Five Things Friday: Longing for Summer

We're headed for warmer weather in 12 days and I have summer on the brain. Sorry to those of you snowed in. I'll be thinking of you as our ship sets sail to Aruba. Actually, I won't, but I hope that makes you feel better. :)

This week's Five Things Friday includes some of my summer favorites, and a couple new finds that make me long for summer.

I admit it's a little odd to clean your hair and then promptly make it dirty again, but I go through several bottles each summer. Love it! I really am a California girl to my core.

Admit it, you love them too! They're cheap, practical, and come in every color imaginable.


I have been a fan of Katie Daisy for a while now. I have several of her prints including this one {HERE}. I was so excited to see that she's working with PBteen. This cute little pillow screams summer lounging and might find a spot in our master bedroom. Mostly I'm just excited that Katie has been so successful. I have a soft spot for Etsy artists.

I am seriously tempted to order this little number. Oh, the ruching and bow. Must. Resist. Temptation.

Neutrogena is absolutely my favorite brand of sunscreen. No fragrance, oil free, and I buy it in bulk at Target at the beginning of the summer. Score! There's always a bottle hanging out in my purse; I use it all year long.


Well, there you have it. Summer will be here before you know it, and so will that swimsuit. I have no self control. Ha! It was just too irresistible.

Jumping on the Green Smoothie Bandwagon

Matt and I decided that we're going to do this "Green Eyed Monster Clense Cleanse" until we leave for vacation - should I be worried that they can't spell cleanse correctly? 

Green Eyed Monster Clense for weight loss and health.

We have exactly $0 to spend on new clothes for the trip, and I need to take some formal-ish wear with me. I have this black dress I bought when we went to Europe a couple of years ago that I want to wear. Problem is that it looks like a second layer of skin on me. I say I need to loose about 10 lbs for it to look good, Matt said more like 20 lbs. He's so positive and supportive.

We had our first smoothie for dinner tonight. I used 2 c baby spinach, 1 1/2 c water, 1 green apple, and 1 pear. I know is says to choose I fruit, but I made our smoothies at the same time, so technically we only consumed 1 fruit. I used 2 scoops of protein, but that was WAY too much. I'll probably use 1 next time.


I thought it was good, but I'm used to the green super food smoothies you buy at the grocery store. This is the face Matt made.


It's going to be a long 14 days for him.

The Cutest Jumper on the Block

Gale over at Sugartogs has upped the jumper cuteness factor with this confection {HERE}. I'm a sucker for ric-rac, ruffles, and vintage buttons. If only I had a little girl to rock this! *Sigh*

Bone Day Fun

Matt made a Target run and found giant bones for the boys! I snapped a few pictures. They were too cute not to share.


I love Fox's look. He's all like, "what you want, CAT?"



BTW, those boxes are our Christmas decorations. We're still trying to put them away. In February.

Shameful!

Bursting Camellias

The camellias out front are about to burst. I love when spring is on the horizon.
