An Update + An Adventure

First the update, I realized with all my waxing about our back to school preparations, I completely forgot to do a Things I Bought Thursdays post -- otherwise know this week as the "Cheater, Cheater, Pumpkin Eater Post." So here goes: I broke my August shopping hiatus with an insanely cute Baby Bean tunic top for Millie (this was before the realization that she has 59 shirts, but I can safely say this one is now my #1 favorite) + two funky pieces of art from the farmers market that I paid a whopping $3 each for!

One of the pieces is a groovy little acrylic paining of a lady and the other is the piece below. It's actually a plate with a glass top and a leather bottom -- so cool in person. It reminded me of the Damien Hurst spin painting from the Domino spread of Johnson Hartig's home...

p.s. no worries, I'm back on the wagon now.


As for the adventure, we have a couple of fun events planned for the weekend -- some more end of (summer) school festivities + Audrey's hosting another sleepover -- but we're pretty much counting down the minutes until we leave on a little family mini vacation... We're heading out for a few days to hunker down with the girlies before all the school year hoopla begins. We'll be back on Thursday, and I'll fill you in on all the details.


What are you up to this weekend?
