Happy Friday, lovelies! We've made it to another weekend and I can't wait to get it started.
I'm not heading to the beach this weekend but I will be getting out of the city on Sunday to go celebrate Father's Day with my family at my grandmother's home on Long Island. The weather is supposed to be perfect and I'm thrilled because that means lots of time outdoors in her picturesque yard. She has the most gorgeous gardens ever and I just love spending sunny spring and summer days there. And it's always so nice to get together as a family to share stories, eat some delicious food and drink amazing wine. My Dad is a huge wine guy. He's been a conoisseur for years and he travels the globe visiting friends vineyards, helping harvest and distribute wines, and he always has a fantastic selection of varietals to choose from and a lot of interesting stories to go along with them.
Hope you all have a lovely weekend. And wishing all of the father's in your lives a very happy Father's Day!
xoxo

so this year, i got really confused and thought father's day was last week so sent my card like, super early... i told my dad not to open it until father's day but then last night i got a text from his wife saying that they LOVED the card (it WAS pretty neat, if i do say so myself) but, what the heck! it's not father's day yet!
i want to be sitting on that patio- lovely! my dad is a big wine guy too- happy father's day to your dad and enjoy your weekend!

Lovely post! Having those memories must be such a sweet thing. I love every photo here.
It sounds so lovely! I love wines, so even more heavenly. And looking at the last image with the brick patio is inspiring me--I always get swayed by brick used this way right when I'm thinking of re-doing the back patio in flagstone.
Thanks for stopping by my blog today!
