Good morning. How was your weekend? We were visiting our daughter which was so much fun. I always love being on her campus and getting quality time with our girl. It’s safe to say I am exhausted today but feeling such gratitude. Here is recap of life lately with the Monday Morning Wrap Up.
TIME WITH OUR GIRL
All smiles for getting to hug our girl. We sure miss her around the house so it’s always wonderful to be on her turf and enjoy time with her. We were blessed with incredible weather which made it even better. And I was just grateful my back was good enough to make the trip. Just so proud of this young woman and all that she is accomplishing.
33 YEARS OF FRIENDSHIP
On top of seeing our daughter we also had five of our college crew on campus. Such a gift! We have all been friends for 33 years. Love these ladies. It’s been true friendship (no drama) from day one and years of supporting one another. Truly grateful for these lifelong friendships.
We also spent time with my brother-in-law and nephew . . . it was a packed and wonderful weekend.
*My argyle sweater is 50% off.
TAILGATE FUN
Shout out to the darling cookies. Nothing better than a day of tailgating. The energy on campus is palpable and always so exciting. I know many of you had parents’ weekends on various campuses this past weekend. So much fun.
LET’S GO!
It was special to see the entire team take a knee in prayer before kick off. Such a faith filled environment and I always love my time on campus.
SATURDAY SHOPPING
Saturday Shopping was a fun one this week. SO many great pieces (including 100% cotton options). If you missed the post you can see it all here.
- plaid jacket
- 100% cotton cardigan
- plaid flannel shirt
- short sleeve sweater (love this style)
UPDATE ONE YEAR LATER
True story time. I have been using this scalp serum and shampoo for almost one year now ( I started in October of last year). No question is stopped my fallout and I began to see so much new hair growth. Then I stopped and wow. More shedding. I am back to the routine again and won’t be stopping anytime soon. I didn’t want to take anything orally and this has been a game changer. I thought I would share my experience now that I am almost 12 months in. My hair stylist also notices a difference in hair growth and fallout when I am consistent.
*This shampoo has been instrumental in putting an end to shedding. And one bottle lasts a very long time.
INCREDIBLE SALE
These frames are a FANTASTIC price right now. We have a group of six in our family room and love them. We happened to frame photos from places we have visited but if you have been wanting to finally print some family photos now is the time. A gallery wall is always timeless (so is oversized matting).
I also notice the dresser we used in our beach rental is 40% off. It’s basic but great. I swapped the hardware with gold and it looks really cute. Three years in and the dresser still looks wonderful.
A HAPPY KIND OF EXHAUSTION
I have heard from so many of you who were on your child’s campus this week. The one thing we all have in common is that we are exhausted. But it’s a happy exhausted which feels wonderful. I did make it to bible study this morning but am now back in comfy clothes to get some work done. Cheers to a slow but productive Monday.
By the way, I had a conversation with a dear friend this weekend about how much this industry has changed (with social media) and I just want to say a huge thank you to those of you who still take a moment to read this blog and be here. I honestly feel like it’s having coffee with an old friend and that if we met in person we would be fast friends. Maybe it’s old fashioned, but I like the slower pace over here.
