friday I’m in love.

Welcome back Friday!

{one} Blogging Anniversary.

Last Tuesday, October 11th, was a big day. Not only was it my big brother’s birthday {Happy Birthday Jason!} but it was also my blogging anniversary: 5 years! Wow. I can’t even believe it. So much has happened since I was a newlywed and freshly out of law school: one house, one dog, one-and-a half babies, and 757 blog posts!

{two} YHL’s Kitchen Remodel Reveal.

{via Young House Love}

I still have mad respect for John and Sherry of Young House Love, even though I miss their full-time blogging every day. They gave/give me so much confidence to tackle DIY projects (big and small) and their new kitchen reveal did not disappoint! I love (LOVE) a white kitchen and I am swooning at all of the details. Plus, I need Sherry to come over and teach me how to style shelves – she is the best! Seeing these pictures makes me want to re-do our kitchen so badly (we have big plans!) but I also know it means I want to wait and be able to do everything that we want to. So I will keep saving my pennies until then and admiring this new kitchen. Be sure to check out the entire reveal here!

{three} West Elm Pop-Up Shop.

Tomorrow afternoon I will be at West Elm Seattle hosting a Pop-Up Shop and I’d love you to join me if you are in town. This is my first big event and first time I will be meeting and seeing customers face-to-face, and I am pretty excited (and nervous) about it! It will be at the West Elm in South Lake Union from noon to 3pm. I will be offering five different flags, taking full custom orders, offering free shipping for not-in-stock flags, and there will be a discount if you buy more than one flag! And if you can’t attend but want to join in on the fun, be sure to check either the Shop’s Facebook or Instagram on Saturday morning for a discount to use on the Shop’s site!

What are you loving this week?
