Lets dish. We had a great weekend, did you? My parents and sister were here plus my in-laws officially moved here this week so we had a crazy busy weekend!
Remember when I told you about my in-laws Estate sale? Well this rug is one of the pieces we were lucky enough to score. We were originally planning to put it in our dining room but decided she was more Den worthy. What do you think? I am pretty smitten with her, pretty amazing how a rug can transform a room.
I had the best time with my sister. Seriously she is my best friend and I love hanging out her. We definitely didn't plan to both wear matching orange shirts. Sisters Intuition I guess.
My parents brought Sterling one of my old CareBears and he is obsessed with it. My mom saved everything from when we were kids which is kind of awesome. The Vintage Toys are so much better. You can see the CareBear peeking out below.
Did a little shopping with my mom and scored these Dolce Vita Sandals at TJMaxx, yes I am serious. $29.99. (Don't judge my giant size 9.5 feet).
Mom also treated me to this perfect silk shirt from Banana Republic. The back is so cute. Sported it with my blush jeans this weekend. And yes that is a giant stain at the bottom. Silk shirts with a two year are a bad idea but I refuse to sacrifice my style now that I am a Mommy....
Luckily this is the type of silk that can be washed not drycleaned.

We caught another awesome sunset and Sterling saw his first Fireworks at The Yacht Club on Saturday.
I have a new favorite drink. The good Old Greyhound. Only it must be made with fresh squeezed, not bottled Grapefruit Juice. It is so refreshing.
Cooked the New York Times Recipe for Spicy Quinoa, Cucumber, and Tomato Salad. and it was awesome! Recipe HERE.
My little man is growing up so fast. How do I slow down the time???
Doesn't he totally look like a fraternity boy in the first picture? Just chilling with his crazy hair.
Have a great Monday. Looks like its gonna be a rainy day here spent indoors!

Love the rug! Looks awesome in there. Cannot get enough of the persians! Also, no judgment. I have a 9.5 to 10 sized foot. Amazon woman over here. No. Glamazon I will call us!
That rug and whole living room set up is gorgeous! Tres jealous :)
Oh my goodness I really love that rug. I have been thinking about updating my entire living room, but maybe instead of dropping all that money I will just buy a rug. Love the pictures, and as usual your outfits are too cute. xo
Ok Natalie, where do I begin? Love the top, the sandals (tj maxx is the best!) for that price? no brainer, what a steal! Your little guy looks sooo much older on that photo of him on the bench, he's so cute!
So glad you had a great weekend! I love the rug (and spy the same plastic golf club in the background as Henry has! Maybe they can catch 9 holes while we hang at the beach next month?! Ha!) Love the BR shirt and need to try a greyhound now! :)

Natalie- I have only been following your blog for a few weeks, and keeping finding your finds in my closet/home. I just bought that top from Banana- as well as the throw rug that you mentioned that week.

Must have that rug! It's stunning!
I'm so jealous of your rain! I wish we were getting some in Phoenix! And girl, absolutely no judgement on the shoe size or the stain...I'm anywhere from a 9 to a 10(!) and if I had a dollar for everything that ended up on my clothing...(c: Fun filled weekend with sister and family = HEAVEN in my book (c:
