Friday Favorites

Thought it would be fun to get in on the Friday favorites post this week because there are a few things I am LOVING this week. This idea was brought to me by one of my all time favorite bloggers so it is only right that my first Friday favorite starts with her:

1. For anyone not already following her I want to share with you one of my all time favorite bloggers this week. World, meet, Shay Shull. Shay is actually the sister of Sean Lowe (any bachelor fans out there?) and writes an awesome blog called Mix and Match Mama where she shares her stories of adoption, family, fashion, and food. What is not to love right?  Her family is just the cutest.  

2. As you might remember one of my goals this year was to read at least one book for fun each month. This month I had no trouble accomplishing this goal as I seriously couldn’t put this book down. I read “It Ends With Us” by Colleen Hoover. I highly recommend it. It’s deep on an emotional level and rated R (fair warning) but the character development is great and it had you rooting for the characters the entire way through the book…even the bad guys! 
3. Peaches to Beaches. I just learned about this event but I am excited to hopefully attend this year. For east coasters this is a yard sale that runs from Barnesville, Georgia all the way down the coast in Florida. you can read more about it in the link above. Think yard sale meets antique show meets festival. Bring on the treasure hunting! 


4. This Is Us. If you aren’t watching this show I highly recommend you start from the beginning. My favorite show to have ever been created was Parenthood so when I heard similarities about this show I decided to give it a try…and I’m hooked. Great story line. Warning: you will cry. 

5. This spring like weather we are having in Georgia has got the beach on my mind. We have been planning our vacation this year and have decided to go to St. Pete beach and end the week back at Disney in Orlando. Does anyone have any good hotel recommendations with awesome pools that are affordable and not on Disney property? Trying not to break the bank… I have been thinking about this Hilton property:


Hope everyone has a wonderful weekend!
