Sunday Happenings

This weekend has been absolutely gorgeous in Atlanta! We've finally made it to be consistently over 70 degrees during the day, so this Florida-girl is happy!

We had a friend's wedding Friday night at the Foundry at Puritan Mill which was absolutely stunning!! Great to see friends and the beautiful couple we've known since college.

Saturday, I went to Pure Barre in the morning and Houston went golfing to enjoy the beautiful weather. We had the BEST date night :) Since the weather was so nice, we had a glass of wine out on our porch (my first glass of rosé of the season we found at our neighborhood wine shop), then we grilled out and made steaks, corn and potatoes that were delicious! Then we finished season 4 of House of Cards. Have anyone else been watching?

I went to Pure Barre this morning and today, I might try to do some yard work and then we'll go to church then dinner with some friends.

Here's a few Sunday Happenings from this week!

Springing Forward
In case you missed it - our clocks sprung forward an hour last night! I absolutely LOVE daylight savings time. It really makes the days feel so much longer and I enjoy having more daylight after work to go for a walk in the neighborhood or just be outside on our porch.

Looking forward to the longer days ahead as we head into Spring and Summer. My Pure Barre class at 9:00 this morning was pretty empty, I think everyone was sleeping in a little!

Herb Garden

I've really been wanting to plant a small herb garden so now that it's warming up, I'm hoping to plant some soon. I found this helpful article from Home Depot's Garden Club I'm going to use. I've never been very diligent at keeping up with plants, so maybe this will help me turn a new leaf.

Mini Donkeys

Houston sent me this Buzzfeed article this week about 20 Mini Donkeys for sale. You have to look at these pictures, they are the cutest things I've ever seen and I want one so bad to play with our future puppy!! I've already named our future mini donkey.

Nancy Reagan & Ronald Reagan's Love Affair

It's no secret the love affair that was between Nancy & Ronald Reagan. There was a beautiful love letter he wrote her one Christmas that was read at the former First Lady's funeral this week. The video from the service is posted on Fox 2 Now, here's a snippet of the letter below.

Fortunately, all these women in my life are you — fortunately for me that is, for there could be no life for me without you. Browning asked; “How do I love thee — let me count the ways?” For me there is no way to count. I love the whole gang of you — Mommie, first lady, the sentimental you, the fun you, and the peewee power house you. 

Merry Christmas you all — with all my love. 

Lucky me.

What a beautiful love they shared, over 50 years of marriage. I just love how you could see how much Ronald Reagan adored her.
