Weekend Fun

We had a busy weekend spending time with friends. Mr. Wonderful and I had a much needed date night on Friday and went to the cutest bar after dinner. It used to be an apple farm and they have renovated it with 30 foot ceilings, gorgeous dark wood walls and a cozy, quaint atmosphere. Saturday we had one of my best friends since kindergarten and her family over. Miss O had a blast decorating Valentine cupcakes with Miss R.




Mr. B thought they were quite tasty!

Today we spent time with more great friends and their adorable son (who is our godson) and their sweet daughter. It was so much fun to catch up. We had a great time. The only bad part to the weekend was taking down the Christmas tree. I swear I will be vacuuming needles until Easter! This afternoon I made The Pioneer Woman's white chicken chili to eat while we watched the Pats get crushed, but alas it took too long, so we order pizza instead. I am psyched to have a great dinner already prepared for tomorrow when it's back to work and it came out delicious! Off to watch Harry Potter with Miss O and get to bed early for the start of the week!

Let's shed a little light on the subject...

I love our dining room, and have always wanted to replace the boring ceiling light in it for something more formal and elegant. I love the way it turned out. What a difference something as simple as a fixture can make!
