Friday Favorites

It’s Friday! We did it! Yay! I don’t know about you guys, but this has been one heck of a week. Somehow so many of the things I’ve said “yes” to have all fallen in the next few months, so I’m not sure the crazy is going to go away any time soon. It’s a good thing this mama can rock some crazy 😉

This doesn’t really qualify as a “favorite” you can go purchase or watch, but y’all. School is back in session! I joked to my husband that I was going to take a photo of him on the first day of school like everyone else was doing for their kids. He was not amused. Here’s to routines and a quiet house for this work at home mama!

If y’all do a Friday Favorites round up this week, will you share it with me? I’d love to read what you’re loving this week, since you so kindly always read my updates! I’m ignoring categories this week because…well…lazy. Send coffee.

– I’m really excited about this! I always have the best intentions when it comes to starting to eat better & workout, but actually doing it feels intimidating. But this is just 5 days, and absolutely free! Every day on either Instagram or Facebook next week (Monday-Friday) you’ll get one workout move to try, a recipe that we love, and you’ll also get a full 5 day meal plan AND grocery list. For zero dollars. If you want to join us you can sign up here –>

Write 31 Days Shirt – Oh my word! So the first time I attempted a Teespring campaign, it totally failed. I tried too many options (I asked for too many opinions) and it wasn’t connected to anything that really resonated with people. What a lesson in trying again when it doesn’t go well the first time. I have just fallen in love with the 31 Days gals in the Facebook group and it was such a delight to design this shirt to celebrate their bravery. If you haven’t grabbed your shirt yet, would you do that (there’s a T-shirt AND a tank version)? It’s already hit the campaign goal, so you’ll for sure get yours when you order…but I’ve set a little goal in my head that I’d LOVE to reach before the sale ends on the 27th! And if you want to use the easiest site on the internet to design a beautiful shirt – at no cost to you! – check out Teespring!

Girl Meets Change by Kristen Strong – I know I’ve been focusing a lot on Wild in the Hollow because of the Periscope book club, but this book is just so beautiful & encouraging. I’m in the middle of a season of change right now and Kristen’s words in her book – and the crazy prophetic ones that she tweets me – have kept me focused with a new perspective, that change can bring so many blessings. Go pre-order her book, today!

Mossimo Backpack from Target – I’m headed on a quick work trip next week & wanted a backpack that would a) look cute and b) hold everything I’d need. Target, as always, came through with the win! I found this fantastic leather-ish backpack in the purse section near the jewelry and fell in love. It’s soft. It looks WAY more expensive than it actually was. And I had a giftcard. WINNING!

Noonday Collection Fall Line – Can we just talk about this entire line for a minute? Because I’m in love with every single piece that they’ve just released. Specifically the Tidepool earrings and the Golden Rivers necklace (seriously. That necklace. I mean if someone were to randomly gift it to me, I wouldn’t turn it down…). Have you shopped the new fall line yet? What are your favorite “must have” pieces?

Zumba – Ok local friends – think you can’t do Zumba? Think again. Check out this video my girl Suzy took on Monday – I promise you can do this! Despite the serious looks of concentration on our faces, I promise we have a lot of fun (I mean, I’m rocking some neon pink pants) – and none of us ever do any of it perfectly! It’s some of the most fun you’ll have working out – and, in my opinion, taught by the best Zumba instructor in the area 😉

That’s it for the round up this week! In case you missed the live Periscope, you can watch the replay here!

My first Teespring campaign was a total failure too! The second one went really well. Both times were to fundraise at church, and I found that the…*ahem*…older generation was the most on board to help out but was the most tech illiterate. I still had cash transactions! *face palm* I can’t wait to live in the Write 31 Days shirt. Challenge accepted. Yes. Topic? Not a clue.
