Happy July 3rd!
I’m so excited for Independence Day weekend! I don’t know about you…but the Shull five have big plans! Three day weekend kind of plans…family, friends, food, fireworks…all of that great “f” stuff :).
I hope you have a wonderful weekend too! God bless this great nation!
As always, I’m linking up with Andrea, Narci and Erika and sharing my favorite things from the week. Here they are…
If you’ve been following Andrea’s blog, then you know about sweet Ashleigh who is literally fighting for her life right now. You need to read her amazing story (start here with Andrea’s post) and then if you feel led, buy one of these super cute t-shirts to support her. I bought a pink one this week and can’t wait to wear it with pride! Praying for you Ashleigh. Praying for you, your husband and your sweet kids.
These shirts come in four different colors in both adult and kid sizes. Click here to see.
You ladies know how much I love a good book…and my June Book Review was one of my favorite posts this week (you can see it here)…well, here is another kind of book I love…
…I love any type of Country French book. Sigh. Love. My two favorite Country French designers are Charles Faudree and Betty Lou Phillips (they both have several books!). Well, Mr. Faudree passed away and recently, they put out a legacy book of his work. Be still my heart. It arrived this week and I savored every page. If you’re a Country French junkie like me…you need to check out both his books and Phillips’ books. Love.
Amen.
My friends Natalie and Mandy sent me this mug and it sums up my life quite perfectly. You can find it here on their online boutique. Isn’t that cute?!
And several of you asked on Instagram where my shorts are from and they’re these right here. They’re really comfy and because they’re rolled, you can adjust the length to suit you.
And just in case you need a quick bite for this weekend…
You can click here for my complete July 4th Menu…
…and here for some sweet treats to compliment any red, white and blue get together!
And if you still need one more thing to throw on your grill this weekend…
…try my Greek Turkey Burgers!
Happy July 4th weekend!
And don’t forget, if you’re praying with me this month, the prayer request post can be found here.

I miss your recommendations for things that you like at the Gap!! Please bring them back!! 🙂
Mix and Match Mama says
You know…I was at the mall yesterday and looking through Gap but right now, I'm not loving their summer stuff. Last fall, they did a great job with layers, jackets, jeans and sweaters…so I'm hopeful, they'll do it again this year! Everything is on sale there right now (I think 40% off) but it's not their new stuff…I'm hoping the new stuff comes out soon and it's really good! I'll be on the lookout!
Kim says
Those were my favorite recommendations too!
Kim says
In the model pic of the shorts they look so high waisted..but on your pic they look great..but I can't see your pic that well. Are they super high waisted?
Mix and Match Mama says
I don't think they're high waisted at all! I don't have a long torso, so I'm pretty particular about that Short torso plus high waist equals disaster! ;).
Kim says
I'm going to try them! Thanks so much! 🙂
Mandi Moore says
Shay, it was so good seeing you yesterday! Thanks again for being so sweet! I had to post our selfie on my blog, it was definitely one of my favs this week! I'm excited for this weekend to celebrate, I think I'm going to try your black bean dip. I think it would be fab for pool munchies!!
Mackenzie B says
I seriously LOVE your blog!! You are such a stunning & beautiful person inside & out! Keep being you! 🙂
Lindsay Otis says
Loving those shorts and the different lengths option! Ordered my shirt for Ashleigh as well!

Shay,
I hope you have the most fabulous weekend celebrating with your family. I am on my way to order a shirt in honor of sweet Ashleigh and will keep her and her family in my thoughts and prayers. Thank you for sharing her story with us because the more prayers, the better, right?!
Oh, and a HUGE, HUGE THANK YOU FOR STOPPING BY MY BLOG THIS WEEK. You have no idea how much that means to me – really.
Blessings!

Love your style. Would you consider posting some outfits you wear to church???
Denise Ross says
Happy 4th of July Shay. Love your blog. Prayers for Ashleigh and her family from Oz.
Christy says
This is completely random… but I would LOVE to see a post on school shopping, preparing closets for school, etc. What all you buy for your kids as staples in their closets, etc. :)))))
Mix and Match Mama says
Done! I just wrote it on my calendar for July 22 :). Happy Monday!
Jaren says
I must check out that French Country book! I've also been wanting to ask you to maybe one day show us some of your favorite furniture pieces and details on where you found them. That mug is great too!
