FRIDAY FAVORITES...MEMORIAL DAY LOVE

Happy long weekend! For those of you in the United States, it’s the Memorial Day weekend and unofficial kick off to Summer! For us, it’s our big Anniversary weekend! We were hoping for a getaway but the area we want to go to is completely booked due to the senior PGA tournament. So it’ll be a day to night date instead on Saturday and on our actual Sunday Anni, we’re going to see… 

 

Top Gun Maverick

Only been waiting for this sequel to Top Gun for 2 years since its release was postponed during the Pandemic. And essentially been waiting 36 years since the original was released! It’s in my top 10 of favorite movies! AND it’ll be our first time back to the theater since January of 2020! Give me all the concessions, lol! 

I think I should wear THIS TEE!!? 

I ordered it, should be here today!

2. Festive Attire

This TEE! 

And how about wearing This one all weekend long and right through Fourth of July! This was a favorite purchase from last year and now you can get it all over the place. I will be talking more about Americana tees in a couple weeks but I had to share this one because I realized I never got any pictures of me in it by myself last year. So cute!

STELLA

And look at Stella and her red, white and blue! She wore this Cute Romper recently and saw her first train!

My Angel!!

3. TV

This is Us! 

This show has my heart and I bawled like a baby during the last episode of the series on Tuesday night! Did you watch it? The writers of the show are incredible and I have loved the Pearson family so much!

Stranger Things

I never thought I would like this show, Stranger Things, but I love it and I’m excited for season four which starts today!

4. Old Navy Tech & OkaB

As I mentioned in a post last week, the Old Navy Tech line really has my heart, I ended up getting the Joggers in three different colors and isn’t that green just so cool? In addition to the ribbed T-shirts, the Ribbed tanks are even better. They are cool, soft and you can tuck them in or just leave them on the outside, they are not cropped at all. AND look at my Cute Slides from OkaB. The are called the Bette. Stella chewed some pearls off, first shoes she's damaged.

Sooooo CUTE!

AND my dear friends at OkaB are having 25% off their website until June 2nd!! I own 3 pair and LOVE them all!!

AMERICANA TIERED TRAY

Time for my summer tribute to the red white and blue with my Americana tiered tray! Can you believe I’ve never done a tiered tray for the good ole USA? Yeah, I like to rhyme! I think it turned out so cute. 

Took me a little longer to get these pieces, especially since Hobby Lobby was closed for so long. But I got the most cuteness off of Etsy with the shiplap sign, the beads, the darling little Rolling Pins and you know I’m obsessed with these mini Book Stacks! 

All the details on where to find these cuties below in this post. And Just LOOK at this round Shiplap Sign...SOOO CUTE!! 

Just look at the newest Knit Mug topper HAT! 

Uncle Sam would be proud!

Adorable Beads and Rae Dun Mug Love too!!

Hobby Lobby additions to this cuteness were the red and blue pedestals, the Let Freedom Ring sign, the fire cracker picks and the truck, foam stickers and camper s&p set. The star bowls is from Target.

However, It’s strawberry season here in Indiana! So, I must share because these are so pretty and delicious! I have created the perfect little strawberry delights! These Strawberry and Cream Crostini’s would be perfect for a brunch, having the ladies over for tea, as an appetizer or heck, I had mine for lunch, etc! And so easy!!
