Sun shining.

Stroller pushing.

Flower-stealing from the neighbors.

It's been that kind of weekend. 

Dear husband has been renovating our guest bathroom, and he is a non-stop, don't slow down for anything kind of hard worker, so most of my time was spent with Ellery enjoying the springtime.

Since the weather was g.l.o.r.i.o.u.s all weekend long, we spent our days enjoying the sun and taking advantage of our neighborhood. We walked across the street and clipped (with their permission, of course) a few beautiful blooms off our neighbors viburnum. Then spent a while after scattering filled mason jars and bud vases around the house, adding a semi-Southern Living kind of charm.


We also took advantage of our front porch. Stopping daddy long enough to have a short picnic on the swing.


While the grown-ups ate, Ellery played patiently in her newest form of entertainment. 


After lunch, mommy and daughter took a stroller ride down the road to Selman's Jewelers to drool over their latest shipment of bracelets. While Ellie napped, I visited with the owners, who happen to be our neighbors and friends. 
 


Later in the evening, Justin put the hammer down for the night, and we joined a bunch of our friends around a boiling pot crab boil and special seasonings and indulged in Mississippi's version of Lowcountry Boil.


It was perfect.


Ending a beautiful spring day surrounded by friends, their guitars, and a whole lot of laughs was exactly the ticket to a wonderful weekend.
