Wardrobe Wednesday | Chambray & Lace Shorts

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br />Hump day already! Feels good to be so close to the weekend again! I've been trying to wear more of my clothes in different ways to make the most of items already in my closet. My friend Trisa is great at this- she'll have one thing she wears a hundred different ways and I admire how many outfits she can create.  I always wear this chambray shirt with white skinny jeans, so I tried pairing it with shorts to give me another look.  I'm liking this chambray + lace shorts combo.  It's great here right now on days it's not too hot.</div><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: justify;"><br />If last weekend is an indicator of how the summer's gonna go, I think it's gonna be a good one!  We got to hang out at the pool and water park, did some chores around the house and yard, and had our ice cream party.  The party was supposed to be outside, but it rained, so we set up inside instead.  It was a fun time and just the perfect ending to a long weekend. We did end up with way too much ice cream left over though!</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Memorial Day Ice Cream Social

<div style="text-align: justify;"><br />Have y'all made plans for Memorial weekend?  We are staying in town and didn't have any special plans, so after ruling out an overnight road trip, we thought it would be fun to host a neighborhood ice cream social on Monday afternoon for those who are staying in town too.  We've got great families with lots of kids in our neighborhood, but we don't all get together too often unless we run into each other on an evening walk or at the local park.  On the couple occasions we have gotten together, it's been a great time.  We're also inviting some friends from school since we've gotten so close throughout the school year.   Thankfully, we're supposed to have perfect weather this weekend.</div><br /><div style="text-align: justify;"><br /><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
