Happy Wednesday! The last week of school is upon us! Today is their last full day of school, with the next two days of school being half days. I’ve honestly been counting down the last days, just like the kiddos. I’m so ready for summer break. Ready for everything to slow down just a bit, and enjoy more time with the kids. The older they get, the more activities they’re interested in. You don’t want to hold them back from things they want to do, but then you also don’t want them to miss out on just having time to play: in the yard, in their rooms, at the playground, with their siblings, etc. It’s that balance that I’m always striving for. In the summer, I let them take breaks from all of their activities for the most part and they love it.
Effie as Charity Barnum for her book report last week.
Love the aqua version of this dress, that I decided to order the coral pink color, as well. For fit, it has a little swing, but I feel like it still fits true to size. Paired it with these sandals in rose gold and this rose gold cuff.
Cheers to the weekend after a fun tennis match on Friday!
Rosé for National Wine Day. The Palm is by the same people that make Whispering Angel. While this was refreshing and less expensive than Whispering Angel, I still prefer the latter. // These are the girls’ new hooded beach towels from the Pottery Barn x Lilly Pulitzer collaboration. I ordered them awhile ago, but they were on backorder. Shop here for the top one, and here for the bottom one. And how cute are these new earrings? You know I love this style so much, was super excited when I saw she came out with this pretty bright pink for summer!
The girls had a blast at a birthday party last week, a glow party at Sky Zone!
Over the weekend, my dad was the medical director for the Queen City Honors Flight to Washington, DC. Here with Bob Dole.
How cool was their welcome home salute to the vets?
The best cupcake baker around. She made this one all by herself!
Loving this crab dip by Big T Coastal Provisions. I got the little strawberry acrylic glass here. Comes as a set of two. Thought they were so fun for summer!
On Saturday night, Lanier and I enjoyed a date night. Wearing this dress and these earrings.
Golf cart ride to the Windjammer!
Love the shape of this dress so much! Currently on sale!
Thanks for all of the reading recs. I just started this one, as so many of you suggested it. Wearing THE softest pajamas! Seriously. Obsessed.
Patriotic bows for the holiday weekend!
It rained on Monday, so we headed to the movies.
Evening swim at a friends’ pool…even in the rain!
Yesterday, the kids had their end of year bash! Always so much fun!
Finally, I’ll leave you with this sweet pic from three years ago! Why does time have to fly by so fast?
I hope y’all are having a great week so far!
Is the dress your wearing to the movies not available anymore? On shop your feed, the other dresses didn’t have the smocking. Did I miss something? It’s adorable!
Unfortunately, it’s a Vineyard Vines maxi dress that has sold out. Only about two months ago.
