Happy {Mother’s Day} Weekend.

{Jenny Lewis by Autumn de Wilde}

I’m skipping out a little early this week to fly home to Pennsylvania for a family wedding. It’s rare that I get to go back any other time during the year other than Christmas, so I’m really looking forward to it family drama excluded. I’m especially happy about getting to spend Mother’s Day with my 85 year old grandma! My mom will be in town for the knot-tying as well, so it’s going to be a good trip. I’ll see you back here Tuesday morning!

+ I can’t wait to try my hand at Megan’s felt dahlia flower brooches – I just hope I can manage with only two hands!

+ Forgot to pick up a Mother’s Day card? No sweat, download this free silhouette card from Two Brunettes

+ More May wallpaper to mix things up on your desktop: 1, 2, 3

Happy Mother’s Day!
Happy Weekend!

PS: Don’t forget, if you haven’t entered the CSN giveaway yet you have until Tuesday at 9am!
