LOVE that garden party! such a sweet idea!

Fairy garden parties for everyone! 🙂 Love that and I'm going to try to do something like that for my girls and their friends. Also, they get invited to a neighbor's party every year, and I think a fairy garden would make a great hostess gift :). And thanks for the song!

That video! I remember reading briefly how Maroon 5 crashed a wedding but I didn't realize it was multiple weddings for their video. LOVE then genuine faces of shock on the bride and grooms.

Thanks for showing off my succulent planter girls! xoxoxo That steak though! I need it in my belly asap!

I am loving all those ideas!! Happy Holidays!

um…. that's a whole lotta yumminess!!! 🙂

loving the skirted stool…adorable! and saw the other woman movie (first movie in a long time) and agree… hilarious!

In case you were interested, many of those dolls from Plato Squirrel were originally created by Gingermelon. If you go to her etsy page, you can not only get dolls, but many patterns to create them yourself, which is excellent if you want to make a set or customize for someone special!

I bookmarked most of these shops. Super cute! Thanks for sharing them with us 🙂 Happy weekend!!

Obsessed with the garlands (made out of vintage story books!) and the zipper pouches in this shop: https://www.etsy.com/shop/OwlMoonBaby She sells at our local Farmer's Market and I've been so impressed with the quality of her work.

go on the train ride out of Skagway if that is one of your stops. take the walk in Ketchikan to see the salmon if you have time. explore the culture and don't stay too long in shops. stay out on the deck of the boat as much as possible, the whales and scenery are amazing!

I don't know anything about Alaska, ;), but I do know that this is one of my Favorite Friday Five's ever! Have a great weekend!

I have been on 3 cruises to Alaska and love it and I know you will too! You will see some whales from your ship but I suggest you book a whale excursion on a small boat to get an awesome experience. To save money on all your excursions and be with a smaller group I recommend reserving them before you go and with a reputable tour company (not the cruise line).
And take a raincoat or poncho as they have a fair amount of "liquid sunshine".

I've never been on a cruise, but my family and several of my friends have been on several and they have always told me if I took a cruise to ask my doctor about getting a dramamine patch. I'm not prone to motion sickness, but my dad who is retired Navy has told me that it does help. They have seen several passengers so sick they weren't able to enjoy the cruise. Have a great time.

Great tips so far. I'll add 2. Bring warm gloves. Visit any and all Visitor Centers in any towns you stop in. They can tell you the best places not to miss. Have a great time-I know we did!

Eeeek! Thanks for featuring my baseball goodie bags Jodie! And that chore chart app looks awesome too! Getting a text that says my kids' chores are done seems like it would be the best texts I've ever received. 🙂

Have fun at the birthday party! Enjoy your weekend!! I'll be studying poetry and writing a paper for college. Yay! Have an awesome weekend!!

The eggs are beautiful!!!!

I love Kristen Bell, and I love that she got recognition in Frozen, but also sad she's overshadowed by the other gal. I love sprinkles, and that Girls room is pretty FAB! Also love those gold leafed eggs, fancy!

yay Happy Birthday!!!! I love the sweatshirt on the top right!!!! So cute!

I've always loved that hose wreath, and those pancakes make me hungry, too! Cute baby;)

Adam Levine on NYE!? Great way to ring in the new year! 🙂

I am so in love with that wallpaper!!!!! <3

I rewatched Fat Sick and Nearly dead and broke out my new juicer. We used to have the Breville one but then switched to one that cold presses so that the juice stays more viable. (It's also way quieter) It's delicious, and we feel great but I'm not sure I could do a full fast. Even today I had a brain fart at work and can't even imagine how spacey I'd be on no food. Plus I'd have to juice for an hour the night before to have juice for the whole next day. It's so tempting though.

I am sure your Primary President already thinks your the bomb!!

that print options temps me to get a smart phone…I had a recent reason I wanted a polaroid, but can't even remember what it was!!

Hey cute friend- thanks for the shout out!! xo
And you love the same song as Julia. 😉 I know it by heart.

Love that song! and we'll never be Royals, Royals…

Loved looking at sunshine magazine! Thanks!

Guilty pleasure – the Bachelorette!

Little Miss Posie is adorable. Miss you guys!

Lovely photos.:) In our country school begins on the 1st of September.:)

Pretty sweet! I'm still up in the air with instagram with video. I think I want my pics to be with other pics and video with video. I'll stick with that for now since I like to print my instagrams. That recipe looks amazing!!!! trying 😉

I used the Dr. Brown bottles with all three of my boys. A little tedious to clean but loved them. Cute accessory!

Oh my gosh, I LOVE Steve Carell. He's hilarious and I love that he's Gru. I didn't get to see this clip, so thanks for sharing.

Have you seen the new Kmart commercial about big gas prices?! It is equally funny!

LOVE that Kmart commercial!!! And thanks for sharing the Gru on Ellen clip – loveeed it!!

I love all of these! Commercial = hilarious, bow = adorable, cups = LOVE this song!, potty training = don't miss those days :), dove real beauty = eye opening (I too posted that one on my blog a week or so ago). Have a great weekend!

i like the song when i'm gone, but if my kids do the cup part of it on my kitchen counter, the wall, the bureau, the car……one more time…..

These are awesome videos! That Pepsi/Jeff Gordon one is for my son – he'll get a kick out of it. And the cups song is definitely for my daughter – she loves Pitch Perfect. I guess the Dove video is for me. 🙂
Thanks for sharing!

That's the cutest invie EVER.

I'm thinking about my baby girl turning one today and my one week countdown until Walt Disney world marathon weekend!!!!!!

Where's the kid's parkas? Trying to freeze them? JK…on Christmas morning here it was COLD…-18C or so, brrr.
Love the Articles of Faith cards…just released from Primary though.
I'm thinking about getting my sewing done! I have two blouses and a new temple outfit/dress (as yet pattern not decided on nor fabric (white) chosen…not sure if polar fleece is reverent enough…our new temple is cold!).

Happy New Year!

You read my mind with those Article of Faith Cards! I was just going to ask for a copy :o)

I ran into Target this week to pick up gloves, and had to touch all the new stuff (and I may have bought a new piggie bank…it was a citron yellow bird)…how was I supposed to resist all their cuteness?

Nice stuff there,,

Just wanted to say Thank You for sharing your articles of faith punch card!

I have been thinking about 1. Going to a pumpkin patch. 2. Getting my Starbucks coffee with pumpkin spice syrup 3. Baking pumpkin bread, 4. Making a fall bucket list, 5. And sewing a slipcover for my couch. All pumpkin related except for number 5!

Hi Jodie! Thanks for sharing ~ that video of the proposal made my day!!!!

I have to say that video was adorable! It made me tear up. Such an awesome proposal.

Love the yellow necklace!

Thanks for sharing that video! I teared up, too! How lucky she is to have so many friends and a wonderful fiance!

Nearly bawled while I watched the video. I watched it twice and then had my husband watch it. I think he even got a bit misty!! How would you say no after a production like that.

Your daughter piper is so cute! I love the name! Thank you so much for posting my shop! what a wonderful surprise! I cant thank you enough!
