Friends, it’s Friday!
Just like every week, I’ve rounded up my favorite things, linking up with Andrea and Erika and sharing them with YOU!
I hope you have the very best weekend!!
Wow! So my first fave this week is a HUGE thank you to YOU for being so sweet yesterday after I shared…
…our new bathroom 🙂 .
You girls are just the sweetest and all of your comments certainly made my day! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
My next fave is one of YOUR suggestions…
So, a few weeks ago, I shared with you that I dislike Monopoly. My kids and Andrew love it…but after about 30 minutes, I’m done. I swear my family would play for hours, but I’m trying to get myself out about 31 minutes into the game. So many of you suggested we play this card game version of Monopoly instead, and then, my sweet friend Clare gave it to us. We have loved it!! It’s really easy, it’s really quick, it’s really fun, and it’s great for a wide range of ages. Love.
Speaking of love, I’m going to continue talking about these…
…my little arm weights. So many of you have told me that you’ve ordered them (including my mom!), so I just wanted to give it a shout-out one more time. They’re so easy to throw on, light (only 1 pound each), and a simple way of giving yourself just a little something extra when you walk the dog, run, do yoga, vacuum the house…whatever. I am so super pleased with these weights. Okay, gushing over. For now.
Speaking of pleased…
…I’ve been trying to diversify my workout wear a bit this year, and I’m so thrilled with these Sweaty Betty tights! They’re light (not hot, not thick, not heavy) with a nice wide waistband that doesn’t cut you off/feel uncomfortable. The tank is so great that I went back and bought it in white too! Love both!
Also, you guys know I bought this cozy sweatshirt months ago, and it’s still in stock!! It’s so warm and cozy…you will not want to take it off.
One more quick reminder that this workout top from Amazon is such a great piece! I always get excited when I find Amazon pieces that are affordable and made well.
It comes in so many great colors too!
Yesterday’s sweater has been great for the random warmer days we’ve had this week. I wore this yesterday and then also on Saturday…
…it’s going to look super cute with shorts this spring too!
This Amazon sweatshirt has also been on rotation! It’s just soooooo soft!
And then of course, this one too 🙂 .
My final fave this week is my annual VALENTINE’S BREAKFAST FOR KIDS! We always start our day with a fun and festive breakfast for the kiddos. My menu has so many easy and delicious ideas for your family!
That’s it for this week! I hope you all have a wonderful weekend! See you Monday! xo

Loved the bathroom! As the weights re so cute. I’ve never thought about wearing arm weights before. But that’s a great idea!
Alexis Murrell says
Those leggings are calling my name! So cute!!
Jami says
Have you tried Zyia athletic wear? It’s a consultant based/web only company. They have leggings and tanks and sports bras… and joggers… oh my their joggers are amazing. Their peak joggers can be dressed up. They can be pricey but many things are worth it.
Elspeth says
So many fun favorites!!! Thanks for sharing!!

That star sweater is SUPER CUTE!
Carole George says
Happy Friday!! My family is coming through McKinney tonight and staying in Frisco this weekend for a gymnastics meet. Any great places to eat we need to check out? Or things to do?
Mix and Match Mama says
Awwwww! How fun! Head to our historic downtown square! Eat at The Yard, Cadillac Pizza Pub or Harvest. There are so many great places to shop there too.
Molly Stockberger says
Where do you get your longer camis?
Mix and Match Mama says
They’re Halogen from Nordstrom!
Nancy says
I love any boardgame. Even Monopoly. We used to play boardgames with friends a lot. And with just the two of us there are little options to play. Ah well, we can always play Rummikub. Hope to see you on my Fancy Friday linkup party!
Laurie S says
Happy Friday and weekend! I saw your IG post this week about taking off a sweaty sports bra. I had the same issue, UNTIL one of my friends with shoulder issues told me a trick. PUSH your sports bra off over your legs. yes… take your arms out of the straps and push them down your legs and step out of your bra. You can put your sports bra on this way too. There’s enough elastic in the band to stretch over your hips. This has saved my heck and shoulders! It helps to take your pants off first.
Mix and Match Mama says
I am totally going to try this! Does it not stretch it out too much going over the hips? I am so intrigued. I’m wearing a sports bra right now and very tempted to take it off. Ha!
Laurie S says
For me – it doesn’t stretch the band out too much – it’s just a quick pass over the hips. It’s an arm saver! Funny story… one day I put my pants on first, so it took a little tugging to get the bra band over but it was fine! 🙂
Tori says
oh my goodness, everyone thinks I am crazy but I do this ALL THE TIME! I this is also how I put on and take off any sort of tank! so much easier, you NEVER get deodorant on tops, and its not a whole sweaty production
Carlin Smith says
I bought Sweaty Betty tights for the first time and I love them! I daresay I like them better than my Athleta ones? It’s a tight race.
Ellie says
Love your new workout clothes especially the print on the leggings! And the star sweater is so cute too!
Sarah Shaneyfelt says
I just ordered those arm weights, too! I’m actually looking forward to wearing them while I clean so I can feel like I’m toning my arms a bit while cleaning haha!!
Sheaffer Sims says
I LOATHE Monopoloy. Need to try this quick version for sure!
Debbie K says
Hi Shay, I added the Monopoly game to my cart. We are planning some long weekends with our adult children and this would be a fun game for the 5 of us. I’m like you with boardgames, and my husband is sooo competitive that I try to lose just to end it. LOL I think I can handle 45 minutes. Thank you for this find. And I too love the bath room! I love the clean look of the white, but I also love, love, love that wallpaper in the other bathroom! I mean.. I gasped when I caught the first glimpse the day you shared it.
Jodi Shah says
How do the Sweaty Betty tights compare size wise to Athleta? I am an XS in Athleta … wondering if the sizing is similar??
Mix and Match Mama says
I bought them in an xs just like I do the Athleta tights.
Wendy Gourley says
Where is your closet stool from? So pretty!!
Mix and Match Mama says
I need to go look!
HKJS says
I love the star sweater. Did you order tts or go up a size? I like the fit you have for it.
Mix and Match Mama says
TTS!
Christine says
Oh my goodness!! I just realized the floor has the pattern?????? LOVED your old bathroom and LOVE the new one!
Kristy Moore says
My Friday Favorite this week are my flannel p.j.’s-it’s -35 degrees (celcius) here this weekend! Brrr! I’ll be curled up under the blanket all weekend long!
Have a great weekend and enjoy NOT having winter! LOL
Pamela Kennedy says
Hi Shay, I know that the bathroom re-do post was from a couple of days ago, but I had to say something. Oh my stars!!!!!! I mean that is absolutely gorgeous! With the entry into your closet peek, it makes the whole room look so elegant and cohesive. I loved it before, but from the paneling to the hardware…stunning. In the words of a fellow baseball aficionado, that’s a homerun!
Jennibell says
That longsleeved Amazon workout shirt and I’ll love it! Thank you for the recommendation. I think I am going to go back and get another one 🙂
Mix and Match Mama says
Isn’t it nice?! I love mine!!
