Strawberry Lemonade//Recipe

Being that it has been over 100 degrees everyday since I can't even remember, I was feeling rather summery this weekend. I really wanted to make lemon squares (and I did) but I wanted to make something Jack would enjoy as well. So! Strawberry Lemonade is what I made! 
Jack LOVES strawberries. 

Simple syrup:
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup sugar
1 lemon, sliced
2-3 strawberries, chopped

In a small pot, mix the above ingredients and bring to a boil. Let boil about 2 minutes to get the flavors going. Then strain the mixture into a pitcher. You could not strain it, but I didn't like how the cooked lemons looked. 

2-4 Lemons, sliced
5-6 strawberries, sliced
Water (depends on how big your pitcher is)
Ice

Mix these ingredients into your pitcher with the simple syrup. 
ENJOY!





PHOTO A DAY 9

We had a fun weekend. We "swam" in our little pool, played with a lot of sidewalk chalk, lost a bunch of sidewalk chalk, baked some, had some family time, and played with trains. I love my weekends with this little man. I can't wait for the next one!!!

PHOTO A DAY 7

This kid LOVES water. 
He loves big swimming pools and bath time. He loves running water. 
But we live in an apartment where the pool is ALWAYS too full.
So, we bought a tiny little inflatable pool from Target for $5. 
We use a watering can to fill it and play with him.
He loves it.

PHOTO A DAY 4

I ordered some Warby Parker's to try. I have this strange feeling that my almost two year old is going to grab and crush my current glasses. I need a backup. I cannot do anything without my glasses. Blind here.

I think I like these. They are rather large, but cute. Any thoughts?

Anniversary Date//Outfit

For our anniversary, Jeremy and I went to Lonesome Dove in Ft. Worth. It is...AMAZING. The food is just perfect. I cannot wait to go back one day.

This is what I wore...



 Top, shoes, & belt: Target
Skirt: Asos

My man.
