Friday Favorites

Happy Friday! Today I'm linking up with Andrea for Friday Favorites. 

Has EVERYONE been watching the Marie Kondo show on Netflix or is it just me?? It is making me go through our house purging things like crazy and either selling them on Facebook or donating them. I did not realize how much stuff we had until I started going through it... and yikes. But the silver lining is I've made over $100 selling some of our "junk", woohoo! #MoreMoneyForClothes #DoesThatDefeatThePurpose? #Maybe

My biggest fans after cheering me on during the Charlotte Half Marathon in November 2018.

Mediterranean Diet: Salmon Cakes and Roasted Brussel Sprouts

Last week I shared with you that we were going to start implementing the Mediterranean Diet in our house. So far we are finding this to be really easy and have enjoyed trying out some new recipes. Devin has been making a less healthy version of these salmon cakes for years, so I asked him to try to find a more "Mediterranean Diet" type way of making them. Luckily he was up to the challenge and the only effort I had to put into this was making the brussel sprouts and being the official taste tester.  #mykindofmeal

Friday Favorites: Funny Mom Memes

Today's post of funny mom memes is inspired by a group of women who I could not live without: my mom friends, otherwise known as "The Mama Llamas". Every mom needs that group of girlfriends who understands why you might show up to the girl's night with poop on your clothes and not judge you for it. Every mom needs that group of women who you can text at an ungodly hour that your toddler has a rash and should you call the pediatrician?! They'll calmly (and immediately, because God knows they're up too) remind you that their child had the same thing a few months ago and it'll all be okay. And most importantly, every mom needs that group of women who can help you to see the humor in the many stressful situations that come from being a mom. Motherhood is without a doubt the biggest blessing in my life, but that doesn't mean that every single second of it is sunshine and rainbows.
