It’s the freakin’ weekend!!!
When I shared the first Bless’er Heart Weekends post a couple of Fridays ago, so many of you told me how much you loved it, so I’m just gonna keep ALL of the randomness coming. Haha!
If you missed it before though, I started this post as a way to have a laid-back friend-to-friend chat with y’all to share anything and everything that inspires me, pretty fashion finds, beauty/health faves, parenting love, nuggets of faith, sales I stumble upon, design yumminess, and whatever boats my float that I think you might like too…

- Robert and I are kicking off a secret project that we’ve been plotting for months! Here’s a hint.
- I’ve already started my Christmas shopping by picking up these super soft chenille throw blankets that are on sale for Regan and Olivia’s teachers. (I know, that’s probably crazy BUT I love knocking out all of my Christmas to-do list by Thanksgiving so that I can just sit back and enjoy the holidays. Do you do that too?)
- This fall photo stopped me in my tracks on Instagram a few days ago. This entire feed is full of stunning travel photography.

- The girls and I (along with Robert and both of my parents helping me wrangle them) did a birthday photo shoot last weekend complete with flower crowns and these frilly tutus. Oh, be still my heart! Fun fact: I was a Sears Portrait Studio photographer in college for two years that totally prepared me for these two silly girls.
- I just started using this face primer and OH MY ‘LANTA my skin has never looked so amazing.
- I’m not a huge lipstick kind of girl, but this one in this shade (Viva Glam II) is the only one I’ve absolutely loved, and it works on every skin tone.
- I did something crazy and bought faux leather leggings a few weeks ago. This mama feels smokin’ hot but definitely am reserving them for date nights only. Still getting used to them. Haha!
- This quote totally speaks to me. Real queens straighten each other’s crowns, am I right?

- World Market is having their Friends & Family Extra 30% off Sale this weekend, and these are some of my favorites from it: (Use coupon code FRIENDSFAM)
- Lately, I’ve been starting to plan our office makeover (that we might not even get to until 2020, but it’s fun to dream) and this is giving me ALL the heart eyes for luxe office vibes. Thinking we could definitely pull it off on an IKEA-meets-Walmart kind of project.

- Robert and I shared a peek at our couple’s devotional that we do every morning over coffee along with a few other devotion recommendations I’ve loved. You can still find it in my Instagram Story highlights.
- We still haven’t figured out our Halloween costume in a couple of weeks, which NEVER happens. This was last year’s and I want a repeat! Check out that bearded lady. Haha! Regan was so tiny!!!

- Robert and I discovered this chicory coffee this month and it is the JAM! Plus, the can makes adorable fall decor on shelves, so there’s that. (Can you spot it below?) According to some of y’all on Instagram, the beignet mix is incredible too.
- If you’re starting to think about Thanksgiving hosting, my friend Bre just published a book called The Gift of Gathering that is chock full of beautiful entertaining ideas, and I can’t get enough of it.
I’ll be whipping up some Thanksgiving decorating and guest hosting ideas next week too that will hopefully help some of y’all.
Are you hosting this year?! I know Halloween isn’t even here yet, but we’re usually the early birds when it comes to blog land.
Just finished your post and LOVED everything about it! Hands down the best All Things I’m Loving share imfollow💕Please keep them coming!
Love the pictures of the beautiful girls…absolutely adorable. You captured their sweet personalities – they grow up fast so enjoy every minute with them.
Your blog is a joy to follow, can not wait to see what your next projects are going to be. Enjoy the cooler weather this weekend.
Oh my goodness, how cute are the girls! I just want to pinch the baby’s cheeks.
Where did you get those gorgeous orange glass candle holders? Or did the candles come in them? They’d be perfect for fall decor, if fall ever comes to Florida. (Although I’m not knocking today’s 84 degrees!!!)
Oh my ..the pics of the girls are soooooo cute in their flower crowns. Lovely pics to remember them by.
Wow, loved that photo! Looked at the website, interesting comments from all over the world! Would love to visit that area of the world.
The photo shoot day was good I hope, those you posted are just precious! Great Halloween photo too, your kids will love those when they “grow up”…..boohoo
Cute coffee tin! We have a chicory blend here in a cool red can. The beignet mix I will most certainly try!!!!! I love those things but can’t buy them here in southern AZ! Can’t wait to make some! Thanks a bunch!
As soon as I saw the Instagram pic, I knew it was of The Lakes in England. We lived there for nearly 5 years and would spend most weekends walking on the fells and around the beautiful lakes. The stone cottages are everywhere and there is not one season that is not beautiful. In Spring it starts with daffodils and baby lambs followed by the bluebell woods. The Summer has multicoloured flowers in most gardens with hanging baskets just as lovely. By the time the Autumn roles around the hills and gardens look like they have been set alight with the magic of the leaves. Winter is just as unique with the bare branches glistening in frost or snow or dripping with the incredible amount of rain that the area is known for. Such a lovely memory, as I am now home in Australia.
Oh, wow!! That sounds amazing. I love your visual description of the scenes of the seasons.
