The Whole Fam Damily! (&Cheesecake!)

Like I mentioned in a previous post, I am currently enjoying the summer-like temps and sunshine in Florida with family. The evenings have been somewhat surreal, being at 72 degrees and clear skies for sunset and then cool, clear skies for star gazing.

I am so blessed to be where I am when I am- with most of my extended family in town from my dad's side of the tree. To celebrate a great family, us Kellers did the best way we know how- With lots and lots of food!

I'm not kidding, people! Fried chicken, coleslaw, hot dogs, cornbread, macaroni salad, baked beans, casseroles, fruit, and desserts! Little need to say, I went to bed stuffed higher than a Boyds Bear, and I couldn't have been happier.

My contribution to the feast? Another Pinterest find (+ my own little addition) It was a hit! and I highly recommend making one of these babies for your next big occasion (Or just because your sweet tooth will love you in the end.)

5 Things- Weekend Edition

It's Friday (As if you need reminding!)

Tomorrow morning, bright and early, I'll be leaving on a jet plane to visit....

It's a grand ol' family gathering at our home away from home. I hope to accomplish TWO things from my bucket list (I'll let you guess which ones, check back to see if you're right!) and spend time in the sun getting the sports bra tan lines to recede from visibility. That being said, I would like to take this Friday to complete another round of....

During this weekend and the following days of my vacation, I hope to...

1. Get my toes painted a pretty pink for the celebration of Spring!

2. Cross off not only one, but TWO items from my bucket list!
3. Finish my fourth book since graduation.
Another fiction book I picked up solely for enjoyment purposes.

4. Get rid of my extremely noticeable sports bra tan lines (sock lines would also be welcome to exit the building...)

5. Get a Bacon Blue Cheese Burger from my favoritest restaurant in the area. Yummmm

Happy Weekend!

XOXO MK

Forecast calls for 100% chance of Bathing Suit Season Approaching

It's official! Less than a week until March. Which means spring is right around the corner, colleges will be releasing their students to frolic somewhere tropical, and temps will slowly but surely start rising *which is somewhat crazy because they haven't been too low to begin with*

This kind of forecast only means one thing... a trip to Target, of course!
