This & That | Loving Lately

Hi friend! I hope you are doing awesome and having a great week! It’s been very full here so I thought we could just do a little This & That type of post today where we just chat and I share what’s new and a few things I’m loving lately.

Grab your cup of coffee or tea- this post is a random one!

This & That

Fall Festival

Last weekend our family went to Dewberry Farms and had such a good time. We got lucky with really nice weather. Every year they expand and have more things to do, more rides and attractions and it seems the food gets better – although I brought my own. 😉 We just packed a backpack with snacks and sandwiches.

I really like these slip on Skechers sneakers for hours of walking. They have memory foam, so they’re very comfy. They got dirty, but washed right up in the washing machine.

By the way, my dryer door broke – the inside glass shattered and it’s been a nightmare trying to get the replacement part. Long story short – it’s been two weeks without a dryer! Hopefully, the part is on it’s way so we can dry clothes in the dryer again!

That’s me, Elliott and his adorable daughter, Abbi. She is seriously such a dream child. Always goes with the flow and easy to please!

Can you believe how much taller James is than me now?!

Here we’re waiting in line for the haunted trail. I don’t like to be scared, so I just keep my head down!

Journaling

Every morning I look forward to my coffee and quiet time. I usually journal and sometimes read, and lately I’ve been sharing little peeks of my journal on my Instagram Stories.

I’ve gotten so many questions about what journal I use and where I got my stickers.

Coffee Queen Sticker Book

My journal is from Walgreens and I’ve looked for it everywhere online and can’t find it. I have to go to an actual store to find it and it’s hit or miss, so I’ve stocked up on a few. I like the big size, hardcover and sturdy pages with college lines.

The stickers are new from Rongrong. I absolutely adore her art and how creative she is. I have this Coffee sticker book and just ordered several more packs with fall and winter themes.

Decorating my journal pages is a fun little hobby that brings me such joy!

New Phone Case

I’m loving my new phone case! It’s so pretty and has a magnetic magsafe stand. It’s so convenient to stand the phone vertical or horizontal.

Sweet Treats

Y’all know I’ve been on a fitness kick all year and have really made it my lifestyle now. I’ve been looking for some sweet treats that are on the healthier side and found two I really like.

Chobani Yogurt really hits the spot for me at the end of the day. They have so many flavors and some yogurts with little toppings too.

Chobani Yogurt Caramel Sundae

And, I was looking for a healthier option for hot cocoa since I know I love to drink that especially during cold winter nights. I found this Bone Broth Protein Hot Chocolate and tried it this weekend and it was so good. Even better than I anticipated! You don’t really taste the bone broth and it’s really like drinking hot chocolate without sugar, only 2g carbs and 90 calories, with 20 grams of protein.

The bone broth protein reduces joint pain, supports your immune system and gut microbiome.

Bone Broth Protein Hot Chocolate • Jumbo Muffin/Cupcake Pan • Jumbo Silicone Liners

My kids like big muffins, so I finally got the jumbo muffin pans and jumbo silicone liners and they loved having big blueberry muffins in the morning.

Vitamins

Since I started taking Ritual vitamins has been the longest run of vitamin taking ever! I like taking these because every time I open the bottle, I get a nice sniff of peppermint since each bottle has a mint tab inside.

Ritual Multivitamin â€¢ Ritual Probiotics

I also researched the brand before choosing these and they have many benefits including delayed release capsule (so your body actually absorbs the nutrients).

They are also traceable with a visible supply chain so you know what you’re putting into your body. Ritual also offers a 30-day money back guarantee, so if you aren’t completely satisfied with their vitamins, you can get a refund.

I also buy them for my teenage son. If you’re pregnant or need assistance with sleep, they have vitamins for that too.

Pain Free T-Shirt Bra • Bralette

If you’ve been eyeing the Dyson Hairdryer, it’s on major sale at QVC. It comes with the attachments and ships free! Maybe ask Santa! 😉

Sweed Beauty

Y’all know I’ve been loving the Sweed Lash Serum for growing longer lashes. That serum has worked so well on my lashes and they are noticeably longer after consistent use.

They also sent me a few more goodies to try that I really like!

Under Eye Patches • Cream Blush (shade LUCKY)

Peptide Ice – Lift Firm Hydra Gel Eye Patches feel very cooling and soothing on your skin. They instantly hydrate and revitalizes tired eyes while helping reduce the appearance of dark circles, puffiness, fine lines, and wrinkles.

It’s formulated with all the good stuff – vitamin C, peptides, hyaluronic acid, niaminicide, caffeine, and avocado oil.

Air Blush Cream – I like you can apply this just by dipping your finger in and applying it to your cheeks with your fingertips. It’s a soft and creamy formula that gives a nice color payoff and smooth finish on your skin.

Sweet Smelling Home

The popular Pura diffuser now comes in a larger size that fills even open concept spaces and rooms with vaulted ceilings. I’m smitten with the holiday scents!

Pura Diffuser â€¢ Pumpkin Fragrance â€¢ Frasier Fir Fragrance â€¢ Winter Fragrance â€¢ Volcano Fragrance 

You can operate this Pura straight from the device or download the free app and control the strength of the scent, the timing, etc. Would make a very cool gift!

  1. You just always look so happy when Elliot is around. It’s so lovely to see. Also I can’t believe how tall James is. I started following you when you were pregnant with Jordan and that just feels like yesterday 😊

  2. For future reference, I recently had to order a refrigerator part. I used Appliance Part Pros, they were fantastic. They have manufacturer issued parts and can help you find what you need (my part didn’t show up when I searched my model number due to being an after factory add on, but the rep helped me figure it out!). They shipped the same day, and it came in two days later! I would absolutely recommend!
