I had so much fun reading your posts last week as you linked up! Thank you to everyone who joined in, whether you shared a blog post or an Instagram photo. I found some new shows, a new way to drink my water, and frankly just had a great time visiting your sites ๐
This week I thought I’d mix things up {yet again – it’s how I roll} and do a video chatting with you about my favorite things. You can get the links to everything below but you’ll want to watch the video to find out why I’m loving them and to hear who won my giveaway! Yay! {{email subscribers click here to watch the video & access all the links}}
Update: I’m so amazingly talented at doing these videos that I totally forgot to announce the giveaway winner! So congratulations Kristie C.! Your goodie bag of awesome is in the mail and on it’s way to you already! Woot! Thank you to everyone who took the time to very kindly fill out that survey. You gave me amazing feedback, wonderful ideas, and encouragement to keep doing this crazy blogging thing – I couldn’t love y’all more.

Thank you so much for the bracelet & other lovely goodies! And I’m really enjoying your Friday Favorites posts! ๐
I LOVE THIS! Ahh, I grabbed my cup of coffee and joined you. I felt like we were chatting together. ๐ I am just dipping my toes into making videos this week, so I am learning from you! ๐
I could not love this more ๐ And I’ll teach you all my secrets right now: Step 1: find a random box to put your computer on and realize it’s your husband’s snow boots. Step 2: Spend twice as much time trying to remember how to use iMovie as you do actually recording the video. Step 3: Record in one take, no edits, because mama ain’t got time for that – but forget half of what you wanted to say and end up showing your pants instead. Step 4: Wait impatiently for YouTube to upload your video, fail, and then just save it to your desktop and start over. Step 5: Embed it in your post but forget to actually include a link to it for your email readers (even though you write: “click here to view”). Yep. That’s pretty much it ๐ You are now a PRO. hehe.
Snort! I made a video for Love God Greatly and had like no time, There was a fly buzzing around on my face, kids yelling in the background, and no editing. Yeah. It was awesome. I so need to learn how to edit.
This was wonderful. Felt like we were enjoying tea. I am going to have to hit Target and check out those jeans.
Oh I love that ๐ And I actually looked for a 2nd pair of those jeans today at Target because I’m going to wear my pair slap out. Did they have my size? Of course not ๐
Aw, I love this! It felt like we were having coffee together…I wish we were! ๐ Happy Friday to you, friend…hope it’s a great one.
Yesterday the Allume IG feed posted a pic of the Hyatt lobby & asked what our favorite memories were – they always include you, friend ๐ With coffee or not – I just adore you!
