[we had a new friend hanging out on our deck this week]

It has been another whirlwind week, with every one in the house (except for me – knock on ALL the wood) being sick at one point or another. And you know how mama copes? By getting my first spray tan! HA! Spray Tan City has free spray tans through March 10. And while it may be snowy outside, I’m feeling brighter already.

I just ordered these leggings after seeing a few other bloggers raving that they are dupes for the Lululemon Align pants. Can’t wait to try them out and report back!

I wanted to give a special shout out to my friend Jenny and all the hard work she is doing over at Dogpatch Urban Gardens. New to the DUG lineup this year, are some really amazing workshops. The first one is at the end of the month called, Seeds & Sips in collaboration with The Knotty Nail. Attendees will get to learn how to start seeds for your garden and decorate a plant box to take home. What a great way to welcome spring!
