Weekend Recap

Weekend Update

I hope you all had a great weekend! The bulk of mine was spent styling and photographing our pool area for the big reveal. I’m really excited about how everything turned out! I shared this sneak peak on Instagram (although it really doesn’t give much away). 😉

I ended up ordering this one-piece bathing suit (surprisingly it’s the only suit I’ve ordered all year)! I usually go for more of a tankini style, but this one was calling my name. Don’t the patterns look like fabric I would order for some throw pillows?!? It should arrive this week so I’m praying its a keeper.

Saturday was my brother-in-law’s birthday party so the guys did a little golfing in the day, and then the girls headed over to their house afterwards and we all had dinner and played games. It was a lot of fun! He told us to save the date because you don’t mess around for your 50th birthday party 😉

On Sunday, Justin came over and tentatively layed out our paver pathway. We have a bit more rearranging to do (and can hopefully mow the sod soon because it is out of control). But I’m super excited about the look of the pathway!

I finally pulled the trigger and ordered two pool floats that I’d been eyeing for awhile. I got this giant pineapple float:

And I got this giant pink flamingo pool float. The reviews were really good on this particular one (and not so great on competitor version).

We ended the weekend with a few hours in the pool and it was heavenly. We have a bit of a staycation planned over the 4th of July weekend, and we’re really looking forward to those extra few days at home!

Lastly, if you haven’t already, be sure to enter my giveaway for a  20v MAX* Lithium Cordless Drill AND a Circular Saw from BLACK+DECKER. You can enter in this post.
