Vintage photos: Love.

Art Shay: Gorgeous Photos of a Sweet Love Story

Old and new

We had an amazing time with our families on vacation last week.  I love going back to all of the places I've loved over the years.  Somehow, we managed to hit them all during our week-long roadtrip to KY, IN, and MO.
We started in Indianapolis with our friends from our med/law school days.  They just purchased a beautiful home and were so excited to entertain houseguests.  My girlfriend and I had a blast at TJ Maxx/Homegoods, as well.  However, she has a serious lamp addiction that should be addressed.  I, on the other hand, picked up

Lilly Pulitzer "Charlotte" sunglasses


and a sleeveless pink and green Lilly tunic top, along with a bright pink open sweater, also courtesy of Lilly.



We met up with some old friends for cocktails and dinner before heading south to Evansville for a few days.

We had a great time eating and spending time with my husband's family.  We got lots of sleep, as well.  I'm also pretty sure that we ate bacon five days in a row . . .

More on our vacation later.  Next stop, KY!

On being proud

I. am. so. proud.

Words can't describe how amazing it was to watch my mom walk across the stage at her college graduation last week.  After working for 13 years in human resources, she decided to finish her bachelor's degree in organizational communication and business.  She has worked so hard for the past two years.  I know that she's shocked that she finished.  I'm not.  My mother has always been so determined.  I know that this will open up doors for her that she never thought were possibilities.
