Do you want to know something? Almost no one in Seattle has air conditioning. Do you want to know something else? It still get’s warm here in the summer! And it’s a wet warm, that just goes right through you. So what do you do on a Sunday evening on a warm day, when your house gets all stuffy? You get out of dodge, that’s what. Last night we drove up into the cascades and explored Alpental, a ski resort that has a magically swiss-alps-esque feel to it. Don’t you love visiting ski resorts in the summer? I love seeing what’s hiding under those lifts, all the things covered in snow when you’re normally there. Anyways, a drive up into the cool hills was just what the Dr. ordered. We threw rocks into the trees, and the river, walked on the bridge, and breathed that fresh cool mountain air. I love love love where we live. ;-)
So, I’ve got to be honest with you. I really wanted to like these Sonnet James dresses. I’ve got two of them and while I find them wildly comfortable, and I love the idea behind the brand and it’s creator, I don’t think they do much for me. My husband is admittedly not a huge fan, he calls them my bag dresses, because they’re kind of a bag on me. :-0 Anyways, I like to wear them on Sunday afternoons, after I get back from church and want to just cook and read and nap, or on road trips when you really just want to wear pajamas, but pajamas just aren’t really a great option.
Anyways, here’s wishing you a very happy Monday!
