The Weekend: 5 Things

ice cream

Hello!

I hope all of you had such a wonderful 4th of July weekend. This past weekend had me incredibly spoiled with happy hours, dinners, friends, and family!   Can we have 4-day weekends all of the time? Kevin and I have been craving ice cream sandwiches like when we were kids so today  we contemplated at the grocery store whether or not we should buy a box of 12 or a box of 16. In the end, it didn’t really matter because we got what we wanted all along.

I kicked off the four-dayer with Jennie and Ashley for an evening of shopping downtown and happy hour at Elephant & Castle. We also decided to follow in the footsteps of our idol Nicole Richie and her #candidlynicole series by taking a selfie.

We celebrated the 4th of July from my friend Jodie’s rooftop in Seattle! The fireworks show was amazing and the views were stunning. Also, how cute is this little guy?! We love little Gibson.

The weekend wouldn’t be complete without brunch at my favorite spot on Capitol Hill – Coastal Kitchen

Unfortunately, I had to miss Steph’s graduation from Seattle University while I was in San Francisco, but luckily I made it up to her with an afternoon of Bellini”s at Joeys on Lake Union!

It was both a jam-packed and relaxing weekend. I absolutely love catching up with my friends and family and soaking up all of this time here in Seattle during the summer. Congrats again to my friend Natalie on her engagement! And next week I will be saying goodbye to two of my dear friends that will be moving off to San Diego and San Francisco!
