one. I L-O-V-E David Nail. That’s a fact. And of course he didn’t disappoint with his new album, Fighter. We’ve got it on repeat around these parts!
two. If you’re shopping the Nordstrom Anni Sale this morning, you might as well add this plaid blanket scarf to your cart right this minute. As much as I’m loving all things summer, this makes me SOOOO excited for FALL!
three. My friend Katie sent me this yesterday and it made my day. Maybe my LIFE. And now I’m sharing it with you. You’re welcome!
“I look like that body Robin William wore in Mrs. Doubtfire!” Hahahahaha.
four. I said I’d never complain about the heat when we moved from Houston to KC. But OMGosh…it’s so HOT!!!! We’ve been trying to stay cool with lots of trips to the pool and a cold treat every now and then. There are few things that tastes as good as a slushy on a steamy day!
five. Watch out Branson…we’re coming for you! I’m so excited to kick off this trip that we’re taking with my whole family. I’m especially looking forward to taking Arden to Silver Dollar City. She’s never been to an amusement park, and lucky for her, she meets the height requirements to ride all the good rides! Being tall for your age can have its advantages 😉 Things will probably be a little quiet on the blog next week, but I can promise you plenty of over-sharing on Instagram and Snapchat.
Happy weekend, friends!

We’ve never been to Silver dollar City and it’s so close! We’ll have to put it on the list of things to do! Can’t wait for a full report!
Lindsay T. says
Okay, seriously, that was the funniest video I have ever seen. It may have just made my life too! I am going to go find and follow these 2 immediately. Thanks for sharing it and have fun on your vacay!

I too love David Nail, but his new album is taking a bit to grow on me. I feel like it’s quite different than his typical sound. Have fun on the trip!
Courtney says
Anything to keep cool! And, so fun when the kids can ride the fun rides =)
Jennifer says
Ahhh you are going to have a blast on the trip! Can’t wait to see pics on IG. We are going to Hershey, PA the following week and going to the kids’ park Dutch Wonderland as well as Hershey Park. I’m so excited to see Ben’s reaction to the little kid rides. Have a blast!
Erika says
It has just been hot everywhere! My trick is to eat tons of ice cream! Have a great trip!
Lindsay @ Lindsay's Sweet World says
Jacob’s favorite song right now is Night’s on Fire. We love David Nail, too! We’ve had him on repeat!
Laura Keenan says
Love that blanket scarf! And oh my, we’ve been in the 100s all week and still have another week of it. It has been miserably hot!
Shelby says
I absolutely LOVE David Nail, too! I’ve been listening to him on Spotify so much lately. It is supposed to feel like 110 this weekend here in Nashville…I’ll be indulging in alllll the cool treats this weekend for sure! That video is absolutely hilarious!!!!
Hope y’all have a great weekend! 🙂
Elizabeth says
Mason just hit the height requirement for almost all of the big kid rides at Disneyland and it made my day! I’m so excited to take him on all the cool rides now!
Hope you guys have the best time!
Tif says

i moved from houston to chicago and i said the SAME THING. i will never complain about the heat. i figured i’d have plenty to complain about with our brutal winters. buuuuuuuut it’s been 100 degrees here and i actually join my kids in getting wet at the splash pads lately. my husband has to constantly remind me how brief the heat is here and how it lasts foreeeeeeever in houston.
Melissa @ The Happy Little Hivee says
It’s been so hot here I’ve found myself dreaming of cozy sweaters and scarves while shopping the sale….and I’m not even a fan of winter! Hope you’re having a wonderful weekend!!
Julia says
Awe I love it! My grandparents took me to Silver Dollar City when I was young and it’s one of my fondest memories! I know you will all have a blast!
chelsea jacobs says
I just discovered the mom so hard ladies last week and they are HILARIOUS.
Sarah says
That video cracked me up! Soooo true!
Desiree says
Silver Dollar City?! SO FUN!! Have the absolute best time ever!!
Side note: are those slushies from Casey’s? If so, those are THE best!
jess says
I think I’m the only person that didn’t buy anything from the Nordstrom sale! haha Hope you found some good deals! And it’s been so HOT here too! We live near the beach and it’s been too hot to go or enjoy outside. This northern girl can’t take the southern heat! lol
