EBN is FIVE!

 We had the best time celebrating EB's 5th Birthday this past weekend.   We hired Elsa from Glass Slippers Entertainment to come and it was the best thing ever!  I know that she will never forget this birthday.  It was so special!

Sunday, on her actual birthday, we went up to the West Farm Corn Maze.

Such a great weekend to kick off October!

Thrifted Recently

Not much going on around here lately.  We have been intentionally taking it slow before our "busy season" kick's off with EB's 5th Birthday this weekend.  So not much to share, though I have had a couple of fun solo thrifting mornings while the girls have been in school.  

Nothing over 5 bucks, here are my recent finds!  

I found these adorable ruffle top/bloomer sets in matchings sizes for the girls and I'm going to embroider some flowers on each one:

--

This Spoleto Festival print is so much fun with all of the detail. 

--

This vintage nightgown is so feminine and breezy, and near perfect condition.

I love this pastel plaid handbag, perfect for Springtime.

IOP Weekend

 We had a nice weekend visit over on IOP with my aunt and uncle!

They rented the most awesome beach house with a pool, and within walking distance to everything (link here)

We spent both Saturday and Sunday on the beach.  We packed lunches and did all the fun beach things: drip castles, mermaid tails, shell collecting.

It was SO nice to walk back, rinse off in the outdoor shower, and then jump in the pool.

Saturday afternoon we walked to Ben and Jerry's and the kids were in heaven.  

Later on K and I got the kids settled and walked down to the Windjammer for a couple beers.

It was SO NICE: the weather, being out without the kids.  I felt more care free than I have in a while.  We MUST do this more often.

Thanks to my Aunt Kelly and Uncle Ralph for inviting us on this nice little "getaway"!
