Simple Ruffled Linen Towel
I learned a long time ago, that I tend to gravitate to the simple things in life. Sunsets,simple cooking,popcicles, ,blue jeans, white t-shirts….you get the idea!

We LOVE fall…cool and crisp air, football, leaves changing colors, and PUMPKINS!!

There are days that I just can’t decide…am I preppy polka dot or funky floral? Think about it…we all are one or the other or maybe both on different days!
