Friday Favorites

 New year, new graphic - same weekly roundup of FAVES!  Erika and I are so excited that lots of y'all are linking up with us every week.  Make sure that you're grabbing our graphic, linking back to us and sharing your own Friday Favorites post ;)

  First up on my list are these sweet girls snuggled up reading babysitters club :)  Babysitters club books were my FAVORITE growing up and I LOVE LOVE LOVE that Griffin is reading them. 

She got  this set of the "retro" books  for Christmas. The fact that books from my childhood are retro is a punch in the gut

Seven Questions

Okay - so here's what went down.  I bought this fiddle leaf five years ago and it was GORGEOUS!  Tall and full and wonderful.  It never branched though so it just kept getting taller and taller.  I moved it to a spot in our family room which it evidently didn't like because it dropped virtually every leaf over the course of about a year. 

Reading Recap

I REALLY enjoyed  The Guilt Trip.  It gave me "The Guest List" vibes but with a little more drama.  6 friends head to Portugal for a destination wedding and upon arrival the lies, deceit and intrigue start.  The dynamics between the friends was interesting and I always love a book that offers a mix of past and present.  

I thought it was going to be more of a "whodunnit" type book but still enjoyed the dynamics and the twist at the end was enjoyable.  I did feel like it kind of dragged on a bit in the middle (it felt kind of repetitive) but overall I liked the book.

Amazon Lately (pt 2)

Today is the exciting second part of last week's crazy Amazon haul ;)  

 Luke got  this logic book in his stocking this year and he's been enjoying working through the puzzles...

  First up on my list - MIRROR BALLS!!!  The festiveness, the way they scatter light everywhere - I JUST LOVE THEM!!!

Sheet Pan Pork Loin Dinner

I made  this pork loin recipe for the first time last month and have made it 3 times since.  It was insanely easy, super yummy and did I mention easy ;)

  

What's Up Wednesday

  Today I'm going rogue and doing a What's Up Wednesday even though it's not the last Wednesday of the month.  I was planning on doing this post last week and got sidetracked by break so here we are!

ALLLLLL the brunch ;)  We've been sleeping in and enjoying some low and slow mornings involving omelettes, pancakes, cinnamon rolls and sausage.  Praise be.

Amazon Lately

I feel like the easier post to write would be what HAVEN'T I ordered from Amazon lately.  

For real though.   I have a lot of fun finds to share so I'm splitting this post up into two parts... one today and one next week.  WHEW!

I ordered  a set of these tap lights to put in our glass cabinets in the kitchen and I love them SO MUCH!  I am not a fan of the super white light that a lot of these put off and this set was warm enough for my liking.

Happy New Year!

 Happy 2022, y'all!  We've been busy playing, snugging, puzzling, baking, RESTING and organizing over here since Christmas.  I hope y'all have had a great start of the year and today I'm sharing a quick year in review in video form - thank you so much for hanging out with us this past year - can't wait to see what this year brings!

See Ya' Next Year!

 Hey, friends!  I was planning on putting up a "year in review" type of post today/tomorrow but things have escalated QUICKLY at our house with some kids room projects and I'm just flat out of time ;)  I'll be back here on Monday and in the meantime you can see what we're up to over on my instagram page.  Wishing you a happy and healthy New Year!

Christmas 2021

Christmas this year was pure magic!  We had a wonderful few days and are so grateful for time with family and all the sunshine. 

Before everyone arrived I snapped these pictures of G - but she'd like the record to show that she didn't ACTUALLY ask for her two front teeth - hahaha
