inspiration: office space.

hello, hello...and how are you?
i'm getting excited about the warm weather & all the awesome things EBV has going on this summer, & i've decided today that i'd like to redo my office space. as much as i love our house, i don't have as much office room as i have had in the past, so it will definitely be a challenge. here are some inspirational photos i dug up...aren't they lovely?
cheers,
savannah

sunday loves: mama edition.

happy sunday, friends!
happy mother's day to you! i have had a lovely day being mama in this house! the boy woke me up to a lovely surprise...a breakfast in bed tray...complete with my favorite breakfast (eggs over medium & homemade blueberry cheesecake muffins), juice AND milk, a beautiful vase full of flowers, a sweet card, my favorite magazines & my sunday paper. (sunday is the only day of the week i read the paper.) since we are currently sharing a car, he couldn't go get my surprises last night, so he woke up at 5 am, snuck out of bed to get all that stuff & come home & make my breakfast. it's been two years & i still fall more in love with him everyday. anyway...















...and then he comes downstairs drinking his coffee in this. i, of course, laugh at him. that boy is ridiculous sometimes!




















so i spent the rest of the day doing a little bit of work & then playing & relaxing with presley, who has been an absolute doll today. that little one rode her bike today for the first time without any training wheels!

my mama kind of abandoned me today, but i still love her. (a joke, not really. she & my dad & my grandparents are vacationing in europe. i did get a very sweet card in the mail from my mom yesterday, but at $8/minute, i didn't really expect a phone call! they will be home in a few days & we will celebrate then.) my mama is the most awesome person ever. and she is quite beautiful, if i do say so myself. (the baby is presley, not me.)













































































and these are my grandmothers. i am so lucky to still have both of my awesome grandmothers alive.


































and one of me & my baby:




















and here are some other beautiful mamas i found:

just flat awesome.

happy saturday, my loves!
one of my favorite trends for summer are ballet flats. i just love them. they are so simple & so chic & so perfect with so many outfits. i love, love, love a good high heel, but ballet flats will always have a very special place in my heart. here are some of my faves.

i wish.

hello there...and happy cinco de mayo to you.

well, i was a little bummed when i sat down to blog tonight, because "i wish" wednesday posts are typically some of my favorites & i didn't get to it yesterday because i've been so busy. like really busy. between taking the kiddos to the beach & planning these huge vendor undertakings that i've signed myself up for, i've just been going full speed ahead. i'm vending wakarusa the first weekend in june, bonnaroo the second weekend in june, & most likely something else still in the works the third week of june. june 2011 may be the busiest month of my life.
so anyway, i sat down to compose tonight's blog entry when something occurred to me: i'm in charge here. i can post wednesday's blog on thursday if i feel like it. and guess what? i feel like it. :)

i wish i had these shoes. all of them.


















i wish i thought to wear red lipstick more often. it's so sexy. also, i wish i had those amazing sunglasses.


















i wish i had this love nest.












i wish it was time for the fair again. we <3 the fair!









i wish i had this sign for my kitchen.














i wish i had this sharpie collection. i love sharpies.













i've never really been into tattoos. they just aren't my thing. i can appreciate them on other people. it's just not for me. the boy in the rock & roll band & i have been discussing love tattoos lately. i may do it. i may not. i like the idea. i like the thought of having something small & non noticeable that's just between he & i, but in the end, i'll likely stick with my "it's not my thing" stance, which will make what i'm about to say sound pretty strange. i think these arm sleeves are so cool. i guess i should wish i had the balls to do this & then extra balls to suffer through getting it removed when i decided i didn't want it anymore.


















i wish i had this dress. i love it.


















that is all. goodnight, friends.
cheers,
savannah marie

weekend in review: the big surprise.

happy monday!
we sure did have a lovely weekend. i hope you did too! we surprised the heck out of the kiddos. we told them we were taking them on an adventure, but wouldn't tell them where. we loaded them up in the car super early & headed to the beach. they slept most of the way, but we did get a little laugh when we stopped at a gas station about 10 miles out of orange beach & presley wakes up, looks outside & sees a palm tree & a seagull, pokes lucy & says "wake up, lucy! i think they took us to hawaii!" maybe not hawaii, but it sure was fun. makes me REALLY want it to be summer! here are our photos. please note the super adorable matching bikinis.
peace & love.
