Five Favorites on Friday + Forever 21 Finds (free shipping!)

Whew, Friday.  I’m slowly catching up on blogging after a truly hectic couple of weeks.  Davis getting sick coupled with lots of work projects for both Todd and I, meant that my poor blog had to take a back seat.  But it made me realize how much I love this little online space of mine.  So, I’m back, grateful it’s the weekend, and looking forward to basketball, sunshine, and a short getaway with my husband.  Happy weekend!!!

Linking up with my Friday friends again today: April, Darci, Christina, Natasha; Karli; and Erika, Narci, and Andrea.

 

ONE: You guys!  Forever 21 has FREE SHIPPING right now!  No minimum purchase!  I just received an order from Forever 21, and I wanted to share a couple items.  You’re probably all feeling the same way that I am, in wanting to fill up your closet with warm-weather clothes.  Here are 2 of my favorite purchases that are perfect for the transition into Spring:

TWO: I’m working on a “summer body” eating plan.  Nothing crazy!  I am just NOT ready to get into a bikini yet, so I’m trying to be better about my food choices, and do lots of toning.  I already eat very healthy, but I let myself snack way too often.  I’ve said this before, but tortilla chips are my downfall.  I have not been eating any sweets and it is great!  My goal is to fill up more at meals, eat more healthy fats, and less sugar.  I will post more next week.  Here is an example of my breakfasts:

THREE: I went on a date night with my two boys to Viva Chicken the other night.  Has anyone tried it? The food and service were great, and it was fast and inexpensive.  Plus it is pretty healthy!  We let Davis sit in the booth and he basically danced all through dinner. They’re the greatest!

FOUR: Am I the only one who considers chopping her long hair at least 5 times a day? (you can see how long mine is in the picture above). Shorter hair is so in right now, but I just never like when I cut my hair.  I need to make up my mind and embrace it either way.  Ugh, girl problems. 😉  😉
I do love this hair – it isn’t that short (but let’s be real, I’d never actually look like that):

FIVE: Found this on Miss Dixie’s blog recently.  Trying to make this a daily goal.
