Weekending

Hello Monday! Love this quote below, we could all use some coffee, awesomeness, and positivity this week.


On Friday, we took advantage of the BOGO holiday drinks at Starbucks, and I was a little too excited for my first red cup of the season. They're so pretty this year, and I love that there are so many different designs. Maybe that's why there weren't any fun summer or fall cups this year, because they were going all out for Christmas. Maybe...


*I enjoyed a Holiday Spice Flat White with skim and it was delish!*


Saturday, I went to get my hair done and enjoyed some me time with some wine and catching up with my stylist.


*Loved this quote at her station*


Then it was time to head to Emily and K's for their housewarming BBQ. They went all out with amazing food, and even an ice cream sundae bar - YUM! It was so nice to see everyone all together, and for more friends to meet lil' miss.





******************************************

I realized I never shared pics of baby girl's nursery once it was complete. Of course the lighting wasn't the best, but I can't get over how much I love how it all came together. I was looking to do lavender with silvery gray and cream accents so we painted 3 walls lavender and did an accent wall in gray.

*My talented mom made the blanket, crib sheet, and bed skirt - they all came out perfect*




My grandfather made this mini rocking chair when I was a little girl, and my parents brought it so Serena can have it now. (The sparkly tutu resting on it was from her going home outfit that my mom made for her.)


How cute is this basket from Pottery Barn Kids? It's perfect for holding diapers, wipes, lotion, powder, and all the changing table needs.

  32. We went to Starbucks not knowing that was happening. I was just going to get a tea, but hubby ordered a holiday drink so I ended up with one too. I usually am not crazy about the sweet drinks, but I love a flat white. Need to try this one! Looks like a great weekend. Such a cute nursery!
