Hiiii! Happy Friday! What are you up to this weekend? We have a family dinner, Liv and I have a volunteer event for NCL, and I\u2019m subbing a barre class. I hope you have a lovely and relaxing weekend ahead!<\/p>\n

Some pics from lately:<\/p>\n

Lola in the dryer\u2026.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

(Whenever I do laundry, she runs into the laundry room to hunt for more socks to eat. She\u2019s eaten two.. that we know of. So, I\u2019ve been watching her like even more of a hawk than usual. This dog, I tell ya.)<\/p>\n

A javi sighting!!
\n<\/a><\/p>\n

We always say it\u2019s good luck when we see javelina, and one night driving home, we saw 12! We sat in our cars and watched them eat for a while.<\/p>\n

Fishing with the fam at Tanque Verde Ranch. EJ was the only one who caught a fish (a tiny one!) but it was a very exciting moment.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Pool day with P and a friend at La Paloma:<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

For now, i\u2019s time for the weekly Friday Faves roundup! This is where I share some of my favorite finds from the week and around the web. I always love hearing about your faves, too, so please shout out something you\u2019re loving in the comments section below.<\/p>\n

9.11 Friday Faves<\/h2>\n

Fashion, beauty, random:<\/h3>\n

LOVE this leave-in hair mask.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

I really want these flats.<\/a><\/p>\n

If you don\u2019t have these leggings<\/a> from Vuori yet, they\u2019re some of my all-time faves. They have a drawstring, the fabric is amazing, and they have a ton of colors.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Read, watch, listen:<\/h3>\n

We pulled our kids out of private school<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This was a short listen<\/a> in the car one morning and I loved it. It was positive and empowering; the perfect way to start the day.(Also, if you haven\u2019t read You Can Heal Your Life<\/em><\/a> it\u2019s one of my my top books ever.)<\/p>\n

What do you want to learn this year?<\/a><\/p>\n

This is an incredible podcast episode.<\/a><\/p>\n

Fitness, health, and good eats:<\/h3>\n

RUN to Whole Foods for these mini pumpkin spice rice cakes. They are delectable.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

My hack for a party dessert when you\u2019re rushing around and don\u2019t have time to make anything: grab some desserts at Whole Foods, cut in half, place on a platter, boom.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Organifi launched beauty gummies and mine are on the way!<\/a> This link auto-applies my code to all of their products.<\/p>\n

More reasons to eat berries and grapes.\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

An exact copycat of the Whole Foods lentil dal soup<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Have an amazing weekend and I\u2019ll see ya soon!<\/p>\n

xoxo<\/p>\n
