last days of summer

i am happy (cheesin' right now in fact) to report that things are on the up and up. woke up feeling better than i have in... well, since july! **mental note: never wait just shy of two months to go to the dr when you knooow it's not something that will just "go away with time."** ... anyways, enough of that. yup, i'm feeling pretty swell. :)

to top that off, i had a fantastic day with my best. sometimes, a little quality girl time is all it takes to make things right as rain. we started the day out with lunch at Crazy Pita. funny thing, neither of us ordered pita sandwiches lol. sadly, i have not one picture of my beautiful tossed greens salad topped with delicious grilled shrimp. what can i say, i couldn't stop myself from devouring it.

next stop was the pool. i've been itching to bid summer adieu with one last glorious pool day before fall begins its descent upon us. it was a beautiful 95°F, with not a cloud to be seen. now, i realize 95°F might be peak summer heat for many, but since peak heat is 119°F in my neck of the woods, i greet 95°F like a good ol' friend. 

the sun is up. the sky is blue. it's beautiful, and so are you.

sun protection isn't just for the fair skinned :)

summer, it's been swell :)

and that is really the extent of my day. we lounged. talked. met a group of fun out-of-towners. oh, and finished our girly date up by sharing a couple of sweet treats from this bakery that practically cat called our names on the way in (or out?) to the pool. i mean really, what strategy! placing a bakery just feet from the pool's entrance? ingenious!! and bad. very, very bad. they had me at first sight. hook, line, and sinker...

finally wore my bad yogi tank top! no words. just love, love, love. so many thanks to the naked hippie and erin motz for this fun and awesome collab. :)

born to be bad haha

well, that's it for tonight! i hope you are all having a lovely, fun, and crazy (the good kind) weekend. :)
