Weekend Recap | Memorial Day

HAPPY MEMORIAL DAY!!!! Cannot believe I’m already typing that it’s Memorial Day weekend … which means that summer is basically here! And I’m SOOOO not ready! Well, of COURSE I’m ready for a beach vacation but this only means that I have to put on a swimsuit in 2 months! AH! Time to hit it hard at the gym and cut out the sugars I’ve been craving. Oops! 😉 It’s difficult when I want to surprise my love with delicious cookies and then realize that we actually have to eat them until it’s gone! Haha!

Before I headed out for a wedding on Saturday, I came out to my family’s grand opening of the Messicks Farm Market!!! It was a HUGE success and we are all so thankful for your support! It means the world to us because this is the start of our new future! We never thought this would be where we are 10 years ago, but everything has come together to make this work and happen! Here’s a sneak peek from the day with a FULLY packed parking lot and a packed building! Wohoo! 🙂 Feel free to come out sometime and check out the new space! Check out the website for updated details on times and other announcements. 🙂

This weekend was absolutely gorgeous so I hope everyone was able to take advantage of this weather! Afterwards, we met up with my childhood BFF at Phillip Carter Winery for her birthday celebration and let me just tell you … if you EVER go to Phillip Carter Winery you HAVE to order some of their Sangria! It’s a must!!! Glad to have been able to spend some time with her and the crew and enjoy some time out of the office. 🙂

I have some goodies to share with you this week on the blog while getting ready for a double header weekend. 🙂 Here are some sneak peeks!
