Friday Favorites # 76

Happy Friday Foxy Friends! Yay for long weekends, this is my off Friday, and then we have Monday off and I decided to take Tuesday off, because we won't be get getting home till late on Monday night and no way I am waking up at 4:30am to go to work! Yikes...so why not take the day off? So 5 days off, here I come! :)


In case you missed it on the blog this week:


Thursday: June in Numbers


We are all about the swim lessons over here, trying to get Mini Fox pool safe and Baby Fox is learning all of the strokes. I'm so proud of both of them and how much they have accomplished!




This deserves a post of it's own...So that wedding we went to on Saturday. It was for a policeman, so naturally there were all of his policeman buddies, so what did they do? They created a donut bar. Seriously, how awesome is this? His sister made the donut holders and they even went donut shopping for the best donuts around town. I was so full from dinner that I couldn't eat another bite, BUT...we took some home for the kids. I almost stole them from the kids they were that good.  I wish I had taken more, darn!


Other wedding photos. I just thought this was the cutest shot of the flower girl looking at the bride and all of the bridesmaids, so darn cute!


Just as the bride and groom were walking down the isle, these geese flew over head in a way that it seemed like it was planned. Most likely they were just scared when we all started to clap and cheer, but it was perfect.


How gorgeous is the isle?


They are just the sweetest couple and I hope they have many, many years of happiness together!


Some other randoms from the week:

We went to visit my cousin and her baby and here he is Mr. the baby hog...he snatched up the chance to hold a sleeping baby. He told me...if she's still sleeping when we need to go to the party, I will take Uber there, I am not giving her up...hehe. Luckily she woke up just as we needed to leave.


Just cause...those eyelashes...


Oh yea and I got her for 2 seconds before we left...I forget how tiny they are!


I tried to do this to my hair for Sunday, but turns out it's SUPER hard to do on yourself, so I convinced my little cousin...actually I didn't have to convince her at all, I just said hey want me to do something cool to your hair? She practically jumped in my lap. So cool right? Wish it had worked out on my hair, instead it ended up in a ponytail and I come down stairs and Mr. says...it took you 30 minutes to put your hair in a ponytail,  haha.


With Mini Fox having swim lessons Monday-Friday it leaves little time to workout after work. But Mr. was able to come on this day so I got a few squats, lunges and burpees in while we were waiting for her turn. Girls gotta, do what a girls gotta do right? Wednesday I actually got to go to the gym while Mr. took the kids to swim class, was so happy to workout.


And what is quickly becoming our Tuesday tradition, Mr. has been gone the last two Tuesdays, and we have to drive past In and Out to get home...We sent this picture to Mr. to show him what he was missing.

I just love Mini Fox holding up her hamburger in back there

As always some Videos that I've been enjoying this week.

Just get prepared for the next 2 months for me to be obsessed over the Olympics. This routine, so perfect, we are going to kill it at the Olympics, Go TEAM USA!


This girl, wow. She gives me chills.



This is pretty cool too, I'm thinking, how many takes did they have to do to get those clapping hands right, remember doing that as a kid? How did you really go for...maybe 30 seconds before messing up? They went for 4 minutes!

June In Numbers


Another month gone and with that comes what my month looks like in numbers, thanks Deena for always hosting such a great link up! So here it goes.




4 - days spent with friends at the lake


1 - Cabin

7 - Children at said cabin


6 - Adults, it was a blast!

Because what would a group shot with these crazy kids be without Zombie picture?

1 - 1/2 Super Hero birthday thrown



6,000 - The amount of frosting flowers I did (okay probably an exaggeration, but it did feel like it.)



15 - The number of swimming lessons I took either Mini Fox or Baby Fox to


First lesson of the season, and his first time being with 3 other kids, we had been doing semi-private lessons. It was great to know that a) he was able to keep up with the other kids b) I get to save a bunch of money. Woo hoo!


The coach wanted to move everyone up to the next level in this class, but everyone had to pass certain tests, so he was teaching Baby Fox how to dolphin kick so he could move up the class, since everyone else already knew it. I was wondering why he was just concentrating on Baby Fox when they were doing this. Back.....


Forward....


And of course he rocked it and helped moved up the entire class, so proud of him!



3 - The number of birthday parties we went to (one of them being the one we hosted)




2400 - The amount of miles I drove

1 - Wedding attended, was so sad that we never got a picture with the bride and groom, boo!


6.5 - The number of months I went without a hair cut, it felt so good to finally get it cut!

4 - The number of inches he cut off


4 - The number of allergy shots I got...woo hoo! It was going to be 0 but they wanted me to come in twice this week, darn!

Have a great weekend! I'm off for the next 5 days, woo hoo! Mr. and I are both taking ditching work Tuesday and we're going to make a whole day of it, movies, lunch and shopping. Yay!

Create 28 Week 4 and Hair Challenge Week 26

Hello Foxy Fashion Friends! Today we're back at it with another week of Create 28. Go check out this weeks recap on The Blended Blog, everyone did such a fabulous job this week!

Since the 4th is right around the corner I decided to style a 4th of July outfit. Something fun and flirty. I got this from Old Navy a couple of years ago.






I just love this easy hair style, fun and perfect for a day of BBQ'ing and celebrating with friends and family.






This week was a little weak on the hair styles, just wasn't feeling it, I tried something on Sunday, but turns out I can't do it on myself...disappointing.

Last Wednesday I did my favorite half top knot.



Saturday morning I got my hair cut, it's been over 6 months and I was in desperate need!


He ended up taking off 4 inches, I love getting my hair cut, doesn't it just feel great?


That night I went to the wedding and wanted it all up. I love fun updos. I finally got to wear this outfit that I have shown you but have yet to wear out in public. I have been saving it for this wedding we went to this weekend.


In case you wanted to know, I lasted about 45 minutes in those shoes...


I know this is the last week of create 28 and you're probably wondering what is happening next for the link up? Well worry no more! The Blended Blog has come to save your summer wardrobe and make it fun! Here's the deal, take one thing from each category and create and outfit with it, it's that simple. How fun is that?


I'm so excited to start playing around with my closet. I hope you link up your posts and/or Instagram! Now for the last week of Create 28 link up. See you all next week with a fun inspiring outfit!
