top:c/o The Mint Julep Boutique, shorts: Old Navy, sandals: Target (similar), undershirt: thrifted, watch: no longer sold (similar) belt: thrifted So, I’ve been thinking a lot about self image lately. Thinking about how I’m constantly putting myself down and talking bad about the way I look.  I started thinking about Hazel and how I don’t want her to ever think she isn’t good enough. And then it made me realize that she watches my every move, she learns everything she does from me -which is reeeeally scary. I am her example of what women are,… Read More

Saturday was HOT but it didn’t ruin any part of the day. I really do love these patriotic holidays, and I think they are becoming my favorite.

So this weekend officially marks the beginning of summer for us. Brand took his boards exam on Thursday and now he’s a free man. In thinking about it, this is the last free summer of his life -dramatic I know, but really. Next summer he will be in the clinic… and the summer after that, and then hopefully he will have a job lined up and it’s all grown up adult business from there.
