My lovelies, what are you doing this weekend? Alex's mom and sister are coming into town for a week, and we're going to show off all of Toby's new tricks, including...crawling! (He finally did it!) Alex and I are also excited to sneak off for a bike ride because we're getting seriously rusty and are in dire need of some leg-stretching. What about you guys? Any fun plans? Meanwhile, here are a few fun posts from around the web....
An ode to Tina Fey.
Norway is officially rad.
Loving these red pants. (How cute is Anna in her yellow ones?)
Sweet sleeping lion. (He looks like a puppy.)
Homemade Girl Scout cookies.
Boyfriend jeans done just right.
The funniest kids' quotes.
Remember this Swedish cutie? Well, check out these tights!
Italic poster.
Sea otters are too sweet! (They remind me of this married couple.)
These dishy dish towels cracked me up. (Via DesignCrush)
A few additions to my spring wish list. (So many pretty things out there!)
And a video about how to fix up your bike for the summer.
Plus, three Cup of Jo posts you might have missed:
* 10 best documentaries.
* Wedding ponytail.
* Bedroom makeover.
Have a good one! xoxo

ReplyDeleteOooo a bike ride sounds nice! Hope there's some beautiful scenery to accompany you! Love the Liz Lemon link... she's almost too funny. If that's even possible.
ReplyDeleteThanks for including my cookies in the round-up! And congrats on the crawling critter, better start baby-proofing : ) Have a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteOh my, I m-u-s-t make those tagalongs! Have a beautiful weekend Joanna! xoxo Jane
ReplyDeleteCheck out the video of sleeping otters on Youtube - http://youtu.be/epUk3T2Kfno
ReplyDeleteThere is an adorable moment when one floats over to grab ahold of the other!
A quiet weekend here in Maine- we're really looking forward to it! Hope your weekend is fabulous with that sweet Toby and family.
ReplyDeleteWe're heading off to the 'Virtual' Bahamas tonight! ^_^ "Date Night"!!!
ReplyDeletethat lion photo is precious. Makes me want one for a pet, but I don't think that would work out very well on a ranch full of sheep. :/
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend to you too!
Gosh, I always love the things you post!
ReplyDeleteI just came across a new clothing line and thought you might enjoy it as well, so I wanted to pass it along! I found it through another site, here: http://greeneyed.com/2011/04/device/
I hope you like it and have a fabulous weekend!
Have a great weekend! I'm off to Woodbury Commons tomorrow! It's time to escape the city and it's gloomy weather and get some retail therapy!
ReplyDeleteI'm enjoying probably the last weekend of sunshine in Melbourne, Australia, for the season - we're heading well into Autumn, now! School holidays just started (I'm a teacher) and now I have two weeks to enjoy life and relax! Can't wait!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I checked out your Beso shopping list - you MUST get a Mason Pearson hair brush! It does wonders for my long, straight, fine hair and the quality of it is definitely worth the price. You won't regret it!
I LOVE young mick jagger! Yesssssss.
ReplyDeleteI love that polka dot dress from Anthro on your wish list. I was hoping they would have it in a gold and yellow, because I'm in a friend's wedding come late June. If you stumble across any cute, mustard dresses that would fit the backyard wedding style, please post!
ReplyDeleteI hope YOU have a sexy and awesome weekend! I'm off to cook dinner, see The Dodos live, grab some fresh vegetables at the farmer's market, see a friend's play, watch a sunset and sleep in! The last being the most important, obvi. ;)
ReplyDeleteyour weekends all sounds so fun. (and will do, jen!!)
ReplyDeletea ranch full of sheep = amazing!! and thanks, erica and anna, for the tips!
ReplyDeletelove the red pants!!!
ReplyDeleteI feel like you love Mick Jagger (the younger Mick, especially!) as much as I do. Did you ever see the photo we have of him riding a motorcycle in the 60s/70s? It's in our living room and it is beyond awesome!!
ReplyDeleteThose braids below are so pretty.
Have a great wknd...yay Toby!
I'm going to be digging in my little 6'x4' urban garden. So excited! I have 22 different veggies to get in the ground.
ReplyDeleteI love the girl on the bike tune up video! She's so cool. I wish she was my friend! :)
ReplyDeleteI always love your Friday posts because it allows me to find all sorts of fun new websites!!
ReplyDeleteI would love for you to stop by my blog I write with my two sisters. We like to write about the makings of small town life and all the charms that go along with it. We love what you write and would be so happy to see you over on ours.
Thanks!

so many great links here! But I got stuck on those worn down tights. I don't know... I'm not sure, but I just don't think that's a good idea. I can just feel that this is going to nag at me...
ReplyDeleteI'm pathetically obsessed with sea otters.

ReplyDeleteEnjoy your weekend. And thanks for babyfaced Mick.
I'm watching Morning Glory and wondering if people tell you that you look like Rachel McAdams? I think you do. Hope you're having a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteMy Mum used to do this to my hair as a kid all the time. She would use ribbon.Thanks for a little trip down memory lane. Jade x

ReplyDeleteMy weekend was really nice, took the first swim of the year.
aren't those dish towels fantastic?! hope you had a rad weekend. xo
ReplyDeleteI love that you have Jagger to inspire the Sexy Weekend post. I have had a mojor crush on him since I was a tiny little girl. Funny thing is I was born in '88. I used to hang posters of him all over my room in high school. Total time warp. My friends thought I was crazy.
ReplyDeleteHope you had a great weekend.
