I can not believe how quickly March as arrived! It feels like last weekend I was sipping champagne with a 2015 paper crown on my head cheering "Happy New Year". Hopefully 2015 has been good to you and only gets better in the lucky month of March. With Spring just around the bend I am excited to introduce some green and white pieces to my Spring wardrobe and maybe even a bikini as long as I don't snack on too many Girl Scout cookies (did you know thin mints are vegan now?)! Also on the agenda for this month, spruce up the garden and yard to make it party ready and hopefully finding a four leaf clover along the way. Also, don't forget to spring forward March 8th when Daylight Savings starts! Happy March!

SKATE OR....MAKE A PINATA.
Having two older brothers made me a total tomboy while growing up. I was always trying to keep up with what they were doing and skateboarding was one of those things. My first board was was about 2 feet long , bright blue and did not move as fast as any of the boys'. A banana board. I miss that board and if i still had it, would take it for a ride today for national "Go Skate Day". It was slow, plastic and who knows what company made it, but it was awesome. Here is my attempt to recreate that board and those memories in to a pinata. How to make a skateboard pinata!

BESTIES FOREVER!
What is a best friend? The person you can tell all your secrets and dreams to and will support you no matter how crazy an idea may be? The person you know no matter how long its been and how much each of you changed, when you see each other nothing is different between you after days, weeks, months, years? The person that will bring over a pizza and gummy bears to watch a bad movie with you on a bad day? I don't have a best friend. I have like 12. Since middle school Ive always had a handful of friends who I connected with but for different reasons (others than shopping and boys I swear). While getting older those connections got stronger or broke and new people came into my life building new bonds. In my 20s my siblings and cousins became not only people with the same parents or grandparents but also some of my best friends I could always count on, laugh with about old stories and make new memories with.
Today is National Best Friend Day! Whether you have one, half a dozen or 65 of them, today is the day to celebrate that friendship! I love the amazing people in my life and would love to stack their wrist and mine with different bracelets representing our different friendships. Buzzfeed has this amazing round up of 15 "summer camp style" friendship bracelets that have completely inspired us to buy some thread and get braiding. Best Friends Forever!
Urban Dictionary:
BESTIES:
1. Short for "best friends".
2. A shorter word for best friend
3. Friends who have each other's backs, look out for each other, spend lots of time together, and are just really good friends.
They have inside jokes together, they go to the park and swing on swing sets, get ice cream, go to the beach, go to concerts, go bowling, and basically any activity that they like doing together as friends.

NEVERMIND...a spring break state of mind
Its spring break somewhere and WE ARE FEELNG IT! So ready to put away all of our everyday worries, roll out a towel pool side and sip on something frozen. Maybe a pina colada, maybe a daiquiri whatever it is, we hope its cold enough to cool us down from the hot hot sun. Big hats, swimsuits, crocheted cover ups, sandals, quick dips, grilled cheese poolside, the smell of sunscreen and chorine, fresh pedicures, good tunes, things served in fruit, new sunglasses, straw bags, cat naps on pool rafts, waterproof make up, slip-on everything, tan skin, and everything and anything else that will let us throw our phones into the pool and just say "nevermind". BRB.

DIY FLORAL HAPPY FACE
Today is the first day of Spring or Vernal Equinox, which ever you prefer to celebrate. We saw this awesome DIY floral heart on 100 layer cake and had to make it into our own. What better way then a big floral happy face to welcome the longer days, warmer temps and our sundresses and sandals back in rotation.
Happy Spring!

LAST MINUTE : BOYFRIEND VALENTINE'S DAY GIFT GUIDE
Valentines day sometimes seems like a holiday set up just for women to get mad at men. Since elementary school, girls would hope for their crushes to give them a heart shaped ninja turtle card or send them a flower gram. Unfortunately, this didn't always happen and our dreams of a real life John Hughes style love were crushed. Although we are older, there is still a glimmer of hope that Prince Charming will send an anonymous dozen roses or our boyfriends will plan a dreamy date night including a horse drawn carriage and going to the ballet ...in Paris. As hopeless as we may always be, this year we are taking it upon ourselves to be the Juliet to our Romeo. A few easy ideas any man will love, especially compared to last years silent treatment after he only got us a box of chocolates. As if!
1. Man candle - Man-Cans! Awesome flavors like campfire, bacon and grampas pipe. All candles are made inside of a soup can, which the actually soup is donated to a local food shelter.
2. Beer Tasting - Buy 4-5 craft beers (usually at liquor stores you can buy single bottles or the 32oz bottles are sold alone). Pair up with cheese, popcorn, sandwiches and other snacks. Here is a chart for pairings.
3. Homemade Valentine- Good for a massage or home cooked dinner. We love this scratcher idea.
4. Personalized Playlist- Set up a listening party in your living room accompanied by cocktails, candles and a deck a cards or chess board for a romantic and fun night.
