We survived another work week!! And today is the first official day of Summer!!! Happy Summer all! Also, just a little PSA, but you can get a free ice cream cone (plain or dipped) at Dairy Queen today!!!

Let's get right onto Friday favorites and happenings.

ONE. What did we get Rory for Father's Day? We got him a golf polo. And we also got him golf stuff for his birthday. He has been telling me how much he wants some Travis Mathews gear. He says it is like the Lululemon of golf apparel. So I did some research and got him the Zinna Polo. He LOVES it.

TWO. After seeing a stomp rocket on Lindsay's blog several times, I finally bit the bullet and bought the girls one. Plus Rory and I can use this too. We got the duel one, so that we can compete with each other and so the girls can do it at the same time. This one gets amazing reviews and is only $19.99 right now.

THREE. So our beach days are ramping up. And that means that I needed a new hat. I have wanted one of those wide brimmed "do not disturb" or a fun saying hat, but I just never bought one. Then I saw another blogger post about this hat. It has spf 50+, is a wider brimmed fedora and the hat adjusts to your head. So I scooped it up and I am wearing it to the beach this weekend!

FOUR. When we were in Graeagle a few weeks ago, my SIL made Paleo Whole 30 Barbacoa tacos and they were sooooo good. I got the recipe from her and I can't wait to try it out next week on my own. The great part....you can make it in your Instant Pot or Crock Pot. I am going to use my Instant Pot, but she did the crock pot way and it turned out really good.

FIVE. Funnies for the week.
 If only.

This had me laughing so much since I have twins and know those looks. Ha.

Have a great weekend!

  2. I've been thinking of getting a hat like that but hats usually look bad on me! We used to have stomp rockets - be careful they don't land on your roof!

    1. Haha. I was worried about them landing on our roof. We have been away from the house and watching for cars too. Ha. I think hats look awful on me, but since this one is adjustable, it is pretty cute.

    1. I had to get the dueling one and they almost fought over it until I said they could do it at the same time. Such a good choice.
