Happy Friday everyone!!! I want to thank you all so much for your well wishes on our launch event!! Everything was beyond perfect and it was even more than we had hoped. It just so happened that my parents were going to be here for Mother's Day and obviously having the event while they were in town was the best coincidence! This has been quite the week around here because you'll also notice that this little space got a little face-lift!! I hope you like it! I'm linking up with Amanda and April to share even more favorites from the week!
Favorite Recipe
So I don't have a waffle iron, but after finding these Zucchini Parmesan waffles I really need to get one!! How amazing do these look?
Favorite DIY
Even though I don't plan on hosting a party for a while, this Citrus Centerpiece is pretty genius!
Favorite YouTube Tutorial
If you're new to self tanning like me, then you probably are afraid of turning orange!! Well Jaclyn Hill posted an awesome self tanning how-to video and I've watched it like 10 times trying to make sure the next time I self tan at home - I perfect it!!
Favorite Nails
I stumbled upon this instagram photo the other day and I just fell in love with the nails!! I have short ones and I just think the design is so fun!!

I have not tried sunless tanning since my freshman year of college because I felt like after the use of one whole bottle my skin had not changed more than one shade! I need to try again with some higher quality stuff! www.amemoryofus.com
I LOVE the new details to your blog! So pretty! And congrats on a successful night last night! You totally deserve it! That waffle.... holy delish! I will be trying that recipe asap! Also, GET A WAFFLE IRON! Hahaha! We love making homemade waffles! (Okay, I love when Eric makes homemade waffles and I love to eat them ;) Just kidding, I can make them, too. I actually have a funny story from the first time I ever made waffles from scratch shortly after we were married!) Enjoy your weekend with your parents!!
Oh now I need a waffle maker ;) so thanks for that. Ha! Caleb and I could totally use a "catch-all" for keys and phones and wallets. I need to look into that! Have a good weekend girl! So happy to hear the launch went so amazing!!!
Congrats on the awesome event! I loved seeing the sneak peek pictures on Instagram - everything looked amazing! Loving your new header too. Happy weekend!
Love the new look on the blog!! So happy for you and your new business venture!! You are going to be so great. I remember seeing a lot of centerpieces and floral designs like that when I was planning our wedding. I think that it's really cool. :-) That manicure is cute too. I hope that you have a fabulous weekend!!! :-)
Beautiful new layout! I think I need a waffle iron asap! Can't wait to check out that self tannin video too! I use the St. Tropez foam with the mit applicator and it goes on really well and easy, but I'm always up for advise on how I can improve!
I'm hesitant to try sunless tanners, however Jaclyn's video was extremely helpful. Maybe I'll give a whirl! Have a great weekend, glad to hear your event went well!
Love the new design!! Erin does great work! And so happy to hear your event went fabulous last night, even better that your parents could be there! :) Happy weekend!
I don't own a waffle iron either but the zucchini waffles sound amazing! Those citrus centerpieces are perfect for a tropical themed wedding or party! Have a great weekend lady!!
Jaclyn is such a doll and her tutorials are always perfection! Those zucchini waffles look bomb! It's amazing what you can do with a waffle iron. I'm totally trying this. Have a great weekend!
So happy your event went well AND that your parents were in town for it and Mother's Day! I hope you have the best weekend. We don't have a waffle iron either, but now I think I need to get one. That citrus centerpiece also looks amazing, I might definitely have to make one of those :)
Happy Friday! You always find such awesome recipes! We have a waffle iron and these seem just to interesting not to try. Have a great one :) Winks and Eyerolls

Zucchini parmesan waffles?! SIGN ME UP! I watched that entire tanning tutorial... what a GREAT idea to use a makeup brush! I'm gonna try that! I never would've thought of it but it makes so much sense!
I don't have a waffle iron either, but this is the second recipe I've seen today that requires one, so guess who's getting one now!! Love that center piece as well. Hope you are having a great weekend! xo
