Things I {HEART} Right Now

My friend did this on her post a few weeks ago and I've been meaning to do one myself. So here are the things I'm really loving right now:

My backyard ...
With all the rain we've gotten it's so green and pretty right now. Having this view makes all the hours of weeding worth it (and I do mean hours because that seems to be all I do these days, weed! But it's starting to look good). Of course, this may soon be on the list of things I hate in a couple weeks once it's all dead and dry from lack of rain & water. But for now I love it.



Flip-flops from Old Navy ...
At 2 for $5 you really can have one in every color of the rainbow (I will soon *smile*)



We have 2 sets of these and the kids and I love making smoothie popsicles. Our fave flavor so far: Frozen vanilla yogurt with Orange Juice. Second is the strawberry, banana, spinach smoothie. So good and the kids don't even know the spinach is in there. I love it! These are consumed on a daily basis in our house.

Strawberries ...
I just love fresh strawberries.


Vanilla Mint Chapstick ...
this is a staple in my life. I have one in every bag, drawer, and car. Can't live without it.


J.R. Watkins lotions & creme ...
This stuff is the best for chapped hands. Non-greasy and smells oh so delish!

So I might have to get the recipes for the smoothie popsicles...and it looks like a trip to Ikea is in order for me in the next couple of days. These are the perfect treats for the boys after dinner (much better to bribe them with that than anything else, right?). I'm jealous you can keep chapstick around...my boys consume (literally) all of mine, so I've taken to hiding it where they can't find it.
