Friday Favorites

This week was a loooong one! BUT, it’s Friday and I’m really thankful for that!

One.Each year I get a gift for my co-workers. When I saw this picture (leave it to the Gaines’!) I had an idea to switch things up and create a homemade gift this year. Buy a mason jar, make my homemade granola, and simply put a gift tag on it with a sweet note! Done! 🙂 I can’t wait to hand these out!

Two.You could also make some of my Peppermint Bark. It’s definitely a crowd favorite!

Three.

Remember how I said here that we are redoing our guest room? It’s being turned into our nursery and the crib is being delivered on Saturday! 🙂 How could that not be a favorite?

Four.For our wedding, we received (a round version) of this bin. I love the style of it and the fact that it holds most (we have a lot) of our blankets! I saw this the other day and ordered one since it was on sale. I now love it equally as much that I plan on ordering a few more. I’m thinking in the bathroom closet as storage? To hold books next to our desk? I have a million ideas in my head. 🙂

Five.This giveaway ends at 11:59 p.m today! Make sure you enter here! Happy weekend!

Friday Favorites

Happy December everyone! This week was THE BEST! 

One.

First, my class and staff at school found out that I was pregnant and everyone was SO sweet! The e-mails and how excited the kids were meant the world! It was such a special moment. 🙂

Two.Telling everyone on here with our Christmas card was without a doubt, equally as fun and sweet! Thank you so much for all the kind comments. They mean more than you know! xo Also, how cute are these moccasins?! They say boy moccasins but I thought they seemed gender neutral. 🙂 We did hear the heartbeat this week and scheduled our appointment to find out the gender…so we’ll know soon enough!

Three.Want to know one of the easiest entertaining meals? Start off with a salad or cheese board, serve my Autumn Roast as the main meal, and my Blueberry Crisp with ice cream (or yogurt) for dessert. DONE!

I had some girls over last night and this was exactly what I served. The prep was all done before anyone arrived and I could enjoy spending time with everyone rather than running around in the kitchen. 🙂

Four.Today is THE LAST day to enter for your chance at winning this set of recipe cards! You can enter the giveaway here!
