Oklahomaaaaaa!

 April was one of those months, where every weekend was jam packed. There was Spring Break and Easter, then visiting College Girl and then it was Oklahoma (and that was only the first three weekends!)

Miss High School had her second high school production (how can that be already?) and performed in Rogers & Hammerstein's musical "Oklahoma".

 She did Carousel in the summer so she was well versed in R & H's style: lots of catchy tunes, accents, dancing and a dream ballet.

I could always spot her by her bright pink bow and long, lovely tresses.

 She played "Aggie". (Obviously being a hat thief here).

The talent that the kids have always amazes me, it's hard to believe they're only in high school.

They can sing, dance and act!

 They worked so hard over 4 months of tough rehearsals but the show was so worth it!

 There were five performances over a four days.

 Of course, by closing night it feels like it all flew by in a flash and I'm always wishing I could see it just one more time. sigh.

Lovely Lilacs

My lilac trees are in full bloom right now and I couldn't be happier.

I've been cutting flowers and making bouquets to enjoy their beauty and fragrance indoors.

 They've also been the subject of my Project 365 a few days this week.

 I know they won't last long so I want to remember them.

I snapped this one with my Iphone (edited in PS).

I found some informative tips to prolong the life of cut lilac blooms here and I need to try some of them.

What's blooming in your garden?

{Get Thrifty}Thursday 04.30.15

I got out for some quick thrifting two weeks ago and scored some great spring and summer tops!

The grey floral and black and white striped tops are tanks(both from Old Navy).  The black and white one is extra long which is great for layering under other pieces.

The other three tops are short sleeved tees (Gap, LOFT and Old Navy).  I've worn them all already and I love them.  Hopefully I'll remember to snap some pics the next time I'm wearing one of them to give you an update.

***

That's it for today, remember to stop back over tomorrow to check out or link up (or both) to Friday Favorites. We're still looking for co-hosts if you're interested in a low key, short term commitment.

Let's keep in touch!
