Friday Favorites

Friday Favorites!!!

WOOHOO IT’S FRIDAY!!!  I have been looking forward to this day for weeks (or maybe since the first day of school 😜) because after 3 PM I am out of school until January 3rd!  So that’s going to be my #1 FAVORITE today 😊


 Victoria and I just finished our It’s the Most Wonderful Time of the Year link up yesterday, and it was so fun to participate in this month!  I really enjoyed getting to know other people through their link up posts and I got some really great ideas along the way.  To read all of my posts, click here.



 So many things have been happened lately that have just reaffirmed that I married the right man.  Yes, he gets on my nerves at least once a day haha but he’s my biggest encourager and my #1 fan.  I don’t tell him enough that I’m thankful for him.



My aunt Bebo and Moy made this gorgeous table runner for my breakfast table and I love it! I love the pops of red and green against the cream color.  They knew exactly what I needed in my house.


My 7th period class brought in almost 500 cans by themselves!  We came in a close second in the canned food drive (three kids brought in over 100 each!!), so I allowed them to have a party on exam day after the exam.  This is the leftover of our food–I allowed myself three sweets and only ate half of each!


I’ll be doing a little Christmas shopping this weekend.  What do you have planned?

Friday Favorites!!

Happy Friday, y’all!  I’m looking forward to a weekend of resting…and putting up Christmas decorations and cleaning and watching Hallmark movies and catching up on my DVR…you know, the usual ha!  Oh, and add in exercise because I need to definitely do that this weekend!  

Today I’m sharing with you a few of my favorite things!

Here’s a little candid from some photos we took on Tuesday afternoon for our Christmas card.  Well, I’m not completely satisfied (I don’t think), so we may end up redoing these Wednesday.  Nothing like last minute!  #storyofmylife  



I asked Dustin to bring our Christmas decorations downstairs on Monday.  I got home that afternoon and walked into everything piled in our living room.  Because we’ve had something every night since then and I’ve had sporadic times to work on decorating, our house looks like a war zone.  Time to hurry up and get everything in place!



Literally my favorite breakfast: Ezekiel muffins, natural peanut butter, and chia seeds.  YUMMY.



My dad sent me a picture of my grandfather wearing a shirt my dad bought him while we were in New Orleans and my grandfather was waving in the picture.  So I sent him a waving picture back.  

And after looking at this picture, I see my mom waving to me like this in the halls of my elementary school.  #iammymother

Friday Favorites!

Happy Veteran’s Day!  I am so thankful for the men and women who have served or are currently serving in the armed forces.  Both my dad (Air Force) and my grandfather (Army) are veterans!

Today’s Friday Favorites will be short and sweet because I am headed out of town with my dad and sister for the weekend while Dustin works.  I’ll be posting stuff on IG so check there!  (@saraheshaneyfelt)

I love listening to Pandora and different radio stations I’ve created.  The Avett Brothers is one of my favorite bands and I love their station because of the variety of music that plays.  I’m obsessed with this song, and I can’t get this song out of my head!  



 Cool weather where I get to dress cute is my absolute favorite!!!



This was my after voting stress-eating snack.  We were allowed to leave during our planning periods at school.  Mine starts at 11 and so I honestly didn’t think there would be that many people at my polling place since that’s before the lunch rush house.  Wrong!  It was jam-packed, and I had to go through two lines since my town had it’s own special election other than the general election.  

Neat Fact:  I live in a town of 14,000 people.  We were the largest dry municipality in the state of Alabama…..until Tuesday night.  After 14 years of the wet/dry vote being on the ballot, my little town went wet.  



 Dustin hard at work making out his Christmas list because remember, he’s always my favorite!  I posted this on IG and FB and realized that making out a list at our age is way more common that I thought!  I may need to get my act together and make out a list.  I usually just randomly tell him things I want when I think of them.  Lately I’ve been coming up with items for my stocking ha!



This is a throw-back to junior high!  The 8th grade English teachers used to give out these Tiger Pop suckers sometimes during class when people finished work.  My school’s mascot is a tiger so it was fitting.  Now these aren’t sold anywhere local.  My partner teacher is also a girl who graduated high school with me, and her grandmother randomly found these out somewhere.  She brought me one and it was the best day ever!


Victoria and I will be hosting a really fun Christmas link up!  I wrote about it here so check it out to see the list of prompts and dates for each post.  We are so excited to read all of the blogs that link up, and I think this will be a really fun way to find new blogs!


I’m hoping to have a recap up Monday of our weekend trip, but it may be Tuesday if we get back late on Sunday.  I hope y’all have a wonderful long weekend!
