Friday Favorites

Happy Friday!!!!


Happy Friday Girls!!!  I am so happy the week is about to end...bring on the weekend!  Today I am linking up with Andrea , Erika , and Narci and sharing some of my Friday Favorites with y'all!  Grab the graphic and link up too!!!!

So, this weekend my hubby is heading out of town, he goes to Florida every year to drive his mom back here, she spends the winters here in NC, I hate when he goes out of town, but I love that he does this every year for his mom.  
He isn't just my favorite today, but EVERYDAY!!!!  This is one of my favorite pictures, Olivia just adores him, and well she pretty much has him wrapped around her finger:)  Second marriages can be a little scary, especially when there are children involved, I am so thankful that I was able to find love again, and be able to marry a wonderful man who not only loved me, but instantly loved my children.....we are all so lucky!!!!!  

One of my favorite things to do is eat, yup I admit it...I love to eat...it just makes me happy!!!  

I was in Trader Joe's last Sunday and these babies were right there as soon as I walked in, well, I needed them, I had never tried them before but I knew I needed them.  It is safe to say that this bag was opened before I even pulled out of the parking lot...and let me tell you....DELICIOUS....sweet, salty, and a little peppermint...Christmas goodness as far as I am concerned...if you have a Trader Joe's by you, you should definitely go and grab these....

The past few months have been crazy around here, and somewhat stressful, both boys were playing football, I was driving all over creation multiple nights a week for practice, they were getting home at 9pm, and then they would eat dinner and then start homework, just very long days, enough to stress this mama out!!!  I started taking some time each day, to just sit for like 15 minutes at my desk with a cup of coffee, or a Pepsi, and write down things that I was grateful for that day, or some good moments of the day, it definitely helped me regroup, breathe and re-focus.

I picked up this super cute little journal at Tuesday Morning, and each day I write in it...it has definitely become one of my favorite things to do each day!

So if you have read this blog, then you know I have a serious love for Kate Spade earrings, I own quite a few of her square studs, and pretty much wear them everyday.  A few weeks back I saw the new glitter ones, and at first I wasn't sure how I felt about them, well after I was home for like an hour I decided that they were just fabulous and I needed them....well I went to order them and the ones I originally wanted, the multi color glitter, were sold out, so I bought the gold glitter ones...and I got them and I LOVED them...I probably wear them 4 days a week, they are fabulous and I am a true believer that too much glitter is never a bad thing!!! Check out my glitter earrings here !  Well I was doing some shopping online the other night and guess what.....
these were available....I have seriously looked everywhere for them,  and they have been sold out everywhere...I went to check them again as I was posting this, and they are no longer available again at Nordstrom.  I am so glad I immediately ordered them the other night, they are scheduled to be delivered Monday and I seriously cannot wait!!!!  Lesson learned, always go with your gut, if you love it, buy it, before it sells out!!!!

So there you have it...a few of my Friday Favorites this week, be sure to grab the graphic and link up...can't wait to read everyone's favorites this week.  

With my hubby heading out of town this weekend, we are planning a whole lot of Christmas movie watching, cookie baking, and not too much else, and I cannot wait!!!  Thanks for stopping by today, have a great weekend and be sure to check back Monday for our weekend wrap up!!!
