New Twist On An Old Favorite: Jean Jacket

Hi Foxy Friends! Another Wednesday and another fashion post for you all. Today I'm sharing one of the things I got in my Seattle haul when I was up there.

Related: Seattle Vlog

First can we talk about how comfortable this jacket is? I mean it's not only stylish, but it is so soft and comfortable and WARM! I'm always, always cold, and when I grab this jacket, I'm never cold, you know for the 60°F (15°C) weather we are currently having.

The sleeves on this jacket are so warm and soft, if it was socially acceptable I would wear this all day everyday. So glad that Abbie made me try it on and buy it. Thanks Abbie for knowing what I wanted before I did!




Thanks for continuing to make this link up a success, now add some fashion posts and meet some new people!

The Blended Blog Gift Exchange

Back in January I joined The Blended Blog with Spread the Love Gift Exchange. I couldn't wait to participate. I got paired up with Connie. Unfortunately my gift still has not made it to her. I am hoping that at least the post office gets it back to me? I must have accidentally written down the wrong address? I'm really sad that Connie didn't get her gift. So sorry Connie! I promise that you will get something, even if it means I got out and get something else!



Connie's gift got to me in plenty of time and I just love what she got me! She got me this cute necklace. It is so fun to get random mail.



It reminds me of one of the first necklaces I bought when I decided a few years ago to start wearing jewelry.


Thank you Connie for the best necklace! It's going to get a lot of use. Now to go find what happened to your gift!

Now go check out what everyone else got over on The Blended Blog!

Friday Favorites #152

Hi Foxy Friends! I have today off from work, so I'm trying to get all the things done. Anyone else feel like you have 100 things you want to accomplish, but then the day of actually comes and you only get 3 half things done? That will probably be me...but I'll try at least! Anyway, let's get started:


In case you missed it this week:

Monday: $10 Target Haul
Tuesday: Day In The Life (Monday)
Wednesday: Floral Winter Dress
Thursday: Boxy Charm February Haul

Also did you know I have a Amazon shop? Yep, I have put all of my favorite Amazon purchases there, so if you want to see the things I love that are on Amazon, check it out!

This skirt is on there, and only $20!


I know where are knee deep in cold weather right now, but Target has their buy one get one 50% off of swim suits. Take it from someone who thought I have time and it will come back last year, it's not often they have this and it won't come back any time soon. At least it didn't last year. So get in on the deals now!

Here are my favorite one piece swim suits right now:

1 / 2 / 3  / 4 / 5 / 6 / 7 / 8 / 9 / 10   

I own #5 but in blue and I get SO many compliments on it every time I wear it. Plus as a Mama it makes you feel sexy without feeling like you are on Spring Break in your 20's with the see through parts.

I might have ordered #4, #7 and #8, plus I needed to get one more take advantage of the buy one get one 50% off right? So I also got this one, which somehow never made it on my list up there.

Here are my favorite two piece swim suits:



1 / 2 / 3 / 4 / 5



Life lately:  Baby Fox had a patriotic performance, the kids did such a great job, and were so dang cute!



Thursday evening Target run...everyone joined me this time. They liked to play hide and seek. Fun times.


Girls night, it was awesome catching up.


Friday I made this butternut squash lasagna, and it was fantastic. Look for the recipe coming soon.


And then the rest of the weekend I forgot to take pictures, oops!


For those of you that like to plan, here are are The Blended Blog questions for March 5th. Easy post to do, and you get to talk beauty. March Mondays are all about beauty.


Didn't Andrea do a great job with the graphic?

I loved Shelly's post from yesterday, 10 tips for having a relationship with your adult children. While I am definitely not in that stage of life, she had some great tips! I think the hardest for me is that poker face and not bailing them out every chance I get..and letting them suffer their consequences.

I saw this on a friends FB feed and, this is so me! I am horrible at directions! The reason I drive and Mr. navigates, I am a horrible navigator!

