Cinco De Mayo Weekend

Seeing this beauty on Friday evening just made the beginning of my weekend so pretty.  I love rainbows.  In fact, Avery is into them right now & keeps saying that she is wanting me to do a "rainbow" birthday for her in June for her 3rd Birthday.  I'm still trying to wrap my fingers around how I could pull that off?  

Anyway, Friday evening we went to the pool for a bit & enjoyed some time with our girl!  




One of my most favorite things to do is find a bargain.  Whether it be a garage sale, Dillard's, a boutique... I love finding something as a treasure & knowing I got a great deal on it.  I think I have blogged about this once before about how some may find this as "cheap".  I find it fun.  I by no means would call myself cheap.  I will drop $100 on a pair of workout shoes,  (more often than I should it's my fetish),  however life isn't fun if you just blow money on things like it's going out of style.  I workout everyday so I can totally justify that, HA!

Change things up, get creative... I get a thrill out of it.  One of the hardest things I find hard to believe is that some people just drop money on the most ridiculous stuff verses going out & looking for the same thing, possibly different brand but for JUST as cute! It doesn't have to be perfectly said or even a certain brand of style.  Make it your own style!  

So this weekend I found this awesome rug at a garage sale that matches my living room perfectly & it was only $15.00.  It's huge & was never even used.  I couldn't believe it & had to share the beauty!  Momma is proud!




I spend the entire day outside laying out with a friend on Saturday & then Saturday we enjoyed a nice evening out (no kids) to our friends 30th Birthday Bash!  It was the perfect way to celebrate Cinco De Mayo.  We had so much fun singing all night, playing music, laughing & eating tons of food! 

Happy Birthday Daniel!
















































Sunday late afternoon we headed to the park, for ice cream & then to the lake to enjoy the water & play with bubbles!  We gave Avery our entire day to do whatever she wanted!






Happy Week to everyone, love my princess!  Can you believe she is 3 in less than a month???
