Rise & Shine


PhotobucketPhotobucketPhotobucket

Good morning, loves!  And happy Monday! How was your weekend?

Mine was wonderful.  We were at the beach so it was filled with lots of sun, sand, books, beautiful sunsets, ice cream and even rainbows!  It couldn't have been any better.

Now I'm back and ready to start a 4 day work week.  And before I know it I'll be on my back to the beach Thursday night.

Enjoy the start of the week and I'll see you all soon!

xoxo

A 4 day week sounds pretty good :) It's rainy here which equals a lazy day to me. I'm already ready for the weekend again!
