Anyone ever been to St. Simons Island, Georgia?! I’ve just added it to my must-visit list! And I know right where I’d stay…the Annie Laurie Cottage! The whimsical beach house has so much charm, so much turquoise, I can’t handle it! The talented homeowners recently spent a year restoring and redecorating the home from top to bottom. Speaking of top, how about that fab master bedroom that takes up the whole 3rd floor?! Love the cozy sitting area with the built-in seating! The delightful home is available for rent–imagine the fun, there’s even a piano!! Read all about the home and see more photos here!
As promised, below you’ll find some of our vacation pics from Mexico’s Riviera Maya! We spent all our time relaxing, staring at the water, playing in the waves, napping, eating, and more relaxing…you get the picture! Not only were we taking a ‘babymoon’, but we were also celebrating our 2nd anniversary. We stayed at the same resort we stayed at for our honeymoon, El Dorado Casitas Royale, as it was just so amazing the first time around we had to experience the paradise again!
I’m getting pretty big, as you can see from the pic of me up there! Just hit 25 weeks, and am still feeling good, and absolutely loving feeling the little guy kick! Can’t believe how fast this time is going…August will be here before we know it!
Have a fantastic weekend everyone!! 🙂

St. Simons is my favorite place on Earth! I grew up going there and I'm actually going there next weekend for Memorial Day. I highly suggest you go! It's a small town and has the best food in the world! Lots of cute shops to visit and such a beautiful place!
I have always wanted to go into the houses on the street the featured home is on. They are all sooo cute! Thank you for featuring this!!! It's cuter than I imagined it would be!

I've been to St. Simons twice now and if I didn't live all the way across the country I'd be there every single year. It's a wonderful place to go! I just love it. Trying to decide right now if we're going to go again this summer.

You look so cute pregos. I never looked great that way and I did it 4 times! I love the house and all of the personal decor. They managed to turn a boring sofa into a corner of color. One has to make a career of decorating to find all of those treasures of yesteryear.
