These are just some pretty things I've seen circulating on tumblr. If you are not on tumblr, GOOD FOR YOU. (srsly)

Mmmhmmm Yep

Get all excited about doing a trendy little outfit photoshoot.

Suddenly remember I don't have my camera.

Become momentary gloomy-bear.

Reconsider how to spend afternoon.

Oh, wait- there's so such thing as TUMBLR!

Back to happy!

Tea Party Dresses and Kisses

Beatrice and I felt well enough yesterday afternoon to brave the elements and make an appearance at my sister's 13th birthday tea party! We wore some dresses we had never worn before. So fun! I used hot curlers on Bea and it really doesn't get much cuter than that!!
If this dress looks familiar, it's because you've seen it here. I am so happy it is mine!!! 

On Mama
dress: Vic Mizzy
socks: ebay
shoes: thrifted
belt: thrifted

On Beatrice
dress: gifted
shoes and socks: Target

NOT PICTURED: a sweater for Beatrice. Because I really did not take her out in the cold with no sleeves. What kind of mama...

Whiskey and Kleenex

That's been our week. One of those colds that knocks you on the floor for a few days. Bea and I have had it the worst and I think it has pretty much run its course.

Thursday was the hardest day for me. I wish I could have just stayed in bed, but I had a math test, an art history test and computer quiz (on the use of the Pen tool in Illustrator). I can't believe I made it through that day!!!

Here's to a new week, a fresh start!
