Graduation

Happy Graduation to all you graduates, but the most important one to me this year is Allegra, my baby sister.

At our all-girl highschool, we wear wedding dresses (not a joke!) to graduation. Allegra's graduation was sadly rained out, meaning it was held in the chapel. But, never fear, the sun was a-shining for Maypole. Yes, Maypole, the ancient fertility dance is another highschool tradition. That said, it really is beautiful to watch. 

Congrats Allegra! You looked beautiful!

Way to go, Mom!

There's truly no excuse, so I won't offer one. I think about this blog everyday, often with an idea for posting. But I lack the downtime I used to have and apparently, the discipline. So, my apologies. 

But this is too good not to post. I stumbled across yet another buy-expensive-things-less-expensively-(but still-plenty-expensive) site today called TheFoundry.com. They had decor items from a recent addition of Rue Magazine

My mom is certainly before her time, because we have this table. Way to be 20 years ahead of the curve and already back at the cusp of style (notice how it's sold out!). Maybe one day, it can live in my mod apartment.

Cue waterworks

This "It gets better" commercial from Google is an amazing testament to hope and love. Don't watch without tissue. And really take a second to tune in. You'll appreciate it.
