Happy happy happy Friday!
Every Friday, I link up with three of my favorite people… Erika, Andrea and Narci…and share my favorite things from the week. And this week…my favorites game is STRONG.
My first favorite is a fabulous one…that will prevent me from blogging on Monday (other than Meal Planning Monday) because…
…this guy and me…
…are on a kid-free vacation. (And all the tired mamas said amen!)
Andrew and I left for a few days sans children and are already having a blast.
(And lest you worry about my children, my dad went over their itinerary with me of what the kids will be doing at Papa Jay and Lovie’s house while we’re away and basically, they’re not going to want to leave…)
Speaking of strong favorites for the week…did you see this yesterday?!?!
I partnered with Nordstrom and we are giving two winners $400 Nordstrom gift cards in honor of their Anniversary Sale.
Eeeeeeks!
To see all of the details from yesterday’s post and to enter to win (it’s open to US and Canadian residents!), click HERE.
I am so excited about this giveaway that I can hardly contain myself ;).
Here’s a quick pic of everything I love. You can see it all on yesterday’s post!
And because we’re talking about the Anniversary Sale…when Nordstrom asked me if I wanted to partner up, we talked kids’ clothes and shoes…
…and you know how I feel about Nordstrom’s kids clothes and shoes. I’ve said this a million times but I’ll say it again, the free shipping and free returns when it comes to kids’ stuff is priceless. I don’t know about you, but at my house, it’s often hard to get the kiddos in store, so I can order online, try on at home and return for free if it doesn’t work out. Kids shoes are especially hard for me (I feel like sizes are rarely consistent), so this is a real life saver!
Above are the sneakers I bought for Smith, the Toms for Ashby and ballet flats for Kensington (in other colors!).
Below are just a few of my favorite kids things from the sale. All you do is scroll and click…
So much stuff for back to school!
So, this was one of my recent favorites…
We met Erin Condren!
And we fan girled like CRAZY.
So by now, you guys all know who Erin Condren is and why we love her so much (see my most recent post about her planners HERE). So a few weeks ago, her peeps reached out and asked me if I would like to meet her in person at Staples right by my house. I was like “totally!”! So, I asked some of my friends to go with me and we met her. And she was ADORABLE. You know how happy her website and all of her products are? How they’re just rays of sunshine? Well, she is too. She was so nice, friendly, sweet, funny, personable and cute all rolled into one. Narci, Erika and I had the best time!
I’m still on a high!
Well this post was fun!
On Wednesday, I blogged all about our little hometown of McKinney, TX and you ladies seemed to love it. If you missed it and want to know a little more about where we live (or maybe you want to visit?!), click HERE to read my post on my favorite city!
And last but not least…
…dinner this weekend should include my Grilled Shrimp Tacos with Avocado Corn Salsa. Oh yes it should! See the easy recipe HERE.
See you on Monday with Meal Planning Monday and then on Tuesday with a recap of our little weekend getaway.
Don’t forget to win this…
…you have to enter the Rafflecopter on yesterday’s post HERE. And to shop all of the fun back to school fall stuff that is ON SALE for your kiddos, check out the kids department in the Anniversary Sale.
Have a great weekend!

Enjoy that grown ups only getaway! (As if you wouldn’t.) So cool to meet Erin Condren. What would we busy mamas do without her planners??
Kerri says
I bought my 8 year old Daughter the same flats! We love those Ruby and Bloom flats they are so comfy and work great with any outfit! I also ordered the tall Stuart W boots for her in both colors! This sale is crazy!
Jenny says
I looked at getting my 11 year old son the same shoes that Smith has, but realized he’s moved on up into men’s sizing. Noooo!!!! So much more expensive now! I hope you two have a great getaway!
