I've been working some extended evenings and weekend hours lately, so I was able to take a comp day today to get a little break and spend some time with family. Kevin took a little time off in the morning too which was nice! We decided to go to the Houston Aquarium since Harper loved the Toronto one and the massive ones at Atlantis. I had ...
Love List
I'm trying to be more consistent with these posts. I love a good round-up of favorite products, clothing, accessories and other random items and projects I happen to be enamoured with at the moment. The first is this dress that just came in from Gap. I tried it on as soon as I opened the package this evening and I was SO thrilled with the fit ...
Our Weekend…
Our Saturday started with an early AM play date with sweet little Cami, Amanda and Ben. The girls had a tea party, colored, ate way too many snacks and took turns drumming. We enjoyed donut holes, kolaches and so.much.coffee. Cami was wearing the most gorgeous headband made by her super-crafty mama (her blog has lots of great DIYs!) ...
Austin Retreat
Happy (almost) Friday! I've had a little bit of a crazy work week that also involved a quick trip to Austin for our annual team retreat, so I thought I'd share a few snaps. Though we had two cold and rainy days in Austin, the trip was productive and we even squeezed in a little fun, starting our day with a scavenger hunt via Watson ...
Recent Purchases…
Hello and happy Monday! Today I'm sharing a round-up of recent purchases. I mentioned in my weekend post that we went to Anthropologie and we picked up another long-legged bird to add to our collection. Meet Olivia the Ostrich. She's fluffy, long-necked and super cute. Harper's obsession with puppies has reached epic levels and so of course ...
Our Weekend…
It was finally (after two weeks of cold, rainy and gloomy weather) warm and sunny this weekend and we took advantage of that and spent a ton of time outdoors. One major bonus of living in Houston is our mild winters. Enjoying time outdoors sans snowsuit in January is pretty awesome. Outside time + toddlers = happiness and nice long naps. There's ...
IKEA’s RITVA Curtains in Our Open-Concept Living Room
The story of these curtains is way longer than it should be. Go to store, buy curtains, install. I wish. It all started when I saw my friend Leslie's home for the first time. She has the most gorgeous home (she should seriously become an interior designer) and I saw her curtains and I told her how much I loved them. To my surprise, she told me ...
Love List
Switching it up today and sharing five things I'm loving lately. I used to do these posts way more often and miss them! MAC Prep + Prime Highlighter in “Radiant Rose” Y’all, I’ve only been using this highlighter for a few weeks, and it has officially made its way to the “best under eye highlighter ever” list. I started using pink-toned under ...
Our Weekend…
A couple of months ago I saw Marissa's new haircut and I just loved it. It prompted me to message her to find out who cut her hair. It turns out that her stylist is someone I've actually known for years--- she was a fellow stylist and friend of my old hairdresser, David (who now lives in Italy), so I used to see her every time I went in! I even ...
Blackout
Happy Tuesday! Lately, I've been wearing my "uniform" of skinny pants, a dress shirt and blazer to work. Monday's outfit was a take on that look--- it's so simple with the solid black tunic blouse and slim pants--- but the gorgeous hot pink necklace from bip and bop and the faux leopard calf hair shoes add just enough pop. top- ...
