I'm super excited to finally be off the wait list for Play! by Sephora. Ever since I first heard about their new subscription box service last year I've been wanting those coveted striped boxes to arrive on my doorstep each month. I can't wait for my first one to arrive in May!
I took an impromptu weekend trip to Virginia where I got to check out VA Beach for the first time. Lots of good food was eaten, rounds of mini golf, and checking out a new area.
Afterwards, it was time for some mini golf and delicious table-side guacamole at a great Mexican spot. Yum!
After a whirlwind trip, it was back to the grind and relaxing evenings at home. I'm still thoroughly enjoying Lauren Conrad's new party planning book Celebrate, and for those of you who haven't scooped it up yet there's a 10% off cartwheel for it this week at Target. You're welcome!
That looks like a fun trip! I know what you mean, things have been so busy lately for me too. I hope you enjoy the rest of your week!
ReplyDeleteI wondered what shenanigans you'd been up too! How fun but oh doesn't life just grab ya and run with ya sometimes, so crazy. May the rest of your week go smooth beautiful so you can get to a relaxing weekend!!
ReplyDeleteTableside Guac is always a good idea!! You've been a busy lady, but yay for getting off the waiting list for PLAY! - hope you love it! xo, Biana -BlovedBoston
ReplyDeleteseems like people are putting blogging on the back burner (myself included!) for life which is way more awesome, if you ask me! then again, when summer rolls around, blogland is pretty quiet.
ReplyDeleteI keep forgetting about the Cartwheel app! That guac yummmmm!
ReplyDeleteI'm still waiting to get approve for the Play box! Can't wait to see what you get! And yay for your trip to VA! Glad you had fun even though it was a short trip and glad you got to check out Home Republic! :)<3, Pamela Sequins & Sea Breezes
ReplyDeleteSo exciting you are off the wait list! Can't wait to hear what you think of May's box. Sounds like a great time in Virginia Beach! I haven't been in a while, which is so bad since it's only a few hours from us! Aren't Duck Donuts amazing though?? They opened a location near our house last summer. Seriously dangerous. haha!

Looks like it was a fun trip! My bestie lives there and I love to visit her!
ReplyDeleteI was wondering where you've been! Haha. :-) Looks like you had a fun trip though!! I have never been to Virginia Beach but it looks like fun. I hope that your week has been good so far too!! :-)
ReplyDeleteSounds like a great time! I love Virginia Beach, so good to have you in my state for awhile ;)
ReplyDeleteI got off the wait list, too, and am so excited!! We were just talking about going to Virginia beach for the weekend for my birthday! I think the drive is too far for me, but we'd love to go when we have more time! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteYay for Play!!! Cant wait to see what you think. We just did a bunch of jobs in and around VA Beach last week, but of course I am not the one to go on inspections. Sounds like a lovely place to visit! Thanks for the heads up on Celebrate! Love Cartwheel!!!
ReplyDeleteOMG I want Lauren Conrad's new book so badly! You should not have shared about Cartwheel! :P hahah impromptu trips are so fun! I've never been to Virginia. Looks like you had lots of fun! We just got back from San Francisco and the coast, so I posted that recap on Monday. Looking forward to Tennessee in July and Vegas in August. XO - Alexandra

What a fun weekend, so nice to get away. I am on the Wait List for the Play box because it wasn't even available in our area to start with. I'm anxious to see how long it takes! Thanks for the info on the Cartwheel, totally picking up the book!
ReplyDeleteI was in Virginia Beach for a couple days back when my brother was coming home from overseas (he was in the Navy and on a carrier for a little more than a year), and I remember it being such a cute boardwalk and beach. Warm donuts? Yes, please! And, thanks for the heads up about the Cartwheel deal for Celebrate - I'm going there today!
ReplyDeleteYou've been a busy lady!! I loved Roxy's snap pictures...my pup always gets mad when I leave him too. LOL! MMM, now I want me some guac! Glad you are off the wait list! Hope May's box is better than April's! Might have to see if my Target has LC's book in stock...I love the Cartwheel app!

Very exciting about the Play box, I'm hoping to get one soon! I borrowed Celebrate from the library and am not ready to give it up yet so I think I may need to take the plunge and get my own copy, haha.
ReplyDeleteI didn't realize Sephora had a subscription. That's exciting! And now I want donuts...

Virginia beach looks great!!! I want to go there. Glad you have coffee on your flight delays, when I'm stuck at the airport for a long time, I head for the wine! :)
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a fun impromptu trip to VA beach, it looks gorgeous!! How yummy does that tableside guac look?!
ReplyDeleteSweet deal! So do you have to pay for the subscription boxes or they're free? Virginia Beach looks gorgeous and sunny! It's always cool to check out a new city and explore.
ReplyDeleteSporadic trips are the best! Looks like a fun time. Yumm, now I want Guac! Beautifully Candid
ReplyDeleteWho knew VA Beach had so much to do!? Sold (and the donuts are an added bonus!). Love those orange TB sandals!
ReplyDeleteYAY! You're going to love the sephora box!
ReplyDeleteAll that food looks so yum! Especially the guac!
ReplyDeleteVirginia Beach looks so pretty and fun! :) Those doughnuts sound tasty! I also got off the list for the Sephora box, but the timing is terrible because we are moving soon and won't have a real address for a month. Hopefully I can get it once we are officially moved in!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun getaway! I totally want the Play boxes, I didn't realize there was a waitlist! PS- what's your snapchat name? I'll follow you!
