Anyone else excited about the long weekend ahead? We’ve got a jammed packed weekend with a road trip to Kentucky to see my nephew graduate from college and a party to celebrate this milestone. I can’t believe how fast time as flown, how grown up he is and how old I’m feeling. It seems like yesterday that he was in grade school looking forward to his high-school years. Now he’s heading out into the big world, starting his own business and making his mark in the world.

I hope you enjoy your weekend and this weeks favorite posts, pins and products.

FAVORITE POSTS

As a child I spent just about every summer on the road with my parents and my brother exploring the country. Traveling by car was the best and we got to see and experience so many amazing places. My love to car travel has continues as an adult and given the time, we’d pick a car over a plane any time. Late spring and summer is the best time for scenic car travel and it’s been fun following Emily and her family on their 3-month summer road trip and get a peek inside their Airstream camper.

FAVORITE PINS

I’m so glad that colorful rooms are making a comeback and love it when someone is fearless with color in their own home. Bold colors really do make a statement and you just can’t help but smile when you look at this kitchen.

Several times a week we’ll have cheese and crackers to snack on and I think I need this cheese board in my life. And since it’s wedding season, I think it would make a pretty fabulous gift too!
