2019 Week #5 Wednesday Faves

It's time for Wednesday Faves!  Isn't it Thursday, you ask?  Why yes, yes it is.  What can I say?  Better late than never...


1) I got new lamps for my bedroom and I love them!  They are fun and really light up the room so much better than my other ones did.  Wayfair has just what I need, ha, ha!

2) Our awesome Grow Group gets more awesome every day!  As of this year, we are all empty nesters.  Our group has a total of 33 kids in it.  Ahem, "adult children"... on Tuesday night, each couple drew the number of children they have (you couldn't get your own) and committed to praying for them for the semester of Grow Group.  I love it, and consider it an honor to pray for these young adults.  I look forward to getting to know more about them and seeing how God will work in their lives in the coming months.  I am also beyond happy to see other adults pouring into my children.  Love it!

3) I love my UGG slip-ons.  I was very upset when I thought I broke one getting off the plane last Friday.  Turns out it had just come untied.  Dodged a bullet there...I get compliments on them whenever I wear them (I also have them in brown).  They are comfortable and easy to to slip right on!  Zappos, baby!

4) I love this new song, Shotgun, by the cutie patootie George Ezra.  He is so awkward, but his song makes me so happy!  Check it out!

One last thing:  I think it was Amanda that commented on my post last week about wanting to try the weighted blankets.  I just wanted to say that I specifically only use mine for naps.  I have found that sleeping under one all night can kind of make my hip hurt!  I don't use it when I'm just watching TV because it really does make me fall asleep.  And it's a deep sleep!  But, I do so love it for my naps.

Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.  Try to stay warm.  It's FREEZING out there.  I can't imagine living up north right now.  Not with my current wardrobe anyway, ha, ha!

  While I did get some random submissions for Faves this week (Larry’s will never happen), I remained on my own. 1) SHOWKOO Luggage Set  I got this luggage set for my upcoming trip (we leave Sunday) because I need to take the carry on and the duffle with me on the plane. I’m trying this duffle in lieu of my usual backpack. I’m excited about it, and hope it’s still a favorite after the trip! 2) Survivor Season 48  While it wasn’t our favorite season premiere, we LOVE Survivor in this house and we love watching it together! 3) Govee Lights  We recently added a bar in our house and my contractor made this light box and used Govee lights. We already have Govee lights around our TV so I was familiar with them and I love them! They can change colors, be put on a timer, etc., all from my phone. There’s a little glitch with this set, so they are going to be replaced, but they still make me squeal every time I walk into the room. 4) Shut the Box Game  My family, as usual...

  Finally home and settled from our Australia/New Zealand adventure. My Faves this week were awesome for me while traveling! 1) Power Plug Adapter  We have used many different plug adapters while traveling, but these were the best we have used! With one adapter we were able to charge everything and I could even curl my hair, ha, ha! Highly recommend! These were compatible in Australia/New Zealand, so I’m hopeful to find some for our next travel adventure, 2) Rothy’s Sneakers  I may have posted these before, but I love love love them when traveling. I own two pair and took them both with me.  3) One Step Behind by Lauren North  I listened to this book (and two others) while on this trip. I had never listened to a book by this author, and I really enjoyed the book. Unique plot for sure. 4) Coach Sling Bag  This might be my favorite of all Faves! I purchased this specifically for my trip to wear on tours/excursions, and I loved it! It has two zippered compartm...

Friday Faves Cabo Edition

Today I’m in Cabo, traveling with my little Andy for the first time. Doing my Faves while he naps.   1) The Business Trip by Jessie Garcia  I’m not even sure how I found this book, and it seems to be the first one she’s written, but it was SO good! I listened to it and there was a full cast of narrators so it was like a performance. Loved the ending! Thought I had it figured out but I was wrong. 2) happyhappyhouseplant on IG  This is my current favorite account on IG. Her name is Mandi Gubler and she is awesome! I literally do not have one live plant in my house, but I’m obsessed with her and almost feel like I could try one! What I like best about her is that her IG stories aren’t long, and she’s very informative and encouraging. Some people I follow go on and on and tell you every minute of their day. I don’t take the time to listen to those people anymore. Highly recommend @happyhappyhouseplant on IG! 3) Apple Watchband from Quince  I love this silver watchband. I...
