Embracing The Outdoors

nullnullnullnullnullnull

Good morning, sweets! How are you all enjoying this lovely week?

Like I said yesterday, I'm relaxing and taking it easy and finally getting back into a normal pace of life. The days are lighter and brighter, the trees and flowers are starting to bloom, and all I want to do is be outdoors as much as possible {minus yesterday morning during the cold spell we experienced! Luckily it warmed up by afternoon :)}

I'm longing for walks in the park, dining outdoors and who knows, maybe even a picnic if we're lucky enough. Hoping to experience one or all of these this weekend.

Are you taking advantage of lovely weather these days?

Have a wondeful day, loves!

xoxo

  5. It has been a bit too cold this week here for my liking. Last week was beautiful and I spend most of Friday outdoors. I went for an hour 1/2 walk with a friend... it was divine. The forsythia and pear trees in my yard are blooming early this year and that makes me happy! xo
