Friday Favorites (9.8.16)
Amen to that!
And since it is Friday…
Time for some Friday Favorites!
And you know what that means!
I am linking up with Grace and Love, A Little Bit of Everything, & Momfessionals to share 5 of my favorites from the week!

So I bombarded you with TWO book reviews this week! I thought about spreading them out… but I read them simultaneously so it felt appropriate to post my reviews of them near each other!
First up was Barefoot by Elin Hilderbrand!
You can check out that review… here!

This week I picked up my new favorite sweater!! I am pretty sure I am going to wear this bad-boy all fall/winter. It is sooo unbelievably soft. Wish it wasn't so hot in Louisiana so I could start wearing it now!!

Another favorite for the week has to be the new crochet blanket I started!

I decided last minute to go with 4 colors and I am super happy I did!
Willow also approves!
(His favorite for the week is trying to take nibbles out of the yarn!)

And to close out this week…
This weekend is Ryan & My 6 year Anniversary!
Crazy to think that 6 years ago we were just two goofy college orientation leaders!
Just look at these baby faces!
