1. I found this necklace at Target for $2 and my aunt was with me when I bought it. When she saw me carrying it around she said, "Are you buying that because you like it?"
I had to convince her that I actually liked it and thought it was cute.
2. I bet you thought I was going to be wearing these orange sandals that I resort to just about everyday. I actually put those on first, and then decided that I should probably give some of my other shoes a chance.
3. And this is as close as I can get to the "blogger bun" or the top knot bun.
It's quite the pitiful attempt, but I think my hair is just too thin.
4. Last week I posted a picture of the delicious Chocolate Chip Banana Bread that I made and was probably responsible for eating one of the loaves myself. Here is the easy recipe for it:
2 cups flour
1 tsp. baking soda
1/4 tsp. salt
1/2 cup butter
3/4 cup brown sugar
2 eggs, beaten
2-3 cups mashed bananas
chocolate chips
Combine flour, baking soda, and salt. Cream together butter and brown sugar. Add eggs and bananas to creamed mixture. Add four mixture and chocolate chips. Bate at 350 for about an hour.
Easy and SO delicious!
5. Saturday I leave for a week of camping with my family. I am SO excited to see my sister and her family and am looking forward to lots of quality time with my family, a break from the internet, time to read some books, and of course eat lots of s'mores.
We may even have to recreate this masterpiece we made when we were little.
I'm super excited to have some awesome ladies guest post for me while I am gone.
I do know that I will be anxious to catch up on lots of blog reading when I return!
Have a great weekend!

You need to come shopping with me for maxis! Seriously! lol
I think your top bun is precious!
You come up with the cutest outfits! Not sure if you are a follower of Michaela Noelle Designs, but if not, she always has the BEST hair tutorials, and she is an absolute doll!!
Happy camping! Please eat some s'mores for me. I was just thinking hours ago how it is a shame I haven't devoured a s'more in like years! Yes, this is what I sit around think about.
PS. Your top knot is way better than mine!
Have fun camping!...(are you sure you're not being forced into the great outdoors against your will??)
Eat lots and lots of s'mores!
Ha, I love the necklace! I get where your aunt is coming from though. Those shoes (: When you said you weren't wearing the orange ones I was secretly hoping you were wearing these! (No, I don't keep tabs on your shoes, I just happen to really like these ones!)
Have fun camping! We're going in about three weeks and I'm already super excited for that! Oh, and no more Friday letters huh? Too loyal to High Five?
Eat a s'more or five for me!

Is that a headband in your hair? it looks really cute! I wasn't sure if it was a headband or the bands that go all the way around your head, you know what I mean?
Wearing that exact shirt to work today, and I LOVE that necklace!!
Hope you have a wonderful vacation!!
Love the color of that skirt, and the necklace works perfectly with it!
Have a blast camping - I haven't been in a while and miss it :)
Cute outfit! I bet you're so excited to go on vacation - you deserve it girl! And thanks for posting that banana bread recipe. You talked about how amazingly good it was but it's a nice surprise that it's easy too!
In case you need a good tutorial for the top knot... this one is helpful and it involves teasing which should help with thin hair :) http://www.pinkpistachio.com/big-top-bun/
I think your necklace is adorable and your sandals tie the whole look together! Maybe I'll attempt to make that banana bread this weekend :) Have a wonderful time camping with your fam, Katie!

I love the blue skirt and feather necklace! Sometimes, I tease my ponytail a bit before putting it into a bun and that helps shape it. ;-)
