It’s the WEEKEND!
Just like every Friday, I’ve teamed up with Narci and Andrea to bring you FRIDAY FAVORITES! We’d love for you to join us. Simply blog some favorites, grab our graphic, and add your blog to the link-up. Easy Peasy!
First up this week is…
These two. Ebby Lee has been asking to go to work with Tab all summer long. It was a last minute spur of the moment decision but on Tuesday this week she got to join him. She packed a cardigan (because the office might be cold), wore a bun (because it looks professional), and took a coloring book (because she’s 8). She got to sit in on a meeting, make copies, and help with some filing. She thought it was AWESOME! This girl and her dad are my FAVORITES!

On Wednesday, I shared What’s Up around our house…spending extra time with these two girls is one of my FAVORITE things to do.

I shared my favorite Nordstrom Sale picks for myself, but I got asked about the items I purchased for my kiddos. To be honest, I didn’t get my kids a lot from the sale. My boys grow like weeds so I try to wait until it’s actually pants’ weather to buy them pants. #highwaters I did snag them some shoes though!
I can’t say enough great things about Ugg boots. I bought Ebby Lee a pair two years ago and she’s worn them a ton for the last two years. Definitely worth the price when you take into consideration how often she wears them. And those booties above she will wear all fall/winter to church and any other dressy occasion. She’s a fan of a dress paired with a bootie. For Bowen, I’m SO thankful for velcro. 🙂 Velcro, Uggs, and booties are our FAVORITES.

Horrible picture and our kitchen was a MESS but this week we had our tv cabinet/armoire/built-in (whatever you wanna call it) painted. I wasn’t prepared for the amount of plastic the painters used. This was the view from the kitchen.
And this was the view from the hallway!
Blurry pic, but the gang’s all here. The painters ran out of paint so the crew and I got up early this week to head to the store the moment it opened.
This was a shot right after they were finished painting. What do you think? It was all a dark wood stain…almost the same as the floors and I just thought it was too much of the same thing. I love it and think it gives our living room a bit of a new look. I still want to do a couple things in here to change it up a bit. I’ll keep you posted. (The color is Benjamin Moore Willow Creek.) I think once we have all it styled it’ll be a FAVORITE!
When Tab and I were first married, I set out to paint a small bathroom red. I’m pretty sure red is just a tricky color to paint, but it looked AWFUL! So awful in fact that Tab requested I never paint again. haha! It worked out great for me because he begs me not to paint walls and is always on board for a painter.

And a big Happy Anniversary to this guy…we celebrate 12 years on Sunday. We’ve talked about marriage before on the blog. You can check out those posts here, here, and here. He’s my FAVORITE.
Hope you have a great weekend! XO
