Hello The Littlest Things Readers! I am so glad to be here, taking over Sophie’s fabulous blog for a day. Today I’m sharing 6 of my favorite littlest things as well as answering a fun little interview:
What's your idea of a perfect day?
Breakfast in bed followed by a few hours sitting by the sea. Then a long walk followed by a long nap. And ending with a delicious meal and delicious wine with my hubby - preferably outside on our porch. And dessert of course. Dessert is always a must!
"Red Wine! I’m 7 months pregnant right now and man oh man do I miss my red wine. I may have stolen a sip from my husband’s glass a time or two… oops."
"Golf course time with my husband! Somewhat strange considering I don’t really play golf (unless you count taking a swing every now and then and trying to hit the ball as hard as possible). But I love when we “play golf” together. I drive the cart, document our time with my camera, and keep the cooler full all while he plays. It’s one of my favorite times with him because we get to talk and laugh and sort of getaway for a while."
If you could jump on a plane right now, where would you go?
The Caribbean! I'm craving a little rusta in my life right now and I left a piece of my heart in Antigua last summer :)
If you could have one superpower, what would it be?
That I could clean my house with the twitch of my nose...
"Chocolate Milk! I’ve been obsessed ever since I was little girl. When I lived in Spain for a summer the little store down the street from me sold it in a pint size and I would drink one on my way to class everyyyyyyy day. In 110 degree heat might I add. Kinda gross when you stop to think about it, but oh how delicious it was! And I still have a glass every single night. Milk does a body good right? And I think chocolate does it even better."
"The beach! I am one of those spoiled and grateful souls that gets to live 10 minutes away from the beach and just a stone’s throw away from the sound, so I partake in this one a lot. I don’t need all day at the beach. No. Just a few hours where I can sit, walk, reflect, read and tan. Heaven on earth I do believe."
"Saturday mornings with my mom. It’s another thing that I feel so grateful to have. I didn’t always live close to my mama, but now that I do I take full advantage of her time. We like to steal away on Saturday mornings for breakfast and some frolicking while my hubby and my pops do their gym thing. Sometimes that frolicking includes shopping or manicures, while other times it just includes a ride by the ocean and then on home. Whatever in entails, I love it."
What can't you live without?
Cheese! And my husband.
One thing on your bucket list?
To sit by the water on the Amalfi Coast in Italy.
"My puppy in the morning. Don’t get me wrong I love my puppy all the time. But she’s a little crazy (example, she can literally jump up into my sink and use her forearms to pull herself up so she can stand on the counter). Pictured above with no help at all. She’s got that much energy! But in the morning time? She is a cuddly as a cuddle bear can be. And her hair is all crazy and all she wants to do is snooze."
"The nursery that is taking shape upstairs at my house. As I mentioned before, I’m pretty preggies and I can’t wait to meet my baby girl at the end of July. The nursery is just one little act of love that I have been preparing for her and I love it. It’s not ready at all yet. And to be completely honest, most days I do nothing other than sit in her room. Just it in the floor and imagine what her little self will do in there one day. Melts my little heart"
"The Littlest Things" that make you happy?
My husband’s smile. My puppy’s crazy hair. My mama’s laugh. My dad’s comforting voice. All kinds of cheese. Mexican food. Chocolate milk. My baby’s heartbeat in my belly. Bike rides. Red wine. Tailgating at a college football game. Dinner parties. Baking. Blogging. Live music. Picnics. Fresh flowers. Long dinners with friends. Playing golf with my hubs. Celebrating friends’ accomplishments or special moments in life. Afternoons spent in coffee shops. A clean house. Warm towels. Dance parties in my kitchen. Country music. Messy hair. Bold lipstick. Devotions in the morning. Meeting new friends through my blog. Summertime. Sombreros. Move nights at home. Rain storms on a summer afternoon. Getting mail. Learning to take better photos. Breafast for dinner. Mint chocolate chip ice cream. Bubble Baths. Champagne on a weekday. Getting dressed up. My old blue sweatpants. Saturdays.
