Weekend Lovelies

live aloha

:: Weekend Lovelies ::

I’m just dreamin’ of Hawaii over here… reminiscing of my trip to Maui {which seems like a distant memory at this point}! I came across this print {which you see above ^^^} and loved it! You should see the others! Anyway… after a long week {with my husby away at work for days and days on end}, I’m also dreaming of warm, laid-back summer days, eating alfresco,  family getaways, and gatherings with close friends and family! How about you? Any fun plans for the summer that you’re daydreaming about? 

This weekend for lovelies, we have a fun mix of pretty summer things! We hope that you’re as smitten with them, as we are! In case you missed this week’s posts… you can take a peek at them here and here! {xo}

  1. Loving this shop on etsy for modern party goods, invites, and custom stationary! 
  2. This perfectly designed  house in the LBC! {Swoon!} 
  3. 3 reboot, superfood juice recipes!
  4. The latest set of watercolors from Design Love Fest to dress your tech! 
  5. Easy dinners made from these fresh ingredients delivered to your door!
  6. Crafting classes that you can take at home! Cake decorating, anyone?
  7. This Pinterest board just makes me happy! Pretty pastels….
  8. How about these summer recipes from our girl over at Pinch of Yum?!! 
  9. Just a little washi tape and some fun stickers to make these {DIY} colorful wooden flatware! 
  10. These Birkenstocks! A definite summer must have… but which color?!!

Happy Weekend, Friends! Nicole and I hope that you are all doing well and enjoying the first weekend of November! Do you have any fun fall plans? If so… please share!

I’m personally hoping for a relaxing weekend spent at home… {As if that’s possible with four kids, right?!} We’ve been quite busy with homeschooling, family hikes {the photo above was taken on our hike last week}, and ballet rehearsals for Miss Sophia Blue, among other things! We got our first dusting of snow a couple of weeks ago! We are truly soaking up this lovely season of autumn, since it is all so new to us!

This edition of {weekend} lovelies is a mixture of pretty things… some comforting recipes, simple home design, DIY projects, the best crafting blogs, a love story, and more! I hope that you’re able to take a moment and enjoy them while sipping on your favorite warm drink! 

Maple Brown Sugar Pumpkin Roll // Bakeaholic Mama I must make this dessert, simply based on how divine the filling looks! Oh my!

A Swedish Home // Scandinavian Home Blog I can’t resist Scandinavian design. I love the simplicity of the interiors with the abundance of fresh white paint and pops of color throughout.

Fall DIY Projects // Lily Shop I’m loving these three DIY crafts from the Lily Shop Blog! They all seem perfect for the approaching Thanksgiving holiday! Here are the links to the tutorials: 1. Gold Mason Jars | 2. Chalkboard Serving Trays  | 3. Paper Pumpkin

It’s so funny how only a couple of months ago, Nicole and I were both enthusiastically awaiting warm, carefree summer days… and now our minds have completely made the switch to Autumn. We are currently daydreaming of crisp weather, fallen leaves, cinnamon, cozy sweaters, apple cider, full moons, pumpkin carvings, boots, warm crackling fires, cuddling close, autumn colors, scarecrows, salted caramel hot chocolates, wool blankets, football season, baked treats, thankfulness, visits with friends & family, hay rides, snug scarves, candy corn, costumes, pumpkin spice lattes, harvest festivals, weekend naps, movie nights, caramel apples, corn mazes & good books! Oh Fall… how we love thee!

It’s still scorching hot in Southern Califonia… but we can dream! With this edition of Lovelies we are welcoming Fall with open arms and happy, eager hearts! Enjoy & let us know what you are most excited for in the coming season! {xo}

 Happy Weekend!

For this edition of lovelies…

we decided to focus on our sweet littles!

Nicole and I both have birthdays coming up for some of our children,

so we thought it would be the perfect time

to look into party ideas and more!

We also threw in a little Dr. Seuss in honor of his birthday today!

We hope you enjoy some of our favorite finds from this week!

{Yoga with Kids >><< Parents.com}

Are you ready to get your {om} on?

Here are eight yoga poses to do with your kids

that are both playful & fun!

Mini yoga routines can be started with your kids when they reach the age of 18 months.

These poses help kids release extra energy, handle their frustration & even relax before bed!

Not-to-mention,

you’ll be teaching & modeling an exercise routine from a young age,

which has enormous physical & emotional benefits!

…Namaste…
