Happy Valentine’s Day!!!

What better day to share a fun Things I’m Loving Friday post than Valentine’s Day!?

Ryan and I will be doing our annual Valentine’s Day Mission and I’m excited!

I hope you have fun Valentine’s Day plans this evening whether they be a hot date, a cozy night in, a wine night with your best friends or anything else. And please know that you are all very loved and appreciated by me!

Now for the fun stuff…

Things I’m Loving Friday

Brookstone Mini iPhone Speaker



This little speaker is powerful! I bought it on sale through RueLaLa about a month ago because I knew I wanted to have an easy, portable speaker to connect to my iPhone so I could play Pandora during my sister’s bridal shower. This speaker had no problem playing music loud enough to fill the large room during Leslie’s shower and I’ve been using it to play music in our kitchen or in the bathroom while I am getting ready in the morning. It’s fabulous!

Target Dresses



I stopped by Target after work on Tuesday because I wanted to buy this book and I figured they would have it. (No such luck.) Well, as I’m sure many of you will agree, it is impossible to leave Target without buying all the things. Since the books section of Target is intelligently located at the back of the store, I had to pass the clothing section and before I knew it, I was in the dressing room trying on a bunch of different dresses. There are SO many cute dresses at Target right now and I left with this long-sleeve lace one (in blue) which I think may end up being the dress I wear for my sister and Ross’ rehearsal dinner. (It looks dressier in person.) I also tried on this dress (in mint green) because I thought it would look fabulous with wedges and might be a good Easter dress, but it didn’t look right on me.

(P.S. Did you know Target makes bridesmaid dresses!? I just found them online when I was looking for the link to the dress I bought. This one reminds me a lot of the J.Crew bridesmaid dress I wore for my friend Michaela’s wedding!)

And speaking of dresses…

Leslie and Ross’ Flower Girl’s Dress



This morning my sister texted me a picture of the dress her flower girl will be wearing at her wedding on March 8 and my heart exploded. So adorable! My fellow bridesmaids and I will be wearing long peach dresses and I love how the flower girl’s dress incorporates peach and lace. Ava will look precious!

Downton Abbey

Thank you, PBS, for putting full episodes of this fabulous show online. I’ve been keeping up with this season since it debuted in January and while I thought the first few episodes were a little slow, it has really picked up steam again! So glad the Dowager Countess is as sassy as ever. This show is still a favorite of mine, for sure!

Fresh Market Chocolate Raspberry Kiss Coffee

The Fresh Market knows what they’re doing when they provide free samples of their seasonal coffee flavors. I always try the latest flavor whenever I shop there and the sample of the chocolate raspberry kiss coffee surprised me! I typically don’t love chocolate and raspberry flavors together, but this is a definite exception. I brewed myself a cup for breakfast this morning and loved every festive sip!
