Rainy Rompers

Hello friends! I'm here to share some photos from an early evening spent with a lovely friend, playing around in a shiny parking lot near Bay Beach after the rain. We met up at a spot I've driven passed with the kids a million times this summer on our way to the pool, with a cute red staircase and the name of that much loved road in bold black. After taking our pictures we grabbed some dinner at the new Copper State Brewing Company. If you visit you MUST try the Smores dessert. 

I love that these pics feel so end of summer happy, as today the kids were all officially back at school and I'm just a little giddy about it. So there you have it!

Thank you Nichole for the photos. 💗

Checkered Jumpsuit

Hello friends! Ahhhh, our beautiful summer is quickly winding down and I'm just not ready for it. Do you feel the same way? Sure we have all that fall yumminess to look forward to ... Wisconsin sure makes it hard not to love the change of seasons, even the inevitable sad cooling down is made bare-able (maybe even sweet?) by autumn's stunning transformation. We'll all be googly eyed over pumpkins and ciders soon. Okay I'll stop. 😉 

We're racing through August, on the final summer stretch now, and I just don't want to say goodbye to our beautifully unstructured lives and lazy togetherness. All of my favorite memories have been created in one summer or another. Oh the unfettered life! 

Anyway, I rarely feel sure of what to say in style posts these days. "Here's a checkered jumpsuit. So cute. I love them. Etcetera, etcetera." You already know and I think I'll just let the pictures speak for the clothes. I adore clothes and I can't help but share that with the world! Hah! But I'll let you fill in the blanks?

#greenbaymidsummermingle

Hi lovelies!

My sister and I had the great pleasure of throwing a HUGE party on Sunday night, with 120 ladies in attendance. This was our second annual Midsummer Mingle and a tradition we plan on keeping as it's one of the sweetest evenings of our summer. Our goal with this event is to offer something really unique and special here in Green Bay, a relaxing evening that offers all local ladies a chance to dine with old friends and new and to experience all sorts of things that girls just love. What can we say, we love life and making it beautiful! The evening includes delicious food al fresco, with live music playing and everyone dressed in something that makes them feel pretty. And then we add as much romantic whimsy as we can on a budget, with flowers, watercolor painting, twinkling lights, and sparklers to name a few. All in all, it ends up being a party that I dearly love and I hope all that attend do too!

And really, thank you to all of the wonderful women that came this year. It's so heart warming to see you there, laughing and chatting and taking your selfies. We are so chuffed when these events attract so many sweet faces and especially when we see you all connecting and cheering each other on. You are the best. 😍
