Heyyyyyyyy! Happy Friday!
I’m home from Arizona and so glad to be reunited with my boys. I missed them so much! I even creeped into Quinn’s bedroom last night just to see him sleep. What a sweet boy. I just wanted to pick him up and give him the biggest hug ever! Anyway, I feel like I haven’t chatted with you guys in ages, so I put together a fun Friday post with lots to talk about! I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
Nikki’s Pumpkin Spiced Donut Coconut Butter. Pumpkin spice + donut = incredible. It’s easily my favorite seasonal flavor. And hooray for ALLTHINGSPUMPKIN! Do you love pumpkin as much as I do or are you already over it?
How do we feel about sexy, shaggy bangs? Apparently, it’s a new hair trend? I actually sort of like how bangs look, so maybe I’ll jump on board? Undecided.
