Friday Finds

Well this week just breezed on by. Tomorrow Jesse and I will take Aiden to Disney for his birthday. Sunday according to Aiden they all have to do "my work" and I get to lay in bed! :) There is a plan to get mani/pedis with my bestie so I am ready for that. 

This article touches on something I am very passionate about and struggled/struggle with as a girl from the True Love Waits generation.

Mother's Day is a great day to remember ALL women. 

These may have landed in my cart in a lighting deal of the day impulse buy. 

There are days with Aiden that I have to just walk away and come back and Ann provided a nice bit of encouragement when I was desperately seeking it.  

I am not a runner (unless I am being chased) but I have felt this desires to run (yea I don't get it either) so I am going to start out slow following this a 4 week plan and try to drag myself out of bed early so I can beat the FL heat! (the blog is currently down I will update when back up) 

I wish this was something more companies did. We drive a good distance to Felicity's school each day and it would be nice to just have one on campus or at Jesse's office. 

The kids and I are headed to Trader Joe's this afternoon for our monthly stock up. On our list: Kcups, waffles, orange chicken, cookie butter, chicken dumplings, and whatever else lands in that red cart. 

Have a fabulous weekend and celebrate the mothers (biological or chosen!) in your life!

It's Friday and I am ready for this weekend, but not ready for next week since my college kiddos are all on Spring Break and leaving me :(

I am so proud to be a UCF alumni and love Iron Man even more after this!

As a mom to a sensory kid  these clothes are exciting.

You have probably seen this on Facebook but I thought it was too sweet.

We are going on a CRUISE! I am beyond excited and might be counting down the days. I also already picked up this tankini and these boyshorts. You know typical mom suit. I have a bikini on the back burner if I continue my semi-healthy eating and exercising.

Also love this dress, even with the zipper down the front.

I am off to spend the afternoon with Aiden and beg bribe him to go thrifting with me!

Have a fabulous weekend!

Friday! Friday! Friday! Yippie!


Tomorrow is suppose to be a rainy one so I think Aiden might love making these.

These devo plan..yes.

When I was doing my Dressing Me post I did a little drooling over this, this, and these.

We love the Crockpot around here and I think this would be convenient.

Thinking one of these may help with our little huge lego collection.


We are off for a Disney night!!

Dressing Me

I am not the most fashionable dresser but at times I can put together cute outfits. Thanks, Pinterest!

Most of my clothes are a few years old and I just find ways to restyle them. I have bought or been given a few new pieces but for the most part they are older or second hand (thrifted or Instagram sales.)

I do this post to show how I make what I have work - most of the pieces I have are no longer available to purchase but maybe you can find something in your closet to make it work. If I can provide a link I will - if not have fun in your closet!

Necklace: Target - old

Cardigan: Banana Republic (Instagram sale: thecuratedcloset)

Tank: Target - old

Pants - JcPenny's -old similar

Shoes: Target similar

Braclets: Alex + Ani

Cardigan: Target similar

Top: Elle (Instagram sale: thecuratedcloset)

Skirt: Target - old

Top: Loft - no longer available

Skirt: Loft - no longer available

Shoes: Target - similar

Bracelets: Alex + Ani

Clearly I am not a fashion model but I hope this helps you put together an outfit and helps me with outfit choices. 

Linking up with the Pleated Poppy.

Because you can never have enough Peeta.

This may or may not have made me cry. #disneyside

Have you used zulily before? I usually order my Toms from here when they are available. But I couldn't resist this shirt for Felicity. There may or may not have been Toms in my cart as well!

Sign Language and Let It Go...be still my heart

Breakfast on Saturday

I hope everyone is having fabulous Friday - I am enjoying the ABHE annual meeting!

I leave you with my cuties!

*if you order from zulily I get a $15 credit

Friday Finds & my first Ipsy bag

A few things I found this week


I know the SuperBowl was a few weeks ago but we are still talking about that shark so why not talk about Katy and God too.

This is one brave mom I think Felicity would dress me like a princess and Aiden would pick pj's and t-shrits everyday.

A kid friendly recipe and helps get rid of boxed foods.

I told Jesse I would be seeing this in the theater.

The office supply hoarding in me is squealing with joy over these.

and the chocoholic is jumping for joy about this.

I found plenty of posts on 50 shades of (insert your choice of words here) but over all I am a strong believer in junk in = junk out. So I didn't read it and I won't be watching it.

Also today my first Ipsy Glam bag arrived. I looked at a couple different subscriptions before I settled on the glam bag and so this month is pretty good. Here a picture of all my goodies:

I am most excited about the Eva NYC/Up All Night Volumizing Spray. Not becuase I need volume -AT ALL but because it's also a texture spray which is good for messy buns!

I already tried the lip gloss and it's a little too club going for this momma. It isn't sticky like most glosses but the color is not me.

Enjoy your weekend full of pink and hearts!!!

As we head into another fun weekend I leave you with my finds from the internet this week:


Jimmy Fallon will forever be my favorite for this skit.

Even as a working mom these pictures are my life!

The debate on yoga pants and leggings is funny at times but I found this perspective from a guy interesting. If you want to know I wear my yoga pants in the comfort of my own home and my leggings with a shirt that covers my behind :)

As a working mom I want Aiden and Felicity to see my love.

These pants are pretty cute, keeping my eye on them.

I am a sucker for a cute black cardigan and this one is on sale.

I leave you with my sweet little 100 year old Aiden. Yay for the 100 days of Kindergarten done!

Have a fabulous time this weekend!
