain shopper, I definitely do more drooling over her gorgeous line, then purchasing it...but every once in a while during a sale I'll splurge on a piece that I know will be in my wardrobe for a long time.

I also think this dress is really cute and that I could wear it several different ways on our trip.  And I ordered this shirt to wear with my favorite shorts for the spring as well.  So, do you have plans for Spring Break?  I can't believe it's less then 3 weeks away.

Have a lovely day!

Valentine's Day Breakfast

Hi there!  Can you believe it is Valentine's Day this weekend?  My goodness the weeks are flying by!  I'm kind of excited that it falls on a weekend this year!  Grant and I don't go out on the actual day, simply to avoid the crowds.  I much rather go out another weekend or during the week and enjoy a less chaotic dinner together.  Although Valentine's Day often focuses on couples, I like to involve Preston and Lyla in the holiday as well and I usually get them a small little something and just try to make the day special.  Because it falls on a weekend this year, I thought it would be fun to do a Valentine's Day breakfast.  Nothing too fancy...strawberry muffins, heart shaped pancakes or waffles and fruit.  Orange juice for the kiddos and maybe a mimosa for the adults and everyone wins ;)

Valentine's Day is the perfect time to shower your loved ones with little tokens of affection.  And I think some of the most memorable holidays are those spent at home celebrating with your favorite people.  So a special breakfast at home sounds perfect!
