Here are five things I loved about the past week:
- The 35th Anniversary Party my sister and I hosted for our parents (read all about it here)!
- Hanging out with my sister all weekend! We shopped, ate and laughed so much!
- Evening storms that cooled off the crazy temps this week.
- The new pillows & decor I picked up for my living room! I’m working on a post on the living room update, coming soon! 🙂
- This video from the Daily Connoisseur about the importance of dressing up for certain events – it’s a great reminder for all of us!
I’m looking forward to a quiet weekend at home – there are several projects I’m hoping to tackle tomorrow! Next week I’m bringing you a fun post with ideas for working some patriotism into your decor, so be looking for that. I hope you have a lovely weekend! Thanks for stopping by the blog today. 🙂
Tell me something you loved about your week!

Here’s what was new on the blog!
Come Home For Comfort 
I’m with you on cheering a weather cool down, as it’s been so abnormally hot here in Nebraska most of June. Saturday evening was refreshing, and I enjoyed a walk at the lakes with my mom and sister. Being Father’s Day weekend, we reminisced about dad’s love for fishing while we walked. (He passed away from kidney cancer almost 5 years ago.) It must’ve been a week for pillows, as I got a new one, too! I have to be really careful because pillows are so fun, but they take up a lot of storage space. 🙂

Sounds like a wonderful week!! I always enjoy spending time with my siblings now that we’re all grown up and busy with our own families. THANK YOU for introducing me to a new youtuber! I loved her video on dressing up for your kids and love all things that address etiquette, manners, and her tag line of every day elegance. I rarely had parents dress up for parent teacher conferences, but I would have appreciated it. Looking forward to watching more of her stuff.

I like her videos (besides her great content) because they are almost like podcasts, you don’t have to be looking at the screen the whole time. I turn her channel on when I’m ironing or cleaning. 🙂
