I love this color combo especially after seeing the pictures outside with the colors of nature…

Linking up with Mom Pretty Monday

What I don’t love is what my hair was doing during this entire photos shoot,… Think it might be time to cut my bangs… Regardless not letting that little thing about my hair ruin my love of this outfit… 

I liked this pose because you can’t see my messed up hair!  This green sweater is one I purchased in several colors last year because as I’ve alluded to already, I love the third completer pieces even in warmer temps and they are needed for airconditioning for this lady who gets cold easily… This sweater comes in so many colors and is a QVC, Denim & Co essential and is currently priced at $26.00.  I love that they are 70% cotton and 30% nylon.  My one regret is that I bought them last year anticipating my weight loss goals but really wish I had them one size smaller… Oh well, I think I’ll make them work for this year, but look into replacing them for next year.

This pose my 17 year old took from down low on the ground as he was in a goofy mood taking shots from up high, the side and even turning the camera around to get his own face…

I told him I would use it as long as it didn’t make me look wider…

My yellow jeans are by Liz Claiborne via JC Penney and were purchased on clearance so no longer available.. The shoes and print top were both from Chadwicks last year and again no longer available.  This purse was thrifted and I just had toget it for summer!!

Since I really loved this color combo, couldn’t resist one last pose….

Dear Readers.  Are you looking forward to this holiday weekend?  Do you have any plans?  My husband is itching to use his new grill, so think we will have just a fun family of 6 event… I am so happy to have my daughter back home and will cherish this time as I know big changes are on the horizon as my adult children continue on in their independence… My dear fellow fashionistas, what color should i try next with these yellow jeans?  I have a few ideas, myself, but would love to hear you all weigh in , so make a girl happy and leave a comment!  Have a wonderful weekend filled with laughter, fun and family and friends!  Make some Memories!!!!

Gratitude-  I am grateful that my son finished the reading practice test and did incredible!  I am grateful that the testing I have to do for homeschooling arrived today and after peeking at it, I am confident he is well prepared for this…I am grateful that my 17 year old had fun taking my photos today, as I know sometimes he finds me a pain in his neck… I am grateful that after getting up way to early this morning that I had a good long nap and felt incredibly recharged!   I am grateful for the long weekend and time for more of these daily fun conversations with all of my children.  I am grateful that when my 17 year old had to pick an experience that helped him to grow for a paper, that he chose giving a Eulogy at my mother’s funeral when he was just 13 ( he really did an incredible job and made me so proud!)
