Enjoying Nature

Hi everyone. As we all know; Fall is here. It is my favorite season of the year followed by Spring then Summer, then good Old Winter! I'm not so excited that the winter is around the corner even though it is a season to showcase all those fabulous fashions; boots, scarves, jackets and sweaters. I just love the beautiful and awesome colors of fall. As nature transitions and gets ready for the freezing weather, it puts in full display its greatest and most wonderful colors. The cool chilly breeze is also very bearable and the clean crispy air is just therapeutic. One of my favorite things to do at this time is to just take a walk and take it all in. I hope you are enjoying Fall wherever you are and for those who do not have the Fall season, just take some time out to take a walk while you enjoy the marvels of Nature. God made all things beautiful.

                        Thanks so much for reading and enjoy the rest of the weekend.

PS: I will be making some changes to the blog very soon. I'm thinking of using a new layout and would be keeping my fingers crossed on the outcome.

Weekend Finale

 

 

So, I have been trying hard to get my relaxation on after my last weekend gigs...:) and I am super happy for my friend for clocking the big 4-0 in style. For a recap, she started her birthday weekend on Friday night when she hosted a big dinner party for her family most of whom traveled all the way from the UK, Africa and outside of MN for the birthday celebration. Saturday was the actual birthday party which was an all night event for adults only and we had so much fun! Then the kids were incorporated into the celebration on Sunday with a barbecue and there was so much food to eat and lots of dancing and inflated castles for the kids to play in. These pictures are from the Sunday Finale event and though they are not that clear (as usual...:)) but I'm glad I was able to take pictures during the event considering that I was running around those kids all evening just to make sure none of them got in trouble...:)

 

Keeping an eye on the kids as they bounced around; children/kids are the most beautiful little people ever...:)

Matthew 18: 1-4

At that time the disciples came to Jesus, saying, “Who is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven?” And calling to him a child, he put him in the midst of them and said, “Truly, I say to you, unless you turn and become like children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Whoever humbles himself like this child, he is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.

Jolly Summer

We are having  a gorgeous weather today  and it is just the perfect weather to be outdoors enjoying the sun. I stopped by at McDonald's to get the mango and pineapple smoothie and hit the stores for some window shopping while trying to enjoy my mummy time.  The summer is going great so far and I am enjoying each day as it comes. It is starting to get a little chilly in the evenings and early hours of the morning though and we can not deny the fact that the cold season is gradually creeping up on us.

 I'm almost done with my shopping for the fall and winter season and I know I'm ready to weather any storm...:) I got some cute scarves and cardigans  from Loft, booties and sweater dresses from Victoriassecret and  tights from Express. Now I have a couple of get together to attend this weekend and I am still thinking of what to wear. Funny how a lady can have a closet full of clothes and still be at a limbo. I hope you guys are enjoying the jolly summer. Thanks so much for reading and stay blessed.

Keeping cool...

This Summer heat wave that is going on around the country, caused me to make some changes to my wardrobe recently and the changes included getting some extra clothing pieces that really scream summer or should I say "heat wave!"...:) This pink sheer top and black shorts are some of the pieces I got. I never really liked putting on shorts (at least not outside the confines of my home) but after the dangerous heat that I experienced last summer despite excessive air conditioning, I decided to do something about it this year.

This pink sheer high-low blouse was gotten from a neighborhood departmental store called Deb. They had a summer clearance sale a couple of months ago and I was glad that I got to know about it on time. I stocked up on a couple of light fabric blouses and got shorts in different colors. This black pair with fold-ups at the knee are from H & M. Thankfully, the shorts were just the right length for me; not too short and stopped right at the knees. The pink blouse has a V-cut at the back but I decided to wear a racer back tank top underneath. I still want to be modest even though I want to keep cool...:)

I broke out some sweat in the few minutes I stayed outdoors taking these pics...

Aside from the heat another reason I have for stocking up on light and breezy pieces this summer is because I want to feel as comfortable as I can as my mid-section expands...:) Yeah, we are having a new addition to our ever growing family and our little angel is due this winter. So, do not be surprised to see pics of my growing mid-section on the blog; and of course! baby bumps are trending...:)

Thanks for reading and please stay cool by drinking lots and lots of water and staying indoors where there is air conditioning. Wearing light breezy clothes is a must! and occasional splash in the pool does not hurt a thing!! Be safe in all you do and God bless.
