Hey all!  As we inch day by day closer to the end of August, I'm starting to get beyond excited for our trip to Europe!!  Every time I think about it I get butterflies in my stomach (the good kind, of course).  It's going to be the absolute best time.  We've waited for so long to plan this vacation, and I can't believe we are just a few weeks away from it now.  Get me to the Mediterranean already!!!

Summer Blues: Dress + Heels + Handbag

Hey there!  How's the beginning of your week going so far?  Great, I hope!  This gal right here (being me, obviously) is tiiiiired to the ninth degree.  My very weird, not normal work schedule has got me seriously exhausted, and I can't wait until my next day off on Thursday.  My big plans?  To sleep.  To sleep in reallyyy late.  (As in so late, I'll put my college days to shame.)  #PartyAnimal

Stripe Out: Blouse + Skinnies + Heels

I'm back!  I'm back!  I didn't desert you.  I have been so busy planning and celebrating Matt's birthday this past week!  I am huge on birthdays, so every year a birth-day turns into a birth-week.  This year for Matt's birthday we had friends over for a party one night, then went on a mini road trip and hiking in Prescott with the dogs for the day, before finishing up with a birthday dinner with friends at our favorite restaurant, Postino (yummo to the tenth degree), and then yet another family dinner at Taco Guild (also extremely nom-able).   His birthday was on July 15th, but he still deserves a blog shout out, of course,  so here it goes: HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MY LOVE!!!
(Also, you may notice that Luna makes a cameo in some of today's photos.  And for that, you are welcome.)
