It’s time for another Thursday Thoughts! If you want to participate, but have no idea what a link-up is, you can check out my explanation of it here.

~Happy Thursday!  School just got out a week ago and already all my days are running together.  It might be because B isn’t here and coming home from work on the weeknights, but we need to get in a routine around here!  Speaking of B, we’ve Facetimed with him a few times and OMG it’s hysterical.  WB screams with excitement when he hears his voice and the L catches him up on everything he’s been missing here.  L has also been texting him, which is highly entertaining.

~I still have so many subscription boxes I am expecting this week! I am waiting on Phone Case of the MonthThe Bride BoxPupBoxCitrus Lanebluum, Escape Monthly, Luxe Lacquers, Lip Factory and I’ll have a surprise or two coming as well I am sure ;).  I got a TON of mail on Monday and then Tuesday?  Nothing.  Wednesday?  One box.  I am sure today will be crazy to make up for the last two days!

Monday’s Boxes

~I’ve been using my turkish towels from PopSugar and I decided to go ahead and order hand towels (I bought them from turkish-t) for my bathroom.  I think turkish towels are my latest obsession and I am planning to switch us over to them for the summer at least.  Once I settle on my favorite brands I want to pick up a few for scarves as well!

~Have you taken BuzzFeed quiz “Can We Guess Your Real Age“?  I took it last night and am quite pleased that I got 29.  I am actually nearly 8 years older than that, but I feel like I am 29, so I think that’s all that matters right??  Take it and let me know what you get!

Yep. You got it BuzzFeed. 29.

~The winners of the 5,000 Likes Giveaway have been selected, verified and notified and have all responded! Congrats to Shannon Aman who won the Tieks, Callie Cooke who won the Erin Condren prize pack, Amanda Sakovitz who won the 3-month PopSugar subscription, Sheena who won the Lush Gift Set and Lindsay Toews who won The Crispery Crispy Cakes! Congrats ladies!  I hope you enjoy your prizes!

~I know we weren’t alone on this, but we had some crazy weather here yesterday!  After L’s swimming class we hit up Target (I am on a hunt for some oatmeal that is being discontinued for my SIL who loves it) and snapped this picture in the parking lot.  I usually take my time in Target because I love it so much, but we were hustling yesterday because I was scared the power would go out and I wouldn’t be able to get my stuff!

Rains coming!

~My friend Kara (who has a blog she should be updating) posted about this yesterday on Facebook, but did you hear that Juicy Couture was closing up shop?  OMG I was distraught!  I feel like it’s the end of an era. I used to obsess over Jessica Simpson’s juicy outfits on Newlyweds.  I do have about 20 pairs (maybe more) of Juicy pants I have accumulated over the years so that should hold me over for a while, but they will be missed!  I will now only have Lululemon to shop for $90 sweatpants.  RIP Juicy!

~Our Disney Magic Bands came this week!  Pretty sure that L and I want to start wearing ours right now!  I was worried WB’s would be way too big, but of course Disney is one step ahead of me and has created the bands so that you can peel away part and make it fit little kids.  I swear they think of everything.

Love them!

~I think I have found a DIY project that will both help make my bedroom (well my closet) look cuter and also make be better organized.  We have a walk-in closet in our bedroom, but only the back wall and right side have “stuff” on them.  The other wall is just that.  Wall.  It’s too narrow in there to have racks or drawers or anything, but it is totally usable wall space.  I have some jewelry hung up there on hooks now, but I want to revamp it into something cuter and something that would hold more stuff.  Maybe using cutlery trays or frames?  I need to do some more Pinteresting, but this is happening!
