Happy 4th!

Adorable things from J. McLaughlin

I love how it just hangs (still have baby bulge around my waist)


My arms are so not in shape for this cute top!



I already have this in blue and love it!


We just got back from a short trip to here with the swim team. It was a great group of moms (some dads) and children. It was just Mr. 6 and me. Miss Priss was with my Mom-she has been told she has to be 4 to attend, so next year she will be in tow. It was a quick trip , because I can only walk around in my bathing suit for so long!
We then headed to Richmond to take my mom out to dinner for a big birthday she is celebrating! We took her here.It was yummy and a great place to celebrate a special occasion. Hubby and I had not been there in several years. I forgot how delicious the cream corm is!
We had a great 4th of July on the water and visiting with family. If only I had time to do some shopping, as it looked like every store we drove by in Richmond was having a big sale. I have many favorite shopping destinations, but one is J. McLaughlin. The first store that I went to was in New York city several years ago and now Richmond has one. We stopped by for ice cream on Friday night right next to J. McLaughlin and I got to do some window shopping. Looked like lots of cute things and many things on sale, so maybe next time I am in Richmond-I will get to stop by.

Shades


I have had fun shopping for shades for my sconce and bathroom. Here are just a few that I found on the Shades of Light website. If you are ever in Richmond, Virginia it is worth your time to stop by Shades of Light. It is a beautiful store with so many things to see. Not only do they have lamps-they have rugs, mirrors and furniture. They also have a catalog they send out that is always fun with lots of decorating ideas. Once I have chosen my paint color and my fabrics I will choose a shade. The pink shade above is from Vera Bradley. I didn't know they were into shades now. What next??




The zebra is fun and I would love to incorporate it into my look. This bathroom needs as much help as it can get.
