weekend plans

I cannot wait for this weekend.

It's been a loooooooooong week filled with projects for work, less sleep than usual and absolutely no time for new fitness obsession - CrossFit {remember when I mentioned my rowing teammates and I visited a CrossFit gym in Tucson? I thought it looked scary, and the workouts are, but isn't the point of life to do something that scares you so you can grow?}.

So in honor of finishing up the week in one piece, I'm celebrating by doing {almost} nothing. Tonight I get to hang out with this cutie-pie - and her mom, of course - for a low-key, at-home dinner and a movie.

 

Tomorrow, I get to visit with one of my favorite people and celebrate the fact she just learned she's having a little girl of her own. We'll be heading to Caffe Boa for a yummy brunch. Then in the afternoon, I'll be making my way to the spa for a relaxing 90-minute massage.

Sunday, I have absolutely. no. plans. Hooray! Can you feel my excitement?

What are you doing this weekend?

a sweet shower

I love baby showers. My colleague and friend is having her second child {due on Thanksgiving day!}, a baby girl, and earlier this week, we threw her a surprise baby shower at work.

I enlisted my mom's help in creating a diaper cake and thanks to Trader Joe's, I was able to recreate the salt water taffy skewers that were such a hit at Christine's baby shower.

oh, baby!

Six months ago, my best friend had a baby. We threw her a perfectly pink baby shower

And now her daughter, little V, has a perfectly pink room. Don't you just want to come in and stay a while?
