Happy three day weekend!

Can you believe it is already time for labor day weekend!?  I always feel a little torn about the end of summer and beginning of fall... maybe this is because it means that another Chicago winter is on its way! :)  But I am looking forward to sweaters and boots and crisp air... 

I am also looking forward to this three day weekend - love those extra 'free' days.  Hope you have a completely fantastic weekend!

Happy Summery Weekend

Another small bunch of peonies found their way into my living room.  And they are just so pretty.  there is always time for an extra stop on the way home from work to pick up a few peonies.

It is finally feeling a bit like summer around here.  My goal for this weekend is to be outside as much as possible and on Sunday feel happily tired.  Catching up on some photo projects would be excellent too.  Have a good weekend friends; hope you have something fun planned!

Happy Weekend! And Facebook...

Are you ready for the weekend?  I certainly am! Weekends with plenty of time to spend with your favorite person (people) are the absolute best after a crazy hectic week.  That and a glass of red wine...

There have been some fun things posted around the web related to the things I have planned for the weekend so I thought it might make for a fun link sharing round up...

Brunch club: pretty tabletops posted by Ami

Photography: Plate to Pixel book release

Making stuff: Pretty pouch by Holly

Shopping local: Farmers' Market season is kicking off!

And one last link, I created a facebook page so that I can share shop updates (things like that new France series in the shop) and promos and quick shares on photography stuff... stop by and like me if you desire :)

Happy weekend friend!

Internet Forever!

You know how sometimes you hit that point where you should probably take a vacation before you explode? I am approaching that point.  That might be dramatic, but maybe not.  This post on Hyperbole and a Half kind of sums it up, really.  I was completely cracking up last night as I was reading it well past the point when I should have been in bed... Internet forever indeed!

I can definitely relate to falling into the time suck of the internet when rebelling against those grown up things you should be doing.  The guy above was falling into the time suck of scrolling through the blackberry... if leaving the office for lunch why keep staring at a screen instead of enjoying the pretty flowers surrounding you?

And while I usually like to completely leave the Loop behind on the weekends (who wants to spend their Saturday in the neighborhood of their office? Not me!), I am making an exception and heading back downtown to catch this photography exhibit at the Art Institute before it leaves.  My fingers are crossed that it doesn't rain all weekend as we are also hoping to fit in a hike.  A little break from screens is needed!

Hope you have a lovely mother's day weekend!
