Want wayyy too many Gracie and Monica selfies? Cool.




(The sad part is there’s more where that came from. Hahah.)
This weekend we got out to Montauk a little earlier than usual. We killed time by way of…

…yes - that is the most epic slip’n slide you’ve ever seen, and yes – it was as fun as it looks.
The rest of Friday looked a little bit like:



Saturday turned out to be one of the best beach days of the summer…

…complete with getting wrecked swimming in the ocean like 5-year-olds.





On Saturday night we got all dressed up and ready to go…

…before realizing that we were actually exhausted and preferred a night in.

That turned out to be the best decision ever. Sunday morning was just about perfect.


And now…back to the daily grind! As usual, will leave you with some Monday inspiration 
{more scenes from the weekend}
What was the highlight of your weekend?













Looks like a fun weekend! The highlight of my weekend was discovering some very tasty iced coffee from a local grocery store! Who knew the grocery store had such a wonderful treat?!

My friend and I recently found amazing iced coffee at the grocery store too! We were really surprised but it is sooo amazing. A great little find
I’m glad you had a great weekend and the nights in college where my friends and I stayed in were definitely some of the best nights we had at school! And I LOVE your maxi dress!
Thanks! It’s actually Monica’s, gotta give credit to her 😉
What an awesome weekend! You’re so lucky to be able to escape the city for the beach! Thank God the heat wave ended
Your weekends always look like so much fun!
Love your weekend recaps!
I love the black swimsuit! Is it from this season? I have been having trouble finding a bikini that has thin straps that ISN’T a slide-y triangle top, but one where the cups stay put!
Thanks lady! It’s not from this season :/ The bottom is Ralph Lauren and the top is American Apparel. It wouldn’t hurt to check American Apparel, though, because I believe they carry similar swimsuits every season!
Oh yay! Thank you for the tip! Time to online shop! Errrr, I mean, work!
You may have posted this already somewhere, but how do you curl your hair / products? Looks great!!
Thanks Tamara! I do have a post about it, hope this helps

Ahhh Ephesians is one of my favorite books
There’s so much inspiration in that one! Good choice. I love your blog, I’d love a follow back!
Hah! Loving all the selfies 😉
I think your Scenes from the Weekend posts are my favorite- I get to pretend I was there having fun with you girls! Seriously. So jealous of all the adventures you have!
And my phone is always filled with awkward selfies by Sunday night. I think that’s the sign of a successful weekend!
Coffee Tauk…so clever!
