FRIDAY FAVORITES

Hello friends and welcome to another edition of Friday Favorites! 

Let's kick it off with an "Oooooo y'all." 😂🤪😂 I'm so glad it's Friday. This week started off a little chaotic for me. Craig left last Saturday to head to Milwaukee to play in Donald Driver's annual charity softball game and golf tournament. (Craig and Donald were teammates when they were with the Packers.) But he didn't get home until Tuesday and of course, Monday just happened to be the day that we had everything. 🤪 Football practice plus back-to-back baseball games with one of the games overlapping football. It was "go go go" from the time they got off the bus at 4:50 (20 minutes late because of some crazy bus drama because of course, it had to happen that day...) until we got home at 10:30.

I won't bore you with all the details but I'll just say it takes a village, and I was so thankful for my village on Monday! We basically had a swift kick to the backside into our Fall schedule!

Anyway...

I have a quick list of Favorites for you today though so let's get to it!


I'm starting with random pictures from the week. Look at that sweet pup. He's thankful I can work from my phone from anywhere thanks to my little side gig with Modere. 


I spent the morning cuddling with my sweet Chuck and answering customer questions, helping people get the best deal (I'm fab at that by the way, in case you ever need help with your order), and I've been working with 3 new girls on my Modere team to get them started on their own big journies. All from my cozy spot on the couch with my dog. Best. Job. Ever.

Does that sound cheesy and cliche? haha Sorry. But I don't know how else to say it. They are a couple weeks in and already blowing me away. People WIN HERE. I don't know how else to say it. Why? Because our products are flipping AWESOME. If they sold them at Target, they'd be out of stock all.the.time. Well, either that, or you wouldn't know how good they are because they wouldn't be marketed the way they are...which is why they chose the social marketer route. 

Wanna get even more cliche? Message me if you want to get started yourself or just want to look into it. I can send you a quick 3 minutes video just to give you an overview. Maybe it's for you. Maybe it's not. Maybe it's exactly what you've been praying for. Maybe you'll look at it and be like "Not for me." 🤷‍♀️

 Either way. Quit waiting if you've been interested. Nothing good comes from waiting. 😉 It'll either work or it won't. You'll never know until you try. Honestly, if there is even one of you out there that is reading this and thinking, "I need this. I need a/another stream of income. I need something that I can do from home and put as much or as little effort into as I want." 

Ok, enough of that before I lose half of you. 😂

Quick pic of my big 8th grader on the biggest field in the ballpark for the first time! I remember when we first started coming to this ballpark for games and looking at this field thinking "Wow, someday my boys will be playing on the big boy field...". And now we're here. It's crazy.


We started here...


😭😭😭😭

We're also here. 😂


This was 5 minutes after he ate dinner. "Mom, I'm hungry. Can I have some popcorn?" #teenagers

And finally, I mentioned Craig was gone for the Donald Driver Foundation charity softball game and golf tournament this weekend. I got sent this picture from him at the game and thought it was so cute.


It's always fun for him to get to go back to those days in the NFL and he still thinks it's awesome when people remember him and want their picture taken with him even though he was just a backup for a few years during the Brett Favre years. Green Bay is a small-town team. The fans are the best. (#fightme 😂) And they remember everything. I feel more at home there than I do anywhere else in this country other than my current and past hometowns and my college town. Green Bay is small and sweet and a little bit boring when you're 23 (just FYI) but I would never trade those years for anything.

(2019)

We've been waiting to take the boys to their first Packers game at Lambeau but Covid has messed up everything so we've still got that coming at some point. I can't wait to show them all of it! I don't think they even fully understand how cool their dad used to be. 😂

I have to share this sale because SO MANY OF YOU are Colleen Rothschild fans (as am I). Take $25 off your purchase of $100 or more! So basically, grab 2 products and get $25 off! That's a huge discount!


I have quite the collection.


Must-haves?? The Radiant Cleansing Balm, 1 million percent. (I'm a Jumbo Size Girl. Lasts me about 6 months.)

Retinol Supreme Night Oil: Feels amazing on your skin at night. Layer a great moisturizer over it. I love the Cellproof moisturizer so much. But the CR Extreme Recovery Cream is a little lighter and fluffier as opposed to thick and creamy if that's what you're looking for. 

I love alllll these products though. Just go for it if you see something you like. And don't forget that the Discovery Kit is a really really great way to start and see what you may like before you commit to a full-size product! 

Use the code HOT25, ladies!! Ends August 29th!


I posted this on IG the other day and I had so many responses. Hahahaha! Who knew!?! It is too funny and it really did take me a minute to get it. 😂😂😂




I've probably posted this before but I love me some lil smokies and sugar-free BBQ sauce! I pair it with roasted okra and mashed cauliflower and it's yummy!


I also tried a new sheet pan dinner this week! I made 2 pans for me, Craig and Mason (Matthew won't eat stuff like this) and it was SO GOOD!!! I followed this recipe but added in a red onion with the broccoli.



Big Brother fans!!! Who are we loving?! I've got to admit, I'm an Xavier fan! (Total hottie and super smart. Plus he's playing a great social game.)  I also loved Derek X so I'm kind of hoping he'll return at some point.  Other than that, it's been RHOBH, RHONY, and the news this week. When do all the good shows come back?! I'm BORED. 9-1-1, I miss you! Love that show.
I got a few new things in this week that I'm loving!

For starters, this Airplane Mode sweatshirt is going to come in handy since I'm traveling a few times this fall! I'm wearing a medium and I'm pretty sure it sold out in about 60 minutes once it was released. You can check it here but there are also similar ones here.


I also got these wedge sneakers in this week! I sized up a half size but honestly think that with thin socks, I'd have been fine in my normal size. Either one works though! 


And I'm LOVING this pretty embroidered top!! I'm wearing a small. (Shipping is fast and FREE!)

The jeans are sold out at the moment too but you can find similar ones here.


While you're over there shopping, be sure to hit up the sale items because they all have an additional 25% off right now through Saturday! The extra discount will show up in your cart.


My shop is back!! Here are a few pics of things that have gone out lately!



Tumblers with rainbow vinyl HERE

My own pretty black and gold confetti tumbler HERE with my favorite clean energy HERE. (Fruit punch is the best! $10 off your first order too!) 


My sweet friend sent me this picture! 😂


You can find the skinny can coolers here and the standard size can coolers here

Shop the whole shop here!


I got 2 new coffee mugs this week that were so cute they deserved a mention.



Both can be found HERE. Aren't they cute?!



That's it for today, friends! Come find me over on Instagram and all you collagen girls, keep an eye out for a new, super quick promo coming on the 30th!! 

Before I go, I have to mention the brave men and women who lost their lives yesterday in Afghanistan. My heart is breaking for those families and loved ones. This whole thing is an absolute mess and that is not a political statement because people on both sides of the aisle agree. I pray for our leaders, our troops, the innocent people--men, women and CHILDREN who are in the line of fire--and anyone else who is affected personally by this situation. I pray for PEACE, comfort, wisdom, humility, grace, and protection...I pray for our country as a whole. Right when I think we are more divided than ever, something like this happens and surprisingly, it seems to bring some closer together. Whatever "side" you're on, I pray that you remember the brave souls who gave their lives for others.


Lift up someone today, friends.

xoxo
