memorial day
pants: zara, shirt: j.crew outlet, bracelets: gifts and tallulah's, flip flops: because it's too hot for shoes
Memorial Day weekend! The great three-day kick off to summer! What did we do? Studied cleaned the apartment. Watch out party people! Mr. F started a GMAT prep course last week which has upped the ante on his already intense study schedule. I marvel at his stamina and determination. His knowledge of math grows every day and I'm constantly amazed by it. He's going to ROCK this test, I just know it!
Well, a three day weekend gave him extra time to prepare which gave me time on my own to get some new prints together (gah! they're so cool!! just wait till you see them!!!) and tinker around the house. Monday morning we did wake up and go for a long, rambling walk around Piedmont Park in the heart of Midtown. I wandered through parts of the urban forest I had not seen yet and I was reminded again of how much I love this city. It was so nice to be with my husband and to have time to just catch up. To top off the morning we celebrated being American with a giant breakfast at Waffle House. It's really getting embarrassing how often we eat there...
To top off the weekend, I met up with a few ladies for some ice cream for a friend's birthday. A quick hour of conversation, some melty, summery, creamy goodness, and the holiday came to an end in the most wonderful way. Real life is back, bringing with it laundry, errands, and more studying. No barbecues for us yet, but summer just started and I think it's going to be fun!
p.s. what do you think of my little potted garden? it makes me so happy to come home to so much green! the pots are full of lettuces, herbs, and some zinnias to fill vases with once they grow.
