It’s FRIIIIIIDAY! Are y’all starting to think I work for the weekend? Because I do. Our weekdays are full of work, cooking dinner, daycare drop-off and pick-up, a million errands and commitments. So, weekends are our time to spend together and with Whit. Like, actual quality time. Not just, “Yay we’re having so much fun! EAT DINNER! PUT ON JAMMIES! GO TO BED!”

Anywho. We don’t have any real plans this weekend, so we might find ourselves at the zoo (yeah, we’re members like every other genius parent out there). Without further ado, here’s the Friday Five…

1  |  The scallops. The woven teak. In love with this chair!

2  |  This screams summer to me.

3  |  I’ve had my eye on this print for a while.

4  |  This whole reveal is giving me so much inspiration for our home.

5  |  This guy has me in tears with nearly all of his posts.

Happy Friday, y’all! Did this week creep by for anyone else? I am SO glad it’s Friday and SO glad it’s a three-day weekend (enter emoji praise hands). I’m trying to get back into the regular routine of blogging and doing some DIY projects and just being more productive overall.

Here are my Friday Five…

1  |  I love the feel of this house (especially the bathroom and dining room).

2  |  This easy DIY could really change the look of a sad looking fireplace.

3  |  This looks like the perfect summer recipe!

4  |  I need this chair in my life – and it’s super affordable and currently on sale!

5  |  I recently picked up this dress and I think it’ll be my go-to staple this summer (note: it runs TTS, but is very long; I’m 5’2″ and even with high wedges on it’s still about an inch or two too long).

Hello sweet friends! We made it to Friday again (enter praise hands emoji)! This week a miracle happened. I’ve been begging my husband to let me get our Christmas tree out of storage, but he kept insisting that we wait until Thanksgiving…which I totally get. Look, I didn’t ask to be this crazy early Christmas decorator, but this year I just need that extra sparkle in my living room for an extended amount of time. Still, Zach was firm that it was too early. So being the spitfire resourceful gal I am, I remembered we had a tiny tree that could sit up on our built-in bookcase and I set it up in protest. HELL NO WE WON’T GO…or something like that.

I came home from work on Tuesday, I pulled into our driveway, got out of the car and walked to our back door. What do I see? OUR CHRISTMAS TREE! It’s a dang Thanksgiving miracle, folks. I was so excited I even busted out in dance (side note: I’m a horrible dancer. Think Elaine from Seinfeld. Little kicks.) This weekend, I’ll be finishing up putting lights on our nine-foot tree. Just call me Clark.

Now let’s see what else I’ve been loving this week…

1  |  How perfect are these for your holiday place settings?

2  |  I tried a bunch of these products and loved them (and their mission) so much I’m now a consultant! (more on that soon!)

3  |  This speaks to me on so many levels.

4  |  I picked these up recently and they are perfection!

5  |  Finalizing my Thanksgiving menu and this appetizer looks delish.

 

Hope everyone has a lovely weekend!

 

Happy Friday! This weekend will be the first in several that Zach and I will both be home with no plans…and I AM SO EXCITED. I need to get some deep cleaning done, organizing, purging and best of all – Christmas shopping! Mostly online because heaven knows I cannot handle the crazies out shopping for long. I feel so ahead of the game this year with our shopping. I already have a few gifts purchased for and we at least have an idea of what we’re getting for everyone. If you have your shopping all done already, I do not want to hear it. You can go sit in that little corner over yonder with all of the other super organized, stress-free people. This area is for those of us who procrastinate and wish we could be like y’all. Anyways, on to the Friday Five…

1  |  These style tips couldn’t come at a better time.

2  |  I have one of these on my desktop right now. Love!

3  |  Well, this is genius.

4  |  I think these would be such perfect gifts.

5  |  I want to eat this right now. Or everything Stephanie makes.
