BBTS: Beachin' by the Sea

I'm off to la playa today! AND I'M OFFICIALLY DONE WITH SUMMER CLASSES! I have 4 weeks and 3 days of freedom until school starts for the fall semester! REAL SUMMER here I come! Well equipped with this big floppy guy:
I picked up this fun hat at Target (new neighbor Sara had this for Carolina Cup and looked SO cute!) since my new skin medicine makes me really sensitive. It's probably a little bit of overkill, but I'm channeling my inner SATC a la this guacamole scene:


I also love her fiery red nails! But my new hat and I will be promptly off to the beach and I cannot wait! BBTS is also the nickname of our beach house: Bancroft by the Sea! It's a little tradition for all the beach houses to have fun, personalized names. All the beach house families went to the Naval Academy and for anyone who's unfamiliar with Navy, Bancroft is the massive residence hall where all the mids live!

Here is the famed BBTS! I will be parked right in front come about 8pm tonight! Daddy and I are headed out the MINUTE I finish work and I'll be out there for my first REAL summer vacation since my Roadtrip LAAAAST summer. For the first time in over a year my schooling is BACK ON TRACK!

Here's for an awesome 4 weeks and 3 days left of summer full of the beach, the cape, roadtripping, working, shopping, grilling, baking, brideday-ing, you name it but NO MORE SCHOOL! Clearly this girl is quite excited!

I have that same hat! I just love it. It has the perfect amount of floppiness. The hat I had been using had wire in it, so while I could bend and shape it to my liking, it didn't flop!
