Five on Friday - Following Up

Did this week drag?  Or was it just me?
Woof.  I'm ready for the weekend.
So let's get to it, so we can kick our feet up and relax!

1.

Justin started to get irritated from the baking soda so he's back to normal deodorant half of the time.  This is a common complaint with natural deodorant, so I'll look for a new option for him.  I'm still in love.

The Toothpaste ROCKS.  We are still using it morning and night and don't have plans to switch back.

2.
Follow Up from Mother's Day

The spiralizer is awesome, I just need the zucchini to get bigger!  They are so skinny that half the zoodles are an inch long.  Bummer

Ringly fell flat.  I'm unimpressed.
I ordered this bracelet and when it arrived it was really yellow.  So I exchanged it for this one.  Only Ringly processed it as a return. Their customer service wasn't awesome either, so I decided to keep looking for something else.

3,
Justin's Father's Day gift has really knocked it out of the ballpark.  I hired two high school boys to do some yard work.

I love the progress!



This week they are weeding and re-rocking our backyard gardens.  It makes a world of difference!!


4.
The Pressure Washer

We bought Justin a pressure washer for his birthday 3 years ago.  We NEVER EVEN USED IT.  We loaned it to his brother to wash his deck and it hasn't worked since.  I recently took it to a small engine repair place and a MONTH later we officially can't fix it.

So Justin bought a new one last night.

This weekend that sucker will be busy - back patio, house exterior, driveway, etc, etc, etc.

Which brings me to

5.
Our back patio!!

Our new favorite place.  It's not finished, but it's 1000 x's better than before.

To Lincoln and Back Again

After 4 days of driving and 1 day in Lincoln, NE, I am so happy to be sleeping in my own bed again!

Nebraska has my heart and I had the best 40 hours being back.

While Justin and I were celebrating at a wedding, our lil guy was LOVING his time with his cousin and Grandma in Cheyenne.





Have I mentioned how much I love Rent the Runway?  Because I do.
The dress was FANTASTIC!



Of course, no visit to NE is complete without a selfie session with my bestie :)




Ugh, I'm ready to drive back already.  Only this time I'll stay for a week.  Or a month ;)
