1 – JACK O’ LANTERNS/TREES

{Terracotta Jack O’ Lanterns/similar fruit print}

Happy Saturday! We’re kicking off today’s Saturday 6 with Jack O’ Lanterns! So sorry. I’m not trying to ruin summer by talking about fall too early! I’m in NO rush for summer to end. I just feel it’s imperative to let you know that these terracotta jack o’ lanterns are back in stock! Last year they sold out by early August which is why I’m giving you a head’s up so early! I took this picture last year and didn’t share it because by the time they arrived on my doorstep they were sold out. This is the medium and large size and I was waiting on the small. This year they added an XL size! TOO fun. I love the black.

I mixed them with regular pumpkins on my Halloween porch last year. I’m very tempted to pick up more for inside this year!

 {lighted maple trees}

In other fall news! My beloved lighted maple trees are on sale this weekend! The lowest price I’ve seen them.

I love these trees! They are so beautiful at night. You can see all 3 of my terracotta pumpkins in this pic. :) Just had to share the jack o’ lanterns and trees for those who like to plan early because they are favorites.

2 – EARLY HALLOWEEN FINDS

This is another sweater I loved from the sale! It sold out in green but is still in stock in a brown that would be fun for fall.

4 – OUTFIT SOURCES

{Palm Springs Tee/Anessa High Waist Wide Leg Jeans/Raffia Sandals/Initial Necklace}

I got lots of emails/DM’s asking about this outfit when I shared details on Mattress Firm pillows I recently bought. These are the same jeans I just shared above with a $10 top from Target. :)

5 – HYDRANGEAS/SHEETS

{Faux Hydrangeas/Clear Vase}

I picked up another bundle of hydrangeas during prime day so I could have 9 total in this vase! They look so beautiful! I have loved them this summer and love that I’m not replacing them every 10 days like I usually do with real hydrangeas. Everyone thinks they are real! The water helps. :)

{Favorite Sheets}

I also ordered another set of our favorite sheets. And a lot of college stuff for the girls! I hope you picked up something fun too. :)

6 – MASTER ART/BLANKET SALE

{charcoal zuma blanket/linen gauze throw/linen gauze bed blanket}

My charcoal blanket at the end of my bed is part of the N sale this year! It comes in a natural and cream color too and I love the waffle texture.

{Rustic Wildflower Canvas}

I’m so happy to finally have this canvas hung above my bed! It works for all seasons with the beautiful flowers and moody color combo.

{sutherland canopy bed/stripe linen duvet cover/stripe linen shams/grey linen blend comforter grey sham/stitched throw pillow/

Well that was a random 6 on Saturday! Now back to all things summer. :)

Enjoy the rest of your weekend!

{COLLEGE DORM ESSENTIALS – AMAZON PRIME DAY}

Covering lots in this post! First off.. if you are sending one off to college this fall (or will be at some point) I rounded up all of the items I’m ordering/considering for my girls! I wanted to share our dorm essentials for those of you who have asked while so many items are on sale for Prime Day! You can see my favorites HERE. I’ll keep adding to this page as we order things and college moms.. definitely let me know if I’m missing anything they might need!

{Large Moving Bags}

These large moving bags were perfect to get El settled a couple of years ago. We were able to drive her but with Addison we’ll be flying so I’m hoping to ship a lot to the school and will probably just use suitcases with the rest. I still need to figure that out!

Sharing more fun Prime Day deals below and then some pics from our recent trip to Deer Valley!

{Distressed Vase}

I snapped this with my phone quick today.. my living room vase is on sale! Another great Amazon find. Below are a few more items for HOME on sale!

Speaking of home! This stunning space was ours for a week in Deer Valley.. so gorgeous! My parent’s requested a week together with the family for their 50th wedding anniversary and when Kenny and I found this cabin on-line last summer we couldn’t book it fast enough. We had the best time staying here all together. It was large enough that we could all spread out or spend time all together in this spacious family room.

The best part was the view. Absolutely stunning! I love Deer Valley in the summer.

We all arrived 30 minutes before my parents and had just enough time to hang a quick banner my sister ordered and set out the cake before they came! My parents are the cutest and I love that we got a chance to celebrate their love for each other. They have always set such a good example of what love and marriage should look like. Couple goals! Making it to 50 years is pretty special.

Yellow roses are my mom’s favorite. :)

We snapped this right after we hung the banner. Love that we got the duct tape in the pic too.. ha. Always so happy when I’m with my siblings!

The cabin had a large basement that was a perfect hang out spot for all the kids.

They were in heaven with their own spot and even had a theatre room. They never wanted to leave!

Feeling was mutual.

Oldest granddaughter. These two have a special bond. :)

The original 5.

My little brother. He is the one who brings the party to the party. Especially when you get him and my husband together. Those two are trouble! I’ve always felt like Kenny married me just to hang out with him. Ha.

