Five on Friday {Veteran's Day}

photo cred: Mark 

Happy Friday everyone! I'm so glad it's the weekend, aren't you?? Who doesn't love a Friday? :) Today I am extra grateful because it's the day that we stop and remember our Veterans and the selfless sacrifices they have made for our country. Take a moment... say a prayer, shake a hand, buy a meal, or hug someone that has defended our great nation. Remember that no matter where you fall in the political spectrum, there are still people out there who believe in what our country stands for and are defending those ideals from thousands of miles away from their loved ones.  Thank you to all of those who have served and continue to serve.

Last year, I shared a little story of how someone really impacted us by their generosity. To see the post, click here.

1- Take Me Back


On Monday, we got home from our long weekend in Michigan and I'm already wanting to go back. We had such a great time. If you want to see all our pics, click here to see the full post. 

2- Gilmore Girls Trailer


Okay, you've all probably seen this already but this has me SO excited. I can't wait to watch the episodes that are releasing the day after Thanksgiving. My mom and I are already planning a girls night to celebrate!

3- Target's Holiday Collection

buy it here

I'm pretty much obsessed with Target's holiday collection that is out right now. I don't want to blow by Thanksgiving but these items have me so excited to decorate for Christmas! I bought these place mats this week and I'm eyeing everything else, for the moment haha! I'm making myself wait though! 

How cute is this pillow??? I want this one and also this plaid pillow


4- The Magnolia Story 


I bought this book while on our trip and I finished it within two days. It was an easy read but also so good at the same time.  I loved Joanna and Chip before I read the book and now I'm even more obsessed with them. Their personalities really shone through and it was so neat to hear about their humble beginnings. They are seriously the cutest! This is a must read.

5- Perfect Winter Clutch


I saw this clutch a few weeks ago at Old Navy and I'm pretty obsessed with it. I love the deep wine color and the velvet texture. I think it will just add a pop of something special to a holiday outfit. I guess, I need to add this to my collection lol! :) 

Bonus 6: Conference Week


Last week was conference week and oh man I am excited that it's over. This is one of my favorite memes that describes what happens at conferences haha!
