Love

Things I'm loving today...


*Making it safely back to New York...Coral was such a good little traveler. Slept the whole time and didn't have any accidents in her carrier
*Having Coral to keep me company in this lonely cottage for the night...she is going to sleep like a princess in my king sized bed
*Being completely moved out of the cottage
*Being all packed up and actually fitting ALL of my stuff in my car...never thought it would happen
*Realizing that I left my car, 3 months ago, with a full tank of gas...that's not like me at all, but that is one less thing that I have to do tomorrow
*Eating Subway...so delicious
*Having a huge fountain coke
*Coral's new toy elephant....Have I mentioned that I love all things elephant {It's the Bama girl in me}
*I'm picking up my bff Heather tomorrow for our road trip to Bama
*I'll get to see my family in less than 48 hours
*Driving a car instead of a golf cart...felt wierd at first, not to mention, for a brief second I forgot which side of the road to drive on
*My trip to Target for doggy treats...oh how I've missed Target

I hope everyone has had a lovely Saturday...mine has been LONNNNG and busy, but the payoff is moving back home for good!
So ready to be there.

Happy rest of the weekend.

The Simple Things

Today's tropical Thursday is just a few of my favorite pictures.

These are just the simple things that make this island what it is. I love that this place is a true Bahamian place drenched with culture.


Today's drink of choisce is Kalik. I love it!

The Simple Things

The simple things that i love about Harbour Island...

-Driving golf carts
-Drinking a beer no matter what time of day it is
-the pink sandy beaches
-waving to everyone
-boat rides
-sunsets
-the chickens that roam the streets and wake you up at 7 AM
-the potcakes
-and most of all my friends!!

This is my last tropical Thursday post...I'm headed off the island in 2 days. These are just some of the things that I will miss once I'm gone.

Happy Thursday loves.

What I'm Loving Wednesday

I'm a little late posting today...blogpress on my phone hasn't let me post all day.
Here is what I am loving today...

{ONE}
I'm loving that I took the puppies to the beach for the first time yesterday. It was the cutestthing I've ever seen!!

I'm also loving that this little girl now has a reservation on my jet blue flight to New York.
She is all mine!
I haven't named her yet...so suggestions are welcome.

{TWO}
I'm loving that we downloaded the first few episodes of True Blood season 4 last night. I'm so addicted and I cannot wait to catch up.

{THREE}
I'm loving that my friend, Elizabeth, is arriving back on the island today after her much needed trip home to Cape Cod. Can't wait to hang out and catch up with her.

{FOUR}
I'm loving all the free time I have to spend with my friends before I leave the island.

Yesterday my friend Rosie and I spent the afternoon relaxing at Romora Bay, taking the puppies for a walk on the beach, and then walking on the beach again with our friend Tanya and her dog Max.

I can't believe that I only have 2 more days here. It's quickly coming to an end and I'm surely gonna miss this place and all of my wonderful friends.

On a happy note, I'm loving that I'll get to see this face in 4 days...

and this face in 5 days...

Not to mention the sweet faces of all of my nieces and nephews.

Happy hump day lovies!

Do you wanna see...

Thanks Neely for letting me steal your idea.

What's inside my purse??
*Camera, Camera charger (I take lots of pics), sunglasses, wallet, 2 chapsticks with sunscreen, concealer, Nivea kiss of flavor tinted chapstick, beauty rush soothing lip balm, and of course my coozie*

Somehow it all fits in my little clutch that I purchased here in Harbour Island at the Blue Rooster.

What apps I use??

I normally have more apps, but my phone got restored when I went home a couple of weeks ago and there is no point in downloading most of my apps until I get back to the states.
(Which by the way is in 4 days.... insert happy and sad face here)
I will say that blogpress is my most prized app....I almost always blog from my phone...its so convenient and easier to post pics.

And how about that background...I can't say enough how excited I am to meet my new nephew!

What books are on my nightstand/kindle??

What makeup I use daily??
Most days I stick to my tinted moisturizer with sunscreen, but if I'm actually doing something then these are my go to's.
*Tinted moisturizer, bare minerals, eye liner, mascara, and bronzer*

Thanks for stopping by lovies. Have a happy Tuesday!

Miscellany Monday


Write random and link up...
Miscellany Monday @ lowercase letters
{ONE}
I had the best weekend ever!!!

Saturday- I had a productive morning and then I took the dogs to the beach until James got off work. Then a few of us went out on the boat. We met a sweet couple from Alabama so we took them out on a sunset cruise for some tubing. To say that I am sore today would be an understatement.
Sunday- A bunch of us rented a van and took a road trip in Eleuthera. We made lots of stops along the way, but finally reached our destination at the light house. We played at the beach for a while and then headed back. We stopped at Sky Beach for dinner...a gorgeous place with a pool bar and a hot tub. So relaxing!!
{TWO}
My sweet Colin and sister were released from the hospital on Saturday. He is such a blessing!!
They are happy to be home and I can't wait to get there to meet him.

{THREE}
I'm so excited for the bachelorette tonight!! A glass of wine and the couch is calling my name.

{FOUR}
I only have 5 more days left in Harbour Island. I'm so sad to leave my friends here, but I'm also really happy to be going home. I'm recouping today from a long weekend, but starting tomorrow I'll be in full enjoy-every-minute mode. I want to soak up everything I can before I leave on Saturday.

{FIVE}
Happy mingle Monday
