InstaFriday

another friday means another photo dump. are you ready for easter? yesterday my sister called to let us know that she decided to come home for easter! so excited that they'll be here. 
life rearranged

an amazing sunset. so lucky to get to take this all in every time i drive to my friend meagans house.

my friend shannon & i were talking about the views out our kitchen windows. she'd posted a gorgeous picture on instagram and asked what my kitchen view was... um. a brick wall. not too exciting. luckily, i have this gorgeous garden window and have filled it with some of my favorite things.

before.

after. 
i picked this up a few months ago for $5 at a local junk yard. i've just been waiting and waiting to get it up on my wall. finally this weekend it went up and i'm loving it. 

so.much.to.do. this month is going to be a busy one.
so thankful for my muchadoaboutyou planner to help keep me organized.

tuesday we had a playdate with the fairly fabulous girls! 

we really love them & their mama and are so happy to have such awesome friends.

yesterday cohen brought home a couple of eggs filled with playdough from preschool. love seeing matt and the kids playing together like this. (yeah, matt's on his phone too. i was texting him from 2 feet away about the easter bunny shopping that still needed to be done.)

brookelyn and i went shopping after school and she picked out this shirt from crazy8. love this girl and her happy heart. she woke up early & was totally ready for school 10 minutes before i'm even allowed to drop her off. i only hope that she's always so eager to go to school.  um, my little fashionista was also completely thrilled that her turquoise clip from little penelope lane matched perfectly!

today i worked on a new item that may or may not go into the storenvy shop. i haven't decided yet. but who wouldn't love a camera pincushion? i just need to tweak a few things to make it look better.

also, finally.. 3 days before Easter i did a tiny bit of decorating.


today we're decorating eggs with the cousins. i'm so happy to get an entire weekend with my family. it's not that often that we get to see my sister and her kids, so we're taking full advantage of the time they're here. 
happy friday!

I wish I had done a garden window in my kitchen.
Ok- I love that green bowl from target. I've been debating getting one in another color.
And if you come across a milk glass pitcher, can you grab it for me? Thanks!

Yay for a sister visit! I know when my sistah comes to town, it's therapy for the soul!

And I love, love, love your mantel decorations! The white vases are totally rad! So bright and vintage! Have a happy Easter!

I love the pin cushion; it's super cute! And the window frame as wall art is a great idea! I might have to use that when I redo my room. :)

The window frame up on the wall is a great idea! :)
