Flourish + Fun

We showered my beautiful sista' Susie with a family shower, themed food, drinks and everything in between as "Sugar & Spice" She's due in early September and we couldn't be more thrilled for her, and to meet our new niece!!! Baby Girl Shower, July {girly, pink + gold, sugar, spice and everything nice!} But first, {decaf} coffee!!! My beautiful Mum and I... Opening gifts, so many cute mini things. :) Cousin Devon and sweet baby Violet!! Cousin Nikki snuggling baby V... Cousins!!!!

We have had a super busy Summer (and it doesn't stop here)!! Right after getting home from Tahoe we turned around a few days later and headed to SF! It was a perfect few days in the bay, including mini hikes, beer+burgers with old college friends, shopping (2 killer pairs of booties for $30, say whattt!?), brunch, dive bars, and a pretty punk rock/hipster/lovely wedding.  Picture perfect day!  Here she comes... The bride! #lucpluscristina They had the cutest mint+peachy decor, so of course we had to goof around with it. Feather flowers forever!!!  This was the morning after the wedding, our starter spread brunch. It eventually contained about 10 more items (peach olive oil cake, omg!), and a full mimosa bar! So many goodies!!

Day 4: ice cream, rain showers---> nana and papas indoor pool time, dinner and a movie.  Day 5: tot spot and stomach bug kept the day pretty low key + some Peter Pan and cousin hang time. Day 6: the best! Emerald bay hike, canoeing, exploring the island, beach time, ice cream, evening pool time, and a fun date night out (winning our girls the pink unicorn was amazing, lol).  Day 7: road trip home and a stop at an amusement park was a great distraction to break up the long drive. 

Day 1: pool dayz, hanging in mom and dads amazing suite, arcade time, and dinner at hard rock! Day 2: picnic and exploring time at the lake, a bit of low key gambling with my sisters, family dinner and marathon late night shows with a splash of Malibu rum!! Day 3: Mini golf, card games, a huge insane hail sto, men's hiking trip, arcade time & sistas night out!!

This was our first low-key Fourth of July (I'm a bit obsessed with holiday fun, so I normally hit up all of the festivities)! But not this year, we decided to tay in town, and relax! We had a leisurely walk this morning, then headed to a baseball game complete with ice cream, nachos, and all the take-me-out to the ballgame fun. I absolutely love baseball, and will never pass up the chance to go to a game. It's always a good time.  Tonight we've been BBQ'ing and having dessert with a few family members, and then watching a movie at home.  Happy fourth to you!!
