keeping this one short and sweet this week.  we're hitting the road today for a little mini road trip.  we're heading up island to visit with some good friends.  i'm hoping we can teach our oldest that road trips really are fun and that you don't need to cry and wail the whole time...lol...but ya never know with her.  we're looking forward to it regardless and hoping my back hold out and allows us to do a few fun things while we are gone.  the hubs gets to go golfing and this mama gets to spend some time chillaxing, talking with friends, basking in the sun and of course - knitting :)  wishing you all a friend filled, giggly, sunshiny, toes in the grass, drinks in your glass and crafts galore kind of weekend.

what are you all up to this weekend?  any fun plans?  any crafty projects you're excited to whip up this weekend?  what's your fave thing about road trips? come keep me company! i'll be bringing the ipad along on the road and hope to get some fun snapshots of our journey.  you can follow me on instagram under "luvinthemommyhood".
