Friday Favorites June 21, 2024

June 21, 2024

This is the last Friday of the school year! The week has been absolute madness between school events and sports. Here's some of the favorites from this crazy week...

1. Yankee Game: On Tuesday night we took the train to the Yankee game with a bunch of friends from town. The Yankees were playing the Orioles, Brian's favorite team. The Yankees victory was extra sweet because we got to rub it in!

Most of these kids have been going to games together since they were little!

This picture is everything. LOVE my boys!

2. Boundless Adventures: On Wednesday we had off from school for Juneteenth. Jack and I went to this place called Boundless Adventures with two of his friends and their moms (who are also good friends of mine). Boundless Adventures is an outdoor climbing facility with a ropes course and ziplines. When I made the plans, I thought the boys were going to play and the moms would hang. Wrong! I didn't realize that we were doing it too! I'm not a fan of heights so this was definitely out of my comfort zone. I pushed myself and I'm so glad I did it!

3. American Revolution Museum: This week Jack's class hosted an American Revolution Museum where they displayed their projects. Each student studied a key person from the American Revolution and had to dress up like them. Here is Jack as Thomas Jefferson! I should mention that we're having a major heatwave this week and the poor kid had to wear this velvet costume!

4. New Rug by Becki Owens: I replaced our rug in the TV/family room with this one by Becki Owens that I purchased it on Amazon. The current prices is almost $300 more than I paid. I think the price fluctuates so if you're interested I'd monitor the price before purchasing. Becki Owens is a interior designer and I'm obsessed with her style. You can check out her blog here.

So much lighter and brighter now (rug here)!

This is a pic of the old rug from Pottery Barn. I still love it and moved it up to Brian's office.

5. Fells Naptha: Baseball mamas, you need this soap! It's magic with the baseball pants. I wet the bar and scrub the stains, let them sit for a bit and then wash as usual. I buy it on Amazon.

TGIF! Have a great weekend!

It has been a BUSY but fun couple of weeks around here. Today is my last day of work for awhile and I'm hoping to enjoy some down time as we head into August. I have lots of favorites to share this Friday start with... 1. ENGLISH FACTORY DRESSES: My friend has this dress and it's adorable on her. I had my eye on it for awhile and pulled the trigger when it went sale. I can't wait to wear it this weekend! Sunni Color Block Dress 2. BASEBALL LIFESTYLE : My son Jack is very into this Baseball Lifestyle 101 brand. It's all the rage with the baseball players. He typically wears hand me downs so I treated him to these shorts in blue and pink and the short sleeve hoodie. Baseball Shorts 3. CHERRIES: My obsession with cherries continues. I picked up this straw bag at a local boutique, a cute tank at Old Navy, and some fun items at Five Below. Old Navy Cherry Tank ...

August 22, 2025 1. GIRL TIME: I spent a few days in the Hamptons with my mom this week. Brian and the kids stayed home since sports have already kicked off. Even though Mom lives with us now, we haven’t had much one-on-one time, so it was really nice to catch up. My friend Carrie was also out there solo, so we squeezed in lots of shopping! Such a nice little break before the craziness starts next week. 2. OOFOS flip flops: One of my neighbors has these and swears by them. I bought them in black and have to admit, they are VERY comfortable. I expect to be wearing these to lost of games in the fall. Oofos Original Sandal 3. NEW RUGS: Carrie and I were both on the hunt for rugs and I ended up finding this beautiful blue one at HomeSense. The navy, red, and white rug is from Pottery Barn, and I scored it for an amazing deal on Facebook Marketplace! 3. TUCKERNUCK SAMPLE SALE: The semi-annual Tuckernuck sample sale is live and it's sooooo good. There were so many pieces I loved but I...

October 24, 2025 1. GIRL TIME: My college bestie and I took our daughters to the Shawn Mendez concert at Forest Hill Stadium. It was a beautiful night for an outdoor concert and we had a blast! I love that we have daughters the same age and they get along so well. 2. LULUS: Lulus is my go-to spot for dresses. They always have such a great selection at reasonable prices. I usually order a few different styles and sizes to try on, then just keep my favorites. I have two events coming up in November and December, and these two dresses are definite keepers! Loira Midi Dress Celebration Time Navy Dress 3. LOFT: I had some time to kill before the dentist so I popped into Loft. I left with this denim dress...the material is a nice heavier weight and I think it will be super cute with boots. I also got 3 sweaters. Everything is on sale and they offer and additional teacher discount. Denim Dress Fringe Sweater Floral Sweater Spacedye Sweater 4. SCHOOL PICTURES : We just got our sc...
