Scenes from the weekend...

This weekend proved to be everything I wanted it to be: friends, family and some relaxation. Here are a few snaps to prove it!

Look what Grandma G bought Olivia. Is this not a great book or what?!

...and Grandpa G made Olivia a sweet momento for her upcoming christening: a ring with her birthstone. Yes, I said he made that! He's got mad skillz, huh? {so tiny!}

It's official...I cut the bangs on Friday. Now you don't need to hear me pine for them any longer.

I have to say, I love them.

Don't you love rediscovering items in your closet? Exhibit A, above.

Classic clutches make me happy!

A raging basil plant. Caprese salad anyone?

Rosemary, chives and green onion! Job well done, husband!
