Welcome to the Friday 5! Every Friday I will highlight 5 things I am currently loving. This can be anything from habits that are currently serving me, clothes, apps, people I am currently loving, podcasts, food, mom hacks and everything in between! This week, I thought I would have my husband, Matt, provide the 5 things he is loving to help give you guys some Father’s Day gift inspiration. Here’s What Matt is Currently Loving: Pocket Knife There was a time when just about every man carried a pocketknife. It was as essential as your wallet, cell phone and keys. It seems like these days there is only room for…

We host a crawfish boil every year on Memorial Day weekend and it has become one of my favorite weekends of the year. This will be our fifth annual party and I get better at planning it every year.

Memorial Day Weekend
Memorial day is upon us. It is one of my favorite weekends of the year. The tradition of us hosting a crawfish boil started in 2016 when Lillian was baptized on the Sunday of Memorial Day weekend. A crawfish boil was the perfect way to celebrate with our friends and family. We decided to keep the tradition alive and host a boil every year, and it’s the official start of summer for us. I love hosting parties, but just don’t do it enough since the girls are still so little. I am dying for a fancy dinner party, but the idea of having toddlers running around during cocktail hour ruins…

What I am currently loving: Evolve Studios I am embarrassed that it took me 15 issues in this series to include Evolve, but I just assumed everyone knew how much I love it. Evolve Studios is a fitness studio with locations in Baton Rouge and Mandeville owned by Tayler Landry and Rachel Crockett. They offer a HIIT class called Burn and Evolve Pilates, which is done on the…

What I am currently loving: Living With Landyn Podcast I’m not sure what it is about Landyn or her podcast, but you just feel like you are really her friend. She has a way of connecting with her followers that is just amazing. She shares her day to day life, motherhood journey, style tips, recipes and home décor. Also, she has become a self-admitted “crazy chicken lady” with…

This can be anything from habits that are currently serving me, clothes, apps, people I am currently loving, podcasts, food, mom hacks and everything in between! What I am currently loving: Fairy Tales Hair Care Products I had been struggling for about a year with the girls’ hair. It was very dry and almost brittle. Lillian’s hair is fine and wavy, Stella’s is thick and straight and nothing I was using seemed to do the trick for either of them. I wanted to stick with something nontoxic and of course tear free, since they…

The Big Game
We love football in this house, especially the NFL. While Matt is a hardcore Cowboys fan, I am diehard Saints fan, we will watch no matter who is playing. So when the beginning of February rolls around, we are always pumped to watch the big game. Before having kids, I loved hosting a party for the game, but with as young as the girls are, hosting a party, particularly one in which I would have to get the girls down for bed in the middle of, we’ve opted to just watch the game the two of us over the past few years. Since Lillian and Stella are a little older…

What I am currently loving: Smartless Podcast If you are looking for a podcast to kill an hour and giggle, this is it. This podcast is hosted by Jason Bateman, Sean Hayes and Will Arnett. Based on the ads on this show, I think they are really going for a male demographic, like Autozone and E.D. meds, but I just love it. One of them invites the guest…

What I am currently loving: Kids Plates and Bowls from Ikea We do not have an Ikea locally, but when I saw these plates at my sister-in-law’s house, I knew I had to have them. Before getting these plates, we had a mismatch of all different kinds of kids plates. All with different shapes, sizes, compartments, some with suction cups on the bottom, etc. You name it, we…
