Five Things

Five things that I'm loving right now:

1) Burt's Bees Lip Shimmer - amazing lip protection with a hint of color. Perfect for summer.

2) The YouVersion Bible App - makes it super easy to read the bible all day long.

3) Blog friends that randomly email me to say "hey, how are you doing?"

4) Air drying my hair - it's so nice to ditch the blow dryer and the Chi. Hello waves.

5) Christian radio stations - I love being able to praise the Lord as I drive.

The next few days are going to be crazy busy as I help one of my best friends set up and prep for her wedding on Saturday. I'll be sharing peeks of the weekend on Instagram, so find me. (mackeymadness)

Happy almost weekend, friends!

Evelien said...

Beautiful picture! You look so pretty :)

PrettyPhysicist said...

you look gorgeous! such a knockout! ;)

that burt's bees sounds amaze ... I think I have to get it! (you know, like I REALLY need more lip balms ... lol)

I always air dry my hair - blow drying makes it frizzy and wild. air drying makes it stick straight - just how i like it :)

Emily said...

Great picture, you are so beautiful! Too funny about the hubs fake sleeping though...sounds like something mine would do!

Ronida Veedor said...

It gets really freaky when I realize I'm putting too much heat on my hair too! :)

Hilary Lane said...

You are too cute & I love reading your blog posts because they're always uplifting. :-)

Maggie said...

I love all of those things AND you! :)

I hope you have a fantastic Thursday and weekend sweet friend.

I thank the Lord for whoever designed YouVersion it is my fav. I love the fact that you can change the bible translations. Once you have it on your phone there's no reason not to read the bible.

The lip shimmer is a favorite of mine, too!! I have a question if you don't mind...do you put anything in your hair when you don't blow it dry?...mine is a tad bit wavy but it would frizz if air dried :{

Beth Ann said...

I air dry my hair all the time...because I'm too lazy to blow dry it! ;) Hope you have a super fun wedding weekend!

Leslie said...

I've been air drying my hair a lot lately too.. it makes me feel like it's a wee bit healthier :)

Rebekah said...

I love the Youversion app! I'm on it multiple times a day. I wish my hair would cooperate when I let it air dry!

Life With Lauren said...

Neely said...

I love getting emails like that too :)

Amy said...

I LOVE Christian radio stations!! I started listening to them full time in January, and I swear it's changed so much. Even just taking a quick drive to run an errand can turn into so much more when a great worship song comes on. Love it :)

I am so obsessed with all Burt's Bees products--I really like their tinted chap sticks too! I listen to Christian music so much when I'm in the car--I've found that I am so much more relaxed when I drive. No more road rage! ;) Hope you're having a good day--it's almost the weekend! :)

Meghan said...

Love me some Christian radio :)

Michaela said...

I love that lip shimmer, too. And the Christian stations. That's all I've been listening to lately...everything else makes me wanna cry or punch something...ha ;)

Burts Bees made my lips swell up and get all bumpy...so yeah, won't be trying out the tinted one, lol! You look great!

Rhiannon said...

Well aren't you two just the sweetest :) Hi Meg!

Liz said...

Jealous of your sexy waves!! Love that Bible app and the Daily Bible app too. We have some awesome Christian stations around here :)

Katie said...

Hahaha your husband cracks me up! And I wish my hair would look that good when I just let it air dry!

Ashley said...

I wish I could air dry my hair and have it look half way decent. I tried today to create loose "beachy" waves and instead I ended up with a giant frizz ball!

You're such a cutie!! I'm loving that app too. I finally signed up so I could bookmark verses and have been doing it ever since.

Have a great time getting things ready for her wedding!

I love Christian radio stations too! Air1 is one of my favorites! Though Klove is pretty great too. :)

Holly said...

Burts Bees is awesome - I have so many tubes of it sitting everywhere around my house!
Also, the fake sleeping in the background is hilarious!

Stephanie said...

Ditto on the air drying of the hair. I've been doing this for about a month now and it feels SO good! I actually am loving the waves, too!!

The days that I actually do blow dry and straighten my hair, not only do I not feel so guilty about applying all the heat, but it looks SO much healthier!

you two are so cute!

i've been air drying my hair a lot lately! sometimes you just have to give your hair a break!

Ashley said...

If I air dried my hair, it would look like the worst thing anyone has ever seen. Glad some of us just have the good hair genes!! :)

Ashley said...

Burt's Bees is so good!! Eos and BB are my favorites.

Hope you have a blast at the wedding, can't wait to see pictures!!

Courtney B said...

You are the sweetest! Love this post :)

Janna Bogert said...

Fun fact: I used to be in a christian rock band!! You would have loved us.

Shalyn said...

You are so lucky that your hair is naturally wavy! I would love that- your gorgeous!
