Friday Highlights 6.5.15

Hello Friday!

Or should I say hello summer! Summer finally arrived with all of its warm sun shiney glory and we couldn't be more excited! This week we hit up the $1 Summer Movie Express to watch Annie, visited the library and went swimming.... all in one day. I just love summers with my girls and the season of life that we are in. 

{ONE}  On The Blog This Week

This week I recapped my May goals and set goals for the month of June.


Played catch up on our Sunday photo project.


Joined in with a new favorite monthly link-up featuring the man behind the blog


{TWO} all free clear

How will you be celebrating?

{FOUR} Garden Progress
It has been about a month since I planted my garden and I thought it would be fun to share how things are going.

Sugar Babies and Cantaloupe
We added a long row of sunflowers on Mothers Day.

 

Jalapenos, Butternut Squash & Zucchini


Mild Jalapenos, Carrots, Romaine & Cucumbers


Tomatoes


Tomatoes, Bell Peppers, Anaheim Peppers, Banana Peppers, Moracino Peppers


My 2015 Summer Garden!



Maybe in another month we will almost have some crops to harvest.

{FIVE} Girl Mom

This week I had Danielle from Sundaes & Spaghetti share her story about being a girl mom.


She wrote such a sweet post about her little girl Annabelle. Danielle is also expecting another bundle of pink in a few months too. I just grin ear to ear when I think of sisters.

Make sure you read Danielle's post to find out a few things that she wants her girls to know. 


If you're interested in sharing your story about being a girl mom fill out this survey and I will be in touch.

  2. National Donut Day! How did I not know that? Hmm...my girls and I are without a car today. I may need to figure out if we have donuts within walking distance from our home.


    Your garden looks great!

  3. I was so hoping to get a free donut today... but most places require you to buy a drink as well. Boo! I love how your garden is looking. We just planted our garden a few weekends ago. I'm looking forward to tomatoes and fresh basil to use on our pizza! Plus thanks for the shot out, you are just too sweet! I had fun guest posting! :)

  7. Thanks Becky!

  8. Do you have a patio that gets any sun? Container gardening might work well if you have enough space! It's not quite the same but it can work really really well and is better than nothing!

    Have a great weekend!

  9. Yeah that does kind of stink. Unfortunately any place that does the free donut thing isn't a chain that Joplin has :(. Fresh tomatoes are simply the best, I can't wait. You are so welcome. Thanks for being a part of my series!

    Movie, library, pool, all in one day? Best. Day. Ever!
    Oh my goodness, the week 16 photo of the girls is priceless. It should be in a frame, for sure.
    Please come be my gardener. I beg.
    National Donut Day has been celebrated in this house - 1/2 dozen to get the day started! #breakfastofchampions

  27. Wahoo! What do you do with your radishes? Salad? I've never been a radish eater. Spinach, that I can definitely handle.

    ReplyDelete
  28. I would love to grow some veggies but we have no room in our yard and what space we have, James is wanting to put in a fire pit.

    ReplyDelete
  29. Great post! And I am in love with your garden. We have a huge garden here but we usually let my in-laws use it. I am wanting to dip into gardening to see what I can accomplish!

    ReplyDelete
  30. Could you do some container gardening? It is amazing the things you can grow that way!

    ReplyDelete
  31. That is so sweet of y'all. You should totally go for it. It is therapy for me and so very rewarding to harvest and eat from your yard.

    ReplyDelete
  32. Looks like you and your girls had a fantastic week. I love your garden. I planted some Tomatoes and peppers too. I hope they do well. This is my first attempt at a garden lol. Thanks for linking up to H54F!

    ReplyDelete
  33. Oh that is so exciting! I just love being able to harvest veggies I have grown! Good luck with your gardening adventures!

    ReplyDelete
  34. You know I never really liked radishes before either. But there are so any different kinds just like apples. There are some I don't like but they are growing on me! They are so easy to grow and you can eat the leaves too (I have yet to try them). I mostly put them in salads or in veggie trays to dip in ranch or hummus!
