FRIDAY FAVORITES....HEADING INTO SUMMER

Hi friends, well we had one rainy day this week but every other day has been picture perfect here in Indiana EXCEPT What originally was supposed to be an 80° weekend is now a Sunday high of 58, boo to that. We were going to take Stella on a day trip to establishments that allow dogs around Lake Michigan, darn it. We’ll figure something else out and I sure hope y’all figure out a great weekend! Inching into total summer mode!

OH and big news, I went to COSTCO for the first time with my friend Kim yesterday. I'm SOLD!


1. Stella the Swimmer

Flamingo

Last weekend it was all warmth and sunshine! We blew up the Big Flamingo from my friend Kate and Miss Stella had her first swim! How cute does she look in her teeny weenie pink Polka Dot Bikini! She just loved floating on that flamingo and of course was a natural swimmer, LOL! We have such an outdoor lover on her hands!

2. J.Crew Factory 

I don’t know why it is but I really only tend to shop J.Crew and J.Crew Factory in the warmer weather months! So much cuteness to be had and summer frocks! J.Crew factory always has much better prices but the exact same quality! Look how cute these pieces are!



3. Back Porch

Getting the Back Porch cleaned up and ready for Summer Sittin makes me so happy. New Pillows arrived this year and I painted the accent table and lanterns a deeper teal. I did an entire Blog Post when we first put together this look of the porch and now on our 5th summer, it's going strong. I may change colors next year but I love the blue hues with the green.

Newer Version of our exact Sectional HERE
Comes with an extra set of cushion coves which we finally 
switched to this year.


4. Azalea

I only have one azalea and it blooms every spring to only last for about a week, so I made sure I snapped a picture. Such a beautiful lavender shade.


5. Misc. Fun

  7. Cannot handle Stella in her bikini. Too cute!!! Love your back porch area! I was just at J Crew Factory earlier this week. I almost got a color block dress but decided against it. Still trying to decide if I regret that decision or not lol. Hope you have a great weekend!

  12. Miss Stella is super cute! I just want to hug her. Boo to being 58 on Sunday. We can trade weathers (if only) because it’s scorching where I live. It’s been in the high 90s and I am not happy! I am so not a summer girl. :( J.Crew has the cutest dresses. I want the white and blue one. It is perfection! Happy Friday!

  17. Wait this was your first trip to Costco? Ever? ;0) Had to giggle on how men load the fridge. The lid would be a bonus at our house! Ha! We had snow yesterday! I was out there covering my tomato plants! We always need the moisture so all good! But we had our fireplace on last night while watching Three Mile Island.
