Friday Favorites



My sweet Mama is in town from California, so it's an extra happy Friday around here! First stop after the airport: Jeni's Ice Creams of course!



Followed by homemaking the Darkest Chocolate flavor from the Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams at Homecookbook. Find the recipe here. Spoiler alert: it's amaze.


I ordered these pint containers since we've been on our homemade ice cream kick, and they work perfectly for storing the ice cream! (Each recipe fills about two pint containers.)




Hello to my very first romper! It had to be documented. After months of being anti-romper (you know, the whole getting undressed in public restrooms thing), this one won me over. I'm in love. So much that I wore it out to date night, then three days later out to a Junior League event (I figured I wouldn't be seeing any of the same people, haha). 



For date night, Max and I took on the "omakase" menu at Yoshi Sushi (Japanese translation: I'll leave it up to you - basically chef's choice). It was seriously so much fun! Each of the fourteen courses was a surprise and was explained in detail. Favorites included the tuna belly nigiri and the smoked truffled yellowtail bowl (complete with the cloche that released the smoke at the table). But best of all was face time with husby of course! With work travel and a four-year-old running around, it was so nice to be able to concentrate on just each other!



My Junior League event was at a speak easy inside a local brewery, and it included a fundraiser featuring Kendra Scott (I mean, it had my name written all over it). I had been eyeing these statement earrings since they were released this summer, and it was the perfect opportunity to snag them! You know, supporting Junior League and all ;) 



It's a wrap on t-ball for the summer season! 


Parker had such a fun time playing on the Marlins team, and was thrilled to have Dada out on the field assisting coaching for all the games. 


And he adored batting! Though he says he is ready for real baseball, and does not want to hit off the tee anymore, haha. 


Little Man was so lucky to have Nana and Papa in town from Dallas and cheering him on for his last game!


Our little slugger!

Happy Friday!

  7. I love that Parker enjoyed baseball. Connor... not so much. I don't think he is a huge fan of hot humid sports.
