Hi folks! Happy Monday!

I’m currently recovering from an amazingggg weekend. I had the best bridal shower and bachelorette party a girl could ask for!

I’ve been spending the day looking at all of the pictures from the weekend, and I would give anything to live it all over again! I have the best family and friends. I’m one lucky gal.

Stay tuned later in the week for pictures of the weekend! The parties were something else…fabulous doesn’t even begin to describe them. Thank you thank you thank you to everyone who helped make this weekend happen! I can’t even begin to tell you how much it meant to me. I’m one happy gal right now.

decor, decorating, details, family, home, love

Good morning friends! Today, I thought I would share a few details from around the new house! We still have a ways to go on the bigger picture (hello new couch and tv!), but we love how these little details are things we’ve collected along the way!

Over the holidays, as we got holiday cards from our friends and family, we clipped them up on the mantel. Well, come February, I was still not ready to see them go. So, I’ve just been slowing switching them out with pretty pieces of mail. I’m loving the extra touch it gives our mantel.

My dad made us this gorgeous table and we decided it is the focal point of our house. Our house is an open concept ranch and this is at the center. We absolutely love it. Thanks, dad!!

Matt spotted this picture frame, sans backing, at an antique mall so we decided it would be adorable to frame a small chalkboard space. He is so crafty. I love it.

So–I won this Stone Textile pillow via Liz at Grey and Scout and I am obsessed. So gorgeous. Plus, paired with this throw–perfection.

This pouf defines my happy. I bought it about a year ago in anticipation of the moment I would place it in our house. It was the first item I moved in. The hubby hates it, so it resides in my lair, the office, nuzzled in close proximity to my stationery collection. Obviously.

Happy Thursday!
Erin

Life Lately…

brunch, family, friends, Life, valentine's day

Hello, dear readers! I hope you’re all recovering well from a snazzy Valentine’s day and a relaxing (and/or crazy fun) weekend!

We laid MAJORLY low on V-day evening to catch up on season 2 of House of Cards. Ummm… holy crap??! Can we please talk about this show?! My boys kept me company on the couch while I did some serious stressing about it.

On Saturday morning I had a girls brunch with some fabulous friends of mine from school. A morning brunch turned into four and a half hours… we blame it on the bottomless mimosas! Catching up with girlfriends is so therapeutic.

Tad, mom, and I met with the wedding cake group on Sunday… I was positively giddy when I left! I can’t wait for the big day! I try to wear my sparkly shoes to all of the wedding activities/meetings. They just always seem to match my wedding mood!

I’ve been catching up on my snail mail lately thanks to Ashley at One Fine Day! These pen pals are too fun!

We stayed up entirely too late last night watching more House of Cards episodes, so we’re moving kiiiiinda slow this morning.

However, like Tad said last night, “If you’re not wobbling in on a Monday, you’re not livin’!”

Happy Monday!

family, olive us, video

Remember this amazingly talented family we talked about here, here, and here?

Well, they’re back. And cuter than ever. (In case you missed it before, read about this adorable family here!)

This season they’ve totally hit the spot… their videos are so creative, unique, and spark the innocence and creativity in all of us. (Get it? Olive Us? All of us? Love it.)

These kids. Man, they are destined for big things.

Click here to see their latest video! Maude takes a trip to Honfleur Harbor where she takes in its beauty, shares the history of its artists, and begins her own Honfleur painting.

Can we just move to France and become artists already? My painting skills are about at the level of finger painting right now but practice makes perfect, amIright?

Okay who wants to buy me a paint set?

Happy Monday! *Stay warm!

Natalie

*It’s -10 in Kansas City right now. I’m dying.

Top two images gathered from their website!

family, Life

I’m currently sitting in the Kansas City airport waiting for a flight to another residency interview. Of course my flight is delayed, meaning I’ll miss my connecting flight.

Needless to say, I’ve got the mean reds today.

My family and I had a fabulous week in Muncie, IN visiting my grandma and in Columbus, OH visiting Erin and Matt. I already miss them all terribly. I could have stayed forever! When the real world hits you in the face Monday morning after an amazing weekend, it seriously hurts. So over it.

Anywho… enough of my grumpiness already. Here’s a little glimpse into my life lately!
