How was your week? Tonight we have nothing but dinner out on the calendar and this mama is HERE FOR IT! I have big plans to watch a fall movie with the family after dinner, catch College Game Day on Saturday morning and then all three of our games on Saturday are right in the middle of the day which means we’ll get cozy with college football on television.
I’m here sharing my FRIDAY FAVORITES with Andrea. If you blogged your faves, please link up with us so others can check out your post.
Disclaimer here…my first FAVORITE is super random, but it is revolutionizing my sleep! I’m telling you-super random!

Do you guys remember back in 2018 we raised money for Sheafferâs cousin Aldenâs family as her son,Holt, was going through cancer treatment. You showed up in a big way, and ever since Holt was declared in remission (praise God!), Alden has been on a mission to pay it forward.
Twice a year, she identifies a local family in need, and she works hard to raise funds for the family. Just this past March she raised $9,000 to help a sweet boy with Cerebral Palsy get a therapy dog!
This month, sheâs focusing her efforts on sweet Braxton. Alden made a super informative video on YouTube HERE where she shares Braxtonâs story and pictures of the family. Braxton has a story unlike any other. Braxton was diagnosed in 2018 with neuroblastoma and spent the next year fighting for his life. After the long and hard treatment, scans would show that he beat neuroblastoma and the family was of course overjoyed! However, as a side effect to some of the chemotherapies he received, he has developed pulmonary fibrosis which is a very serious and possibly terminal diagnosis.
I feel certain that all of you are going to fall in love with Braxton, and Iâm hoping many will feel led to help! You can continue to get to know Braxton and his family on Aldenâs facebook HERE and her instagram HERE where she will keep sharing tidbits about the family until the fundraiser is closed.
When Alden started these fundraisers, she decided to use her baking talents and bake âCookies for a Causeâ, with an option of just giving directly as well. This go around, she has already committed to baking over 150 dozen cookies. WHOAH. And although sheâs perfectly happy to bake her little heart out to benefit Braxton, I would like to suggest that we forego the cookie element, and we give directly.
If you would like to give a cash donation, you can do so via the following:

*Zelle (feedingfridaynightlights@gmail.com)
*PayPal (feedingfridaynightlights@gmail.com)
Letâs all join together and really bless the socks off of Braxton and his precious family!

OMG we were addicted to Kims Convenience! Did you hear how it ended though!?? I literally cried! We were all ready for another season!!
You and Shay have the best Podcast ever ! You are both my favorites. Keep them coming, I've gotten so many great ideas from each and every podcast. Happy Friday !
Ok! Iâm sold on the pillow. I donât want wrinkles from sleeping! BUT, Is it comfortable too??
Hi Amy Grace! Yes! Great question! Super comfortable!
I am so curious about that pillow! I need you to take a selfie on it please! đ
That pillow is very interesting. How do you wash the cover? I am a side sleeper. I started using a silk pillowcase yrs ago and saw big improvement in my face.
Sl-you could put the silk pillowcase over it. That blue cover unzips and you can wash it as well.
I LOVE Kim's Convenience; it's so cute.
