TFF + The Pick No. 9

March 4, 2016


Happy Friday!!

a) I can't believe it's Friday (again)
b) I can't believe it's March
c) I can't believe it was in the 60's on Tuesday and then it snowed overnight

I feel like so much has happened this week, and it's all a huge blur! Tuesday was by far my favorite day. I got up and showered before husband left. This. is. huge. If he gets out the door before I can jump in and out of the shower then I don't get one until late into the afternoon when Greer is down for a good, solid nap. I got myself completely ready, ran an errand to Target (who doesn't love that place?!), and made it on time for a walking date with my SIL and nephews. Mind you this was all with my babe in tow. I think I'm getting this whole mama thing down!

We walked for almost two hours. The sun was out, the weather perfection for the first day of March, and a sleeping babe who aced her morning nap in the stroller. With a morning that went so well, the afternoon could only be spectacular, and it was. I need more days like that!

p.s. Don't forget to enter the PinkBlush GIVEAWAY for a $50 gift card!!

T H I N K I N G  > That I never did get a post up about that new blog series I mentioned last week! I'm hopeful to make it happen next week, so stay tuned!!

P O N D E R I N G > The future of this blog and brand of mine. I feel like I'm really starting to narrow down on my vision, and that feels wonderful!


N E E D I N G > The winter weather to disappear. Ya'll it snowed last night and the forecast says it's going to be 70° on Tuesday. How does this make any sense???

L I S T E N I N G > To Ellie Holcomb's "As Sure As The Sun," which was on repeat this time last March. The lyrics gave me the words I needed to hear as I walked through my miscarriage. If you haven't listened to that cd, you must. And see my story about the photo above, HERE.

D R E A M I N G > Of longer hair and a fresh ombré coloring.

S W O O N I N G > Over the weather forecast for next week! Give me spring and longer days already!
