simply loving

i have had better weeks in life … but i am going to stay positive, keep praying, and remember that we all have our health. (minus the fact that parks and i already have ‘the pre-school plague’) but… we will be better hopefully soon. how was your week?

+ yoga poses to ground yourself

+ this top from my shop 

+ this post about friendship  

+ my new business cards for my blog + shop arrived (i am in love with the texture and rounded corners) i really wanted a clean, simple look and i really love the way they turned out. also, do you all use the ‘honey‘ app on your devices? it automatically goes through every code on the internet and applies them to your order. (i saved over $19 on these and papa john’s- almost always 25% off) because when you have days like yesterday, your husband brings home wine and flowers- and you order pizza (and brownies). 

+ are you friends with your parents?

+ this book

+ our church is beginning a series right now with the enneagram institute and it’s so interesting. here is the excerpt about our new series. our church is compassionate, it’s welcoming, it’s inspiring, it’s creative… it’s home. my husband is #9, the peacemaker (just like we predicted last week when they went through each one) … i hope to take the test this weekend but i think it would be interesting for family members + friends to take it as well; to help us understand one another a little bit better- how we perceive the world, the way we tick- our strengths and our weaknesses- an awareness of how we can work together, understand, and relate to one another and to God in a better way. have you taken this personality test? if so, i would love to hear what you are. i am 95% sure i know what one i am… but we will see. 

+ a beautiful mess’ new shop, oui fresh… esp. the essential oils. i have my eye on the fir and rose. i am going to be saving up for these two… rumor has it that these two + the grapefruit smells just like anthro! essential oils- i am all about you. i also love this coffee mug. 

+ velvet.

+ this robe / kimono

this is his newest ninja trick at target… straped in and all. we were shopping for my niece’s 5th birthday- i let him pick between two things and we went with parks’ favorite.

i can’t with the girl’s ‘cat and jack’ line. i just can’t.
