Hi friends! Happy Friday! How was the week? I hope you had a wonderful one. Ours kind of a blur. P went down with the nasty bug right after Liv, so we’ve been home while they’ve rested and recovered. I’ve made lots of soup, refilled water bottles and humidifiers frequently, snuggled and watched many movies, and taken a million vitamins.

I hope that you have a healthy and restful weekend ahead! A huge highlight of the weekend will be my birthday celebration with some of my best friends; I’ve been looking forward to it for months, and it sounds like we could all use a little relaxation right now, especially before the holiday chaos.

(The best birthday cake from my friend Ashley at Lovin’ Spoonfuls. Gluten-free funfetti with chocolate frosting. She’s made my birthday cake for years!)

It’s time for the weekly Friday Faves party. This is where I share some of my favorite finds from the week and around the web. I always love to hear about your faves, too, so please shout out something you’re loving in the comments section below.

11.15 Friday Faves

Fashion + beauty + random:

Movies with Liv. We’ve watched so many movies together over the past week. including My Best Friend’s Wedding (she gave it an 8/10), Sixteen Candles (she said the whole movie was kind of chaotic, but liked it), Santa Clause, and Hot Frosty.

I have to say, I give Hot Frosty a solid 9/10 for Christmas movies. You just have to expect that it’s going to be cheezy fluff, buckle up, and enjoy the ride. We all liked it, just don’t expect a cinematic masterpiece.

Hi friends! Happy Friday! How was the week? I hope you had a wonderful one. After all of the excitment of the past few weeks, poor Liv is sick so we’re here chilling and taking it easy. I’m looking to a low-key weekend ahead, tackling laundry mountain and chores after our trips, and teaching a barre class. I’d love to hear what you’re up to!

A huge highlight of this past weekend was the Pilot’s Change of Command ceremony. He’s been a commander for three years, and I’m incredibly proud of him for his leadership, dedication, and just the man that he is. At the same time, I’m glad it’s over. 😉

I feel like I’ve been struggling to do the bare minimum in life and business for years. When we moved back to Tucson, he immediately deployed, then when he came home, he was hired by the airlines, traveling constantly, and then became commander. I feel like we can all take a deep breath. I’m also feeling excited to have my buddy around more often, and to finally have some extra bandwidth on the personal and professional front.

Hi friends! Happy Friday! What are you up to this weekend? We’re heading out on a Disney cruise with the crew! I’ll definitely report back with the adventures but we’re going straight from Orlando fun to the cruise ship. This is Disney cruise #5 (our last one is here) and we’re definitely not stopping anytime soon.

I also had an amaaazing time at the Reimagining Health Summit. I’ll have a full recap up next week, but it was so amazing to meet Dr. Cabral and members of the EquiLife team, connect with fellow IHPs, learn from the incredible speakers, and also spend some time with my business bestie Giselle.

Hi friends! Happy Friday! What’s going on this weekend? We have a new baby in the family! I’m so so excited for Trevor and Danielle, and of course, can’t wait to get those baby meals going. Other than baby excitement, we have a lot going on this weekend. Liv is getting her solo choreography, P has a basketball game, it’s fall festival, Liv and I have a National Charity League event, aaaand we’re meeting up at the movies with some friends. I’m hoping we can sneak in Halloween decorations, too! I’d love to hear what you’re up to.

SO pumped to announce the winner of our September giveaway. She’s getting a whole boatload of wellness goodies 🙂 Congrats to Jamie J.! I’ll be reaching out with the details on how to claim your prize.

Hi friends! Happy Friday! What’s going on this weekend? P has some basketball games and then the girls and I are off to Phoenix for dance. (The Pilot has a huge work event so that’s his life lately.) It’s going to be a busy one, but I really look forward to the weekends and love watching the girls shine in their respective activities.

I’m also excited to get out fall decorations! I was tempted to buy all the gourds at Whole Foods, until I remembered that the javelinas love to eat them 😉

Here’s a pic of the comfy Amazon set I’m loving lately.

It’s not too thin and the fabric is light and cozy. Definitely decent quality for the price.

I also ordered this set – can’t wait to wear it with Chelsea boots – but it won’t be here until the end of September.

Why are Somerset dresses the BEST?

If you’ve been needing a Vitamin C serum, here is an excellent option.

I’m trying to get set up for the holidays now so it’s not such a scramble. Ordered this advent calender for P if you’re looking for one!

Check out this week’s podcast episode about parasites. It was an eye-opening one for me and I learned a lot.

Speaking of parasites, I ordered this Rogers Hood Parafy kit to try. She’s gone viral on Instagram and TikTok (she’s the “Worm Queen.” You’re welcome if you decide to go down a rabbit hole lol) and I wanted to see what the hype is about.  This is an Read more
