I Love You to the Moon, but Further.

 

And I'd choose you;

in a hundred lifetimes,

in a hundred worlds, 

in any version of reality,

I'd find you and

I'd choose you.

Words can never describe the love I have for this little girl. She is so special to me. She is my sun, my moon, and all my stars. Jacob and I are so blessed that God gave her to us to raise up and that we get to watch her grow every day. I will never be able to thank him enough, even though I will every single day for the rest of my life.

Blair, 

Never settle for anything less than amazing. You are the most amazing person I've ever met, and I hope you will see yourself the way I see you when you get older. You are so beautiful and I love your spirit. I love your soul. I'm so excited to watch you blossom in life and I look forward to supporting you in all of you dreams and aspirations in life. I hope to always be the best momma to you because that's what you deserve. I love you more than you will ever know.

Day 1 at Navarre, Florida!

 

We got to take Blair to the beach for the first time last week, and she loved it! I will never forget her first time her feet touched the sand or  the first time she swam in the ocean. She lunged straight for the sand and headed for the water! When we took her in the waves she squealed with delight! I love her sandy little face in these pictures, it's the best.

She also loves the taste of salt water, haha. At one point Jacob was holding her and I looked at her and she stuck her head in the water! I said, "Jacob!" and he pulled her head out and she just looked at us and started licking her lips nonstop. Haha. She kills me!

We went and ate at Shaggy's, it was real yummy. And I couldn't get over their high chairs! I mean look at those things! They are so cool!

And of course Blair wanted her picture with the shark! 

Can't wait to share the rest of our week with you all!

Red, White, Blue's in the Skies. Summer's in the Air, and Baby, Heaven's in your Eyes.

 

Sweater: Therapy, Shorts: Abercrombie and Fitch

This is what I wore over my bikini on a not so warm afternoon at the beach. I am totally in love with this sweater from Therapy. First off, representing the best place on earth, America!! But it is also super soft, cozy, and warm. Perfect for late summer nights. This sweater scream Wildfox Couture to me, except at a much more affordable price. Perfection! I urge you to go grab yours before they are all gone!

And these shorts are the best denim shorts I've ever had. I've had them for about 6 years, and they have been worn so much that they hardly exist anymore haha. They aren't really appropriate for anywhere but the beach now days (even though I might be brave and wear them out elsewhere!)

I can't stop listening to Lana Del Rey these days. This song is one of my favorites, and the video is genius.

Here's some pictures of our last day at the beach, and our tent aka "home" during our stay there!

Beach Part III.

 

 

Swimsuit: Calvin Klein (thrifted) 

So I never thought I would wear a thrifted swimsuit, but this one changed my mind! It makes me feel like a 90's super-model, which is pretty awesome (it's crazy how a one-piece can make you feel sexier than a bikini!).

Anyways, I love this classic Calvin Klein swim-suit, and it was such a steal! (It looks a little psychedelic in these pictures, but it just has thing white and navy vertical stripes.) I wore it one evening after the sun went down, because I didn't want any funky tan-lines!

Jacob decided to play in the sand that evening and he made me a sand sea-turtle (2 of them!) and a sand mermaid! He's so talented, haha :)

Beach Part II.
