Saturday Suggestions

 


Happy Saturday, friends! Hope you all are having a great day. Ryan and I just watched You’ve Got Mail (again) last night. I love that movie so much!! Although I do think it was the first time we both realized how many things I do/say from that script! Anyway…it was so good…much like I hope your day will be today!

ONE. 

I listened to a podcast this week that offered some helpful insights on how God uses the seasons of our lives to prepare us for what He has in our future. The guest is easy to listen to, and I felt so much commonality with her as she talked about seasons of waiting in her own life. If you’re waiting and praying for something (or if you know someone else who is) this is a half hour well-spent! Lots of great info in here!

TWO. 

Apparently I am quite in a learning mode this week, because I also signed up for the free herb garden course on this site and have been loving the short modules of learning. I intend, throughout this winter, to learn more about gardening practices so I can do an even better job next year than I did this year! I am learning so much about herbs with this one and thought I would share it with you in case you want to learn, too! (Scroll down the page to see the herb garden course.) The instructor is relatable and fun!

THREE.

Lots of great tree topper ideas here…and I think the first one is my favorite. Eucalyptus! I never would have thought of it! I love it so much and think I might incorporate it into one of our trees this year!

FOUR. 

This home has some SUPER cute elements in it. Parts of it remind me of our style – with the industrial and farmhouse touches. I am still not able to cross over into the world of wallpaper. Parts of me really want to like it, and then I remember all those hours I spent trying to soak and scrape border at our Kokomo home, and I get the shivers all over again. (And not in a good way.) But aside from that, I love so much of this house!

FIVE. 

Praying specific Scriptures over your friends…what a gift! Here is a guide to help you know how to pray for your friends in intentional ways. I love this so much!

SIX. 


Here are some cute Thanksgiving outfit ideas. What route do you go for Thanksgiving? Comfy and casual, festive and nice, or dressy chic? I usually go for festive and nice!

The nice thing about wallpaper these days is that people usually only do one accent wall. That’s a lot less to take down later!

My friend and her sister and nieces are getting matching shirts for Thanksgiving. They are Friends TV show fans, so they are getting shirts with the turkey wearing sunglasses.

Have a great weekend!

Tracy - The accent walls are the one thing that make me even pause to consider! (Until the memories invade.) Some of them that I've seen really have looked nice! I love the shirt idea!! I remembered AFTER posting this that Ryan and I have matching shirts. His says "She's my Sweet Potato" and mine says "I Yam." We have worn them the last two Thanksgivings, so I am not sure if we're taking a break from them this year or not. But the turkey and sunglasses shirt is genius!

Glad I know how to dress this year!
