Happy Saturday! What are you up to this weekend? Hopefully you have some fun plans mixed-in with some quality family time! This is actually our 50th Weekend Lovelies post! Wow! Time sure flies! As always… it’s an eclectic, but completely lovely mix of our favorite finds on the web during the last week. Thanks for stopping by our blog… we appreciate you all so much! We hope that you enjoy the links below… and of course, your weekend! 

“We’re Going to Be Friends” // Caroline Pennell  Oh my goodness… Have you guys been watching The Voice? Caroline Pennell has been my {and Miss Sophia Blue’s} personal favorite this season. Her rendition of “We’re Going to Be Friends” plays on repeat {super loud} in our house. It puts a smile on my face every time I hear it! Can you believe this talented girl is only 17-years old? Amazing! You can download her music on iTunes!

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.

Happy weekend, friends! I don’t know about you…. but our weather here in the SoCal mountains is finally starting to resemble FALL! I couldn’t be more excited! In fact, this evening while at the market, I picked up all the ingredients needed to make apple cider for the kids! Do you have any fun plans this weekend? I’d love to hear all about them if you do! Please leave a comment and say “hi!” 

 

Life is Beautiful // Tumblr

This is the first tumblr blog I’ve been on where I became completely mesmerized by the images, quotes, and songs playing in the background.  In fact… the site now has a pretty spot at the front of my bookmarks bar. I’ve been going back frequently when I feel the need for a mental pick-me-up. These are just a few of the photos compiled on her site over the last week… lifeisbeautiful-tumblr

I Got You // Jack Johnson

Who doesn’t love Jack? He’s one of our faves… for yoga, car rides, or just a mellow day at home with the family.  His new album, From Here to Now to You, comes out this September.  We’re excited!

 

 

A Tiny House Tour // Jessica Helgerson Interior Design

We’ve seen a photo or two of this tiny house pinned from time-to-time, but never before had we viewed all the photos of this inspirational house all in one place.  When we found it, we knew we needed to share it with you.  It just goes to show that the dreamiest of spaces doesn’t have to be large… just beautifully designed and functional.  It’s complete design {love}!
