"And Spring arose on the garden fair,
Like the Spirit of Love felt everywhere;
And each flower and herb on Earth's dark breast
rose from the dreams of its wintry rest."
-  Percy Bysshe Shelley, The Sensitive Plant

Se laisser vivre! (ok, ok I am not sure if you can say that in the way i meant for it to sound.  french is way outta my league.  I should really stick to English & German!)  this week has been crazy.  I have a zillion (a mere approximation) projects going on (silly college) & far too many ideas for bloggin' projects floating around like confetti my brain. But the really gorgeous, sparkly, multi-colored confetti, so I can't complain.  ; )

I'm working hard to bring you guys some exciting news - I even stayed in tonight to work, work, work! Ya know why? Cause I just love you all to pieces. (a million, beautiful confetti pieces.) 

Cheers to a weekend full of oh la la's...

words of Love for your friday.

{via: better than fine.}

Let’s pray and sing and dance for a while. Let me sing a song about you while we dine. Let’s remember to forget and forget to remember. Let’s touch the sky and kiss the ground and weep while we laugh because you mean so much while the world can mean so little.

Let’s do these things, you and I, for time is short and short is the time.

And tomorrow, we can do it again. If you’d like.

-via the brilliant Iain Thomas of i wrote this for you.

here's to a very happy weekend-
with oh, so much Love.

Happy Friday, Loves!

& also know that you are always loved. Always.

perspective.

When you look at the world in a narrow way, how narrow it seems! When you look at it in a mean way, how mean it is! When you look at it selfishly, how selfish it is! But when you look at it in a broad, generous, friendly spirit, what wonderful people you find in it.

-Horace Rutledg-

Have a happy Weekend, Loves!

p.s. tattoo Love.

grateful for You.

i am grateful for You. 
It's true!  there are so many things in my life to be grateful for.
i take so much for granted. i must change that about myself.
correction: i am going to change that about myself.  

 {inspiration from this print found here.}

because i am so blessed.  
blessed beyond belief. 

knowing the amount of Love in my life, makes me feel like the luckiest girl in the world.

& always know, I Love You!

Happy Friday, Lovebugs.

I hope it is full of blessings.

Happy Friday to You! 

alas, the sweet, sweet weekend.

I hope it is filled with happiness & hugs. 

Because hugs are like band-aids for the soul.

Thank you so much for all the support & Love in lieu of my niece natalie's recent health issues. 

You can follow details of her story here. (with, of course, updates on here.)

thank you, thank you, thank you.

& many prayers to the darling Kate & her family.  

my apologies & picnics galore.

i have been a really really terrible blogger lately.  ever since my ridiculously wonderful birthday, i have been bombarded with exciting summer adventures & many-a-wedding celebrations.  You see, in the past month i have attended 3 bridal showers. all were quite fun, but they have certainly kept me busy, busy.  Tonight i have a bachelorette party to attend that is going to be just as fun, but it will probably knock me on my lazy bum for the rest of the weekend... 

but i promise to get back on track with my regularly scheduled blogging starting NOW!

...

so, for my birthday i received this picnic basket from my sweet parents. 

it is super rad & i am in love with it! 

well, then my awesome friend Liz gifted me this awesome cookbook: 

it is perfect!!

to top it all off Liz also gave me some little plastic bottles of wine (it was my twenty-first after all) to bring along on my picnicking adventures! 

eeps! i can't wait!!

happy friday! 

here's to a splendid weekend 

& lots of picnics this summer! ; )

xoxo my loves.

fridays makes me happy.

whewwwww.

friday is here-
hooray, hooray!

sunlight, smiles & friday.
