HI! I MISSED YOU!

 Oh how I hope the feeling is mutual!

A week break from blogging was necessary- especially with how busy work was and how crazy packing was for the new place! But more on all of that later. For this post I wanted to dedicate it fully to our latest vacation- "camping" with Michael's family! We do it annually, and I count down the days for it every year.

Here's a little snippet into what we do!

Food:
I'm convinced everything tastes better when cooked over an open flame. Mmm-mm.
We had veggies thrown over the fire in tinfoil, smores, and sweet and savory pudgy pies. 

Fun:
There is a lake at the campground and we used it daily. M's aunt and uncle bring their boat every year which means tubing and water skiing. I am the weakest human ever and my arms/shoulders were sore for 2 days from gripping those tubes so much. #wimpy. Here's Michael skiing like a pro:
 I didn't ski, but I do enjoy a good boat lounging session while watching the sun set...
 Crap... I take a lot of sunset pictures. Shoot.

Then of course there's the after-dark fun. Oh get your mind our of the gutter! Stop!
 Michael has 7 little second cousins that come camping too, so naturally we had a glowstick party. I can't say I didn't enjoy it too...

 I'll spare you the rest of the photos, but if you'd like to see the full camping adventure, you can find some of them here.


Do you have any summer traditions with family or friends?
I highly recommend adding glowsticks to whatever your tradition happens to be!

Between the end of a great vacation, an important week at work, and packing up to move on Saturday- I'm in a little over my head!

Hope you all had WONDERFUL weekends- can't wait to see you all right back here next Monday!

Friday's Fancies #65: Tanked

This week's Friday's Fancies theme was a no-brainer. I mean, create an outfit around a great summer tank? 
Done and done.

I centered this outfit around the most perfect minty Madewell dot tank... see below for more details:
Tank: this lightweight minty Madewell tank is the perfect summer top!
Jeans: Light. Stretchy. Comfy. Perfect for lounging on a picnic blanket.
Shoes: Best shoes at Gap this summer. Love the laser cut look!
Necklace: Simple spiked chevron- under $6!
Sunnies: Tortoise is always best- and under $25 makes these a no-brainer.
Bracelet: Per usual, well done j.crew.
Purse: Perfect neon pop! 


Where do you find your great summer pieces?
Share away, friends!
