In honor of Wednesday…I have a bunch of random things to tell you that I’m in love with. Why not? It’s Wednesday, we should celebrate my randomness!
I am absolutely in love with Jimmy Fallon hosting The Tonight Show. In love. Andrew and I are big Fallon fans and so we set our DVR to record the first episode (since we’re asleep by 10:30)…and well, we haven’t missed an episode yet. We DVR them and watch them the next evening together. I was a big Leno fan…but Jimmy just feels right for the part. He is so darn likable and genuine. Love him.
And since it’s almost baseball season (thank goodness!)…I thought I’d share this picture that I love of Fallon too…
…he stars in one of my very favorite movies, Fever Pitch :). I’ve watched the making of Fever Pitch (of course!) and all of the baseball scenes were shot live during actual Red Sox games. If you haven’t seen this movie…you need to. It completely captures Red Sox Nation.
Speaking of people I love…
…I just finished reading Paula Deen’s article in People magazine…
…I’m not sure if I’ve ever rooted for someone’s comeback more than this lady’s. I just love me some Paula Deen!
Other random things for your day…my friend Rachel is about to have a girl in less than a week (which is awesome since she already has 2 boys), so I went over to her house and checked out baby girl’s room and closet…oh my goodness! The organization!
Look at how she has the headbands stored…that’s pretty genius if you ask me. (And note, I do not know where she purchased these headbands…because I know you’ll ask!)
I was impressed with this storage system…and I know some of you will love this and use this idea too!
I’ve been keeping an eye on this watch and waiting for it to go on sale…and bam! It’s now 40% off! Such a fun watch especially for spring and summer. I just love it!
I’ve also been on the hunt for a great flat shoe that is neutral…one I can walk everywhere in this spring and summer with my kiddos. I realized the other day that all of my Toms are in fun, bright colors but sometimes, a girl needs a neutral. After lots of trying on…I found and fell in love with these…
Love.
I researched these babies before buying them and asked two friends who I know have them…and everyone said to buy a half size down. My other Toms are 8s but I bought these in 7.5 because I know they’ll stretch a bit. I’m so excited to have a pair of Toms that blend into the background. Here are a few styling ideas…
I think these Hemp Toms will be great spring through fall actually. Perfect!
And for kicks…some other neutral Toms for your liking…
And drum roll please…
…the Fringe Scarf is back in stock! All four colors are available and I bet by the end of the day, they’re sold out! So many of you have emailed me about these! Hurry up! Click here to see.
And yesterday, I was walking through Nordstrom and saw that these scarves are now on sale for only $8.90! Look! I bought 3 of them!!
I bought the green, rose and grey for all under $30. Hello awesome! The one I’m wearing in this pic is the green one…I would say it’s more aqua/teal and less greeny green…but they call it green online. And because I know you’ll ask, these are my jeans :).
And some random Wednesday pics for you…
This was us on Sunday at church…my amigos.
We woke up Monday morning to ice and snow, so I knew we would be home all day. Beginning my day by the fire with some quality time in the Word along with Jesus Calling…I knew that was the perfect start to my day.
By 5:00 p.m., kids still in their pjs and no one had been put in time out all day…that’s the sign of a really great snow day :). And by the way, Smith had dubbed it “Green Day” at our house…
I’m starting a fun new series on my foodie blog today! It’s peaking inside different parts of my kitchen. Today…

Enjoy your Wednesday!

I'm so so so so glad I am not the only one who loves Jimmy Fallon! I watched and re-watched the whole Lip Flip segment with Tina Fey several times, laughing so hard that I cried each time!
Sheaffer {Pinterest Told Me To} says
Jimmy Fallon is absolute genius. Love him sooooo much. And now I need a neutral pair of toms. Immediately. Actually, retroactively. I need them yesterday.

Hi Shay, I noticed you rarely talk about handbags you carry, which is a big part of fashion. As a mother I'm assuming you must carry a hand bag, so I'm wondering why you never discuss? Are you like me and always carry the same one? Seems like you would mix and match it up with handbags? I'd be curious to see what you are carrying with all these adorable outfits.
Have a great day!
Sherrie S. says
Jimmy Fallon has been great. Your kiddos are adorable. Love your hair in the pic with the scarf!

I'm anxiously waiting for another "Ask away with Shay!" Will you do these posts randomly or weekly? I would love to know your bedtime routine with your kids 🙂
Emily says
My husband and I have the same exact Jimmy Fallon routine! We love him and we hope he is on the Tonight Show a long time! I loved the article about Paula also. And I live in Toms. Great post! I look forward to them every morning!
Tab & Erika says
You NEED that watch. No doubt!!! You have "green day"…we have "act like a dog day"…it's all the same, right?
Tessa Ernst says
I love these posts. Also love Fallon and that watch!!
Blue-Eyed Bride says
I just love you. We are HUGE Jimmy Fallon fans. I love that he giggles at himself in all the old SNL sketches. And Fever Pitch? Top 10 favorite movie. Love everything about it. I need some neutral Toms, too. I actually am thinking about the espadrilles. Happy Wednesday, friend!

This entire post just made my day! I too am loving Jimmy Fallon, and Fever Pitch is one of my favorite movies as well! And I love me some Paula Deen, but now I must go get a copy of People! Have you ever been to one of her restaurants? Heavenly I tell you, heavenly!!
Lastly, give me a new Michael Kors and pair of Toms and I will rock it everyday! Love the look of both!
Have a great day!
Keisha Dawson says
Thanks for the tip on the cute scarves! Such a great price, I had to snag one. Neutral Toms are my favorite! They were my first pair to ever purchase and they go with everything and can been worn in three out of four seasons!
Olivia says
Oh my gosh I love you for posting about those $8 scarves. I love those types and hate spending more than $10 on one so thanks! 🙂

I haven't been up late enough to see Jimmy, but I figured he'd be great. He was great when he was on after Leno and hysterical on SNL! I love those neutral Toms…I have some bday money burning a hole in my pocket! 🙂

I enjoy reading your blog so much! I do have a question though. How do you store Kensington's bows? I'm looking for good bow storage methods because I can never keep track!
Paula says
The article with Paula also mentions a restaurant opening up in Pigeon Forge. …that is HERE! 15 MINUTES from my home! Yiiiiiipppppeeeee!

I realize this is from a few years ago.. But where did your friend purchase the materials to do the bow organization inside the closet?
