What I Wore Wednesday

Things have been - uh, busy to say the least here at the L house.  Mr. L has been working like a crazy person.  The extended weekend trip to Myrtle Beach was amazing - but as always, short lived.  We are all looking forward to the Christmas Holiday.   I have been sewing up a storm here.  It's always busy this time of year.  Yesterday I completed 6 skirts in a variety of  fabrics from my facebook {12 Days of Christmas} deal.  Also made these super cute clippies for Emma's best pen-pal - Addison.

 This morning - I caught Whimsy Couture Sewing Patterns was doing a pattern test & I wanted to jump on that so I added that to my to do list.   They came out super cute.  BUT.  Miss Emma thinks they are too big so I may be offering them up for sale soon. :)

 

Also loving these Whale Boots I just finished up for an Etsy Customer.  Super cute in size 12-18 Months.

 Now on to the What I Wore Wednesday part of the post... I started out wearing all of this.  Its windy here today - so the scarf came in handy... but now its 72* out there and I am no longer wearing the scarf.  That & it is super itchy.  The shoes didn't stay on long either - who sews with shoes on?   I love this hair clip - yes.  It is supposed to be Emma's.  But doesn't it look super cute in my hair as well?

 Top:  White Tank layered with a printed long sleeve top both from Old Navy.  On top of all that - a grey light sweater from Khols.


Bottoms:  SO Jeans from Khols, Grey Socks from Target - And new flats from Khols.  Loving the plaid.  {Of course!}  Not loving that they are rubbing my heel the wrong way.  Ugh.  


Accessories:  Poppy Clippie from WCO by Nancy.
Scarf - something my sista gave me.  Not sure where she got it.  But I like it. 

Linking Up With The Pleated Poppy. 

 

Weekend RePlay: Myrtle Beach

We always love this time of the year when we get to go on our Annual Myrtle Beach weekend trip.   I  love staying on the beach and waking up to see the sunrise over the ocean.  Going out to the Holiday Parade at Broadway at the Beach.  Shopping, Football game in the condo while decorating cookies & drinking wine.  Yumm.  This year we decided to check out the new Pirates Voyage dinner show.  The kids loved it.  Pure joy in their eyes.  The seals were super cute.  We were in the front row.  The food was super tasty & the show was entertaining for sure.    This year we decided to take Monday off & having that extra day again this year was amazing.  It made for a much more relaxing weekend & more time at the pool & the beach.  

 At The Broadway At The Beach Shops.  -  Waiting for the Parade to kick off...

 

The Pirates Voyage

 Cookie Decorating Time...

 

Sunday:    Back at the hotel.  Love staying oceanfront & the Bayview Resort has a brand new boardwalk - we love it.  The L Family Loves The Beach...

 {He Loves Me & He Knows It. - Mr. L Don't try to deny those kisses!}

 Me + Him = <3

 A little candid "artsy" shot from Mr. L.  - Jack & I having a chat on the boardwalk.

If this isn't a sign of the end... I don't know what is.  First we come across a dead jelly fish.  Right.  No big deal.  We see them beach side all the time.  But not three feet from it ... a dead bird.  Eww.  Then see this sign.  - Tsunami.  For real.  We should leave the beach if there is one.  Hmmm.  Thanks for the warning.

 

Sunday: Lots of pool time & shopping at the outlets.  Dinner out at Johny Rockets & a movie.  Arthurs Elves in 3D.  What fun. 

Monday: After cinnamon buns for breakfast & packing up all our luggage we had to go down to the pool & beach before checking out.  The little's last request.  - 

 

 When we got home - Mr. L & I were happy to find our pug happy & normal.  Success.  After going with Suite Paws in Raleigh last time & having such a terrible experience we weren't sure what to expect with Knightdale Pet Spa.  But Yay!  He was excited to see us.  Ready for a walk on the trail.  And perhaps the best part.  It was only $38.  Amazing.  Will board him there again for sure.
