Fri Yay! {Friday Linkups}

Another Friday, another great weekend ahead!
We had one day of warm spring weather this week.  Okay, it was humid and rained a little but it got me really excited for the spring weekends ahead with windows open, outdoor activities, etc.

{One: Early Nights x2}
Monday night I think Derek and I were both in the house and home for the night by about 5:30pm and it was fantastic! The sun of course keeps setting later and later and it just felt like we had the most full night.
On the note of early nights, I don't know what got into me Wednesday but I could barely keep my eyes open! I was in bed by 9pm and it's amazing what a good night of sleep can do.  Thursday the things checked off the to do list were endless!

{Two: Reese, Be My Friend}
Reese Witherspoon instagrammed the photo below.  Seriously, as if I didn't like her before but now she has taco balloons!? That's a dedicated Mexican food lover.  A women after many of our hearts!

{Three: The Cookie Dough Cafe}
All my favorite people know I love cookie dough.  Love. I am in a serious search for this little genius invention this weekend. Why didn't I think of this, I could have been on Shark Tank if I did.  Well, Derek would have had to do the talking and pitch the idea. If you aren't a Shark Tank lover but are a cookie dough lover, read about it here.

{Four: Lilly Target Lookbook}
It's funny because when the Lilly Putlizer/Target collaboration was announced, April sounded so far off, now April 19th is right around the corner.  I think I'll make a decision on the line when it's announced but it looks like there's a couple pieces I'll be interested in checking out!  I'm most interested in the home items and the shoes, which I hope are comfortable! 
No matter what the line will most likely sell out asap.
Full look book (in case you missed it): here



{Five: Weather Means Walks}
My favorite workout is walking outdoors! I'm not a runner, I'll never be a runner but I really enjoy a brisk walk up and down hills, on a trail, etc.  Now that the weather is turning, it's time to get back to that! It's a great workout, time goes by quickly and I love enjoying the fresh air.  Win win win. I'm hoping to get my first one in this weekend.

I was trying for a while to upload a vide of Stella as Simba but it just isn't working and I value my sleep too much.. Maybe next week!
Visualize: Stella as Simba, Derek as Rafiki. The Lion King song in the background.
We've been playing this little game with her since she came home to us and she never seems to mind.

Happy Friday!

Linking up herehere and here today.

  1. YAY, Friday! And woohoo early nights in, those are the best sometimes. I need sleep during the week, haha.

    I am super excited for LP at Target!!! Hopefully everyone can get one thing before it all sells out. And hopefully Target is better about their website than LP during a sale!

    Taco balloons and cookie dough, now I know why we get along so well ;)!

    Have a fabulous weekend, pretty lady!

  2. Oh Ive had weeks with the early nights for sure--sometimes you just need an early night to bed to totally rejuvenate yourself.
    I was super jazzed about seeing the Lily for Target last night! April 19 needs to get here ASAP! So many pretty things for a good price!
    I love Tacos and I love Reese Witherspoon too! :)
    Have a great weekend friend and give Stella a pet for me!!

  6. I just threw the official Lilly release in my calendar with a two day before reminder... I'm still scared it will sell out before I can get there! I have my heart set on a few of the dresses -- but those mugs are just perfect.

  9. I am so super excited about the Lilly line at Target. I may or may not overspend. Let's just hope we can still get the 5% off from our Redcards :P

  10. You are the second person to mention this Lily for Target thing!! I had no idea. So many cute things!! Love Reese and her balloons. I feel like she would be so down-to-earth and fun. That cookie dough cake sounds yummy too. I hope that you have a great weekend!

  11. Hahahaha about the Lion King recreation - we do that with Finn ALL THE TIME. I have an amazing photo of it happening, too. Glad we aren't the only ones. :) Again, love how you and every other blogger this morning is talking about the LP/Target collab - so many pretty things. Have a great weekend, girl!

  12. OMG! I saw that cookie dough in the refrigerated section of my supermarket the other day and I almost bought it bc it was on Shark Tank. I didn't get it but I did get the Cake Ballz. Have you seen that one? They were okay. I will try the dough and let you know how it is. Have a fabulous weekend!

  13. I love Reese's instagram - she posts some fun stuff. I'm still on the fence with the Lily for Target collection. I'll prob check out the home stuff too, I'm a little terrified of fighting the crowds that'll get there early like they did for Missoni.

  14. Early nights are the best! I am glad you are feeling better. Reese Witherspoon is one of my favorites, so I need to go follow her ASAP! I like her more knowing that she is a Mexican food lover, too. Okay, literally laughing out loud when I pictured Stella being held in the air like little Simba. HA! So. Freaking. Funny. If Ava wasn't so big, we would totally do this too. Have a great weekend!! :-)

  15. I can not wait for Lilly at Target, not that I needed another reason to love Target. I keep hearing about the safe cookie dough and I need to find some asap. I loved that Reese posted that picture, it's hard to believe she is just like us, well just way prettier than me. ;)
