Weekend Recap

Kyle and I were walking out of the house Saturday morning when we both took in a deep breath … spring is here! Or at least it seems like it’s coming. 🙂 Saturday night we also heard the “peepers” outside for the first time this year! Who else is excited for spring?! I’m ready to make some plans to enjoy the warmth of the sunshine and be active. 🙂

These last couple of weeks of March, I purposefully slowed down in my calendar to do a little spring cleaning and enjoy the last bit leisure time before April arrives. I have been deep cleaning the house and getting it prepared for a crazy year! This week, I will also be focusing on preparing packages … so I will definitely be calling a packaging party here at my house soon for those who want to join in on the fun. 😉 I’ll provide wine! Haha! Once that is done, I will be able to take a step back and enjoy some fun sewing projects I have been wanting to take care of for months. 🙂 Definitely need to soak in these last couple weeks because the time will fly by fast! Wedding season begins in April for me and I won’t be slowing down until July.

I hope everyone enjoys their Monday! Here’s a sneak peek of my new decorated living room space! 🙂 Home Goods is so dangerous!!! I’ll be sharing more on the blog tomorrow.
