MEMORIAL DAY.

I wanted to to take today to recognize Memorial Day coming up, and it also didn’t seem appropriate for me to share favorites this week with all the heaviness of the country.

Happy Friday! I’m linking up with Andrea  and Erika today to share some favorites from our spring break. We had a perfect mix of a mini trip and home time too.
