It's that dreaded day of the year 9/11 - no matter how many years pass, it still feels like it just happened and I remember exactly where I was when I saw the news... In my 11th grade algebra class. I thought we were watching some movie when I walked in and saw the tv on and what was happening. I quickly realized that the horror scene on tv was real - it was unbelievable. As you all know I was born in NY, my dad worked in the World Trade Center when I was a kid and we have a lot of friends and family up there so it hit close to home. And now as a fireman's wife it continues to hit close to home, I can not even imagine what those families went through! It was all so tragic.
To continue in true Friday fashion around here, I am linking up for Friday Favorites and bringing some positive vibes to a crummy day.
one: I am pretty obsessed with the Lulu and Georgia Elodie rug - every time I see it, I get all heart-eyed. It's so beautiful and looks great in all types of rooms: living, family, nurseries and dining rooms!!
three: I'm loving this cute and comfy outfit - it's perfect for when the temperatures start to drop.
four: I may be a little MIA next week as we will be in Charleston, I do have a few posts planned so it wont be totally quiet around here! And don't forget to follow along our adventures on Instagram!
Have a great weekend!! xx
I love that fall outfit! Hope you have a great time in Charleston!
That rug is gorg! I also love Joanna Gaines - going to check out that house tour now :)
I still can't believe it's been 14 years today. Crazy. And totally loving that fall outfit, it is so you! Have a great time in Charleston!

Love that outfit, so cute! I could totally re-create it for a customer at work too. Love Fixer Upper too so I'll have to check out their house! I hope that you have a great weekend too!!
i LOVE Fixer Upper! They make some pretty amazing home transformations. I always tell my husband, I wish they could do a home for us. I absolutely love her style!
I can't believe it's already been 14 years either - it feels like just yesterday. I'm loving that fall outfit, too.. give me alllll of the stripes! Happy Friday!

Goodness, I didn't realize how closely tied you were to the trade center. Thank you to your husband, his department, and all of the men and women who put their lives on the line on a daily basis. Cannot wait for sooonnnn! xx
Have the best time in Charleston! I've never been and I'm just dying to visit there.
Have a wonderful time and look forward to seeing your pics and saying, "Oh, I've been there, I saw that, I know where that is."
Fixer Upper makes me want to move to Texas! No joke. I LOVE LOVE LOVE Chip and Joanna and their work. Can't wait for the new season!
9/11 still shakes me to the core. I remember it more vividly than my wedding day and am so grateful for people like J. Avery just had an assignment where she had to name her hero, and she named her uncle who is also a firefighter. They are few and far between and should be celebrated. Can you please join Snapchat?! I want to see the vacay on video!!!!
9.11 is still such an emotional day for me. I can recall it so vividly and the fear I had. I hope you enjoy your time in Charleston! xo
