just a little happy for your weekend

[photo source]<— actually, just found out it’s from here!

Oh yes. It’s weekend time again!

In fact, we get bonus weekend at our house because Oliver had a “snow” day today. (I’m looking out my window right now, and the ground is currently 98% grass, 2% snow. Better safe than sorry?) I’m not complaining though – we’ve made a special day out of it.

For fun, would you like to see a few things that kept me entertained this week?

//a few links//

Okay, to start, check out this series of photographer self-portraits of him falling from crazy/scary places.

Oh, and another funny thing: these clever, clever shopping bags.

Shoot, I have more “funnies” than I realized. Because you definitely need to check out my favorite animated .gif for the week, this real-time moonrise (holy moly!!!), and the real-time Twitter map that lights up the globe.

Currently in my Amazon shopping cart. (Do y’all let favorites hang out in there for a while like me?)

This straight-up blew my mind. And I wish I had enough hair to try it.

Oh, and we got a new upholstered headboard this week (found by my friend Devon!). No joke (I almost don’t want to tell you), after tax it was less than $250 (I had a coupon). Bam. So glad we didn’t rush into one last fall!

Current dress crush. I can’t pick a color.

The coolest worldwide restaurant guide I’ve ever seen.

Oh, and I sent Ryan a picture of these when I was out shopping with Hazel on Wednesday. Just a little Valentine hinting.

And while he’s at it, I wouldn’t kick this out of bed for eating crackers.

Newly listed today, this custom wooden name tag and knit cowl handmade by someone I like quite a lot. Spot any familiar names in there??

I’m a bit behind in Downton Abbey season three (I just finished episode 3), so this hilarious Facebook recap of the episode was spot on for me! (spoilers warning if you’re not there yet!!)

Okay, I think that’s all. Have an awesome weekend, dear friends!

What are some of your favorites from the week? I’d love to see!

    Loving those links — especially the Downton Abbey Facebook feed!!!! It had me laughing out loud. Thanks so much for sharing. {Though, I must say I can NOT believe what happened last episode?! Nervous about what’s to come in the following episodes…}

    Whoa; I almost bought a Life Factory bottle at Whole Foods today! I want a larger one with a drink spout though and was hoping to find better colors online than what they offered.

    Much enjoyed the shopping bags; sent that link around!

    This post was full of goodies! The moon-rise!!?? Ridic!!!! I am saving that video to watch again and again. And thanks to you I now have a new headboard. Score! P.s. I went to the website to look at it again (still waiting to pick mine up), and it is SOLD OUT, probably thanks to you. Thanks for sharing!!

      Aw, yay!! So glad you got one before they were gone!! :) I can’t imagine I have THAT much clout, but I definitely waited to share the link until I had mine picked up ;)

      So glad you enjoyed the round up!
