Friday Favorites {4.26.24}

 Happy Friday!! How was your week? Today, I'm linking up with Erika and Andrea to share some of my faves from the week!  Quick heads up, next week and the week after, I will not be blogging. I'm getting to the end of the semester and the next two weeks I'll be busy busy getting final assignments done and studying for and taking tests. So, I should be back here on my blog on May 13! Ok, let's get into some favorites! Well, this cracked me up 😂. I was in the first 10% of TTPD listeners?!?! I wonder how many people that actually is. I am very much obsessed with this album, and I think it could even take the title of my favorite album.... Our rose bushes are going crazy!! I picked a few last Saturday to put in the kitchen, and I just love seeing them! I was very happy to see the roses come back this year since we definitely killed the hydrangeas. Oops. I'm trying to actually make dinner at least one night a week. The other nights we have a sandwich or something. Basica

My Top Five...

 Happy Wednesday!! Ok, this is something I have been thinking about since last Friday... My top five tracks on The Tortured Poets Department. This was pretty hard for me to narrow down, because I truly love each song! I've been loving seeing everyone else's top five, so here are mine! 1. The Black Dog 2. Florida!!! (feat. Florence + The Machine) 3. Clara Bow 4. So High School / But Daddy I Love Him 5. Fortnight (feat. Post Malone) / Down Bad See, I couldn't even do just five 😂. 31 songs is a lot to digest and a lot to narrow down! I'm getting even more excited for The Eras Tour- I'm going in October. I'm really hoping we get a TTPD song for the acoustic set! What are your favorites so far? 

Hello Monday {4.22.24}

 Happy Monday!! How was your weekend? I'm linking up with Holly and Sarah to share a little bit of our weekend! Other than listen to Taylor Swift's new album all weekend long, here's what we did! Friday night Mexican called for some churros! Yum! Saturday OOTD. My shirt and skirt are both Vuori. Our roses are starting to come back, so I cut a few to put in the kitchen. We went to Kroger to grab some groceries for the weekend and coming week, and we got some of their sushi for lunch. I got the Jalapeño roll. It was really good! Sunday morning Gresham stack!  After church, we quickly changed and then headed to Tupelo so we could have lunch with Caleb's grandparents. It's probably been 10 years or so since I've been to Olive Garden. Their breadsticks are so. dang. good!!  Music for our ride back to Starkville 😉. (please excuse my very dusty screen 😂) I *thiiiiiink* this is my favorite on the album!! 31 songs is a whole lot to process in just a few days. Y'all

Friday Favorites {4.19.24}

 Yay for today finally being Friday!! I'm linking up with Erika and Andrea today to bring you some of my favorite things from the week! Ok, if you know me then you probably know what my absolute favorite of this week is....any guesses?? If you guessed Taylor's new album, then ding ding ding!! we have a winner! As I'm typing this, I haven't yet heard it. But it's still a favorite. I just know I'm going to love it 😂. As for another music fave from the week.... Sabrina Carpenter has quickly become another favorite artist of mine! I am loving her newest song so much. It's so fun! And it's currently my most listened to song on Spotify....... Who's ready for Bridgerton to come back??  I know I am! I saw this at Aldi and could not resist! It's actually really good. I've been drinking it in my coffee, but I feel like it would also be really good it tea- I feel like that's maybe what it was intended for??  I shared a few weeks ago about this book

Mother's Day Gift Ideas

 Happy Wednesday, friends! How is your week going? With Mother's Day coming up soon, I thought I'd share some gift ideas for the mamas in your life! These are some of my favorite things, and things that I like to give as gifts!  Anything from Barrington! I think this St. Charles Yacht tote will be my next Barrington purchase. I especially love the Everyday Essentials pouch to gift! Anything from Gresham! Y'all know I love my Maui bracelets and wear them nearly everyday! But, there are tons and tons of other super cute jewelry items from Gresham- some that I own and love. I don't think you could go wrong with any of them.  I love this tennis bracelet so much! I wear it almost everyday, and it's still in really great condition. I have people ask me if it's real all. the. time. I have it in yellow and white! As for another jewelry item, I love my BudhaGirl bracelets! I love my pink ones, but they are all cute! Every lady should experience a Barefoot Dreams car

