Project 52, Week 4 layout
On Monday I shared our weekend of course, which mostly consisted of all the snuggles.
See my FAVE monthly link-up, What’s up Wednesday here! Details of what happened in January around here.
I like to change my phone wallpaper every month, sometimes I’ll go with a theme for the month and other times it will just be something encouraging that I like. It is one of my FAVORITE things on the first of the month to change up! For January I wanted to start off the year strong and chose different images for my home screen & lock screen.
I always check Sarah Hearts first, her free wallpapers are my FAVE and usually the ones I end up picking each month. This February one though might be my FAVORITE ever!!! SO CUTE! What is usually the wallpaper on your phone? Do you change it up often?
I ordered this pillow on Zulily earlier this week and was SO EXCITED that it arrived already! I have a few similar style pillows so of course I had to add this one to our collection too. Most all the beagle things we see and/or buy usually have coloring that look more like Hank so I was happy to find this one that looked more like Hal 🙂 And this photo is real life around these parts, wouldn’t have it any other way!
I’ve shared before about my subscription with Petit Vour in which I receive cruelty free beauty products to try out for $15/month. My Mom is also subscribed to this box, the January box included this Cinnamon Lip Plumper and a favorite moment of mine was talking to her about using it. She scooped out a big portion and slathered it ALL OVER her lips, then a few seconds later it started to burn and she went into panic mode…LOL, she ended up throwing the product away! I quite like the lip plumper but yes, it does burn for about 60 seconds, which in a weird way I guess I like haha! And I can’t believe she straight up threw it away!!! I mean me or my sister would have used it!?!?
Last night my husband went karting after work with co-workers, so I was productive and made Black Bean Soup & Mexican Gumbo. I already feel like I’m winning, it’s Friday and I know I don’t have to worry about making dinner!!!
I was checking out my Goodreads, thinking ahead to what books I might want to read next in case I need to place holds at my library and I was just SO HAPPY to see this update on my 2018 goal. I don’t think I’ll probably be this far ahead all year but January was a good month and I am feeling real good about meeting my bigger goal this year!
Lastly, when my husband got home from karting last night after work he was bringing in a few groceries I had asked him to pick up and he also came home with flowers! Grocery store flowers will always be my FAVES, it always feels so special to know that as he was picking it groceries he thought of me and doing something sweet <3
So sweet about the flowers! I love how your dogs love the pillow! My phone background inside has been the same forever – teal and white chevron- and the lock screen is a photo I took. I only changed it from another photo when I got super bored of the old one!
Thanks Dara! Yes, the dogs also have to check everything new and they think everything we get is for them 😉
Those flowers are very pretty!!!
Thanks Julie! 🙂
I love Goodreads. I only joined it a few months ago, but it’s now my favorite social media platform.
The Black Bean Soup and Mexican Gumbo you made both look delicious!
Ugh, yes so awesome, Goodreads is definitely a favorite of mine too! Thanks for stopping by Angela 🙂
You are busy, busy, busy! Bet your pups don’t want to be outside this evening. Too much snow.
Hope you and Ronald have a great week, stay warm.
Yes too cold & too much snow – they dislike it because it means no walks! Thanks Judy, same to you 🙂
That gumbo looks SO GOOD- yum!
We’re still eating the leftovers this week, mmmmm! 😉
