The Friday Faves | Week 4

Happy Friday!

This week has been all kinds of messed up.

Once the snow storm hit over the weekend everything in our world has been placed on hold, delayed or cancelled.

I am currently typing this on Thursday afternoon, and today is the first day this week that X has had school.

It was still delayed 2 hours, but thankfully they had school.

I need to get back to normalcy ASAP!!!

But despite the crazy mixed up schedule, it has been a good week.

So let's back up and look at some of the things that have brought me JOY this week :)

I ordered a couple of books and sweaters from Amazon and they arrived late last week.

Jena Green shared this sweater on her Instagram feed and I knew I had to give it a shot!

Let me back up for a second, if you don't follow Jena already on Instagram...do it now!

She.Is.Hilarious!!!

Oh, and she might be tall, skinny and gorgeous too ;)

She has her own Apricot Lane Boutique as well!

Seriously, check her out this weekend.

You won't be sorry!

OK, back to the sweater.

It is the perfect length for skinny jeans and for those of you who like leggings it is perfect for those too!

I think it is great quality for the price, and works well dressed up or down!

That's my kind of clothing!

I have it in the camel option, but it also comes in black or gray.
For size reference, I ordered up a size so it would be a extra loose fit.

Since we knew we were about to get hit with #allthesnow
we headed to the high school basketball game on Friday evening.
I have mentioned it before, but I'll say it again in case you are new around here.
I love high school sports!

I think it brings me back to my cheerleader days or something, but I just thoroughly enjoy going to high school games :)

I asked these two for a picture and this is what I got...

Who's child is that? ;)

In other news...I finished reading Girl, wash your face!!!

Like I said before, I don't really enjoy reading books.
But when you are bored at home and can't leave because the county issued a Level 2 advisory, you do whatever it takes.
I'm going to be honest....I have never, ever read a book that fast in my entire life!!!!
While I enjoyed the book overall, I did have a few things that I didn't totally see eye to eye on.
Have you read it?
I would love to hear your thoughts!

Due to reading that book so fast, I am now challenging myself to read a few more.
I just started reading Reshaping It All by Candace Cameron Bure.
I just love her!


All that snow we got couldn't totally keep me down.
I did venture up the road to grab some Chipotle for dinner on Saturday night.
Thankfully, I was super close to a plow truck so it made my drive much easier.

And this was the next morning out of our townhouse window...

Again, that snow can't hold me down...
We ventured out on Sunday to have a little cake to celebrate Mic's birthday.

It was kind of funny when we drove by our house how well the roads were plowed in the country.

And just for a better idea of some of the snow we got, this is the sidewalk leading up to the front door at my in-law's house.

Enough about the snow!
I received a fun package from Influenster this week, and I am excited to try out these products!

I share this image on my instastories the other day, but I have to share it here too.

I love the tees from Ruby's Rubbish!
They have the best sayings :)


On the blog this week I linked up with The Blended Blog babes and shared my goals for 2019.

As well as sharing some pieces of clothing that highlight my assets ;)

And don't forget to enter for your chance to win a copy of The Nutcracker and the Four Realms or Playtime with Puppy Dog Pals!

Thank you for stopping by today!
I hope you all have a fun/relaxing/whatever kind of weekend you need!


Linking up with The Blended Blog, Andrea, Narci & Erika!
