Lots going on this weekend! With St. Patty’s Day right around the corner, tomorrow is the St. Patty’s Day parade! Last year they gave out tons of candy, so I’m pretty excited about that :) Plus it’s supposed to be 62, yay! Later, I’m going out with the girls to Ode to Food and Drinks, so pretty anxious for some girl chatter and to get dressed up! Hope you have a good weekend and have some green beer!

Hello! We are rounding out February this weekend! It’s gone by so fast. With leap year (Feb 29) on Monday then March 1 Tuesday! Holy moly! The weather is looking up and I am SO ready for Spring. I just want my flowers to pop and the grass to grow. I hate this ugly in between winter and spring part. Surely it will come soon enough! Meanwhile, I decorated for Easter this week with a trip to Target. So many cute eggs (like these and these!) and baskets! I love pastels and they’re so cheerful after a dull winter. Anways! No plans for us this weekend. Leo started crawling yesterday so I’ll be keeping my eye on him every second now! EEEEK! Hope you have a fabulous one!

Valentine’s Day is near! I want to wear this sweatshirt all weekend! We actually don’t have any plans. Boo hoo, I know. But we just got back from the Bahamas (see our trip here) so we just had plenty of dates. Maybe a yummy brunch at Josiah’s is calling my name. Lots going on around downtown Sioux Falls though! I think the delicious prix fixe dinner at M.B. Haskett sounds to die for. But yeah, I’m laying low this weekend, still getting in tons of hugs and cuddles from missing my favorites. Hope you have a great Valentine’s Day! XOXO
