Holy Moly...

...Is it THURSDAY already???  Where have I been??  Well I'll tell you...I've been working hard at my Etsy shop, Lemon Squeezies, I've been planning and executing a 2 years old's bday party....this guy here..

{Yes I made his shirt...I love!!!}

...planning and soon to execute my sister in laws 40th bday party, and just generally trying to get my life back in order!  So I guess this week has kinda flown by without me doing much else!  But I did manage to throw together a half decent outfit on the first day I could wear shorts!  Yay!!!



Fun fact about these shorts...they were skin tight in January.  Craig even asked if they were new and I practically yelled "NO!!! THEY'RE OLD!!!  LIKE, PRE WEDDING OLD!!!!!!"  I got a little excited....



Oh...and I read some "scare the pants off of me" article about skin cancer and I've decided to embrace the whiteness....and to use self tanner.  Jergens is a miracle worker!  No more booths for me!

The Deets: 
Shirt - Jason Wu for Target (pays to wait!  Got it on 50% off clearance)
Shorts - OLD...so I don't know where I got them
Shoes - Target

Movie Night



Can I tell you how excited I was when my neighbor (the one who hosted my birthday party) said "I have free movie tickets...wanna go see The Hunger Games?"  I almost threw up.  I just finished reading all 3 books, literally in 3 days (I couldn't stop) and have been bugging the husband to take me to see the movie NOW.  It's probably best he didn't go, though, because 1) he probably would have fallen asleep since we could only go at 9:00 at night, 2) he wan't into it as much as me because he didn't read the books, and 3) He would see me oogling a 19 year old Josh Hutcherson....I can't help it...I got attached to the character.  That's not too bad, right...a 12 year age difference...no...that's not too bad.....I act like I'm 18 anyway...so it all works out....



Side note: You know your house looks really bad when you and your husband can't find an area to take a picture without crap in the background.

Tribal Dress


I found this dress on clearance at Target...and I wasn't 100% sold on it...but figured for $7 I may as well take it home and try it on.  I LOVE it!  It was the perfect dress to wear on a near 80 degree day, and an outing to the aquarium, and I'm really loving the bold print!  I'm so happy to finally be getting more color and more exciting prints into my wardrobe (thanks in part to this lil ol' blog!) and excited to actually get to wear them with all this gorgeous whether about!

Modern Day Hippie



Saturday night my neighbors through me a birthday party.  Well...not just me.  We have a group of 3 couples that we love, and coincidentally, 2 people have birthdays within days of each other.  So we get together 3 times to celebrate that duos b-day...am I losing you? Possibly.  But anyway, it's always a fun get together with drinks, and food and games.  My birthday rocks because it's held at my next door neighbors house, so we never need to find a sitter, we just bring the monitors over to there house.  No seriously...look


I don't even plan to wear shoes over there ever since it takes about 7 steps to get inside their door...where I take my shoes off.  So in order to enjoy a totally relaxing and fun night...I wore a totally relaxing and fun outfit!  It was perfect for loads of eating, drinking, laughing, and celebrating!






You ever feel pretty good about your outfit...and you start getting stupid and silly?  That's fair warning for the remainder of these pictures...