Hello Monday {4.15.24}

  Happy Monday!! I'm linking up with Holly and Sarah today!  Today is a very special day, because..... it's this boy's FIFTH birthday!!! I don't know where the time went. It seems like just yesterday I was waiting on the text from my mom to say that he had been born. Last night I started thinking about how he's now lived half of a decade, and that just seems wrong! Everyone should have a "Reid Man" in their lives....he's the sweetest little person, has such a fun personality, he has a heart of gold, and I don't know what we ever did without him.  I mean seriously....where did this tiny baby go?? This was during quarantine, and as weird as that time was, I'm so glad we got to spend it with him and his mama. It's been so much fun to see his little personality shine! Such a mood! He's pretty much always willing to stop what he's doing to give a hug and a kiss and say I love you. And maybe snap a quick picture! Happy fifth birthday, Rei

Friday Favorites {4.12.24}

 It's finally Friday! How was your week? I'm linking up with Erika and Andrea today to share some faves from the week. First up, these new pjs are AMAZING! I am so obsessed with them. How fun for summer?? Y'all know I love my Lake pjs, and I truly believe that comfy pjs make me sleep better. Well, I think these may be a touch softer than Lake, and they are fairly inexpensive! There are so many cute options, and I've got these in my cart right now! I got a medium. Well, it's been super rainy and cloudy all week. So much so that we weren't even able to see the eclipse on Monday. Oh well....luckily this is my favorite kind of weather! I love to sit and listen to the rain, so I did just that for a little bit on Wednesday. It's Master's Weekend! I'm trying real hard to get into and understand golf....it's not going great, but I do love learning all about The Master's, it's history, rules, etc. It's all so interesting! I would love to go

Let's Look: April 2024

 Happy Wednesday! I have two posts for you today! I posted my everyday makeup routine, and then my mom reminded that today is Let's Look! So, I'm also linking up with Erika and Shay today! In January, we "looked" at  How We Clean Our Closets. In February, we "looked" at  Little Things We Do Every Single Day. In March, we "looked" at Our Grocery Carts.   Today, we are "looking" at...... OUR DAILY QUIET TIME! I start my mornings with a cup of coffee and my Bible! Right now, I am still doing The Bible Recap. So, I grab my coffee and then sit down on the couch with a blanket and Bible. I'll be honest, some days I just don't do this. I get distracted by laundry or dishes or something else fairly unimportant. This week, I have been really intentional about my quiet time though. So, I've been waking up earlier to make sure I am doing this. My quiet time is very important to me.  Once I finish TBR for the day, I either scroll a littl

My {Updated} Everyday Makeup Routine

 Happy Wednesday! Today I am sharing my updated makeup routine with you all! I shared my makeup routine back in February last year , but I don't think I use any of those products anymore. So, here's an updated version! First up, SUNSCREEN! I am really bad about using sunscreen on a daily basis, but I am trying to do better. I picked this one up at Kroger yesterday, and I'm hopeful that it's a good one. I haven't found one yet that I just love- maybe that's why I can't commit to putting it on every day. The last one I used really irritated my skin, so maybe this will be better! Before I start my makeup, I use this priming serum from BeautyCounter. I am really liking it so far! I got it as a free gift, and I don't think I would have gotten it otherwise. But now that I've tried it, I will likely buy more once this is gone. I'm having a moment with Covergirl right now! I really like this foundation. It's light but covers well. I apply it with a b

Hello Monday {4.8.24}

 Happy Monday!! How was your weekend? I'm linking up with Holly and Sarah today for Hello Monday. Here's a little of what we did this weekend... Soft serve ice cream..yum! This is at Dairy Kream in Tupelo. Saw this on IG and loved it! So me 😂. I found the cutest shower curtains at Marshalls!  Here's our downstairs bathroom. I've been wanting to put a fun wallpaper in here, but now that I put up this shower curtain I think I'm good with no wallpaper! And here's our upstairs bathroom. I'm glad we had a place for two curtains, because I would not have been able to choose between the two 😂. We watched the CMT awards last night- I mainly wanted to watch because Kelsea Ballerini was hosting! I haven't listened to country music in so many years, aside from Kelsea. I had no idea who some of the newer artists were! Apparently Sugarland is back together??? They performed with Little Big Town, and I loved that! I also loved Keith Urban's performance, and all
