Friday Favorites: 11/13/2020

This week seemed to D R A A A A A A A G for me! Anyone else? I would look at the clock and only a few minutes had passed so I am thrilled we finally made it to Friday! I am joining Erika and Andrea for their link up today. Grab your favorite drink and get ready to fall in love with some items from Target. It’s an add to cart kind of day!

ONE:  Last week I mentioned this bin and just wanted to follow up.  Would it be weird to call it "life changing?"  Y'all seriously, I don't know why it took me so long to figure out that THIS is what we needed for all the toys.

It was so easy to assemble and I love that we can see where everything goes. I plan to organize C's room this weekend so I may have to find any excuse to buy another. Please notice that little basket we previously used sitting empty.  

TWO: More Target goodness!!!  I sort of stumbled upon these next 2 items when I was looking for a shirt to wear for our family pics. They both came in yesterday and I love them.  I immediately took pics but haven't tried them on. This  sweater is beautiful especially for the price.


It looks and feels so luxurious!  I happened to get it on sale but it seems to be back at the original price of $20.  There are LOTS of colors so I may have to buy another.  I ordered pink but the tag says purple. I checked online and there is not a purple sweater so I am not sure what happened but either way, I love it!  

AND

This one might be the winner since the boys will be in their red & white striped jammies. It makes more sense than a pink sweater. 


 I wanted something that looked comfy but still cute. I plan to wear jeans with this top and B will be in a gray shirt with jeans so I think the pics will turn out really cute. I can't wait!  

THREE: The little touches of Christmas are a favorite!  I slowly added things this week and hope to have everything done this weekend. If you’re wondering, that  wonderful glow is from the Christmas tree! 😉


FOUR:  Today happens to be Friday the 13th but it is also World Kindness Day!  You know what sort of year we’ve had so why not spread some kindness today. I am going to try and do something either today or this weekend. I challenge you to do the same!

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

Honoring Dr. King

Hey there!   I am linking up with a great group of bloggers:  In honor of Dr. King, I wanted to share what I’ll be doing to remember and honor him. What remarkable words!  I thought it would be fun for the boys to color a picture of MLK. There are tons on  Pinterest but I really like this one from Crayola . If you have older kiddos, you can always google “facts about MLK.” It’s  a great way to discuss and learn more about him with your family. Martin Luther King, Jr. is taught in textbooks at school but how amazing would it be to bring the conversation into our homes about MLK and the Civil Rights Movement.  Did you know that MLK basically skipped high school? He attended Morehouse College when has was 15! He skipped 9th - 12th grade.  That is one of the facts I learned while researching about him.  I’ll leave you with a few more nuggets. Let’s DO better and BE better!  Make it a great Monday, friends.  -A-

Friday Favorites: 1/22/21

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
