I'm back!

Sorry for the long break from blogland. Things have been pretty busy around our house and yet again the blog was put on the back burner.

Here is a little recap of what we have been doing over the past several weeks.

I went on a Ladies' Fishing Trip a few weeks ago at the coast. We had a blast! There were 7 of us with 2 guides and we limited out in 3 hours! We had mimosas at sunrise. We also enjoyed dinner at a resort right next to our neighborhood. It was a much needed weekend with friends!
My big catch.

 At the end of the trip. We did pretty good!

 I think we look pretty good with all of these fish!


Enjoying a little champagne as we watched the sunset.

I have also made a few purchases from BaubleBar, finally!! I could not be happier with the necklaces I've bought. They are both great quality and quite inexpensive! 

Here is what I have bought so far.

{BaubleBar Onyx Phoenix Necklace}


{BaubleBar Pastel Ziegfeld Necklace}

and here is a necklace I bought from Furbish. I love it!!

Here is another picture of me wearing this necklace. I'm loving coral this year!
{Furbish Groves Necklace}
The color I bought is sold out, but there are two other color options available.

 We have spent lots of time at the coast over the past few months and I'm loving every second of it!

A few weeks ago my FIL brought us in on a little surprise for my MIL's birthday. He bought tickets for The Piano Guys at House of Blues. It was AMAZING!! She was completely surprised and we all had a wonderful time! If you haven't heard of The Piano Guys you MUST check them!!

Watch this video, you will be amazed!


 


Here are a few pictures we snapped before the show started.
{the hubby & I - yep, here's my Furbish necklace again} 


{my wonderful in-laws} 


{I love that my MIL and I are so close!}



I'm loving all of my statement necklaces this year!! I also can't wait to wear more bright colors this summer! These shorts are from Loft and the perfect fit and length! Check them out {here}.

This past weekend the hubby and I drove up to Dallas to see my family. We had not seen my nephew in nearly two months! That is way to long! He is growing up so fast and we just couldn't get enough of him!! I took over 200 pictures this weekend and will share some of my favorites with you!

{I did not want to put him down!}


Here are a few pictures of my sister & baby E. They warm my heart. She is such a natural Mother. I just love watching them together!




He is always smiling and so happy! 


Our fur baby Lady just loves kids and was so gentle with baby E. 
She is going to be amazing when we have our own children!

My sister, her hubby and baby E. They are the most perfect family!

We wrapped up our weekend with Mother's Day. I love my Mom more than anything. She has been not only my Mom but also my friend and I couldn't ask for a better role model in her! Her & my Dad have been married for 39 years and have been so successful not only in their marriage, but with raising two daughters. 
Love you Momma!!
I'm so mad at myself that I didn't get any pictures of my Dad or my parents together. Boo! I won't let that happen again.

Finally, I will leave you today with our Lady. She just sat there and posed for me this weekend so I didn't want to leave her out! 

Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend!

Linking up with Leeann.
