Happy Friday Five!

I feel like this summer is flying by! It seems like River just got out of school, yet here were are one week post 4th of July.  This week has been so busy. I am on the final leg of a major project at work and it is taking all my focus. However, I have still managed to round up 5 of my current favorites to share on this beautiful Friday.


Friday Five
One
Maybelline Blushed Nudes
I picked this up at Target a few weeks ago and I am so impressed with it. The colors stay on all day and are so pretty, not to mention is was $10! I will be going back and purchasing the nudes pallet.

Two
Endless Weekend
This is the perfect summer scent. It reminds me of lazy summers spent soaking up rays by the pool.

Three
The Astronauts Wives Club
A show focused on the women who stood behind the men who willing launched themselves into space, yes please! The show is based on the book with the same name that is based on the true story. I haven't read the book, but the show is great so far. I love any type of period drama and this is helping me get over my Mad Men ending heartbreak.

Four
Shark Week
I think this one goes without saying. It was especially good this year because River was interested in it. He is now full of shark facts and has been telling them to us non-stop.

Five
Where'd You Go Bernadette
I have had this one on my to read list for a while, so you can imagine how happy I was when I found it at Goodwill. I may have done a little happy dance and then ran home and stayed up all night reading it. It was cute and quirky, I would recommend it as a beach read.


Happy weekending everyone!

With Love,

Happy 4th of July!

This was one of the best 4th of July weekends I have ever had. There is just something about getting to relive holidays through your children that just make them so much better. 



I was off work Friday so I took River to see Inside Out. It was such a good movie, even if Pixar has to make you tear up in every movie they make. We went to a dine in theater and ate chicken nuggets and macaroni and cheese. River's opinion was that it was weird and he prefers the "normal" theaters. My opinion is that "normal" theaters don't serve wine so he can just deal. I'm kidding, I defiantly did not drink wine at the 10 a.m. showing we went to, Did I contemplate it? You betcha!



Saturday I woke my gang up super early so we could go to the 4th of July parade. River and Olivia both loved it and we got way too much candy, but that's what parades are for, right?



That evening my brother and his family came over. We grilled burgers because we are super American and then went to watch fireworks. I can honestly say this was the best firework show I have ever seen. Listening to River oohh and aww over was so much fun. I was slightly worried that the noise would bother Olivia but she loved them and wasn't super grumpy even though she was awake hours past her normal bed time. 



Hopefully, your weekend was just as good as ours! Happy (late) 4th of July!

With Love,
