Haaaaappy What’s Up Wednesday!
I hope you’re having a great week! I finally feel like I found my summer rhythm. It only took me five weeks.
As always, on the last Wednesday of every month, Sheaffer and I host this little linky party where we share what’s going on with us right now. It’s a little food, a little family, a little what we’re wearing, a little what we’re doing, a little what we’re watching and a little bit of everything else all in one post.
Sending you lots of love this Wednesday!
1: WHAT WE’RE EATING THIS WEEK:
Did you see my Peach Caprese Salad yesterday? Thanks to all of the beautiful cherry tomatoes in my garden, we are eating this just about every night!
We’re all about the summer salads over here. Make sure you also check out…
…my Peach & Toasted Cashew Salad…
…our Pepperoni Ranch Pasta Salad…
…and Crispy Prosciutto and Melon Salad too!
2. WHAT I’M REMINISCING ABOUT:
Look at these two babies!!! In this picture, Smith is six years old and Samuel is about three days old. On Saturday, SAMUEL WILL BE SIX. What in the world?! How did that happen??? How sweet are these boys?! Ugh. My heart.
3: WHAT I’M LOVING:
My braids. I mean…heaven forbid I blow dry and curl my hair this summer. #notgoingtohappen The little braids are my fave right now. I’m going to share a video tutorial today on Instagram, so check that out if you want an easy way to fix your hair during this hot and humid weather. I braid mine both wet right out of the shower (and let it air dry) or dry. Either way, it’s pulled back and keeps me cool (plus, saves me a whole lot of time!).
4: WHAT WE’VE BEEN UP TO:
The boys were in Omaha over the weekend for Smith’s last baseball tournament. They took in a game at the College World Series while they were there too! The girls have been at home complaining about the weather.
5: WHAT I’M DREADING:
The 10 day forecast.
6: WHAT I’M WORKING ON:
Oh you know…just sitting over here in the a/c making vacation dreams come true! I just love talking to sweet people all day long about their next adventure. It makes my heart oh so happy. We would love to help you too! Reach out to us today!!
7: WHAT I’M EXCITED ABOUT:
Did someone say four day weekend?!
I’ve decided the celebrating should really start on Friday.
8: WHAT I’M WATCHING/READING:
Did you catch my June Book Review this week?! Make sure you go back and read the comment section now too for even more fun summer reads!
Also, I just started this on Hulu…
…it’s so much fun! I’m only on episode three, but I already really like it. It’s clever, it’s original, it’s funny…great TV!
9: WHAT I’M LISTENING TO:
Oh you know…just over here being a coastal grandmother 😉 .
10: WHAT I’M WEARING:
I’m pretty sure my tank broke the internet on Monday. I can’t remember the last time I had SO MANY DMS about one thing! You can find it HERE in both white and navy. It runs TTS and I bought a 2. It goes perfectly with those sandals of mine and my braids 😉 .
Another day, the same ole Amazon tank (under $20!) you’ve seen me wear on repeat. I just love it. My shorts are an older version, but you can see the new version HERE. I also am having a moment though with…
…all of my Kendra Scott jewelry! I added a neon yellow heart and cross to my daily jewelry routine, and these super cute hoops too! I just saw that they’re having a sitewide 20% off sale too! Plus, don’t forget, this is the only strapless bra that I wear and have been wearing for at least five years now. It’s so comfortable that I often wear it year around even when I don’t need strapless.
And if you’re looking for very comfy but cute summer casual clothes, I found this here! The terrycloth shorts and tee make me HAPPY! I bought both in xs.
11: WHAT I’M DOING THIS WEEKEND:
12: WHAT I’M LOOKING FORWARD TO NEXT MONTH:
I have some plane tickets with my name on them…
13: FAVORITE AMAZON PRODUCT OF THE MONTH:
I’m sorry I don’t have a photo of me actually holding this bag, but it just arrived two days ago, and I haven’t left my house. Isn’t it so cute?! I saw this bag on Pinterest and when I found out it was an Amazon find, I had to order! It just looks like SUMMER! It’s lightweight and uber adorable.
That wraps up What’s Up Wednesday! I’ll see you all back here tomorrow! If you blogged WUW too, please link up below! xx

We just finished 1883! And so excited to see next month Virgin River is back!!!
We went to see Maverick last week!!! It was good!

Kelly Bonner says
Shay I realized I posted my comment on the recipe for the pepperoni pasta salad. 🤦🏻♀️ Would this be good for a kids lunchbox do you think, or would it go bad?
Mix and Match Mama says
YES!!!! It’s great in lunchboxes!! Your kids will love it!
Darcy says

I cannot tell you how much I am loving Coastal Grandmother!! I’m on vacay in Punta Mita, and it’s been on repeat since I arrived. Great find, thanks!
Joanne says
We just started season 2 of Only Murders and I am so glad that so far it’s living up to season 1! All your salads look delicious.
Angela Pino says
I absolutely LOVE Only Murders in the Building. Even my dad was doubled over in laughter watching it with me.
Jenn says
I just love your flag. I’m going to try to copy cat that this year at our house. So fun!
Natasha says
