Sabrina Says Travels: Seaside, Oregon


Day two we woke up early and some how STILL hungry after all the food we ate the day before. With the thought of a delicious breakfast and a trip to the ocean in our near future we were out the door and ready to go!

If you know anything about Oregon beaches (which I don't know a lot) you'll know that the weather is VERY temperamental. I figured this was a good in-between outfit.

But first, brunch. I present to you Tasty n Sons.

Family style. Community tables. Family style plates. Tasty.

After breakfast we headed straight for the coast. Growing up, my family would take a trip every year to the Oregon Coast, specifically Cannon Beach. We would watch the fireworks on the Fourth of July, stuff our faces with twisty cinnamon sugar doughnuts, fly kites and build sand castles. These memories are still some of my favorites. Anytime I go back it makes the 8 year old in me oh-so-happy.

See. My inner child is happy.

Also while on the coast, we came across an opportunity we could not pass.
I'll let you just enjoy this.



Happy Wednesday, Friends! 

Stop and Stare

Yesterday I woke up in a fantastic mood. I got all excited about going to Hobby Lobby to get supplies for some DIY projects (I'll show you soon!).

My hair was a huge mess. But the kind mess that is kind awesome.
My skin was actually looking like it didn't hate me.
And my outfit? Fun and playful... so I thought.

As I walked into Hobby Lobby..I immediately felt eyes darting.
I couldn't figure it out. 
Okay... my pink  pants are a little out there but it just didn't make sense.

I got home and started looking at the pictures I took and....

OHHHHHHHH.

Put A Bow On It

I love the feeling of a perfect fit. Whether it be your toes sliding into platform pumps, lyrics that speak to your life, fingers making their way into five others or tightly wrapped arms. There is just something there that makes that moment unforgettable. Whether it's ten minutes or ten years before you feel that way again... you know it was made for you. It's like someone wrapped it up, put a big bow on it and is just waiting for you to rip it apart. 
But instead of tearing into this wonderful gift... cherish what it's made of. The look, the feel, what's behind it and how long it will last. Sometimes the shelf life is instantaneous, others last a life time.

Now I know what you're thinking...
"Stop being all coy, and tell us what you are actually talking about!"

Here it is, straight up.
I am in love....with these new SHOES!

Yeah, I'm serious. They are perfect. They make me 19 feet tall and they have a pretty bow in the back. I am going to wear them to the gym, just because. I need to break them in for Austin (Who am I kidding? I don't do anything at the gym). 

So there you have it. If you want to make something beautiful put a bow on it. It works every time...
just like Put a Bird on it.
