One Downfall of A Weekend Off....

So I've been away...

Jacob and I needed a nice weekend away so we planned this whole thing in New York over the weekend.

It was such a great weekend too.

Here's an image to sum it all up for you:

I have to work today but tomorrow I'll be catching up on my weekend, my belated hair tutorial and some more of the 30 Day Challenge!!

Until then, I'm curling back up with the iPad in bed to wait out this thunder storm and do some reading before work.

Happy Monday!

How was your weekend?!

Manic Monday! Music and Weekend Photos!

I have a lot to show you.

After a really awesome weekend of St Germane drinks,

20's Jazz music and hats,

beers and boater hats,

and brunch by the water.

I just need to spend a little more time 

tweeking my photos before you get to see them :)

So to tide you over today,

check out this video.

It's how I feel today!

Here are a few pictures I took this weekend!

(And I'll have my first Hair Tutorial later this week! How Exciting!)

Jake and I :)

Bowling Green view.

History Rebuilding Itself.

Beautiful Dancers. 

Sunday Sangria!

I have the next few days off (after today) so expect some pictures posts, a hair tutorial, craft DIY's and recipes!

How was your weekend and Father's Day??

Weekend in Photos: SoHo Art Crawl

Happy Sunday, everyone!

I wish this morning had started out this beautiful and sunny,

but it didn't.

It started out late and grey...

because I woke up late in result of a hard core Saturday!

(And I'm still nursing a headache!)

Yesterday, Jacob and I took NYC by storm! 

We started out at PeelsNYC.

It was so friggin yummy!

Thank you so much, Natalie for your wonderful suggestion!

The food was delicious, the atmosphere was buzzing, the cocktails were...strong...

All in all, that was some of the best brunch I've had in a while!

Perfect portions and SUCH a cute place!

From there we wandered around, hitting up local coffee shops and book stores.

Then we wondered down Broadway in SoHo and hung out at local galleries with the awesome folks at ArtLog, who put together art gallery crawls in different neighborhoods.

Out of all the galleries, I like the Gottfried Salzmann exhibit the best.

After a long day of walking around, drinking wine and doing as the locals do, we're spending a much needed day relaxing at home.

How was your Saturday???

Beautiful flowers.

Rainy Weekend: NYC

A few months back we (Jacob and I) planned a trip to Ohio

to catch up with friends and spend a weekend like we were back in college.

But because of work, we couldn't go.

Bummer.

So instead, I planned a really nice weekend in the city!!

I'm ok with that :)

As I write this post, Jacob is getting ready to hop

on the train with me, coffee's and bagels in hand.

We will trek to the city come rain or some shine.

I mean we're from Oregon so it's really all the same thing.

We have a gallery walk and brunch planned followed by

an open bar after party.

This could mean trouble!

Pictures will follow tomorrow as well as a creative post!

What plans do you have this weekend??