February Boxycharm Unboxing

Hi Foxy Friends it's Thursday and I have tomorrow off, woo hoo! I thought I would share my February Boxy Charm.



I have mixed feelings about this box. I don't feel like I got any ground breaking products. I love that we got the magnetic palette, but then they only gave gave us one blush to put it in it. It would have been nice if they had given us some other eye shadows or products to put in it.

I'm thinking I'm going to give Boxycharm another 3 months and if I don't like it, then I'm going to take a break. Maybe it's in a slump because it's the end of Winter, and not quite Spring? Let's hope that is the deal, because I really liked my first two boxes.

Hope you all are having a great week!

Winter Floral Dress

Hi Foxy Friends! After taking a week off, I'm back with another outfit. This time I decided to style a dress, and to make it a little more "winter" appropriate, I added some OTK boots. Which I am completely obsessed with and love!

I am loving this dress, it is a little shorter than I would normally wear, but it's perfect for a girls night out or a date night. It's the perfect little dress for under $30!

Day In The Life

Last year I sporadically linked up with Kristin for her Daily Dime, and I thought I would really try to do it this year and be more consistent.  So here we go, I picked yesterday to document, mostly because I forgot I was doing this post and I happened to work from home yesterday, so I thought, hey I've never documented that before. So here we go.

The reason I was working from home was because I had a doctors appointment and Mr. had the day off for Presidents Day (I did not), so this is a doubly weird day for us.

I wanted to get up at 6...but being sick I needed the extra sleep.


The view from my bedroom "office" aka a card table set up in our sitting area.


I loved hearing the kids help out with chores, they knocked on the door and needed to come get the laundry...team work down the stairs.


Lunch with Mr., I was working, so I threw on some clothes, no make barely brushed hair...


We had to stop and get gas. Please ignore those bags under the eyes, hence why I need concealer, haha.


Talked to my cousin while driving to my allergy appointment, the conversation lasted 15 minutes.


When I got to the doctors...this is the view of the walk...oops the power just went out...waiting 30 minutes for them to reschedule...boo! Now I have to come back and I was hoping to get some better meds for my sinus stuff. It was a really creepy walk.


I worked a bit more then headed to gymnastics for Mini Fox and Trampoline class for Baby Fox.


Some friends were driving through and needed a break from the traffic before heading home, I grabbed some Chick-Fil-A  and then the boys (yep including Mr.) got in a Nerf war, while the mommy's talked and watched. The girls were playing dolls else where.


To end the night this guy needed some surgery on his wing, so I stitched him up.


Now I need to go print off a picture of Shaun White for Baby Fox's report and then shower and bed. So that is a random Monday around these parts. Really random since a friend and two of her four kids came over. But really nice to see them, they live about 125 miles north of us, so we don't get to see them all too often.

Join in next month! I think she's going live March 14th.

$10 Target Haul: February Edition

Happy Monday Foxy Friends! I'm back with the $10 Target Haul link up! It's fun to go into Target and try to find what you can get for $10. I found mostly Valentine's Day things, so even though V-Day was last week, let's roll with it.




I am obsessed with Swedish Fish, and the little ones taste better than the bigger ones. They came out with littl heart shaped ones, and they taste like the little ones...SO dang good. I tried to go back to Target on February 15th, to get the left overs, but there were none...actually all of the Valentine's Day stuff was cleaned up already and the shelves were complete empty...heart breaking...okay, not really but I was super disappointed.

I haven't had the energy to decorate, and I don't have many Valentine's Day things, so I thought the little banner would be cute. Then  Mini Fox and a friend did the rest of the decorating. It's a hodge podge, but they made most of it, and I love it.


Mini Fox painted the background of that sign, and then a friend did the saying because they both love that movie...points to anyone who knows the movie!


I was going to use the cupcake stuff for a treat for Mini Fox's preschool, but they said no treats, then I was going to do fruit cups...but that never happened. So I guess I'll be ready for next year.

So what did you get for $10? Link up down below!
