Sometimes weekends are just perfect, and this past weekend happened to be one of those. B and I headed to our hometown to celebrate Father's Day with his family and mine. Starting with a cookout on Saturday with B's brothers, their wives and kids, and his parents. I love watching B with his brothers because they are really best friends. Though I don't always appreciate when two of the brothers pick on the third for appearing on his wife's blog... now I'll never get him to come back! Hubba Hubba.
I also got to have an impromptu reunion with one of my best friends- something I very rarely get to do because our time is so scheduled and busy when we're visiting home. Sunday we got to enjoy breakfast with a great portion of my family, and celebrated my Grandpa who at 97 years old is one half of the reason we're all here anyway. And if I do say so myself, I have some pretty great family.
How was your weekend?

I'd like to officially introduce you to my friend
Erin of Loop Looks. She was kind enough to
guest post for me a couple weeks ago, but I thought it might be fun to get to know her better. Erin lives in Chicago and blogs about dressing for the professional world in the "Loop". I really appreciate Erin's blog for the daily work outfit inspiration on a non-designer budget-
occasionally with some fun sparkle thrown in. The pieces she blogs about are pieces we can actually afford without selling our homes. Every Wednesday she also does You Pick Wednesday where she answers reader questions like
this one on when to wear nude shoes. Erin is real, and easy to relate to (case in point:
this post) and I just know that you'll be able to gather all kinds of inspiration from her blog.
Stop by and tell her hello!
