What I'm Loving Right Now (5)

Can I just start by saying that I am loving summer? 
I taught ESY (summer school) the first 3 weeks of my "summer" so now it's actually, OFFICIALLY, summer for me!

On to "What I'm Loving Right Now"

THIS DRINK! It is so different and so good. It's Kombucha--which just sounds cool in and of itself but then you taste it and it's like this crazy drink explosion. I know, I sound silly, but it's something else! It has a lot of antioxidants and other fun things which make it a "healthier" drink choice. 
How I Met Your Mother--Jason and I are watching this show again and it's still just as hilarious the second time around. Marshall is hands down my favorite. Ted, ehhhh. I guess you have to have him though, right?

Laying out--really though--what's better than laying out in the sun and reading a good book with an ice cold drink? Not much! 

I'm also taking much better care of my skin this year by using my Rodan+Fields face moisturizer daily. It has SPF 20 in it and it. is. awesome. We have a good many other products to get/keep your skin "sun safe"--ejussely.myrandf.com 

We are headed on vacation this weekend to our first beach trip--The Father's Day weekend trip with Jason's family. I am SO EXCITED! (Our picture from last year)
These two songs right now are my jam:
I Won't Let You Go--James Morrison (weird video, great song)
Budapest--George Ezra (yet another strange video, but great song)

Jason and I have been on a walking kick. We've been taking 2-4 mile walks around the neighborhood each day and it's been so nice. I'm getting a lot of ideas for things I want to do to our house ;)

Speaking of, I am really digging the whole "flowers around the mailbox"thing--it's so fun and pretty. This may be my next project this summer.

La Croix--this drink is saving my life (dramatic, I know) but really. It's bubbly goodness satisfies my diet coke (really, any soft drink) cravings. You can find the nutritional facts here (it's actually not bad!) So far, the grapefruit is my favorite flavor. I've had Coconut and Lime as well--I plan to try them all though ;) Kroger had a 2 for $6 sale going on this week! 
Yard Work--I am so in to yard work these days--even though the rain is totally messing up (throwing around) my mulch. I actually LIKE cutting the grass and edging. I find myself WANTING to go outside and pull weeds (whaaaaat? I know). There's just something about that instant gratification of seeing your progress. 


Speaking of rain--these pictures of the sky after our summer thunderstorm last week takes my breath away. So beautiful. 


This girl passed her NCLEX! You can just call her Mary Claire Lyons, RN! 
Gourmet Popsicles--Guys, you have two options (I've only been to one of them) for places you can go to find these delicious treats:  
We were having a girls day Saturday and went to Ice Pop Culture--this cute little popsicle cart that sets up (usually) outside of the Capri Theater over on N. State Street. You can find them on Facebook and Instagram to find out their location for the day. 
We tried Strawberry Lemonade, Banana Buttermilk, and Peach Rosemary--all of which were amazing!
 Then, this new place, Deep South Pops just opened as well---I WILL be trying it out soon. 
Here's to summer!
