These last few days have been happily spent resting and relaxing after finishing some intense finals. I can’t even begin to describe how nice it is to have a break and be back at home!
I’ve been catching up with a few of my favorite things, including cooking/baking, exercising, netflix-ing (yes, that’s a verb), and, of course, blogging.
Today, Kyle and I went on a semi-active date and went walking by the beach. It was a wonderful way to spend time together and also stretch out our legs! I did a leg workout today and I’m, to say the least, feeling a little stiff.
Our first stop was by Yogurtland to get a much-needed froyo fix! I underestimated how much room was in the bowl and didn’t leave nearly enough room for toppings. Womp womp womp.
After filling our bellies with the good stuff, we headed out for our walk! It was a bit cloudy and very, very windy, but we still had a great time chatting and enjoying the view.
I took the opportunity to wear one of the new dresses I got over Thanksgiving break and love how it looks! I’m a sucker for anything lace and love how flattering the cut is and how it cinches at the top of the torso. For those of you who were wondering, I got this dress at H&M for a steal! They have a ton of great holiday dresses and I’m excited to get the chance to wear the other two I got.
*Hint hint: Kyle, take me out on a date ;).
Hope the week it passing quickly for you! I can’t believe how soon Christmas will be here and really need to catch up on my Christmas shopping- yikes!
You two are so cute I can’t handle it. I LOVE YOUR DRESS! I’m so into that style too!
Aww thanks girlie! I can totally see you wearing it as well!
I love your lip stick! what a gorgeous color, and love the dress!
Thanks, Cait! I just got the lip stick. I left my entire makeup bag at my apartment so I splurged on some new makeuping tools 😉
I haven’t done my Christmas shopping yet, either! I’m way behind this year. Love your blog!
I haven’t done my Christmas shopping yet, either! I’m so behind this year! Love your blog!
Thank you so much! That means so much coming from a big-time blogger like you!
Big time? That made me laugh!
Oh, and sorry about the 2 comments – my laptop is acting crazy 
Yes, yes, yes! Big time! I’ve been looking through Wishes N Dishes and love all the recipes you’ve posted (seriously, they all look like ones I would choose to make for myself!) and your photography is mouthwatering :).
You’re too kind! Thank you so much!
p.s. I’m obsessed with giraffes
Yay for being on break and being DONE with school for a bit!! There is no better feeling 😉
You’re date sounds absolutely perfect. I mean what could be better than the beach and froyo???
I agree! SUCH a relief to have all my finals done :D.
Jealous – Party of one over here. I wish I could enjoy beach walks instead of snow walks at this time of year!
Haha and here I am, going to the snow for vacation!
Now that is just cray cray talk 😉
Froyo + beach? Sounds like heaven to me 😉 I bet it’s exactly what you needed post-finals. Enjoy your break!!
Thanks girl!
Have fun relaxing!! What a breathe of fresh air
I bet it feels so relieving to be done with finals!
I read the other post with the H&M dresses and they are all so cute, love.
I would definitely be interested in a trick/tips for Pinterest post, if you’re still considering doing one.
Hope you enjoy your break!!
I’ll get that post up soon! I’ve been planning it out in my head, so just have to put thought to keyboard 😉
You guys are adorable! Loving that dress!! I know it’s really sad, but I’ve never had froyo. Ever.
WHAT! That’s absolutely unacceptable! You need to get some froyo asap 😉
The beach looks beautiful!! And that froyo looks delicious!! You guys are so cute btw
Thanks so much, Cailee 😀
How nice that finals are finally over! I missed your posts, girl. Hope you get some time to relax with Christmas holidays coming up. Did you get all presents? I always find that Christmas is both: the most enjoyable, yet most stressful holiday of the year.
I’m so relieved they’re over! Oh and don’t worry, I’ve been taking plenty of time to relax and calm down from all the studying :). I have about half my Christmas shopping done, so at least I’m making a dent in my list haha!
Looking gorgeous as ever, my dear! So happy to hear you’re home and relaxing!!! Soak it allll in and enjoy some much needed rest
As always, you two are just so adorable! I love it
Enjoy the time off, it’s always SO needed, especially at this time of year.
xoxo Jackie
