Hi friends! Happy Friday! How was your week? It’s amazing here, but it always surprises me how quickly December flies by. I can’t believe we’re less than two weeks away from Christmas and although I’ve checked off most of my list, there’s still so much to do.
In between it all, we try to make time for fun times: a night in Winter Haven, the annual Princess Christmas trip, baking cookies, and watching holiday movies. I’d love to hear what you’re up to this weekend! P has basketball, we see Zootopia 2 Get together with friends and have a holiday party. Hope you have a great weekend!
(Love this book! It’s lighthearted, fun, and festive)
Now, it’s time for our weekly favorite Friday party. Here I’m sharing some of my favorite finds from the week and around the web. I always love hearing about your favorites too, so shout out your favorites in the comments section below.

Bought these advent calendars for the girls at Target. They are cookie dough ice cream! (No added gluten, but contains oats)
Not my favorite… Moulin Rouge. I was excited to go last weekend and ended up leaving during halftime. This is one of my favorite movies, but the story doesn’t translate well to the musical. The book…isn’t good…and they added more pop songs. The whole show felt like a farce to me, and I left my jacket in the car and was cold, so I just called it a day. The only other show I left at halftime was cat, That says a lot haha.
Tips for happiness for busy friends.
Shopping, health and food:
These cute clogs. I’ve been seeing Birkenstocks for a while but didn’t know if I could wear them since I had the exact same pair in fifth grade. I remembered how comfortable they were and how they would go with any denim outfit, so I bought a cheaper pair at Target. Liv was immediately obsessed with them, so I ordered a pair for her too.
Lots of Rio farms this week!
