Today is a very special Friday because it’s the day before my sister and Ross’ wedding! Their rehearsal kicks off at 2 p.m. but we have a lot of little odds and ends to tie up this morning. It’s excited chaos around here!
After this post goes up, I’m planning to unplug and fully immerse myself in the wedding weekend. Relatives began arriving two days ago and I’m really looking forward to lots of quality time with family and friends.
And congratulations again to Leslie and Ross!!!
Now here is your usual Things I’m Loving Friday feature…
Things I’m Loving Friday
- Leslie and Ross
I’m pretty sure 99 percent of you predicted this would make my list this morning, huh? Well, it’s true! The thing I’m loving most this week is everything surrounding my sister and Ross and their special day. They are one heck of a fabulous couple and I hope this weekend is absolutely perfect for them.
- Card Case
Whenever I travel, I never bring my wallet with me. I always use a card case! I bought my card case back in college (it’s very similar to this one) and have loved its small size and wonderful portability ever since. It fits in any purse (even the tiniest clutches) and holds several credit cards and my ID without a problem. Since I know I’ll be using a variety of purses this weekend, I packed my card case in place of my wallet so I don’t have to worry about emptying my wallet into a smaller purse when I need to at some point. It’s a small thing that helps me streamline travel a bit! (I prefer metal card holders that make it easy to quickly pop open the case to grab a credit card. I think this $10 case is super cute and classy!)
Thank you so much to so many of you for tagging me on Instagram and Twitter! I love seeing your workout and yummy food pics whenever you try something you’ve seen on this blog. It makes me smile and I truly appreciate it!
I think dogs are the best animals on the planet and found this article quite interesting, especially the fact about their “vocabulary.”
My parents’ place is overflowing with this granola right now since it is going to be used as part of Leslie and Ross’ wedding favors. I haven’t been able to stop snacking on the leftover granola. It’s so darn good!

I made your Chickpea salad recipe this morning. I tasted it before I packed my lunch, so yummy! Can’t wait until lunch! Happy Wedding Weekend!
I am SO excited for Ross & Leslie! They are such a cute couple <3 Have a wonderful wedding weekend!
Also, that card case is genius! I must look into that!
Congratulations Leslie and Ross! Hope it’s a wonderful wedding weekend!
I love the idea of the card case. I have a soft case I used to carry my grad school ID and license in when I was on campus, but never thought about the benefits of a hard case. I’ll have to check that out!
So exciting! I can’t believe the day they get married is almost finally here! Enjoy the weekend!
So excited to hear about the wedding and see pictures!
Congrats to Leslie & Ross! I hope you all have a great weekend, can’t wait for the recap!

I tried your favorite NTC workout this morning, Razor Sharp. I hadn’t done that one yet. I can tell I’m going to be so sore tomorrow. I’m having major muscle fatigue right now. Best/worst feeling ever!
I can’t believe it’s already their wedding, I feel like they just got engaged! Have an amazing weekend!

Your latest treadmill workout!! Oh my God!!! The thing is that I didn’t remembered that from 6.0 mph the next one was 6.5 mph, and instead I went to 7.0 then 7.5. Sweaty mess at the end! But enjoyed it completely!
Have a GREAT time unplugging for your sister’s wedding. I can only imagine how magical it is going to be!!!
Ah! The big day is here. So excited for Leslie and Ross. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

I bought a “metal card case” online and when it arrived in the mail I showed it to my boyfriend. He told me “that’s a cigarette case…” lol I still use it to keep my cards in, whatevs :p
I’m loving that it is friday!!! I have three days off this weekend! Love homemade granola!!
Happy Wedding Weekend! Can’t wait to hear all about it!

What a great idea to use the card case! Though, maybe proof I need to buy another one because mine is stuffed with business cards… 😉
I’m loving that I get to go home tomorrow and celebrate my little brother’s 18th birthday! I’m so loving that I dominated my long run yesterday!

You mentioned one time that you love going to weddings even more now that you are married because they remind you of how happy you were on your wedding day.. and I couldn’t agree me! I am SO excited for wedding season to start! We have 5 this year, but the first one isn’t until June.
Weddings are so exciting!! Have fun this weekend 🙂
I have that exact treadmill workout written down so the next time I’m on the treadmill at the gym in the complex of our building, I’m doing it. I’m kinda scared lol.
