A touch of Morocco!

Today is my last day of work.  For the next year I will be feeding, changing and cuddling my sweet baby - enjoying the time at home.  I'm very excited to start the journey of motherhood.  It honestly feels like yesterday when I told everyone I was pregnant and now we are 3 weeks away from meeting Jelly Bean.  It's so hard to describe how I feel - sometimes anxious and nervous, other times extremely excited and calm.  I'll be home for the holidays and can't wait to spend the time with my family before I lose their attention to the baby.  Haha!  

So for today, let's start our day off with a beautiful image.  Any type of big bloom would look awesome in a similar style cup.  Love these rose blooms with the Moroccan style cups. It would make a lovely table arrangement anytime of year.

Breathe It In!

This afternoon I could really do with a pretty bouquet of lilacs at my desk.  It's one of my favourite summer scents.  Especially on a hot and sticky day like today. 

I want to plant a lilac bush in my backyard for next spring.  Click here for tips on planting and caring for lilac bushes.  I need as much help as I can get since I've never had a garden and do not have a green thumb. 

For the rest of the day I will imagine the beautiful scent.  Puts a smile on my face.  Ryan this post is a hint for  you!  I wouldn't mind coming home to a bouquet of lilacs.  :)  xo
