As September draws to a close here are a few of my favorite links from around the web this month. Love this school house renovation. So chic and clean looking. Make cake quickly.

Just For Laughs

This is one for the ages. “Dad, you just don’t understand weddings. At all.” I mean really. Even though this is not my child – I ADORE her. This one had me laughing. Enjoy. x https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p6ZojleXMn4&feature=player_embedded
