Friday Favorites
Happy Friday! My kiddos have been gone to camp this week so it’s been super quiet and fairly low key at my house. It is still a fairly busy time at work but the nights have been filled laughing with friends and spending some quality time with my hubby. I only cooked one time this week so cheers to that! Pick up is tomorrow morning and it’s always my favorite to hear how their week has been.
Here are just a few things I’m loving lately!
Wireless Headphones
On Wednesday I mentioned my new found love of podcasts. Up and Vanished has pretty much had me sucked in from the very first episode! I needed some headphones to really make the experience worth it and decided a wireless pair was the best option. While I assume the beats version has a much better sound, for $20 these have been perfect.
Ever since using Lash Boost and having great success with longer lashes, I seem to be struggling with removing all the mascara daily. I always used the liquid remover and it was just making my eyes feel greasy. I visited my friend Lisa a few weeks back and to my surprise she uses Ponds to remove her eye makeup. I’m totally sold and have not missed a night yet taking off my makeup! Plus it’s so cheap!
Yesterday I shared the Christmas in July gift exchange and I’m loving this pineapple pillow! How fun!
I’ve been using Ghee Butter
Heading to pick these two up tomorrow and can’t wait to hear about their week. Both have been fairly vacant from the camp pictures but I have no doubt they are having a blast.
We received and answered prayer this week and I slept really soundly for the first time in days on Wednesday night. If you happened to read my mention on this a few Wednesdays back and kept me in your prayers I am so grateful! I’ll share more when I can as today is one more step in the process and it is just not my story to tell.
Wishing you all a beautiful weekend! Hope you find a way to stay cool.

Ghee butter is a thing now! I have got to try to it!! And that’s a super cute pillow!
I really do love using it for cooking Sarita!
Wireless headphones. I have been wanting a pair of those for awhile now, but I have yet to grab any. The cords are always getting caught on machines and such at the pool and it just makes me crazy. Maybe I should pick some up soon. So happy you have had most of a week off from the kitchen. Those are the things that mamas dreams are made of.
I have definitely loved the freedom with these wireless headphones. I was always pulling the cord out of my phone. I listened to podcasts on my entire grocery trip this past weekend!
I am so happy you got some sleep and yes, girl, I have kept you in my prayers. No matter the situation or whose story it is to tell I know you’re affected and knowing that your trust is in our Lord I believe your prayers will be answered. God is so good.
Ok, on a lighter note, I totally want those wireless headphones and I am curious about cooking with ghee!
Have a fabulous weekend and enjoy hugging those kiddos!

Thanks Kellyann! Turning over all the control is so hard but I always feel such relief when I do.
My mom keeps trying to get me to try the Ponds cleanser because she said it’s so much gentler than the liquid stuff I use and I probably should try it! I have ghee that I like to use, too! I never thought I would either. Have a great Friday!

I was no longer having luck with the liquid stuff Sarah. And I hated how greasy it felt. The ponds has been super.
I have been meaning to get some ghee at TJ but always forget. I need to get those headphones for my workout! And you know how I feel about that pillow! Xoxo
The wireless headphones have been a game changer for me!
So happy that you have slept better. Nothing is worse then when something weighs heavily on your mind. Have fun picking up the Littles tomorrow and I know you will have some fun stories to share with us! Happy weekend my friend !! xo
Totally agree..and my body just can’t keep going like it use to on no sleep.
I have been wondering how the wireless headphones do. I might have to go pick up a pair. I LOVE Ponds. My dermatologist recommends Ponds products. I really like their moisturizer as well. I hope you have a great weekend!
I’m super happy with this cheap pair Jenna!
I need a good makeup remover so I need to check out Ponds. I have never heard of Ghee but I may need to try that too. Have great weekend loving on your kids!
I had never heard of ghee either Jessica until I started following the fed &fit cookbook. Pretty easy to use!
If you don’t wear waterproof mascara you should seriously try the Loreal Double End Extends. (red and white tube) I’ve used it for years and it comes off like a dream with just holding a washcloth with hot water on it on your eyes or you can pull it right off in the shower if you sleep in it (which I use to every night before I started LB). Have fun getting your kiddos back tomorrow. I bet there will be lots of fun stories and stinky laundry…LOL
I think my longer lashes hold more mascara 🙂 because I’ve never had so much trouble finding a way to take off mascara. Still experimenting with finding the perfect mascara too.
Oh, a quiet week…how I have been longing for that. Have a great weekend
It was really, really nice to have a quiet house temporarily Deena.
Hope the kids had a great week at camp! Thanks for the tip on the podcast…I’m going to check that one out.
Tanya I found another I’ve enjoyed this week…..more inspirational vs entertaining but it was an easy listen. I know The Happiness Project is also a book but I do love listening and made it through like 6 while grocery shopping
You are in Austin this weekend… did you know I lived there? Well, right outside. But for 2 years, I was a Texas resident.
Yes man I did remember you lived near! I love Austin…so much to do but the traffic I could not handle on the daily.
I hope that whatever it is, it continues to go well! I love wireless headphones- they make watching my shows while I cook dinner so much easier! Have a great weekend getting your kiddos back!
Seriously the wireless headphones are a game changer!
