Mama's Night Out Heyyo!! Sorry for the week-long hiatus. I'm just REALLY, really enjoying my summer already. ;) And yes, I know it's not 'technically' summer yet, but according to Michigan standards, Memorial Day kicks off the sunny season- so there you have it. Our small town hosted its annual festival last weekend and it was great! If you follow on Instagram then you saw that Winston had his first merry-go-round ride 'and' he even tried a nibble of elephant ear. Don't judge.

The weather has been perfect here. 80's and sunny for the most part and I couldn't be more grateful. The sunshine feels heavenly. I'm a summer gal for sure. Last weekend we picked up a new bike trailer for Winston. He loves it. It's adorable to watch him cruising around in it, and it frees up Ben and me to ride our bikes together as a little family.

Since I'm a little behind in posting, all of these pictures were taken at Mama's Night Out at Pottery Barn Kids in the Somerset Mall. My sister came with me and we had a great time. It was a refreshing evening for me and great to hear from several talented mama panelists. They had refreshments, the cutest dessert bar, and swag bags for each mama who attended. What a blast! I hope they do more events like this in the future. I came home with a new bumper pad for Winston's crib. He was bumping his little noggin all the time- not anymore! And naturally, I was having so much fun that I didn't snap a single picture of the actual event. Ugh. Oh well. Here's what I wore... I'm practically living in these overalls lately. Serious. I'm so glad I found these at Gap. I paired them with a plain black tee, bandana, and my new pink lace-ups. Hope your Monday is going well. I'm ready for another cup of coffee! See you back here soon.
