I have got a great holiday giveaway lined up for you today!! See this sparkly necklace?
So gorgeous, right?
Well it could be yours…and I’ll get to the details in a minute, but first let’s catch up a little shall we?
This Saturday was my 26th birthday…crazy! I am so thankful for all the lovely wishes I received throughout the day and feel blessed to have so much love in my life. The weekend itself was fairly low-key, which was nice and it felt good to relax!
Full disclosure, it wasn’t the best birthday I’ve ever had..mainly because I was a little bit grouchy all weekend. I am genuinely super happy 95% of the time, but occasionally I get a little moody and for whatever reason that’s how I felt this weekend. Not the best timing, but hey, it happens. And I only mention it because sometimes I feel like how I come across on social media is “OMG I AM SO HAPPY THIS PICTURE OF LOLA/CAM/MY DINNER/LAKE TAHOE IS THE BEST THING EVER” might make people mistakenly think that everything is always perfect and that I never have a bad day. But I do (occassionally). Because I’m human, and that’s ok.
really care how I come across on social media because I love posting pictures of Lola/Cam/my dinner/Lake Tahoe, so don’t worry, that won’t ever stop…ha! I’m just trying to keep it real is all. And I am truly excited about this year. 25 was amazing, but I have a feeling the next 12 months are going to be even better.
Bring it on 26!
So here are some Instagrams snaps from the weekend because I still haven’t gotten around to tackling the massive project that is our vacation photos.
All in good time my pretties.

Birthday breakfast on Saturday morning…hot cocoa and chocolate chip pancakes…if I’ve learned anything in these past 26 years it’s that excessive sugar consumption on your birthday is a must. |

Saturday night, we went out for a nice dinner…and my nails were feeling particularly festive. |

Sunday, the weather was crazy stormy so rainboots were a must for brunch with Natasha & running errands. |

And then I had to include this little gem for no other reason than the fact that my dog is ridiculous. |
