{ making me smile... }

Happy Friday! What are you doing this weekend? Bella came up with the idea to tutor younger kids and she's been working on "lesson plans" all week. She invited a couple of little ones to come over Saturday so she can test out her teaching skills. So cute! Here are some other things making me smile...


Gathering for family birthday celebrations this weekend.


Making Valentines with Bella. We've narrowed it down to these or these. I love Nichole's idea too.


Why French Parents are Superior. An interesting and worthwhile read. What do you think?


Planning a surprise pink breakfast for Valentine's Day.


This haircut. Tempted! {Love her outfit, too.}


Enjoy your weekend. Meet you all back here next week.

{ inspired interiors: dreamy whites }

Hi everyone! I missed you yesterday. Did you have a good weekend? I had planned to start a painting project over the weekend, but I realized I still needed to do some more organizing so it was more purging and cleaning. I'm ready for that to be done already! I did take some time to browse a few blogs and Pinterest, which is where I stumbled upon Maria's lovely home. Maria owns the appropriately named, Dreamy Whites online shop and lives with her husband and 5 children on a horse ranch in California.

Honestly, I haven't been able to get this home out of my mind. It's images like these that make me want to bust out the paintbrush and paint everything white. Maria makes it look easy, but she does an amazing job carefully editing the elements in her home, mixing in different textures and subtle tones to give her spaces more depth and interest. When you have a few moments, you must browse the beautiful Dreamy Whites blog and french farmhouse inspired shop--hours and hours of eye candy!

Have a beautiful week!
