weekend recap and giveaway winner


this weekend was beautiful. bright and sunny on saturday, with a calming, change-into-your-pjs-after-church steady rain on sunday. highlights include:

-trips to an adorable downtown about an hour from home, where were found a perfect little flea market, a hole-in-the-wall hot dog shop, and homemade lemon ice cream.
-sunday lunches around my parent's living room table, gathering hands over plates of turkey wraps and chocolate chip pecan pie
-eating with robert at a new little diner in our hometown, with gorgeous live music from the cutest country woman, oblivious to the fact that she sang every lyric to "american honey" wrong.
-falling asleep every night in the nook of our couch, with pablo snuggled in my knees.

-and the best part of this weekend?

making homemade shirts with pablo that say "Best Friends Club." call me crazy, but they are adorable and he looks precious in his. pictures to come soon:)

this weekend was wrapped up sweetly last night when choosing the giveaway winner via random.org:
Jane, from Life on Planet Baby

congratulations, Jane. you are, as charlie sheen would declare, a WINNER!

have a beautiful, blessed monday, sweet friends!

Hello my beautiful friend! Sounds like you had a lovely weekend; our weather was completely opposite! Saturday it rained for us, so after the gym, we ordered Thai take-out, came home, put on our PJs and cozied up on the couch until the evening. Funny how rain makes you want to just snuggle. Sunday was bright and sunny, so we hit the beach.

I am SO looking forward to photos of your homemade shirts! :)

Your weekend sounds so perfectly lovely. I don't recall the last time I had a weekend like that -- maybe over the summertime? All I know is I need another pajama Sunday soon.
