You made it past Monday, friends! One day closer to the weekend! You go, Glen Coco. You. Go. If you’re not already daydreaming about your weekend, teach me your ways…

I’m currently drifting back to this lovely picnic day at The Town of Livingston with these two beautiful friends, Laurel & Hannah. If you remember a couple posts back to this baby shoot, you probably can imagine that we deserve all the wine and all the cheese and all the cheers a picnic brings. Because kids 😉

I thought it only appropriate to title this post after my two loves… Cheese & Wine.  Because while you can still have a picnic without these things, why would you?! If you have not ventured into the gourmet cheese section of your grocery store, DO IT. And pick up a wedge of smoked gouda. [It’s not crazy expensive if that’s what you’re thinking; I used to!] Thank me later. And if you’re in need of a light refreshing drink, try this rosé. While the packaging alone is cute enough to make you purchase, the taste will have you coming back for more!

Here’s our lineup: grapes, strawberries, smoked gouda, french baguette, prosciutto, bark thins, lara bars, and almonds. And now my mouth is watering.

All that’s left to bring is good company! Voila, picnic complete! This was just such a fun morning spent outside with friends! So grateful that this little blog has brought such wonderful people into my life. Some more picture favorites below.

Seriously, thanks so much for dropping in! I have really enjoyed the friendships (even just social media ones) this blog has given me the opportunity to make. Hope you all have a great rest of the week!
