on friday i saw rain & a rainbow.

saturday was spent inside working on the fall catalog

then dressed up for an engagement party.

sunday morning i had brunch with a favorite person at a favorite place. and yes that is bacon on my plate and yes i did eat a bite or two of it. so what...

afterwards i walked to micheal's to get some crafts - friendship bracelets will be made.

back home i finished my cousins wedding table cards, then sat on the sofa for the premiere of mad men.

once again another productive weekend, doing work for my real job and work for fun, and finally getting to the new michael's. did you get a lot done this past weekend?

friday: pitchfork music festival

saturday: dr. rogan's going away party

saturday night: ashley's bikini bash birthday party

sunday: at home relaxation

friday night i ate some delicious crepes - gouda & apple, banana & nutella. tres magnifique!

i woke early on saturday, 7am, and spent the morning photographing stills in the beautiful light.

by 10am i was out the door, at a cafe enjoying an iced chai and my book 'the learners'.

at noon i walked over to the little farmers market to pick up some flowers, fresh fruit, and bread.

by 1pm i was back home, where i relaxed with my little love. already a tiring day.

at 4pm i regained energy and headed back out for a walk to the new michaels, however it hadn't opened yet. boo. back at home i crafted away using what i had.

sunday morning i enjoyed a yummy breakfast thanks to the farmer's market.

then spent the afternoon at the folk & roots fest where we danced to some venezuelan music

and i got an awesome new strap for my canon. isn't she so hip!

what did you do this weekend? share it by clicking on comment below. i'd love to hear.

sorry for the delay in posting this but between migraines and unbearable heat i have spent my free moments in the bedroom, the only place with ac in the house. i really need to invest in a new lap top so that i can blog wherever whenever. anyway here they are...

i began the long weekend in a nice dress sitting outside having a fabulous dinner with my love.

saturday i spent the day in a bathing suit at jarvis beach...godchild bonding time.

sunday: happy fourth! i celebrated by going to the cubs game

then to a bbq house party

and ended the night on our friends boat watching the fireworks.

monday (my day off) was spent recovering - sofa, fan, water, tv rubbish.

i hope you all had an excellent fourth of july and were able to take a day off to rest.

it was a lovely friday night, perfect for grilling & patio sitting.

after an early rise on saturday we cleaned the house

and put a shelf up and planted another oxalis from the grandma plant - all by 2pm.

after cheering for usa (darn) we ended the night dancing barefoot & sipping sangrias.

i slept in sunday and decided to spend the day at home playing with yoshimi

making packages for people

and looking out the window as the day turned sunny, warm, and beautiful.

i heart summer oh so so much....don't you?
