Friday Favorites: 10/16/2020

I am over here doing a happy dance because it's Friday!  B took the day off today which is rare so we are starting our weekend early. As always, I am excited to join the fun with Erika and Andrea. 

Here is my little round up of favorites from this week! 

ONE:  I went to Wal-Mart and even though I did not have much time to wander the aisles, I did manage to find some goodies. Yes, another Halloween shirt!


My 3 favorite things in one shirt!  Camo, pink, and soft fabric 🤗 This one is so cozy and I think it is part of a sleep set but you just might see me wearing it during the day. 


I usually buy my sleep shirts from Wal-Mart.  They can be a little stiff but will soften after a few washes but this one is SO buttery soft.  I am not ashamed that it’s a Christmas sleep shirt. In fact, I want to go back and find some more. Seriously, so good! 


These are my favorite pants for C.  So comfy, versatile, and love the price! He already has camo and blue pants so we are set for winter and spring. 


TWO: Did you take advantage of Amazon Prime Day?  Y'all, I have to confess that I am new to the Amazon craze or maybe just a little late to it. Amazon Prime Day has never been a big deal to me but I was excited about  one thing this year...the Echo Show 5. I really don't even know what it does but I. CAN. NOT. WAIT!!!! 

THREE: One of my goals for October was working out at least 3 times per week.  Pre-COVID and pre-mama to 2 littles I would workout and definitely tried to make exercising a priority.  Over the summer, I paid for online exercise videos but I quickly realized that I really don't have time to devote to a 30, 45 or 60 minute workout.  This week one of my favorite bloggers (who I feel like is my friend) mentioned this app, Workout for Women: Fitness App. I haven't tried it yet BUT the best part is it has 7 minute workouts. If I can start with 7 minutes then hopefully I can start achieving this goal.  Small steps, small steps! 

FOUR: I am starting to find items to add to my Christmas list.  I have found a few pieces of jewelry that I really like so these are my favorites. I am loving the layered look and found the Addison Triple Strand Necklace from Kendra Scott. It's beautiful and I love how all 3 necklaces are attached so it's really just 1 necklace.  The other necklace is from Amazon and it's 3 separate ones which seems like a disaster for me because I know that I will end up losing one or never wearing them together. I am also loving this necklace and bracelet combo.  

Okay, I am off to have a little fun with my family!  I hope you enjoy your weekend.

Ahhhhhh, it's my favorite day of the week! Anyone else feel like January is flying by?! Kinda loving it because spring is coming.  I am joining Erika and Andrea for their fabulous link up:  ONE:    We went on a little trip to the Tyler Zoo on Sunday.  It is a smaller zoo than Dallas or Ft. Worth but I tend to enjoy them even more because it is more manageable with the boys. We saw some great animals!  This longhorn was beautiful!  The lion was very active and kept roaring.   He was so loud and could be heard all over the zoo.  These guys scared me because I thought the cage was empty until I spotted them in the corner.   The only downfall for me was that there were way too many people not wearing masks for my comfort level.  We have visited 2 other smaller zoos in the past few months and generally most people will wear a mask even though we are outdoors. We kept our distance from people, avoided the enclosed areas, and avoided the animals that were crowded. It was a fun zoo and t

Happy Wednesday, friends!  Today, I am joining Anne from  In Residence  for her monthly  Currently   post.  The first Wednesday of the month she provides a one word prompt to discuss and share. These are so fun to write up and to read.   Currently Arranging: Our  new rug! We had been waiting on one we ordered back in December that was a Magnolia rug but after the date of arrival getting pushed back several times we just decided to get something in stock. We ordered both rugs from the furniture store we got our sectional. We are loving our new rug!  Currently Craving:  Ahhhh, without a doubt my mom’s home cooking. Nuff said!!  Currently Discussing: We have definitely been going round and round with the “what if’s” about my possible job opportunities. It’s a little exciting and scary to think about having to make a decision.  Lots of praying going on too!  Currently Enjoying: We got the pics back from the “personality photo” session.  Y’all, they are precious!  If you have older kids thi

Hello Monday: Currently

Ahhhhhh, friends! Last week was a doozy. I love you TX but not your crazy weather.  Then  Now  I thought today I would just share a few things currently on my mind or currently going on in our life. It will be random but that’s how it goes!  #1- As you know, TX got hit with snowstorms and very frigid temps last week. At times, we were even colder than Alaska.   We heard from our family and friends and some were dealing with the rolling outages, no power for hours which went into days, and no water.  We were very lucky because our only issue was spotty cable/ internet. It was hard knowing that others were suffering while we were okay. However, we did what was encouraged and that was to conserve energy and water. We unplugged appliances, lowered our heat, and used only the microwave or air fryer to cook meals.  We did get to enjoy the snow, had a snowball fight  and made snow angels.  We had to improvise when it came to our snow gear.  We layered socks for mittens and we had these boots
