Mo Pie, Please: bridal shower

The weekend, wahoo! What are your plans? I know I'm a little late with this post and most of your weekends are in full force right now, but I'm still curious! My friend Megan is in town from Brooklyn for her bridal shower and I'm anxious to see her, give her a hug and eat some good finger foods. The weather is supposed to be warm, but after these last few days it's kind of hard to believe that to be true. But here's to hoping that we Chicagoans get to enjoy sunny skies and 70 degree temps! We deserve it, you know?

Other than the shower, not much is planned. A trip to the grocery store is in order, I want to read a ton of my current book (Skinny Legs and All by Tom Robbins) which Gus is really enjoying too (I like to read aloud and every single time I do, whether he's in one of his crazy moods or not, he'll immediately come plop down next to me and doesn't get up until I stop!) and we'll probably watch some more Breaking Bad season 2...my oh MY is it good. Whatever you get up to, enjoy every last bit of your weekend!

As summer approaches, the planning picks up. My M-O-H, Gracie (a beloved friend of mine for the past 9 years) is getting married just two short months ahead of me and I've been really excited about the fact that we get to share this time together even though we're miles and miles apart. It's been so awesome to share ideas with her and to help each other find what we're looking for, because we're both constantly looking. Because her wedding is coming up so freaking fast, it's high time to get into full on party planning mode. I'll be working closely with her other bridesmaids (that means you, Jess, my love) on planning her bridal shower/bachelorette party and I couldn't be happier about it. I mean, just look at all the inspiration that is out there!
