The Perfect Birthday Gift

Hi everyone,
Happy Monday!
I hope you all had a nice weekend:).

I celebrated my 39th birthday on Friday.
I took a drive with 2 of my best guys(my hubby was working)
& my niece to the North Fork of Long Island,
one of my favorite places on earth.
I had my heart set on a dresser I saw at

So crazy to get this excited over a drive
to the country to pick up an OLD dresser.
But I was.

It was the perfect birthday gift.

 Isn't it beautiful?
Rustic, shabby, beachy & simple.
I love the sides, the wood detailing is just lovely.
And it has casters!
They are very, very old & one is broken but that's ok,
it gives character.

The rest of my birthday was equally special.
 My husband & my boys took care of dinner(take out:))
&
went to my favorite bakery
to get some vocal inspiration.

We spent the night on my front porch
taking in the sounds & sights of summer.
Talking, laughing & playing.
I really couldn't have asked for more.
It was perfect!

I hope you had a little bit of perfect this weekend too!
