LESS | MORE

{ taken a couple of days before my 27th birthday }

I will be turning 28 this weekend. I have some celebrations planned but nothing too crazy. Some things which will be involved: girls shopping + brunch sans husbands and kids. ice cream + toes in the sand + sushi rolls + cake just to mention some of my favorite things.

This picture was a couple of days before I turned 27. It was also after spending a fun afternoon sharing drinks with some of our friends. We were starting my birthday celebration that day and going to one of my favorite sushi places... Unfortunately that same night, I feared the worse... a stomach virus. My fears came to life and I was stuck in bed the whole day after. having one of the WORSE days of my life AND on top of everything my in-laws had gotten my husband and I tickets to see one of our favorite musicians, Julieta Venegas, that same day. I obviously didn't get to go which made everything 10 times worse. Well at least I got better for my actual birthday and was able to host the gathering I had planned.

Yeah, last year was just throwing obstacles at us from left to right. Cheers to this year which has been great!

Now, getting straight to the point. I just discovered another great blog that I am smitten by, lillies and leon. I was browsing her wonderful blog and came upon this post. Quickly I was inspired to make my own list and brainstorm some of the things that I want to do less of and replace them with some of the things I want to do more of. These are the things that I came up with and what better time than starting off fresh with a whole new year ahead of me.

Less taking pictures. | More being present.

Less time cleaning. | More time outside.

Less worrying. | More enjoying.

Less being lazy. | More being productive.

Less making excuses. | More exercising.

Less spending. | More saving.
