Friday I’m in Love

Happy Friday!

On Tuesday, the 5am running crew got together for a little holiday get-together. It was great to actually see each other in real clothes and make-up. It was also the same day that the Chicago Marathon announced who was accepted through the lottery, so we celebrated! Majority of these ladies are running the marathon in October and I am so excited to be on that crazy journey with them. Related to this, I came across this great article this week: 8 Reasons Why Mommy Needs to Run and I love it.

Greg and I went to the Magic game against the Clippers on Wednesday. We knew more players on the Clippers than the Magic this year and I’m still bummed that Oladipo is gone, but we had a good time and loved spending some time together! We headed out early to run a few Christmas errands…’tis the season!

t h r e e

These crazy kids had pajama day at school yesterday. It is hands down the best day of the year in their eyes (and I don’t blame them). They also got to watch a movie, eat popcorn, and drink warm cocoa. The week before holiday break is the best! Pajamas are from Old Navy, here and here.

Happy Friday!

Growing up, spirit weeks were always my favorite weeks in high school. It always meant something fun was happening, like homecoming week or basketball sectional. I have a lot of good memories associated with dress up days at school. This week the kids’ school had spirit week! They had crazy hair day, favorite team day, pajama day & fancy dress day, crazy sock day, and favorite color day. This also meant that they didn’t have to wear their uniforms, which was a nice break for them. I posted some pictures of them on Instagram from the first part of the week, then slacked off yesterday and today. Today they are donning their red and pink for Valentine’s Day!

Speaking of Instagram, you are now able to switch accounts without signing out… every person in America who owns a small business or works in marketing & PR is now rejoicing. Being the techie nerd that I am, I am thrilled about this. I have already signed in to our office account and have toggled between the two accounts with ease. It’s the little things, right?

t h r e e

Greg and I got out of the house on Wednesday night and headed down to the Magic game at Amway. We had great seats which included our dinner & drinks! The Magic lost to the Spurs, but it was a really close game. Though we didn’t pay a ton of attention to the game, it was great spending time with each other and talking without interruptions. It was a fun night!

Happy Friday! It’s the last Friday before Christmas and our last link-up of the year. We’ll be back next year with more Friday love. Let’s get to it…

o n e

Victor Oladipo donated $35,000 to the UCF Listening Center this week to help serve families and children who have hearing loss. Just when you think you can’t love him anymore, he goes and does something awesome like this.

t w o

The Fuller House promo was released this week. I guess we’ll be getting Netflix in the new year… and I may have teared up a little bit watching it. Oh the memories of Full House.

t h r e e

Do you know what I love?
Amazon.
and I love coming home to this… ’tis the season!

f o u r

We are pretty much loving ALL things Christmas right now. Kenley had a small performance at school yesterday and today they are watching the Polar Express in their pajamas and drinking hot (warm) cocoa. Crosby had his pajama day last week and we’ve been moving right along through our advent calendar activities this month. It’s been so fun!

Newsroom is back for its third and final season…so very bittersweet, but we are back to being obsessed. Season three picked up with the bombings at the Boston Marathon. It was crazy reliving the whole thing again and I have to say that I did get a little emotional. The show is seriously amazing.

t w o

Greg and I had a date night this week! We try to get out just the two of us once a month, but that rarely happens. This week we got tickets to the Magic game against the Clippers. Our tickets were in the all you can eat/drink section, so it really couldn’t get any better. I sported my Victor Oladipo shirt and the Orlando Magic Twitter account retweeted one of my tweets. It was a good night! Afterwards we met some friends out downtown and had a celebratory birthday drink before heading home and crawling into bed by 11pm.

t h r e e

Amazon Lightning Deals are my jam right now. I’ve scored several Christmas gifts for the kids including one of their big ticket items at a ridiculous price. Greg and I are still talking about how great of deal we got. The only caveat is that there are a limited number of deals available per item so you have to scope out the upcoming deals and act fast when they go live. I may have an alarm set on my phone labeled “Amazon Lightning Deal”.

One of the perks of living in central Florida is that friends sometimes visit on vacation. We had a chance to meet up with Megan and her family last night at Downtown Disney for dinner and it was so great to catch up with her AND meet her fellas.
