Friday Favorites

May 4, 2018

Another Friday is upon us and today is the first Friday in May!

I won’t beset my post by using the obvious May the Fourth memes

 

Because after all…

 

Its Gonna Be May GIF

If you know who this is, then you likely know what that means.

 

And although “ITS JUST MAY”… I’ll always celebrate Friday.

 

As I do every Friday, I’m sharing my

Friday Favorites

 

Favorite # ONE

Tomorrow is

Cinco de Mayo

A Mexican day celebrated mostly by those of us in the U.S.A.  Most people just want a reason to have a party and Cinco de Mayo is good motivation.

  LB and I enjoy La Nopalera regularly.  Last year LB and I enjoyed dinner there with friends.  In that post I selected some appropriate outfits and accessories to wear for May 5th celebrating.    You can check them out here.  They are perfect for partying.  And speaking of partying, this party playlist is perfect for a Cinco de Mayo party.

This Cinco de Mayo party playlist posted by blogger The Queen in Between  on The Blended Blog Friday Loves post is great.

Found at the bottom of the playlist is a link to a site providing step by step instructions for making your own Cinco de Mayo sunglasses.  You won’t want to miss that!

 

This year, instead of the Cinco de Mayo party, LB and I will formally observe

 

Favorite # TWO

The Kentucky Derby

Also known as The Run for the Roses.

Here’s my hatand dress.

 I’m looking forward to getting all dressed up and enjoying the fastest 2 minutes in sports.

Also the horses’ names are amusing and clever.  Some of the recent winners include: California Chrome in 2014, American Pharaoh in 2015, Nyquist in 2016 and Always Dreaming in 2017.

 

Favorite # THREE

Springtime means gardening

and gardening means

MULCH

I must get the obsession from my Mama.

While she opted for a truckload, I’m filling my landscape with one bag at a time.

With any luck I’ll be finished in time for hurricane season to blow it all out into the grass.

 

 

Favorite # FOUR

I love this little girl.

While I was visiting with her last night, she noticed my Fitbit which I usually wear around my ankle.  She announced, “I need one of those!”

This morning while I was at work, Mama sent me this text message:

Just like Glammy.

 

 

Favorite # FIVE

My new gingham pants from LOFT.

Regularly 69.50, I purchased them for $28.03 using Honey.

The yellow blouse that is paired with these pants pictured on the website looks very cute on the LOFT model.  However I prefer this look:

In comparison, mine is slightly lacking.

 

 

Thank you for taking time out of your day to stop by my blog.

Welcome!


I’m Kim… and I love Pretty clothes, Pretty décor, Pretty days, and Pretty much anything that involves family and fun.  Growing up, My Mama told me more than once “Pretty is as Pretty does” …encouraging me to focus on the inner pretty girl, as she is the one that matters most.

Here on my blog, I’m sharing what I see as pretty.  Whether it be an outfit, an experience, an event, a memory or thought.  Hopefully I’ll share something that will be interesting, useful, or make you smile along the way.
