youth is like a long weekend on friday night.


This past weekend was the Victoria Day long weekend - and it was fantastic. It's rare that I am able to take time away from working and actually relax. This weekend though? It was pretty much perfect. I was able to spend time with my boyfriend, drink, watch fireworks, and have some fun. It was exactly what I needed after a super stressful week at work.

Being able to relax and unwind truly made me appreciate the amazing things (and the amazing people) that I have in my life. I am so grateful to have had a little 'me' time this weekend. Since I had such a wonderful weekend, I thought that I would share a couple of pictures that make me smile.






How did you spend your weekend?
