Welcome back to Monday friends and the official last week of June!! This weekend was all sorts of fun so let’s get right into what we got up to!
Serious house goals spotted this weekend – that deck with flowers is everything!
My weekend started out with the sweetest delivery from a friend using Greetabl – with of slogan of Happiness Delivered, it really did put a smile on my face!! My friend Jackie sent me my favorite candy from Sugarfina – the champagne gummy bears and a cute card that was sent by the company! You have 16 gifts to choose from (as of right now). I think this is such a great idea – especially if you’re a bride looking to ask your bridesmaids if they’d like to be in your wedding!
Saturday was stunning! We decided to head to the Boston Sailing Center for one of their Open Houses and free sailing days!! We’ve done this once before about 4 years ago and this time was even more perfect. The weather was unreal! After the sail (which lasts about 20 minutes) you head over to grab some free drinks and enjoy the views! It’s one of my favorite summer activities and I’m so glad they offer it up to those of us who have no clue how to sail!
The best views of the city from the water!
Saturday night Jackie and her husband invited us over for an impromptu BBQ. We had such nice night enjoying food, I didn’t even have a chance to snap a photo of the food…but dessert there will always be room for! You might have even caught a video of Tom sabering some champagne on snapchat (@blovedboston)!
Sunday we knocked off one of my summer bucket list items and headed off to the Franklin Park Zoo! It was steamy…a little stinky out there at times, but it was so much fun!!
Sorry this little guy is a little blurry π
My favorite moment included seeing the gorilla’s up close – they are so incredible and the little baby gorilla was happily playing along with everyone watching!!
The flamingo’s flamingaling π
The sales this weekend did not disappoint – I picked up 2 pairs of shorts (safari & riviera) and some new sunnies (50% off and come in blush too) and wore them all weekend long! On a seriously random note, I tried my first cold brew on Sunday and for this non-coffee drinking girl…I have to say it tasted almost identical to an iced latte…maybe it was all the half and half I added to mine, but I’ll be ordering one again soon!

Here’s hoping for an easy and quick work week! How was your weekend? Link up below to share!

That house is absolutely gorgeous! How cool is it that they offer a sail and then drinks? Definitely something I would love to take advantage of…if I didn't live in the landlocked Midwest. I have been wanting to go to the zoo, too. Looks like you saw some awesome animals. Happy Monday!
Wow to the weekend…sailing, the zoo, cookies, great sales…all equal a great time!! Now, off to the week so we can get to the Holiday weekend, hope it's a smooth week ahead for ya!!
Love the sunnies and shorts you picked up !! Looks like your weekend was fabulous. Happy Monday !
You had the best weekend! Sailing sounded(and looked!) amazing and the zoo never disappoints!

Omg HOW FUN that you guys got to sailing on this beautiful weekend! I wish we lived a little closer to water because I love boating! And that first house photo is SERIOUS goals–how gorgeous!

What a fun weekend! I snagged those striped shorts too and I can't WAIT to wear them π
What a great weekend. Love anytime on the water. What a gorgeous weekend! That gorilla! <3 Beautiful!
Looks like a fun weekend! Your sailing adventure looks great too! Clearly you and Gary need a boat now.. haha. π I hope that you have a great day today too. π
You snagged some great pieces! And that house – all the goals. And sailing? Super jealous.

I hit up the outlet mall for some sales this weekend too. I love how it's the "end of season" sale, but it's June 25th. It'll be in the 80s into October, we still have months to wear "summer" clothes in NC. π
That sailing activity looks so fun, free sailing and free drinks??? Sign me up! Looks like you guys had an awesome weekend!

Your sailing adventure looked like so much fun this past weekend, and that's so awesome that they offer it for free as well! I've always wanted to learn how to saber a bottle of champagne, but I don't think that I'm coordinated enough to do it! I loved watching your friend to it though!
What a perfect weekend! Impromptu BBQ's are my favorites – good food, good company and easy clean up!
Boating, zoo trips…what's not to love?? Looks like a gorgeous weekend with lots of fun stuff! I liked the snap of Gary being put to work on the boat haha
Champagne gummy bears sound amazing!! And your afternoon out on a boat sounds like the perfect way to spend the weekend!

Champagne gummies! Amazing!
Still think greetabl is so cool– and such a fun twist on a traditional card to send to someone! I still need to try the champagne gummy bears. It looks like you guys had such a fun weekend. The sailing sounds so fun, and it's so nice they offer it for free certain days!
What a great weekend you had. I loved your snaps while sailing. It was such a beautiful day to be on the water. I love those champagne gummies, what a sweet treat. Did you enjoy the zoo? Loved all the snaps of the animals. That house is gorgeous. Glad you liked the cold brew? Where did you try it from? Personally, I think the cold brew from the Thinking Cup is one of the best.
Your weekend sounds like so much fun! I have never been sailing before but I would like to go, & I love zoos!
What a fun weekend! The sailing looks amazing, and the city views! I love sailing … we went to the beach this weekend and saw all the sail boats out and I so wished I was on one of them! Happy Monday. π
It looked like such a great weekend from what I saw on Snap too! How gorgeous are those snaps from the boat ride?! And so much fun to go to the zoo! Happy Monday!

Loved seeing all of your snaps! We love going to the zoo, though we haven't been in a while! Happy Monday! Xo
Sounds like you had the perfect summer weekend! Sailing in the Boston harbor must have been so much fun! And your trip to the zoo is reminding me to get my kids there asap. We love the Central Park zoo. Next time you're in NYC, you should definitely check it out π

I cannot believe it is the end of June. Such cute photos of all the animals and such a cute blush outfit. Love it.
Sounds like you had a fun weekend! I always love a trip to a zoo or aquarium. You got some really good picture! Love the shorts you got. Hope you have a great week!
Looks like you had a fun weekend! Love boat rides. Have a great week!

Oh my gosh, the porch with the flowers is fantastic!! What a fun weekend. I haven't been to a zoo in ages, but I definitely need to change that. Have a great week!

You've mentioned your love for Sugarfina a number of times, but I've yet to order anything from them. I'll be meeting a childhood friend for the first time in nearly 10 years on Saturday, she's getting married and I, of course, don't want to show up empty handed. I just may need to get these! I mean, who wouldn't like the sound (and taste) of champaign gummy bears, right!? I love the pieces you got on sale, SALE is my middle name, haha! I managed to get the blue version of the yellow Zara leather jacket I've been obsessed with on sale after hunting it down (it's selling out so quickly online!). I'm glad you had a wonderful weekend doing some thing you've had on your list! I can't believe we'll be entering July this month! Seriously, where is the time going!? I hope you have the most amazing week ahead, beautiful!

Sailing around in that beautiful place and that great weather sounds amazing! Love all the zoo snaps, I need to go to the zoo! Sounds like a wonderful weekend!
These months are just zipping by.
Seriously love this house and garage area! I would love to have that, great way to have a multifunctioning house, garage and deck.
Sounds like a fun weekend at the zoo, we actually have a local peacock that just wanders the neighborhood (not in my neighborhood) and it's pretty cool to see him just wandering around.

You seriously had a fabulous weekend. That house is money. And sailing in the harbor looks like the best time ever.
That's seriously the cutest for your house goals. So much better than the traditional white picket fence π Your boat cruise on Saturday sounds amazing and the weather looks absolutely perfect…what a nice way to play tourist in your own city.
Looks like a gorgeous weekend in Boston! The sailing sounds a lot of fun!
