Wrapping up the week

School officially began on Wednesday! Jack starts first grade and Avery starts fourth. Because of our move, they are attending a new school this year and are loving it so far! I’m heading to Ohio today with my two littlest for some much needed extended-family time. Catching up with cousins and aunts will be so fun. Seven hours in a car with a two and four year old? Not so much. Wish me luck.

Here are some links you may want to check out. //

A very touching tribute by Kathie Lee Gifford to her late husband.

Emily Freeman’s new book released this week! I loved meeting her at her sister’s home last year and am looking forward to reading her latest book.

Reese Witherspoon is starting a new lifestyle brand called Draper James. Everything has a really cute Southern feel.

I’m currently addicted to Fixer Upper and am getting lots of ideas for our new property. Chip and Joanna crack me up.
