Happy Friday! I am seriously not okay with this being the last day of July! We start school one month from today and that feels way too soon! I go back on August 24th and that is way way too soon. I will keep on summering through September but it gets a little harder when I am trapped inside at work all day. I have a bunch of favorites for you today, so let’s get to it!!
Favorite 1: ICE!! Jack got his wisdom teeth taken out on Wednesday morning and this ice pack was so helpful. I don’t have any pictures of it in action because Jack wasn’t feeling pictures, but it has been wonderful. It was pretty inexpensive and I highly recommend it to anyone that is having their wisdom teeth removed.
Favorite 2: ALASKA!! I am still enjoying our Alaskan trip. I shared our day in Glacier Bay National Park yesterday. It was incredibly beautiful! Go check out those pictures!
Favorite 3: BOOKS!! I am loving my summer reading list! I read quite a few books from my Summer Beach Reads list and shared my opinions this week. I am reading a backlist book from Jenny Colgan right now because I missed it last summer. I’m not sure how I missed this book, but I am happy to be reading it now!
Favorite 4: SUMMER SWIM!! Our summer swim season ended on Saturday night and I am sad it’s over. The last week can be a doozy with three meets in six days. I have no voice left, but I am happy. I absolutely love summer swim. It is truly a family sport. It is one of the only sports where 4 year olds and 18 year olds are on the same team, compete together, and cheer for each other. I love coaching with my kids and some fantastic teenagers. I love coaching kids and watching them grow over the 8 week season. It is just so fun!!
Favorite 5: JEWELRY!! It was love at first sight when I spotted this necklace on Tracy Smith on CBS Sunday morning. I don’t use it often, but Google Lens came in very handy and led me right to the necklace on Nordstrom’s website. Luckily, I had a gift card so that necklace arrived at my house the other day! I am still in love!! It’s the perfect Sarah necklace!
I am loving this bracelet too! I gathered this on our cruise. You could get the bracelet and the first few charms on the first day at sea. After that, there was one charm available each day. I know it’s probably a tourist trap type souvenier, but I love a charm bracelet and we saw or did everything on the charms except the moose.
Hello Monday
Reading Lately
Glacier Bay National Park
We have a low key weekend planned. I’m sure we’ll spend some time at the pool. Jack is hoping to feel well enough to lifeguard, but if he can’t Luke will fill in for him. We are going to see Jeff’s family for breakfast on Sunday. We haven’t seen them in a few months so that will be nice. I’m hoping to swim some laps, read, relax, and go for a walk both days. I hope August comes in very slowly with lots of fun! Have a great weekend full of sunshine and books!
