Sister's in Seattle


Hello!
This past weekend I visited my wonderful sister, Tegan, in Seattle, WA. Well technically Edmonds, WA but it all feels the same to me! My sister is my best friend, not only because she is my sister, but she is just a fun and amazingly kind person. We had a great time watching her boyfriend's baseball game, eating amazing Italian food (that was super cheap due to their fabulous happy hour menu) and snuggling in bed (Just kidding-Tegan hates snuggling, so it was more me snuggling with her PomChi, Harley).
Beautiful Seattle day's make perfect weather for watching some baseball!
Absolutely. Fantastic. Amazing. All describe their happy hour- gnocchi for $4.50 is OK in my book!
Sunset in Edmonds, WA- if you ever get a chance make sure you visit- it always feel so romantic, and lovely.
The beautiful newlywed!
First glass of wine I have ever ordered. Hello being an adult.
You haven't lived until you have had sushi on a conveyor belt.

I Gave You All

My weekend was a very good one. Full of family, friends, and......lots of mud. I did a 10k race called the Dirty Dash. Check it out here: The World's Muddiest Race. Seriously, check it out! I had so much fun despite being forced to do this race by one of my friends. In the end I was absolutely covered in mud and exhausted, but still had an absolute ball. Here is my weekend in photos:
On Friday night I went to the Spokane raceway. It was fun, but oh boy the crowd was very interesting to say the least.
Two of my favorite necklaces I love to pair together. Turquoise makes me happy.
Honestly can you ever go wrong with leopard print?
The steak dinner my family and I had on Saturday. Cooked by my stepfather- he has saved us from eating out every night!
Before the race reppin' my team shirt. I haven't received my pictures back yet of what I looked like after, but I will post when I do. Definitely did not look anything like this.
This weekend was fun and dirty....just like I like it! What did you do this weekend? Hopefully it was as great as mine!

Let it Sparkle

This past week was full of fun, birthday festivities. This girl (meaning me!) turned 21 and I am still alive! Over the past weekend I went over to Seattle to visit my sister, and celebrate my coming of age. She let me borrow this fabulous gold sequined shirt. Needless to say I brought the sparkle! 
My big sister, Tegan. This girl adores anything bright and sparkly. 
My birthday shoes (Steve Maddens) and a clutch my sister got for me. The clutch is this beautiful light pink with big jewels lining the top. 
Bahama Momma drink at this cute Tiki theme bar in Edmonds, WA. Since we told everyone it was my birthday they felt the need to make my drinks extra strong.
My sisters college roommate, Emily, is always a good time. She also appreciates my love for cats!

Seriously this birthday was amazing, and full of wonderful friends and family. I am not a huge fan of my birthday and making a big fuss out of it, but it always makes me feel incredibly blessed to have such wonderful friends and family!
