A big happy birthday to my dad! I am blessed with a wonderful father and I wish him the best birthday yet!
Happy birthday Pops!!! Love you and miss you!
Today my niece turns 16. Before you start thinking I’m old, I was only 9 when she was born. Granted, I still feel ancient when I think of my 16 year old niece beginning her junior year of high school in a few days. She is beautiful, amazingly smart and very talented. For as long as I can remember she has absolutely loved horses, so when she got riding lessons for her 10th birthday we knew she’d be hooked for a while. I don’t think any of us realized how good she would be. This girl takes home more ribbons than I ever thought possible… and she does it in a way that blows those hoity-toity equestrian girls out of the water.
In honor of this cowgirl niece of mine, I bring you some great equestrian finds. Enjoy!
I’m not going to lie, despite being a bit afraid of horses, I am really loving that horseshoe necklace!

This card is absolutely perfect for my dear friend Abby on her 25th birthday. Because you know what? I am so freaking glad she was born. I couldn’t imagine not having my Abby in my life… she is such a doll. When she found out I hadn’t read Peter Pan yet, she had it sent to me almost immediately. She sends J and I little gift cards and demands that we use them only on things that are fun. She gets me in trouble in class for chatting too much in the back {yes, we were seniors in college}. She understands that sometimes the best night is downing a tin of popcorn while watching Disney movies. Oh and she also sees the beauty in a long walk on a snowy, 10 degree day.
So yeah… Abs? I’m very much glad you were born.

A big thank you to everyone who helped me celebrate by 25th birthday yesterday! It was such a wonderful day, simple though it was! I am so humbled by the sweet comments on my posts and on twitter that I received from all of you. You are all too sweet. If I could, I would send all of you a bouquet of brightly colored daisies, the friendliest flower
Do you have any big plans for the weekend? Do tell! I hope its warm and sunny where you are!
I’ll be wearing this…
… and we’ll all eat this.
We’ll play with these…
in a room filled with some of these.
We’ll end the day with dinner here.
We’ll be drinking some of these…
and topping it off with some of this.
I’ll give you a little party favor…
and say thanks for helping me celebrate my twenty-fifth!
