Happy Birthday, Emily!

Happy 22nd Birthday to this little peanut!!! My baby seestor is growing up.

We have been best friends for 22 years now, and I can't believe how quickly the time has flown by.

So, Happy Birthday, Emily!! You are the most beautiful, talented, genuine, intelligent, generous, caring, and hilarious person I have ever met and you have no idea how grateful I am to have you in my life. It may not always seem like it, but I'd be lost without you. May this year be full of magical new beginnings and excitement. I hope your day is wonderful!

xoxo, Weebs

Retreating to warmer weather.

I am ditching Chicago's neverending winter weather for some sunny days and 85 degrees! I won't be posting again until Monday morning because my long weekend is going to be full of sunshine, early morning coffee on the beach, bikini's, beach runs, colorful toesies, a rehearsal dinner on a yacht and a wedding on the beach!

However, if you just love me that much and fear that you will miss me while I am away...well don't fret and follow @HelloHappyHaven on Twitter. I'll tweet, tweet you sunny views so you can pretend you are by my side, soaking up the sun!

One last thing, I am having issues trying to decide which dress to wear to the wedding...

The left is an old Milly dress that is so comfortable and easy, breezy.

The right is a new Shoshanna I swooped up, a little more fitted but I LOVE the print.

Thoughts?

Enjoy the rest of your week, my dears! xo

We're Off!

Dave, Webster and I are heading to Michigan to spend Thanksgiving with Dave's family. The weather is calling for snow which sounds like the perfect holiday to me! We plan on taking full advantage of the 5 hour car ride and stopping at wineries and apple orchards throughout the trip. Yay!

This is my first Thanksgiving away from my family which makes me extremely sad, but I'll be back on Friday to celebrate in Hinsdale and host an engagement party for Alex & Tad!

I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving full of family, friends, and life's simple pleasures. Cheers!
