5 on a Friday: HOW TO HAVE SUMMER FUN

 1. USE the Topsy Tail (I have a weak spot for vintage as-seen-on-TV products, and this ballet chignon was awesome (make a regular topsy tail,  and then just keep making them until you run out of hair,)

2. WEAR the liquid eyeliner (Dorothy is soooo into makeup, and I am loving it).
3. NAP anywhere.
4. Also, don’t feel like you have to SLEEP just because you’re in your bed.
5. Squeeze in that seems-impossible mid-week dive meet and also DO NOT SLEEP ON SWEET TREAT TUESDAY

  1. I am also very into makeup (although liquid eyeliner eludes me) and so I am feeling Dorothy! My friend Dan's former cosmetic company tagline was "You're already beautiful, the lipstick is just for fun" and I LOVE that. I am a huge fan of makeup.

    1. LOVE that tag line. Tried the liquid eyeliner today and it makes me want false eyelashes

  2. Dorothy looks SO much like you in that second picture.
    Love the hair.
    I also love naps. I need to take more naps. Perhaps Minnie can give me some pointers.
    And ice cream. I also love ice cream.

  4. I mean, always wear liquid liner regardless of the season, right? RIGHT?

    I took a nap yesterday. No joke. It was great.

    1. I think I am out of the nap game until Minnie is in kindergarten and I can nap when I am home alone-- something to look forward to!!

    I used to love doing my hair ala topsy tail, I haven't thought of that in years. I love the little bun you made out of it. And Nicole's comment about the makeup tagline is perfection.

  7. We had DQ this weekend, too! Such a good treat! And then MORE ice cream on saturday, as you've seen on my blog. I am here for naps, too. I try to snooze for a bit during Will's naps. It feels very luxurious!

    1. SUCH a good treat-- never too much ice cream in a midwest summer.

  8. I am all in on Sweet Treat Tuesdays. Sign me up. Which brings up the following important question: Why on earth does Hilldale not have an ice cream shop? Seriously?
