much love monday.

i like to use monday as a way to reflect on the previous week, to start anew, and to send a little love into the world.  won't you join me?    

today i am grateful for:

a mystery girls' getaway with 2 besties from law school that found us in the charming town of galena, il for the weekend.

pictures worth a thousand words:

 {our lovely accommodations}

 {chocolates + hot cider}

 {main street}

{perhaps the last of the fall foliage}

this week's blog love: 

• in love with liz of sequins & stripes trip to strasbourg, france.  reminds me of switzerland + austria (2 favorite countries of mine).
• how fun is this colorful "i want candy" post by anne of the city sage.
• i want to live on this farm via dustjacket.
• i am so impressed with beth of do.think.wear.see.love.dream.  she is a clothes layering savant, i tell ya.

here's to another grateful and love-filled week.
