Happy Friday! Our summer has come to a close. The girls have finished their first week back at school and we are all getting back into a routine. Hopefully this means I will have a little extra time for more posts! As much as I will miss our flexible summer days, I am excited to have more structured days and for having a little more quiet during those days. 🙂

Now onto a few things that are making life just a little better!!!

1. Benefit’s Erase Paste

I have been on the fence about buying this for probably a year. I am usually always disappointed with under eye concealers so I wasn’t in a big rush to purchase it. I finally gave in and bought it about a month ago and I love it. I bought the lightest shade and it is perfect on me. It blends great, doesn’t stand out, looks natural, brightens my eyes and conceals my dark circles. Total winner for me. Also not a bad price at all considering you only have to use a small amount. It will last a very long time.

2. Sanuk Yoga Sling

These shoes are amazing. I’ve seen these around for awhile and I finally decided to try them on and I was sold. They feel amazing. So comfy, and they come in lots of cute designs and colors. The footbed is made out of yoga mats.

3. Cold brew has been my best friend all summer and I do not see this friendship ending anytime soon! I love making my own, but Starbucks also makes a very tasty one. I get mine slightly sweetened and a splash of coconut milk. Perfection!

4. Ummmm did I mention that school has started back 🙂 The girls have had a great first week back. I can’t believe Lily is already in 2nd grade and Emma is in PreK4.

5. My song of the week is…..

I’m linking up today with Heather, Katie,and Clare!

What has been making you smile this week?

Nothing makes me happier than buying gifts for other people. I keep lists all year long of things that I hear my friends and family mention that they like so that I can surprise them with it later on! Often times I am at a loss when I’m asked what do you want for Christmas….I mean I know that there are things that I’ve seen while browsing online or out shopping, but unless I make an effort to write it down or snap a picture then I’ll probably forget all about it! So this year I am making a Wish List!

1. Oakley Active Sunglasses

I need new sunglasses for running and these look perfect!

2. Absolutely Avocados

Avocados are apart of my life EVERY. SINGLE. DAY! If I had to pick just one food to eat it this is what it would probably be. So an entire book about them sounds fabulous to me!

3. Fabletics

I cannot wait to try out some of their activewear so a GC to here would be perfect! I love all the styles and all the bright fun colors!
