bon weekend

You guys, this is what my desk looks like while planning for Paris. Ha…honestly it’s not that much of a stretch. Thank goodness for evernote, pinterest, and google maps. Most of my travel inspiration resides in the digital world now, although I do still (and will always) reference my collection of magazines and books. Even though I’ve explored much of the city over the years, my wish list for this trip is very long…and I’ll forever be discovering it. I’m so grateful for the connections I’ve made via social media, and the amazing blogs I’ve discovered, rich with travel inspiration. So, this weekend I’m leaving you with some links to inspire your francophile adventures…and you can check out my full list of favorites here.

BON WEEKEND!

What an exhilarating and exhausting week it’s been…I’m still catching my breath after a fun + festive photo shoot on Wednesday! Our halls are fully decked and the kids ooh and ahh over the tree lights every morning and night…it’s the sweetest. I was tempted to leave the ornaments off -the tree is so beautiful in it’s simplicity. It’s been freakishly warm this week, which is both a good and bad thing…I’m ready for snow. Bring it on Pennsylvania, bring it on….fingers crossed for a white christmas! I’m a bit behind on my reading this week, but here are a few links for your weekend enjoyment…

jacadi-teddy-bear

 

Doesn’t this face make you smile?! He used to live in Paris, but he seemed a bit lonely so we brought him home with us, long before Marie + Henry arrived. Thankfully they are quite fond of him!  We are packed and ready for a special road trip…believe it or not, they will be meeting their nana + poppy (mr. fleurishing’s parents) for the first time. It’s been way too long, but a series of unfortunate events (and many miles) have kept us from visiting them. We are incredibly excited about it (and also a tad anxious for our first major road trip with the kids)! I’ll be back here next week, but in the meantime feel free to follow our adventures on instagram! Here are some of my favorite links for your enjoyment…

This week got away from me…in all honesty I was struggling with my fibromyalgia-the fog was more intense than usual. I’m not looking for a pity party, just keeping it real here. By the time I got through the day with the kids, whatever energy I had left was spent getting work done and then I would crash…which leaves no time for blogging. Thankfully, I’m feeling more clear headed today, and am ready for the weekend! Isn’t that such a charming little cottage? It’s our home!! I think it looks especially lovely in the fall (thank you Kayla)!  The autumn colors are at their peak, and we’ve all been savoring it-before we know it winter will be upon us. Here are some of my favorite links from the week for your enjoyment…

fall-mums

Oh yeah, it’s time for mums! I’m so happy this time of year-it’s a fact. The leaves turning, the scent of wood-burning fires, and yes ok the pumpkin space latte… all set my heart aflutter. I was born in the fall (my birthday is around the corner), and I’ve always wondered if that plays into my love for autumn. Does your favorite season also coincide with your birth month? I have a magazine photo shoot today (eeek, can’t wait to share), and then we’ll be out enjoying the beautiful weather this weekend. Here are some links for your enjoyment…my favorites from the week. Three cheers for fall!

BON WEEKEND!
