Hello, friends! I hope all of you are looking forward to the weekend as much as I am. My dad and sister are coming for a visit, and John and I both have Monday off. Good times! I think we have plans to head up Cavanal again this weekend. My sister has never made the trip with us, and she’s ready to give it a go!
Today because it’s Thursday and it’s an all over the place kind of day, I’m going to do an addition of Thursday Thoughts. Here we go!
1. I felt like it was Christmas all over again this week went I found this in the mailbox on Monday. I really look forward to this every month. Backpacker is my dream magazine to write for. Backpacker, call me!
2. It’s looking more and more like a big change is going to be happening for John and I in the next few months, and I’m beginning to get excited about it! Sorry to be vague, but I’ll let you know as soon as I can!
3. I’m in love. That’s all there is to it.
4. Does anyone have any hair growth tips? I’d really like to see if I could grow mine a little longer, but it seems as if I have one spot that my hair gets to and it won’t grow any further.
5. Have you guys checked out the latest information on the Blend Retreat coming up in May? I want to go desperately!
6. I’m finally reading another Young Adult novel after quite a bit of time away. We picked Divergent for our book club at school this month. It has completely sucked me in already.
7. You know I’m a quotes girl, and I thought that, since we bloggers tend to love food a little more than the norm, you all would appreciate this one.
8. Remember how I said my goal for Boot Camp this week was to do one set of scorpions without the modification? Epic fail! Those things are so hard!
9. I’ll leave with something that always puts a smile on my face.
Have a great evening everyone!
Have you read Divergent? Are you going to Blend Retreat?






I have the Daily Puppy app on my iPhone–cutest thing ever!
I need to remember to look at the site more often. It’s so adorable! Perhaps if I would join the 21st century and get a smart phone like everyone else then I could have an app too!
What an adorable dog! He legitimately looks like he is smiling for the camera. I hadn’t heard of the Blend Retreat until last week, but it looks amazing. I am going to see if I can figure out a way to get out to it!
I really want to go as well. The husband and I are going to have to have a talk about it!
So this sounds crazy but I swear my hair got thicker and longer when I used the Mane and Tail shampoo and conditioner. I know it sounds crazy and there is a picture of a horse on it, but I swear it works.
I’ve actually heard that too. I need to give that one a try!
I absolutely LOVED Divergent!!! Actually, probably going to re-read it soon.
Make sure thatwhen you’re done you read Insurgent as well.
I’ve already got the library copy pulled back for myself!
Love that Julia quote. She always speaks the truth
My hairdresser recommended taking biotin to help hair grow faster and stronger. I can never remember to take it regularly but have noticed some improvement!
I’ll have to try that. My hair is already pretty long, bu i’ve always wanted to see if I could get it just a bit longer.
What an adorable puppy! He looks so happy! I hadn’t heard about Blend but after looking at their website I’m definitely going to see if I can get enough PTO to go! Sounds like so much fun! And I love Chobani
I know! I love him! Blend looks amazing. If not this year, than next year for sure!
Gaaaah, that puppy!! SO CUTE! Look at that adorable little muppet face!!!!!
Isn’t he awesome?!!? I really think Max needs a friend
I read Divergent a few months ago…I thought it was pretty good! Definitely sucks you in. I still need to read the others in the series!
I’ve heard really good things about it, and I always like those dystopia novels.
Obsessed with puppy love and the food quote — great way to start my Friday
Glad I could help
You will LOVE divergent.
And I really like that Julia Child quote. So true.
I think it is
So far, Divergent is great! I love the kind of books that pull you in because you can just feel that they’re building to something huge!
Love that puppy quote. Totally agree with the Julia quote!!!!!
I think the Julia quote is spot on!
Divergent is on my reading list (along with every other book in the world!) Love that Julia Child quote – so true!
It’s really good so far! I can’t put it down!
So funny, when I read this the other day, I had never heard of Divergent. Then yesterday, my son asks to go to the bookstore to get it!
Thanks to you I knew exactly what he was talking about. You helped out my cool factor a little bit!
Awesome! I’m assuming you have to take the cool points where you can get them as a mom! Is he liking it? I loved it! I’m posting a review today, and I’m already halfway through the second book!
