I hope everyone had a super special Mother's Day. I know I certainly did.
A few snippets of life lately.
Monday after school I took the kids to Sugar Bakeshop. I had not been there in forever and forgot how amazing all their treats are. The kids were in hog heaven with their cupcakes. We sampled 4 different ones and they all were delicious. My favorite was the mint.
Last week's repeat outfit.
Potted some new plants for our front porch.
Found a new lunch I am addicted to, thanks to my friend Liz.
Lettuce wraps. Layer lettuce with mashed avocado with lemon juice and red pepper flakes + roasted white beans + hard boiled eggs + radishes. So easy and tasty.
To roast white beans- just toss in olive oil with salt and pepper and roast at 350 degrees about 20 minutes. It gives them great flavor and a bit of crunch.
This maxi dress arrived that I ordered. It is such a steal under $85 and the colors are amazing in person. This would be great for a Summer wedding or event.
Could not stop laughing at Frances as she tried to casually steal a chocolate milk at Starbucks. She looked so guilty like who me??
Friday night we ordered pizza and played games. Sterling picked Go Fish. We love our Friday pizza + game nights.
I am getting so excited about our vacation in 4 weeks! I finally busted out of my comfort zone and bought a bikini.
Saturday we went to Taylor's 3rd Birthday Party. I swear my girl Caycee hosts the best birthday parties. She gets every single detail right.
How gorgeous are the flowers??
All the ladies had a blast catching up!
I spent Sunday with the family. I hate I didn't get to spend it with my mom but grateful for these two angels.
We enjoyed a lunch picnic.
Then Matt took Sterling to go swim since our pool just opened and I got to enjoy some time alone. I actually read a few magazines it was so nice.
Then we headed to the Yacht Club for happy hour and to let the kids play. After rain for a few days it was nice for some sun.
Sterling snapped this picture of me and I love it, I was so happy I had such a special Mother's Day.
I requested hot dogs for my dinner. I love a good chili dog and these were amazing.
Perfect ending to Mother's Day.
Happy Monday