As soon as we decided on Deer Valley for this week I made a reservation for adults to eat at Grappa. Hands down my favorite restaurant in Park City and maybe my favorite restaraut EVER. It’s Italian and SO good! Definitely trust me and try it if you haven’t already and are visiting this area!

{Denim Shirtdress/Sandals}

Closer look at my dress that I recently shared! I like it better with these sandals but forgot to pack them on our trip.

{Denim Shirtdress/Raffia Sandals/Purse}

Isn’t Grappa charming!?

Definitely request to sit outside if you’re visiting in the summer or when the weather is nice. There are various levels of tables and it feels like you’re dining in a tree house with gorgeous mountain views!

Delicious AND beautiful.

I’m clearly still thinking about my meal.. ha.

We snapped this after dinner and had all been crying! Kenny made a toast to my parents and said a few things at dinner and it was so touching and made us all bawl! Totally unplanned and unexpected. After he spoke my sister’s husband said a few things and then my cute sister in-law did.. there wasn’t a dry eye at the table. The in-laws stole the show! :) They don’t feel like in-laws.. they are my parent’s kids as much as we are and I will always remember and treasure what was said. I know my parents will too. I’m so grateful to my parents for loving us all like they do.

We strolled around after dinner and got chocolate to take home for dessert.

The best night.

The rest of the week we just relaxed and spent time together! Lots of hikes and games and movies and restaurants and hot tub time.

My sister had some cute 50th anniversary games planned and Pictionary was such a hit! It was all themed with things about grandma and grandpa and the kids had to guess pretty close to the right phrase. Things like “planting peas in grandpa’s garden” or “grandma’s Amazon boxes”.. ha. There were so many funny personal jokes and we were all cracking up. We also played a cute game where the kids had to answer questions about my parents.. “where did grandma and grandpa meet?” “How many houses have they lived in?” “Where did they go on their honeymoon?” etc. I loved it because it was such a fun way for the kids to learn more about their grandparents and hear funny stories about them. The last question was “what do grandma and grandpa like to do together?”

My cute dad answered “everything.” :)

We had such picture perfect weather while we were there that now we all want to move to Deer Valley! I have to keep reminding myself what it’s like 8 months out of the year. Kenny thinks we could handle the snow. I think definitely NOT. Ha.

But I would live there every summer if I could! And into the fall..

Love that these kids are so close. They all had the best time together. Their favorite vacations are always trips that involve the cousins!

My cute niece loves to do whatever the big kids are doing but sometimes runs out of steam. Uncle Kenny to the rescue. :)

Such a special week celebrating my mom and dad! I’m so grateful for the time we all had together. There is nothing better than time spent with family/people you love.

Except maybe eating at Grappa.

;)

{Serta iSeries Mattress}

I couldn’t resist checking out the mattresses while we were there and thought I would share a few of our favorites (all are on sale right now!) starting with this Serta iSeries. It’s plush and contours to your body and has a cooling technology that keeps you nice and cool while you sleep!

{Sleepy’s By Sealy Premium Memory Foam Mattress}

This is a great memory foam mattress that has a lot of support and is also so comfortable.

{Sleepy’s By Sealy Premium Memory Foam Mattress}

{Purple Restore Mattress}

This purple restore mattress is Kole’s favorite! It’s supportive and breathable and keeps you nice and cool. It’s also hypoallergenic (prevents dust mites!) so really good for people with allergies.

{Purple Restore Mattress}

I couldn’t get him off of this one! He quickly decided going to the mattress store is an acceptable errand and he will join me there anytime. I have a feeling his dad would approve of this errand too. Ha. 

{Sleepy’s Signature SUB-0°® Triple Cooling Pillow, Sleepy’s Signature Gel Memory Foam Pillow, Sleepy’s Deluxe Comfort Cool Pillow, Sleepy’s Deluxe Charcoal Cool Pillow}

{Sleepy’s Signature SUB-0°® Triple Cooling Pillow, Sleepy’s Signature Gel Memory Foam Pillow, Sleepy’s Deluxe Comfort Cool Pillow, Sleepy’s Deluxe Charcoal Cool Pillow}

These are the 4 different pillows I came home with! We’re having a hard time deciding which one we love best.

{Sleepy’s Signature SUB-0°® Triple Cooling Pillow }

If you order on-line your pillow will come packaged like this but as soon as you pull it out of the box..

{Sleepy’s Signature Gel Memory Foam Pillow}

This is Mattress Firm’s signature gel memory foam pillow. It’s more of a firm, supportive pillow and one side keeps you nice and cool while you sleep!

{Sleepy’s Signature SUB-0°® Triple Cooling Pillow}

This signature cooling pillow is also so good! Just enough firmness but also soft to sink into. I’ve been sleeping on this one lately and love it.

