Happy Friday! I’m linking up today with Andrea and Erika to share some favorites. 

Ellie had a late Birthday celebration a couple weeks ago. These cookies are a favorite. The details on them could not be beat and they weren’t just pretty, they tasted delicious. If your local, I can share her name if you’d like:)

Are you guys Aldi people? We are. I have a running list of some of the things we like from there and this lemon pound cake is one of them. It was so good! I think it might be seasonal though. 

Side note: I’m quickly realizing my only favorites this week are apparently sweets. We aren’t even sweets people, but apparently lately we have been. 

We had a pretty raining few days last week/weekend so we decided to bring the movie projector inside, eat red and green snacks and watch Elf. We called it Christmas in July. It was cozy and festive and fun. 

I realized last week I hadn’t given an update on Avery since one week or so post op in January. She is now 6 months out from her splenectomy and gall bladder removal and thriving. I get teary I’d thinking about it. She’s actually growing and feels so much better. This surgery was optional but recommended for her with Hereditary Sphereocytosis. It was stressful to make the decision to go with it, but so worth it. She’d tell you the same thing. 

Keeping it short this week, we have memories to make!
