Journey Jots #74
Hello, guys!
How are you? How was your week? How’s the weather where you are? Do you have anything fun planned for Spring? I can’t believe we enter April this week!
I love hearing from you and learning what’s new in your world. Let me know in the comments!
Life Lately
Yet another week has come and gone…it’s just crazy how fast time flies, isn’t it?!
We spent some time with Molly over the weekend! We enjoyed exploring the yard while uncle helped fix up her daddy’s bike. She was such a helper!
Tilly has been loving the weather and our daily walks WITHOUT snow! Look how precious!
One thing you may not know about me is that I love to bake. Specifically I love to bake cookies…I got that from my Grandma Jean who baked cookies almost daily!
Over the weekend, I made THE MOST AMAZING snickerdoodle cookies EVER! Seriously…THE best thing I’ve ever put in my mouth. I’ll link the recipe below!
Weekly Shopping Finds- Spring Things I’m Loving Lately
- You guys…it’s happened. I finally broke down and bought some readers for when I’m doing computer work (which is a lot). This pack of readers is ADORABLE and truly can say that they work!
- If you need some new dressy sandals for Spring, might I recommend this pair?!
- Hubby and I both recently purchased this neck pillow for sleeping. It’s truly been a game changer for not waking up with so much neck pain!
- My favorite skincare brand is having a huge sale!! The vegan collagen cream that I use is 20% off!
- I’ve really been enjoying having a cup of matcha tea after lunch. With a splash of almond milk and a little honey, it’s a yummy afternoon pick me up!
