::whirlwind weekend::

About 15 girls headed to the lake this weekend to celebrate the upcoming marriage of KC in the form of a bachelorette party. It's kind of crazy to think that she will be KG in 12 days. Twelve days... 

Fun was had. Wine was drank. And gifts were opened. I love being a girl. 

we also celebrated the birthday of my rooms.

b is for birthday and bailey.

pretty little things

a 3 month old baby giraffe...

need i say more?


**and did you know that anthro has a 
complete garden/outdoor store called terrain.
its pretty incredible just in case you 
wanted to take a peak or three?

::tgif::

Friday was perfectly carefree... actually just perfect.

KB and I decided to wander dallas in search of 

perfect food and gorgeous sunshine-y days.

We ended up in bishop arts devouring the best

root beer floats in texas right after I decided

that I could move into enos and be absolutely

content for the rest of my life. I need to

know their decorator...

::a birthday tribute::

This is my friend katie {or crawf, crawfy, kcrawf}.

She's turning the big 23 today and I am so excited

to celebrate her this evening with mexican food

and friends and patio time. The funniest thing about all

of these nicknames is that she will be loosing them soon.

You see, my little crawfy is getting married in 3

weeks. THREE weeks! What a lucky man her fiance...

Here's wising you a lovely, perfect birthday. 

I LOVE YOU.

loving [as of late]

this amazing double walled cup. 

{that means NO sweating people}

i love this thing.

everything about this album.

Temper Trap is the perfect summer album.

essie summer 2010 collection.

how could you not love a color called

"haute as hello?"

a simple summer night.

It was one of those great summer nights... the kind

that aren't super planned where everyone just enjoys

summer. It was simple and hipster and just perfect.

We headed to the Hotel Belmont in Oak Clif on Thursday for 

their kickoff of summer pool movie parties. And if the 

fun drinks and weather weren't enough?- Check out that

incredible view of downtown dallas. It was pretty cool. 

I have decided that figuring out what you want to do "when you grow up" is not easy. In fact, it's proving to be extremely difficult right now. And the most frustrating part... where to begin? I only wish that I knew what making a start looked like... one day I want to look back on this season of life and laugh... one day. Cheers to dreaming.

Do yourself a favor and take a little peak online
because it is VERY VERY pretty. I just loved 
everything about it. 

lake days

I headed to the lake this past weekend with five 

of my closest friends for some quality texas sunshine.

And after some face first nose dives... I now have a 

sinus infection. not fun but oh so worth it.