{Sleepy’s Deluxe Comfort Cool Pillow}

This pillow is another great option that comes in both soft and firm. It has a cooling feature too and doesn’t flatten!

{Sleepy’s Deluxe Charcoal Cool Pillow}

Last but not least is this deluxe charcoal cool pillow. You really sink into this one! Nice and cool also and you can take the covers off and toss them in the washing machine.

A view from the top! The charcoal draws heat, moisture and odors away. So many fun options to try! I’ll let you know my favorite in a month or so.

Thank you to Mattress Firm for helping us enjoy a good night’s sleep!

And thanks to Kole for keeping life interesting. :)

{utensil caddy}

Happy Sunday! I hope you had a great 4th and your week is off to a good start! We spent last week in Deer Valley celebrating my parent’s 50th wedding anniversary and had such a fun week. Headed home on July 3rd and we had friends over on the 4th to celebrate. We have been on the go non-stop since my kids got out of school and it feels so good to be home! I’m really looking forward to this week! I have so much to share and catch up on! As soon as I tackle ALL the laundry. Ha.

{USA letters/drink caddy}

A few pics from our 4th! These USA letters were so cute to hold our holiday pretzel hugs!

{serving platter}

I didn’t have time to take pics of much of the food but got a shot of these cute appetizers! They were a hit with the kids.

{Faux Stems}

I picked up this cute bundt cake too and love the flower on top!

{Round Chargers / Similar Striped Napkins / Similar Gingham Plates / Americana Salad Plates / Similar Flatware}

Pulled out my favorite 4th plates and we were ready to party. :)

It was a great day with friends enjoying food and the pool! We spent Saturday unpacking and getting groceries and just catching up on so many things. Good-bye June and hello July! Summer always goes by too quickly. I’m so happy we have one more month to enjoy some sun at home before things get busy with a new school year!

I hope your week is off to a good start! Sharing a few pics from the weekend party we hosted along with some recent Walmart deals I scored on major sale. (Love their summer Rollbacks!)

Our backyard was in need of a major clean up so as soon as we got back from our Europe trip I moved all of the furniture out into the yard and got to work!

I should say “we” got to work since I put Kole on cushion washing duty while I swept. :) (Details on how we clean our outdoor cushions here.) 

The next day everything was dry and so clean! I sprayed off and scrubbed our umbrellas and pool lounge chairs too (they are always dusty with cobwebs when we haven’t used them in a while). A lot of work but it always feels so good to have the yard clean and ready for summer!

{Willow Sage Outdoor Wicker Chair}

The party we hosted for my husband’s firm is one we will host for the next few years and I knew we would need more seating so I have been watching Walmart’s website to see what matching furniture I could add. (You know how much I love this Better Homes and Gardens line!) I saw these Wicker chairs a while ago and love them so when I checked again and they were on sale I ordered two so quickly! This furniture line always sells out. Kenny put the chairs together for me (easy set up) and we are thrilled with them. They are so comfortable and I love the look! I’ll add a pillow on each at some point!

{Planter Pots}

I also ordered two of these beautiful white planter pots. I wanted to order these last year and they sold out before I got the chance. Love the fluted design and they look a lot more expensive than they are! I was so happy to see them back in stock again.

I picked up these hydrangeas to set inside and love this look so much. So beautiful right!? Fingers crossed I can keep them alive!

{Willow Sage Outdoor Wicker Chair/Planter Pots}

Ready for the party!

{mattress topper/similar mattress topper}

I took advantage of Walmart’s deals and also ordered a mattress topper to try. We slept on it last night and I felt like I was sleeping on a cloud! How have we never used one before!? Highly recommend!

{white bathroom rug/XL bath towels}

I ordered this soft bathroom rug for my girls’ bathroom. Such a good deal and it comes in 3 sizes and other colors! This is the largest size. I also ordered some XL bath towels (we like this brand)..

{pack of 6 hand towels}

and another pack of 6 hand towels. I love these hand towels for bathrooms and they are such a good deal right now. They also come in a variety of colors. I’ve been slowly switching most of our bath/hand towels over to white because I love the look and it makes laundry easier.

{large food storage container/set of food storage containers}

My beloved large food storage containers are on sale!

{narrow storage bins}

So are the narrow storage bins I use to hold things like yogurt, protein shakes, miscellaneous items, etc. They are great in offices and closets too! So many ways to use these bins and I love that they stack on top of each other.

Back to the party.. here are a few pics!

Pizza oven arrived! They camped out front and brought pizzas to the back.

SO good!

The chairs were a hit!

So was the ice cream. :)

I think (hope!) everyone had a good time!

Such a fun night and I’m excited for more time with friends this summer!

Below are a few more Walmart home deals! All so good! I’m sorry and you’re welcome. ;)
