Friday Favorites {10.11.20} -

Happy Friday, friends!!! I’m so happy it’s the weekend. Joseph and I were heading out of town for our anniversary, but life is so crazy right now that we decided to stay around here instead. My mom and sister are taking over kid duties for us today and giving us the day to celebrate so I’m excited about that!

I’m an early riser and normally do my quiet time and have my cup of coffee alone, but today Joseph joined me!

16 years, guys! I am so thankful for the journey we’ve been on and how God has worked in our lives. This morning as we sat and drank coffee, we reminisced on the past years. We’ve gone through so much. But through the valleys and mountain tops of life, he’s always been my constant. He’s not only my husband, but he’s my best friend. I love this quote because I truly believe it’s true:

It is not a lack of love, but a lack of friendship that makes unhappy marriages. (Friedrich Nietzsche)

Here are a couple of pictures from our family session. Gosh, I love him so much!

I can’t wait to spend the day with him.

But anyways, I chased a squirrel there ha! Today is Friday and I am linking up with Erika and Andrea for Friday Favorites!

Today I’m sharing some current and past faves of mine as gift ideas for Christmas. Guys, Christmas is two weeks away!

Alright, let’s do this!

I am loving these graphic tees. I’ve bought them at Target, H&M and local boutiques. This one is my current fave and it’s from a local boutique, Polished Chic. If you are local, definitely go and check them out.

Also, I’ve been putting off trying the faux leather leggings by Spanx and I don’t even know why I’ve waited so long! My sister always talks about how much she loves hers and I finally gave in and bought a pair. I LOVE them!

I’ve seen all the influencers sharing this shacket. I tried to buy it online a couple of weeks ago, but they were all sold out. While I was Christmas shopping the other day, I went into H&M and they had them in stock!

Also, look at this jean jacket I found at Marshall’s! Y’all, I had a very similar one when I was in middle school. It’s so fun and I love it. Jean jackets are definitely in this year. I love that this one is a bit more sporty and a little longer.

Next up is this sherpa jacket from Old Navy. It’s on sale online, but I actually got it way cheaper at the store. They have a lot of clearance right now in Commerce.

Also, loving this leopard print shacket from H&M. And all of these outfits were paired with my new Air Force One Nikes! Y’all, if you are looking for a fun shoe, these are it. And if you buy them through Rack Room, you can take advantage of the BOGO 50% off special they always have.

Every morning I look forward to my quiet time, worship music and my coffee. It’s no secret that I love mugs and this one is my current fave!

Earlier this year, Mix and Match Mama shared these bracelets. They were multicolor and I thought they were so fun. I decided to get a couple of different colors. I am loving these and apparently they are in style! Polished Chic has some if you are looking for them.

You know I love my Lululemon leggings. Always a great gift idea for your teens and adults!

And, Aerie has some great leggings as well. And they are 50% off right now! You’re welcome 😉!

I am loving dainty gold necklaces right now. And I really like the way they look layered. I’ve bought most of mine on Amazon and surprisingly, they have been great. Here’s a set if you are looking for one. My current fave is the this one.

And, finally if you are looking for a stocking stuffer or last minute item, this one is awesome. It will wipe every bit of your make up off with just water. No soap necessary. I bought one for Mary to use for her mascara and it works great. Just a tip though, you need to wash frequently! I wash mine every two days.
