Weekly Favorites

So I thought I would start doing a post on my weekly favorites. I love finding new ideas, products, and recipes from others, so I thought I would share mine. 

Pinterest. Lets  be honest, who doesn't just love Pinterest. It is safe to say that I am completely obsessed and I can be on it for hours at a time. Since we bought the house, I have been going crazy with new ideas.

You know I cannot believe I am saying this, but I am glad Pinterest wasn't around when I was planning my wedding because I would of went overload with too many ideas

You can follow me on pinterest here

Here are a few products I have fallen in love with this week.

You can find this adorable sandals here

Loving this ombre shirt

you will love this little boutique

The thing I love about pinterest is that I find the cutest clothing stores from it.

The downside of Pinterest is you can find the cutest shirt or product and when you click on the link it leads to nothing, total bummer.

I did pick up this cute bracelet that I found on Etsy here

Etsy is another website I am totally obsessed with.

Dolce and  Gabbana. The One.

When I went home over the weekend my mom was going through her perfumes and she gave me this one...

I absolutely love the scent and what I like most is that I can spray in the morning and smell it on me throughout the day

The One

And with a total change of subject...

Pocket Hose

We have been doing a lot of landscaping around the house lately 

and it may be funny looking, but the pocket hose really works.

Weekend Recap

I hope you all had a wonderful Memorial Day weekend! I sure did! We decided to take advantage of my husbands 4 day weekend and go home to spend time with family in Indiana. The last few times we have been home we pack in so many plans into a few days so it was nice just to be home and relax on the lake. Here is a recap in pictures...

Marlee's first experience with downpour rain 

and she wasn't quite sure what to think about it

On our way home... so glad the pups love car rides

(after 2 cross country roads trips they better!)
idk why it flipped the picture sorry

One of the best things about coming back to our little town

is seeing all the flags flying when you go across the bridge

and of course seeing this sweet boy, Dylan

 Spent an afternoon shooting all our new guns, but my Glock will always be my fav

Here is a BA video of my husband shooting his new shotgun

It seriously melts my heart that the pups choose to sleep like this...

Marlee's fav spot is on the back porch where see can stare at the birds and squirrels all day long

(she is the type of dog where she would be outside all day if I let her, but then she will come in at night and sleep in your bed and share your pillow, spoiled?)

and I dont know it is about this couch, but she turns into a cat

Spent Sunday relaxing on the porch reading my book with the pups, doesn't get much better than that

Memorial Day Favs

Happy Memorial Day!

"Salute the ones who died, the ones who gave their lives, so we dont have to sacrifice all the things we love"

Very Jane

I wanted to share a website that I have become obsessed with lately. It is called Very Jane. They have the cutest products at super discounted prices. The products are only on the site for a short period of time, usually a few days, and when its gone or sold out its gone. You can sign up to get a daily email of the new products. Everyday there are new products that you will love! I defiantly recommend checking it out!

Weekend Recap

The focus of this weekend was to tackle the landscaping. When we moved into the house there was zero landscaping. They had a few bushes, but they were sad and needed to go. So we started from scratch and we are very happy with the results. I am not much of a gardner, so we wanted to do something low maintenance. We pretty much gutted all the old landscaping because there was so many weeds, it was very unleveled, and it was all just rocks. We started out by killing/ pulling all the weeds and prepping the area. We just planted some flowers and mulched, and boy what a difference. We always said when we bought our first house we would plant a tree our first summer there and watch it grow over the years. Of course we picked a Buckeye tree. The only problem with that is the nuts are poisonous so we had to keep it away from the dogs. In the third picture you will see our baby buckeye tree! See the trasformation for yourself...

see our Buckeye tree in the left corner...

I got the two big pots from Costco...

Surprising Mom

So for Mother's Day this year I decided to surprise my mom by coming home. It was so hard keeping the secret from her and there were many times throughout the week where I almost slipped. My Dad was in on the surprise. (I thought it would be smart so he didn't think someone was breaking into the house and get his gun out) We got to their house around midnight on Friday and my Mom was so surprised! Not only was it nice to see my mom, but it feels good to be able to just drive over to see family and not be cross country from them anymore. We had a super busy weekend planned. My mom thought it was going to be a relaxed quite weekend, but we had other plans. We went to the Pacers game on Saturday and had a blast! We sat court side 2nd row and it was neat to see all the players up close. Btw, they are super tall! Sunday was Mother's day of course and we had planned to go to the suite at the race track. We got pit passes and were able to walk around and see all the behind the scenes stuff. We had a nice time and I am so thankful to have such a supporting Mom. Now for pictures of course!

The pups LOVE sitting on Grandma's porch!

Gotta love Mom!
