Girls Weekend – Keeping it Colorful

· · · ·

We headed for Girls Weekend over spring break with our besties and what a fun time!  Taking pictures posing with your best friend helps keep the memories alive and we definitely found the best backgrounds to create a colorful weekend!

Wall art seems to be all the rage these days and it is not hard to find something fun in just about any city you visit; big or small. We found perfect backdrops everywhere we went!

Waco – Starry Night – 1000 Columbus Avenue

These two are just so much fun!  They loved the starry night wall even though the wind was creating a few challenges.  Holden definitely had me reminiscing about my denim overalls days and Carly was ready for all the walking with her new Nikes.

Waco – 808 Austin Ave – On the side of Hey Sugar

These girls look so cute because they are so confident!  There is no thinking or worrying about standing just so or hairs out of place.  I always learn something when I spend time with them.

The moms also got in on the posing action!  It was a typical Texas spring day with the temperatures ranging from warm to a bit of a chill.  Holly’s camo pants look so comfy!  I searched and found this pair at an online boutique which are very similar.  I love how she layered a denim shirt over a plain tee.  I chose my boyfriend jeans (similar) and loafers made for a day on my feet.  As much as I love button downs on others, a popover style works much better for me.  I love this one from J. Crew Factory but also thinking this pink stripe from Talbots is adorable.

Dallas – 1804 McMillan – Outside of High Fives

This one was killing me with her little poses!  I wish I had bought this top in every color when I found it.  It really has been the perfect top to wear all year long.  She wore last month with dark jeans and a black jacket but for spring she added her denim vest with white jeans.  How cute is this little top?  This age might do me in!  She definitely has her own idea of what is cute and I honestly envy her as being comfortable is still her #1 priority.  Colorful Girls Weekend - The Queen in Between

How cute does Holden look in this little off the shoulder top?  As the day carried on we began to think white jeans was not the best idea!

It’s easy being best friends when you know each other’s true heart.

Of course a good friend will always carry you through when you aren’t quite yourself. Loving their fringy sandals.  Carly was borrowing a pair from Holden but I’m thinking I need to order this cute pair for her to try

Spring layers have definitely been my favorite lately and I loved this fuschia and green together.

I pushed these shoes a little too far and they made me pay but right up until then we were best friends! We all put our white pants through the ringer this day but I googled some stain fighting tips and ended up using both alcohol and peroxide and mine look brand new again.

So fun doing life with this momma!  I was glad to see this cute chambray top looked so cute on her since I loved it but ended up returning mine.  I did order a very similar scarf from Gap I know will also be a favorite.

Is it crazy that when I see this I want to say “wonder twins activate?”  There is definitely more power together!

We did lots of fun sightseeing but these girls remember most the laughs on the car ride!!  I know we are making memories to last a lifetime and having the opportunity to go away with our daughters for a little fun is such a blessing.  They are funny but I love they are not uncomfortable with silence.  They are so much alike yet so different just like their mom and me.  I hope they find a way to always recognize their strengths and choose to accept each other just the way they are.  I definitely see the world in a more colorful way when they are around!
