For the past 11 weeks, I have done five snapshots from the week every Friday, but I decided to start a new series each Friday called Five Favorite Things From The Week. It will still be my favorite pictures, but other information may pop up too 🙂
1. We finished our porch swing! This weekend we are going to pick out a stain for it, but in the meantime, I have been out there every morning enjoying the sunrise. Our pergola is done too, now we just need to add lights to it. I will show you the finished product soon 🙂
2. Speaking of mornings, I have been loving my morning coffee outside. It is the only part of the day that is enjoyable, so I take advantage as often as I can.
3. This face! It kills me every single time. He is such a sweetheart!
4. I shared two posts this week that are so of my favorite ones that I have done so far, my garden over the years and Why I Love Lucy. Both of these have been in the works for awhile, so I was excited to finally get to share some personal things with you.
5. Last, I FINALLY found a place that offers Zumba in my town. I plan on going Monday, and I am so excited. I haven’t gone to a class since I moved to our house. I took yoga for years, but I am really looking forward to something more cardiovascular. I will let you know how it goes 🙂
How has your week been? What are your plans for the weekend?

Will look forward to how you like Zumba, I thought of taking a class too. Although everytime I say that, I end up backing out because I don’t like organized classes like that. I always feel silly trying to keep up.
I am the same way! I have been wanting to take Zumba for so long, but I’m not much of a class taker either. I used to dance in high school, so I think it will be okay. I will definitely let you know how it turns out 🙂
Happy Weekend Alexis!! Of course, I love the photos of Ruger! Did you and your husband make the swing? I’m so jealous as we don’t have a great place to put one but there is nothing better than sitting in a swing and watching the world!
Happy Weekend! We did make the swing…well my husband did most of the work 🙂 We didn’t have a good place to hang one, so we built a pergola first, then hung it from that. It turned out really great! I have been sitting there every morning and it is so wonderful to watch the sunrise from it! Have a wonderful day!
I’m obsessed with zumba and try to do it 3-4 times a week! So happy to find your blog through the linkup 🙂
I’m so excited to try it! I love taking classes, but haven’t been able to in awhile, so I am excited! Thanks so much for coming by and saying hi! Have a great day!
How exciting that your porch swing is finished!! Yay! Enjoy!!! Ruger is looking cute as always! 🙂 Wishing you both a very happy weekend ahead!! Off to catch up on your other posts! xo – Brenda // Chatting Over Chocolate
I am so excited we got it done too! I will post more pictures soon 🙂 Have an awesome weekend!
Happy Friday and pre-weekend Alexis! The porch swing looks fabulous, and that’s a great pic of you and your boy. I agree that a stain would look beautiful instead of paint. Looking forward the picture of the pergola and swing! I like your ACS mug – do you have any other of the elements? That’s one way to keep track of your mug/drink with multiple people… I’m excited for you and the Zumba class – getting your heart rate (and endorphins) revved up feels good! Go at your own speed… and enjoy! Have a fabulous weekend!
Happy Friday! We are picking out a stain today and I can’t wait to see how it turns out! I have elements 1, 2, and 3 🙂 But that is all so far! My favorite mug is organic structure of caffeine! 🙂 I am really excited to start Zumba…I will let you know how it goes 🙂 Have a wonderful weekend!
Hope zumba goes well. That’s one of my favorite workouts! Ruger is the cutest.
I love it too! So much fun and doesn’t feel like a workout at all 🙂 Can’t wait to go!
