Hey friends! I’m finally coming at you from a super busy week of getting my home ready for all our friends and family who are driving and flying in for one unforgettable weekend! When Zach and I first knew we were going to build our home, we also knew we wanted to host a really fun party to share our hard work, decision and love of our new place with everyone. They called our model home ‘the entertainment home’ because of how open it is and how the layout is truly perfect for hosting guests. It was what really made us fall in love with everything, as well as all the storage it held!
I wanted to share a few of my favorite things that I’ve been loving this week with you all ( some even on HUGE sale right now ) so I had to make sure I put it all in one easy post! These items even make great gifts too!
1. Barefoot Dreams Blanket – A friend of mine just shared with me that she purchased this blanket and was amazed at the quality, softness and overall feel of this blanket. I’m a sucker for anything cozy ( duh ) but wasn’t sure on the price point as it seemed a bit high for a blanket. However, I just saw that it’s actually 50% off right now! These make the perfect gift for birthdays, upcoming holidays ( aka Christmas! ) or even house warming gifts!
2. 1800 Contacts- I have had NO TIME to make an eye doctor appointment when I realized I ran out of my contacts a few weeks until I realized I didn’t have too thanks to this amazing company who not only allows you to take an eye exam from the comfort of your own home but also sends you your contacts with free shipping in days right to your door. I wrote my post HERE about it and if you’re interested in starting you own exam check out more info HERE.
3. Dr Pepper Meatballs – These meatballs are def going to be on the menu for our party tomorrow and I can’t wait to make them because they are seriously are so stinkin’ easy to do! Plus, I always have a few of my favorite pop on hand to make it even easier! One is never enough when it comes to this easy appetizer.
4. Parties – Okay well really not just the parties itself but the people that com to join you in celebration of such a big milestone like building a home. Stay tuned for Monday for a recap of our Halloween/House Warming party because I’m sure it’ll be a great one.
5. Comfortable #LBD – I received this adorable black dress from Tribal Fashion a few weeks ago and knew it was perfect for a wedding I was attending. The black dress has a tie in the front so it’s extremely flattering and so soft. The jacket was cozy and a perfect transition piece for fall/winter. I can’t wait to wear it again! See more on my instagram.
Sounds like you have had a busy week. Don’t want forget those contacts again. Enjoy you party
You listed some great things. I think I need that blanket! I could always use a cozy blanket. Have a great time at your party!
Dr. Pepper meatballs.
OH MY FREAKIN GOODNESS!!!! Sounds amazing!! Now I know what you're talking about with hearty meals during fall!!
It has really started getting cold here of late and hands up I am all for blankets this one sounds so cosy – I may just have to treat myself.
Cute dress and I love that blanket. I'm a blanket girl and have one in every chair when I relax.
I made meatballs with Dr Pepper a few times too. The added sweetness made the meatballs taste absolutely amazing!!
That blanket! I just spent a fortune on a hand knitted blanket for our sofa. This one looks so much softer.
I definitely need one of those blankets. You can never have enough blankets in the house, right?
I have so many blankets and I want more. These are awesome!
Anything from Barefoots is amazing, right? Will have to check out that meatballs recipe.
Loving that ombre jacket! It's a perfect fit for fall and super chic. Is it also from Tribal Fashion?
OMG! dr pepper meatballs?! I'm in heaven! I have to try those!
Oh wow Dr. Pepper meatballs sound so good. I can't wait to try those.
I've only had Dr Pepper once (it's hard to find in Aus), but I am SUPER intrigued by those meatballs! I wonder what other unique things you could add to meatballs..
Barefoot Dreams blankets (and robes! And cardigans!) are the BEST. And you found a great price!!!!! I might just need to add another one to my collection.
Those Dr. Pepper meatballs looks delicious! I have just taken out the blankets at the closet, the weather is getting cold these days.
I make meatballs similar to that (with Coke) and they are delicious. I'm loving that blanket too. Perfect for cold evenings.
Love me some DP, so I'll have to check out those meatballs. They look so good!
Those Dr. Pepper Meatballs look fantastic! I know my daughter would love them.
I’d always run out of contacts without 1800 Contacts. I love it and the app is great. I’ve been hearing SO MUCH about the Barefoot Dreams blanket. It’s on my Christmas list! Great roundup!
That looks like one of those blankets that if I saw it in person, I'd have to reach out and squeeze it. It looks so cozy!
Such a fully loaded week for you. I would love to try out the Dr. Pepper Meatballs! For sure my hubby would love it.
The blanket looks so cozy. I want to try the Dr Pepper meatballs, look so yummy!
Ooooh Dr. Pepper meatballs. It makes my heart happy (and my mouth) everytime I see them at a party.
That blanket looks gorgeous and comfy! I think I need one of those, for sure! And I've never heard of Dr. Pepper meatballs…intrigued!
That Barefoot Dreams blanket looks heavenly! I hear the hype is so real, definitely interested in getting one soon.
