Happiest of Birthdays to My Wonderful Husband!


Today my wonderful, handsome husband turns 32!  I’m so thankful he was born 32 years ago and I cannot wait to celebrate his birthday tonight!

Because today is all about him, I thought I’d share a 10 fun facts about D-Shaney 😜

1. He’s the hardest worker I know.

2. He’s left handed but can bat and golf right handed.

3. He has to make a list about everything.  Everything. 

4.  He’s extremely OCD about our finances and I know I can trust him completely with managing our money.

5. He knows everything about sports and stats–high school, college, professional sports…he knows it all.

6. He has a few reality tv shows he enjoys watching with me and right now, Southern Charm is his favorite.

7. We are really competitive with one another–who can hit the farthest playing wiffle ball, playing cards, who can get to the mailbox first (jk about the last one but we did race one time to the mailbox haha)

8. He’s a great encourager.  I can be having the worst day and Dustin gives pep talks that I can only describe as locker room halftime speeches.  

9. He’s accident-prone and also prone to getting food on his clothes.

10. HE IS SO DETAILED!!  Dustin is the only man I know where I have to ask him to not give me so many details in a story….like, please just get to the point.  Sometimes I’m so glad he gives way too many details (especially when it’s interesting) but other times…no 😂

Bonus:  He is an Auburn graduate but an Alabama fan!  ROLL TIDE!

It’s Monday, Already?!

Happy Monday my sweet friends!  I don’t have a blog post full of great content for you today because this is what last night consisted of:
I worked on school work on the computer while Dustin napped/slept beside me.
(#wheredustinsleeps for you Erica!)

We’ve got a really busy week coming up so I spent the majority of this weekend planning for it–Dustin’s birthday is tomorrow and I’m throwing him a really fun party tomorrow night, and then our anniversary is Wednesday!  I haven’t planned anything for that but I’m really hoping Dustin did 🙏

I thought I’d try something different today–join me on Insta Stories as I do a day in the life!  You can find me at @saraheshaneyfelt or click the link below.  Tomorrow is going to be a busy day, so it’ll be a fun one to document!  Plus, I love IG stories and always think they are so fun to follow! 😜

Friday Favorites!

Happy Friday!  Sadly, I go back to school two week from today 😩  While no one really wants to go back, I know I’ll be ready to get back to the routine and for fall to hurry on up and get here!

Today I have a few favorites to share with y’all!

 Last week Dustin and I took a little day trip, and we ate at a pretty popular Italian restaurant in that town.  I ordered the pizza and didn’t realize how massive it would be!  Dustin enjoyed his meal and part of mine, and then the rest of mine became his lunch for work the next day haha!  Day trips are my favorite thing to do!



 We walked all over that downtown together.



 I’ve always made my bed.  Always.  Growing up, the only day I wouldn’t have to make my bed would be my birthday because that was one of my mom’s treats to us, but when I got to a certain age in high school, I was so OCD about making my bed a certain way that I would ask her to not make my bed on my birthday 🙈  All of that to say that when Dustin and I got married, I let him know that the bed had to be made every single day.  He occasionally makes the bed–especially during the school year and I have to go to work and he’s off.  This summer he’s occasionally made the bed even though I’ve been home (a FAVORITE!!).  I’m sharing this photo for two reasons: Dustin made the bed one morning before I got the chance to and I ignored my OCD tendencies to want to rearrange the pillows and left as is!  Win-win for all!



 I took this after I got done eating (because I was way too hungry to snap a pic before ha) but we went to eat at a Mexican restaurant that we never go to but both love!  This summer has been filled with way more eating out than we have ever done!



 Mom rode to church with us this past Sunday and it was a FAVORITE!  It was so nice to spend that time together!



I made THIS RECIPE earlier this week and YUM!!!!  
 And because the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale opens to the public today, I thought I’d share what worked for me/what I loved without doing a separate blog post on it.

The cardigan above is a surprise purchase and love for me because I’m not really a fan of cardigans.  I’m glad I purchased this one though because it’ll look great with everything in the fall.  Side note: I told my bff about this purchase and she couldn’t believe it because she knows how anti-cardigan I am ha!

I showed this sweater on IG stories and got so many compliments on it!  If I could wear it now, I would!

My leopard print scarf also got lots of compliments and don’t judge when you see me wearing it every day.  (SOLD OUT)

I’ve been obsessing over having leather leggings for a few years now, so I took a huge chance on these faux ones AND LET ME TELL YOU, I love them!  Dustin loved them too!  I could do a whole post on my love for them 😂

I was going to keep these jeans because the fabric is so comfortable, but they are high-waisted and after thinking it through, I don’t like high-waisted.  So I have this pair that shipped this morning.


What was your favorite item from the sale, or if you are just now buying, what are you hoping to get?!
