Monday Morning Wrap Up

Let’s do this Monday. I was convinced Spring was here but there is a rumor we have freezing temps this week. I’ll just focus on the beautiful blue sky. I am excited to have my daughter on Spring break this week. She has been working her tail off (junior year is no joke) so it’s nice to see her decompress and that means I get more time with her. Sharing life lately on this Monday morning.

CLEAN COSTCO FINDS

We made a quick run to Costco this weekend and I wanted to share some of the the things we alway grab because they are clean ingredients and great to have on hand for snacks. The That’s It bars are an awesome alternative to fruit snacks. I love them and always have a couple in my purse. And cinnamon is random but I put it on everything. It’s so good on a bowl of greek yogurt and frozen blueberries.

DATE NIGHT IN THE CITY

There is nothing like being excited to go out to one of your favorite restaurants only to show up and realize you made the reservation for the wrong night. That is what happens when I am in charge. If you visit Nashville, you definitely need reservations. But if you don’t have one or screw up like I did, we LOVE the Food Hall Assembly. It’s directly across from Bridgestone and The Ryman and is an upscale food hall. It has live music and great options. A great spot if you are traveling with children.

THE RYMAN

From the Food Hall, The Ryman is just across the street and one of our very favorite venues for a concert. It’s intimate and beautiful.

Sam Hunt kicked off his summer tour with a Nashville concert and it was incredible. Plus everyone stood and danced which was so much fun (often times the crowd sits at The Ryman). The seats are church pews which is charming but not very comfy. Don’t say I didn’t warn you.

ADDING IN SOME COLOR

Since we moved in, I’ve been wanting to add a more vibrant rug to our family room. When my sister was visiting (she’s a very talented designer) she mentioned that a darker rug would help ground the room and I agree. Plus it will warm it up and contrast with our white sectional. I bought this one and can’t wait for it to arrive. I think it goes so well with our existing pieces. I’ll share it as soon as it arrives. And for a rug that is 8 x 11, it’s a very reasonable price.

My daughter and I are off for a fun shopping day. We are also jumping into a backyard project so be on the lookout in stories. Wishing you a wonderful start to your week.
