Good morning. I hope you had a wonderful weekend. We were planning to celebrate our 23rd wedding anniversary but a cold got the best of my husband. So we are looking forward to celebrating later this week. Here is a peek at life lately on the beautiful Monday morning.
LEIPER’S FORK
Spent some time in Leiper’s Fork this past weekend. It’s one of my very favorite towns. It’s likes stepping back in time and they hydrangeas are in full bloom.
Speaking of hydrangeas, we are planning to plant more of them in our backyard this fall. They have done well around our yard so I’m excited to add some mopheads in to the mix. I love this blue color so much.
SONGWRITERS’ ROUND
We joined friends to watch these incredible songwriters. If you ever have the chance to see Trannie Anderson in person, take it. She writes most of Lainey Wilson’s songs and her own voice is magic. These nights are so special. And it’s even more fun when these songwriters play new music and producers in the audience decide to share with top artists. We love being in a place where you can enjoy nights like these.
BEAUTIFUL COCKTAILS
I’m usually not a cocktail girl but this one was yummy and beautiful. And this purse is still going strong. I carry it daily. This is the one I have (this Amazon version is almost identical).
SOMETHING TO WATCH
Have you seen this? Riley watched it and then told me I would love it. She was so right. It was a book but is now a 4 part mini series and it is adorable. Very sweet.
A LITTLE NUDGE
Today I signed up for another session of our bible study group. I share that because maybe someone needs a little nudge to get more plugged in with the community or to go outside your comfort zone to make connections. This has been such a blessing in my life and our small group has become so special to me. I am very thankful I took a chance and signed up.
ON DECK THIS WEEK
This is what I am diving into this week. Thank you to all of you who recommended it. I can’t wait to read it. And this book is what we are reading for our next book club pick.
DARLING SNEAKERS
These arrive today. I thought they were such a great price and they are really cute. Nordstrom has a similar pair on sale during the Anniversary sale.
In case you missed it, Saturday Shopping was full of wedding guest dress ideas, what I bought from the Nordies sale, Amazon buys and $22 handbag I absolutely love. This pretty dress can be found here (great for a fall event).
What is on your agenda this week? I am off and running to knock out some errands today. I felt like we had everything for Riley’s move back to school and suddenly I am second guessing that. Does anyone else do that? We did just order this for her and she loves it. She is happy that it will free up space in her dorm room. Our complete check list can be found here.
