Happy Weekend!

Well, hi there, Friday! I’m so excited to see you. We are still in our hometown for the holiday weekend, soaking up some fun family time. The upcoming month holds big changes for our family, so I’m enjoying these last quiet days before the world goes nuts (explanation coming in a future blog post, I promise!). I hope you are relaxing, sleeping off your food coma from yesterday and finding lots of time to be lazy!

Here are some fun links from around the web, just in case you need a break from all of the family time:

These super creative Facebook timelines have me wanting to redesign my own!

Vintage photos of the girl who inspired Alice in Wonderland.

This is the first year I’ve participating in Fantasy Football, so I’ve been paying more attention to the NFL than I normally do (normally I devote negative 20% of my time to NFL football). This clip of the hosts of NFL Tonight trying to work in lines from The Princess Bride into their broadcast was the best! Maybe I’ll pay more attention now! (Probably not.)

I’m definitely making these spray-paint chalk stencils! What a cool project. It’s like graffiti for rule followers!

An open letter to President Obama on the state of science education. So good.

Ten people singing Taylor Swift songs better than Taylor Swift. Also, these girls are my favorite singers on the web this week. Just adorable and so talented! And now I might have to watch that damn Nashville show. Darnit, you talented kids, making me watch more television!

A new Hairdresser on Fire tutorial is up and it’s my favorite one so far (I say that every time, but that doesn’t mean it’s not true!). How to do a zipper braid/bun in less than two minutes. On a subway escalator. You know, in case you need to do that someday.

I love the Humans of New York blog, so this video was perfection to me!

Hooray! The “What We Wore” series on Bleubird Vintage is back! They’ve been on hiatus for a while, so I was so pleased to see this earlier this week. Love this family and their impeccable style.

Here are a few Instagram images from the past couple of weeks. I know some of these include Miss Molly, but I’d feel strange omitting them. She was a part of our family, and just because she’s gone, doesn’t mean she’s left our thoughts. You can follow our adventures on Instagram at @Crazy_Bananas.
