Friday Favorites

Friday Favorites!

Only a few more Fridays until Christmas!!!  Part of my really wants to rush next week to get to Christmas break but the other part of me wants to cherish every moment–even if it involves exam reviews with seventh graders ha!

Before I talk about my favorite things from this week, I wanted to mention yesterday’s blog post.  If you tried to comment or think you did, it didn’t work because I messed up something  with coding??  I know nothing about computers, so I have no idea what I did.  BUT it’s fixed now, so just know that if you did comment, I didn’t get it so I can’t reply back like I always do!

And while we’re on the topic of blog comments, I always reply back to the people who comment to me with an email.  If you are a no-reply blogger (aka your email isn’t connected to your account) then I can’t email you back!  If you comment and never get a reply, that’s why!

Now, onto today’s FAVORITES!

 My sister came and ate lunch with me so duh, that’s a huge favorite!!!  



 Wrapping presents isn’t a favorite, but a wrapped present is…if that makes sense!  I had to wrap presents for my small group Christmas party so while I technically didn’t really enjoy doing it, the final product was so satisfying!



And speaking of my small group Christmas party, we had it at my house and it was a “Favorite Things” themed.  Each girl brought 5 of the same gifts that were her favorite thing or related to her favorite thing that was only $5–that was the hard part!  I found my gift on MAJOR sale on Black Friday so I gifted each girl with a Jesus Storybook Bible!  We had a great time and I’m so glad to be in a small group with these girls.



Victoria and I just wrapped up our first week of The Most Wonderful Time of the Year link up and it’s been so fun reading everyone’s posts and getting new ideas!  My posts for this week are…

Friday Favorites!

Yay for December 1st!!!!

Christmas is my very favorite time of the year and even though I’ve been celebrating Christmas for a couple of weeks now, I feel like the Christmas season can officially begin now that it’s December.

Today is short and sweet, but I do have a few FAVORITES to share with you.  The most important one (and the one I’m most excited about!!) is the link up that Victoria and I are hosting because it starts MONDAY!!!

This is our second year to host this link up and we’re really excited about the prompts this year.  AND we’ve changed it up a little with guest cohosts this year.  Emily will be cohosting on Monday, so be sure to check out her blog, too!

 I’m selling the dress I wore to The Butterfly Ball, so please email me if you’re interested!
It’s a stretch, jersey material.  I wore it once for only 4 hours and it’s a size 12.  I paid $150+tax and I’m asking $120.  This dress really was a favorite, but I won’t need it any longer!



And finally, Mom don’t get mad at me for sharing these, but they are the CUTEST PICTURES EVER! Mom went through some of her school pictures and sent a bunch to me and Rachel and I love her early elementary pictures!!! Seriously, so, so cute! Her kindergarten picture reminds me of Rachel when she was really little. And notice how my mom cut her bangs right before her 2nd grade picture haha!


And my last FAVORITE?? Next week is my last normal week of school for 2017 because the week after that is exam week! Basically, next week is exam review, so that means I AM DONE TEACHING NEW MATERIAL FOR THIS SEMESTER!! Woohoo! Just now to review everything…


I hope y’all have a wonderful Friday and that you listen to lots of Christmas music!!

Who’s glad it’s Friday??

This girl is!  I’ve been looking forward to this day for a while now–we’re off school today because of Veteran’s Day AND I’m headed down to Auburn to visit my bff since she moved there in September.  It just so happens that I’ll be there during the biggest football game ever but we’re Alabama fans so #nobigdeal right?

AND I want to say Happy Veteran’s Day to my favorite veteran, my dad, who served in the Air Force!  I’m so thankful to everyone who has served or serves in the military to protect our freedoms!

I’ve got lots of FAVORITES for y’all today and I’m starting with my FAVORITE announcement…..
 Victoria and I are hosting our 2nd Annual The Most Wonderful Time of the Year blog link up!  This was such a favorite of ours last year that we’re bringing it back this year with some really fun prompts and guest hosts!!

    December 14th Favorite Meaningful Holiday Memories

    Jot these dates down as you plan your December blog calendar–I can’t wait to see what everyone comes up with!

 We had some time to kill before church Sunday night so we stopped in Books a Million to look at books.  Dustin has been obsessed with Dave Ramsey lately, so he found a book by some guy that’s on Dave Ramsey’s Youtube show.  I have to listen to lots of Dave Ramsey talk all the time…anyone else?



 I’m DYING to get our pictures back for our Christmas cards!!  My sister took them Sunday after lunch and I have a feeling they will be my FAVORITE!  Now to decide on a card…


I’m also deciding on my Christmas list to give to Dustin.  I really want a pair of Ugg house slippers so which ones are more practical/will I love more?
**I haven’t decided on a color yet, but first I need to decide on a style.




 My friend Hailey and I are obsessed really like Loverly Grey.  As in, we constantly send each other her IG photos or stories.  I sent this to Hailey the other day because it is part of her collaboration with a boutique so when I checked the price on the day it debuted, I found out it was over $200….okay, no.



…..aaaaaand I sent this to my friend Emily after we found out Mallory Ervin is having a baby and we had the longest text convo about how we couldn’t tell she was pregnant.  Then I saw this on IG stories so I circled her belly haha!  She hid it well!  We both love her Youtube videos and they are some of my favorites!


And one last thing–I’m looking for really healthy snack ideas that will fill me up but still taste good.  I’m a weirdo and don’t really like fruit, so none of that junk 😂
