It's September?

My weekend was the really, really great.  Things are finally starting to feel "normal" again and I am so glad that the summer is almost over!  It was my first weekend in a long time that felt restful... And the best part of it was that I actually accomplished everything on my seemingly never ending "to-do" list.  

My weekend started off with some window shopping and then yoga.  It's been months since I've gone to class and let me tell you, it's good to be back.  After such a long hiatus I'm certainly feeling the effects of plank, down dog and tree pose.  My mother in law joined me and so did my friend Christy.  It was a blast and I really hope they come with me every week.  I'm also hoping my mom will start coming with us.  It would be a really great way for her to de-stress after such a weird summer.  

Speaking of yoga, I really really want to buy THIS shirt to wear to class.  

This weekend I headed to Michael's for some supplies to make a new wreath.  I'm not sure why I love making wreaths so much.  I find it to be a fun, easy and cheap creative outlet.  I'm always so pleased with the way they turn out and I love knowing that I made it myself for a mere 15 bucks as opposed to having bought it for a whopping 40 bucks at Pier 1.  Ridiculous!  








This weekend I also spent some quality time with this handsome face.  Brunello brings me so much joy.  There is something so special about the relationship Chad and I have with him.  It sounds so silly, but I never thought I could love a dog so much.  He's taught me about love and life and I am so thankful for him.  Wouldn't you be too if you had a dog this cute?  






Also, I came home from work earlier this week with a nice little surprise from Chad.  He went out and picked up a copy of Eat Pray Love for me.  Isn't he thoughtful?  I just started it and I'm loving it already.  I've had my eye on this book for years and am so glad to finally have it.  I can't wait to see the movie once I've finished!  



That's all for now.  I hope you're all having a fantastic week!
