Happy Friday!!!

Today I'm linking up with Friday Favorites!

Hosted by: Andrea, Erika & Narci

As of today, we have exactly 7 weeks until summer break.
7 weeks....we can do it teacher friends & parents!
As a teacher, summer is one of my favorite times of the year!
I can't WAIT for summer!!

Today, I have 10 favorites to share today!

{ONE}

Celebrations are my favorite.
We have had a lot of celebrations this month!
Birthdays & Weddings!
During Spring Break (aka Potty Training Hell) we had 2 birthday parties that week which made the week that much more bearable.
My friend Jackie had a birthday earlier this month:

 Then we went to a surprise party for one of our dear family friends

 My sisters & I on the dance floor with our dad, Jimmy. We never have any fun ;)

 Weddings are also my favorite! Last weekend we had wedding of one of our youth group kids. Having a kid free night with this guy is my favorite, especially at weddings!

I got my dress at Target about 4 years ago...perfect LBD! And, it was $20!

And, tomorrow one of my cousins is getting married!
 I can't wait!

Liane Moriarty is my current favorite author.
She has 6 books and since January, I have read all of them!

The Hypnotists Love Story


Big Little Lies


The Husband's Secret


What Alice Forgot



Three Wishes



The Last Anniversary

I hope she comes out with a new book this year, I loved each and everyone of them.
I just love finding an author I really love...then I read all the books they wrote and get sad when there are no new ones left to read. *Sigh*

Stitch Fix is my Favorite!  
I know I've talked about Stitch Fix before....but it really is my favorite!
My April package arrived yesterday!
It's like Christmas morning....what's going to be inside the box?!?!

This is my 12th month getting a Stitch Fix ....a whole year! (you don't have to do them every month, but I love getting them, so I chose the monthly option. :)
You don't have to do it every month, you can customize it to how you want it...every other month, every 2 months, every 3 months, etc.

When you sign up for Stitch Fix, you link your Pinterest Boards to them so that know what styles you like. If you don't have Pinterest, that's okay because they also have a style questionaire for you to fill out & they have collages of outfits and you rate them on how you like them.

This was the card that was in my package this month...it gives you styling ideas for the pieces they chose for you!

Each Fix comes with 5 different items & it comes with a prepaid mailing envelope, so you can easily return the items you don't want.

You aren't obligated to keep any of it! I have kept at least 1 item each time, sometimes I keep 2 or 3.
It's fun!

Go here to the Stitch Fix website to get started!

Linky Parties are my favorite!
As you know, for 2 years Shay, Sheaffer & I hosted our Pin-Spired link up where we linked up our Pinterest inspired outfits. After 2 years, we decided to make a change, and we are excited to announce our NEW linky party!

I have done What's Up Wednesday since January (you can see them here) and I am excited that it is now going to be a linky party!

Our link up will be the LAST Wednesday of each month & here is the list of questions you can include in your blog post!

 We will also have a question of the month in addition to the questions above....the question for this month is:
"What are you buying/wanting for Mother's Day this year?"

We are starting our first What's Up Wednesday in just a few days on:
Wednesday April 29th!

We are so excited about it and can't wait to learn about What's up with all of you!

Moscow Mules are my new favorite cocktail.
Yes, I will always be a lemon drop girl (and a wine girl!)
But, right now I am in a Moscow Mule phase with the rest of our court.

 I count down the minutes until 5pm on Fridays when it's Moscow Mule time!
A few weeks ago, I ordered my own set of copper mugs

THESE are the mugs I have.
I keep them in my freezer so they are nice and cold when I make my Moscow Mules.
Ginger beer, vodka & fresh squeezed limes...that's what Moscow Mules are made of!

{SEVEN}

Time Hop is my new favorite app. My sister told me about it a few weeks ago & I am obsessed!
Look how little Kate & Claire were!!

I also liked this Time Hop from 2 years ago....

She is still my Giants loving girl. Claire got a Giants towel for Easter & she uses it as a rug in her room :)

{EIGHT}
Full House was one of my favorite shows growing up....did you hear the news?
In 2016 Netflix is releasing Fuller House!!!!
I can't WAIT!!!!
Read about it here.

These 3 are my favorite.
Seeing them interact is my favorite.
Seeing how they love on each other is my favorite.

I love their love for each other.
I love how they love being with eachother.
We have a big sectional couch, but they always choose to sit right next to each other & snuggle.
I am savoring this while it lasts!!
