Five Things Friday IV

October 9, 2015 | baby, blogging, Disney, family, fashion

Friday again? Already? This week flew by! We are insanely boring so we have no plans for the weekend but football and church, however the next three weekends will be crazy so this will be a nice rest before the madness! Here are this week’s five things Friday:

1.) I went back to the outlet mall with a friend yesterday thanks to a huge sale at Banana Republic and bought another pair of jeans. I need more than one pair, right? I may or may not have also bought some other things….but 70% off, come on!

The shorts we $4.50. Seriously.

2.) Today we are taking Emma Kate’s one year old pictures. It’s our same sweet friend that took her 6 month photos, I can’t wait to see how they turn out!

3.) LSU was supposed to play South Carolina at SC this weekend, but due to the recent hurricane madness the game will be played in Baton Rouge. The LSU band decided they wanted to learn to play the SC Alma Mater and fight song so they could play it at the came since the SC band cannot come. Love my Tigers.

4.) Bella got a haircut yesterday. It was getting bad, poor girl couldn’t even see her hair was getting so long. I love that she doesn’t shed, but wow grooming is definitely expensive. It’s a good thing I get my hair cut maybe once a year to offset the cost. I’m hair-low maintenance like that.

5.) Two weeks from today until we start the trek to Disney for my mom’s girls trip for her 60th birthday. I’m glad her one birthday request included me. Excited for the surprises I have planned for her while we are there.

QOTD: How often do you get your hair cut? Do you shop at outlet malls?

    I’m so jealous of your outlet mall finds! I need an outlet mall closer to me. On second thought, no I don’t. That would be very dangerous.

    I went to the outlet malls yesterday to see if I could get another pair of Asics. They had the model, but not my size 🙁 I’ve learned to take any color I can get in my size since I have to go to special stores to get it.

    score on those totally cute shorts!!! $4.50 you cant pass that up. i love finding great buys at the outlet mall, we dont go very often but i do enjoy it. I get my hair cut twice a year but since i dye my hair i get that done about 6 times a year so Im a little more hair maintenance, but way less than when i had short hair. short hair is great for getting ready during the week but has to be cut way more often which is a drag.

    My family and I are heading to Disney in a couple of weeks for the MNSSHP! We have never been to it, and I am so excited! Love your pic in your jersey and running skirt – I’m thinking about using my old princess half costume and going as a runner. Any tips for the food/wine festival and Halloween party? I’ve gotten so many great Disney tips from your blog! Thanks!

      Halloween party is awesome. Don’t miss the fireworks, and the second parade isn’t as crowded as the first. Also don’t miss the new hocus pocus stage show with the Sanderson Sisters. Here is a blog post: https://heatherslookingglass.com/mickeys-not-so-scary-halloween-party-2011/

      Food and wine fest tips…come hungry! Get a map and make your way around. My favorites are the pork sliders in Hawaii, the ravioli in italy, and the cheese booth. yum!

And somehow, Disneyland still makes it feel like the first time.

Same magic.
Different memories. ✨

I started noticing little signs during my normal day. Just occasional bloating, gas, and that slightly “off” feeling. So instead of ignoring it, I listened. I slowed down, moved more consistently, and added Align Probiotic to my routine.

And now… it finally will be. 🤍

We’re not leaving Tennessee, just making a local move that puts us closer to my daughter’s school, closer to our day-to-day life, and honestly closer to the version of life I’ve been hoping for since we moved here. (Aka not so much time in the car!) 

Still Knoxville. New chapter. Lots of boxes. Please pray. 🏡📦

Between dogs, snacks that never make it to a plate, and whatever is happening in my entryway on a daily basis… I needed something that could actually keep up in one go. This one’s been doing the heavy lifting so I’m not doing 12 different cleanups for the same mess. 

Life doesn’t happen in neat, single-surface moments. From pet hair to crumbs to tracked-in grass, real homes have layered messes. The BISSELL PowerClean DualBrush™ is designed to handle it all in one pass without switching tools or going over the same spot twice. 

Promotion: List Price $359.99, on sale for $259.99 ($100 off) from 4/5–5/30. Limited time only, don’t miss it. Link in bio to shop while the deal lasts 👀

I clipped the 4x fuel points digital coupon on the Kroger app, grabbed a Mastercard gift card at Kroger, and turned a quick errand into a little win-win situation by adding in a handmade colored card and personalized note. She gets to pick exactly what she wants. 💛 

I get 4X fuel points while I’m already out running around (because of course I am). Simple, thoughtful, and honestly kind of perfect. 
Head to your local Kroger, clip the coupon, and grab a Visa or Mastercard gift card, but the offer is only good through May 12! Link is in my bio!

Disney dads aren’t born… they’re created one character meal at a time. 🏰 

Tag a Disney dad in your life! (Maybe one you helped create? 😂👀)

Lately our go-to has been Zbar Protein Snack Bars, especially the new Strawberries ‘N Creme flavor that is made with organic whole grain oats, real fruit, and protein to help support growing kids. It’s a snack she loves and I feel good about too. 

It’s a great little reset so she can get right back to doing what she does best, playing her heart out 💕
