One of my very favorite weekends is just around the corner and we have pretty drinks to sip and grills to fire up. That's right, we are just a few days away from Memorial Day and I hope you have stocked up on all the ice and cute paper straws because the backyard bashes are about to begin!

Here are just a few of my most summery favorites for your inspiration!
