Happy FRIDAY, y’all!
I’ve seen this been done on an increasing amount of blogs
lately, so I thought I might try it. It’s called 5 for Friday. Basically, you
just talk about 5 things that are on your mind as Friday rolls around. How fun!?
I feel as if I could be a regular 5 for Friday blogger, so let’s start with my
first 5 for Friday post!
{One}
Coffee is something that is sometimes always on my mind, but
especially today. For starters, I’ve been SO sick all week, and haven’t been
sleeping at all, which means coffee has been a Life. Saver. No joke, I wouldn’t
have made it through my first week back at work post wedding and honeymoon at all, especially being sick, without coffee.
My pal coffee has also helped me out this week by soothing my throat with its
warm coffee goodness. Coffee will continue to help me this weekend as I sit
under a blanket Saturday morning {HOORAY for cooler temps} and write a billion
thank you notes! Here’s a few new fall coffee flavors you all might want to
give a try…

Starting Saturday, it’s officially Sweater Weather! Insert
happy dance here. I have so many new and old sweaters that I can’t wait to dig
out and fill my closet with. I’m fairly certain Sunday will be dedicated to
laundry / switching my closets! {I have a closet for winter clothes and a
closet for summer clothes. I switch the closets according to seasons to the
closet in the bedroom} It makes my little heart happy when I switch my closets;
it feels like I get a whole new wardrobe, which in a sense, I do. Here are some
sweaters I am lusting over this fall / winter!
 |
| Oversized sweaters. I need no explanation why I am loving this for fall! |
 |
| Tribal print sweaters! There are so many ways you can dress up and down a tribal print, fun sweater! |
 |
| Studded sweaters are probably my favorite sweaters this fall. Rock and Republic for Kohl's has an amazing studded sweater I grabbed last season, and I'm looking forward to transition it into this fall! |
{Three}
Kirkland’s holds a new, special place in my heart. I was
looking for the perfect new monogrammed doormat {I know, I know, Bed Bath and
Beyond has them, but they aren’t very cute in my opinion…a little too simple}
and lo and behold, I found the most wonderful of all doormats. I give you the
Kirkland’s monogrammed doormat! That’s not even the best part. The best part is
its price tag. You might want to take a seat. This puppy is only $11.99 at Kirkland’s.
I just can’t. TOO amazing! Not only odes Kirkland’s have these amazing and
inexpensive rugs, but they have THE best {and most budget friendly} home décor and
the yummiest smelling candles ever. Plus, they are always running some kind of sale
or special. Blows my mind, I’ll be there most likely right after work.

| The detailing on this doormat really sets it apart from others that I have seen. Thank you Kirkland's for such amazing and affordable products! |

A friend recommended that I start reading Erin Hilderbrand
books if I wanted a good juicy beach read {I was about to head to the beach for
my honeymoon, so of COURSE I wanted a nice juicy beach read!} I bought a few of
her books, one of them being Barefoot,
and fell in love! I can’t wait to read
ALL of her books. They are available on the Kindle also, for all of you tech
savvy gals!
{Five}
It’s the weekend, and I’m Happy Happy Happy! I started the weekend off right with a frozen Cinnamocha
from Sacred Grounds, a local coffee shop. It is literally heaven in a cute
little clear to go cup, and is making this Friday afternoon fly by!
My plans for this evening will start out with a going away
party for my brother in law {he is joining the air force and will be shipping
out for basic training later this month} at my sister’s house. I am SO looking
forward to a night with family, food, and hopefully
a huge glass of wine.
Tomorrow is a day of thank you cards and football! Charles’
brother and his girlfriend are coming over to watch our beloved Razorbacks play
Florida, and I am going to try out a new mojito recipe {I’m on quite the mojito
kick since Mexico…have a good recipe? Comment below}
I’m sure at some point this weekend we will watch Iron Man 3
{Charles is dying to see it, and I like to keep him happy} which means puppy
snugs and cuddles with my husband. You can’t really beat that.
