5 on Friday

Welcome to another addition of 5 on Friday. I fell asleep last night at 8:30. It was amazing! I woke up at 6am this morning ready to go. Apparently I needed some rest. I feel like a million dollars today. I am a little bummed I missed Grey's but will catch up on it Saturday while Justin works :) Leave me a comment if you link up on The Good Life Blog. Happy Friday!

 1. We are leaving for the beach in 12 days. I can not wait. Sunshine, 80 degree days, nothing on the agenda but yummy food, fishing for the hubs and relaxation!

All this picture needs in my beach chair.

2. After about a ear of car shopping I finally did it. I got rid of my Jeep and got a new Pilot. So far so good! It is much smoother and much more roomy than my Jeep. Although, I really do/did love my Jeep I am excited for 3rd row, blue tooth and more space!

3.  I need help!! I am having issues trying to figure out the best space for my living room! Anyone have any advice? Any websites or techniques? It is a weirdly shaped  area and I just can't figure out how to make the most room and most seating!

4. My FIL got me an Etsy gift card for Christmas.. I can't find what I want to spend my money on. I have found lots of ideas but nothing speaks the one! What are some of your favs on Etsy right now?

5. Thanks for all of your advice on manicures! I am going next Monday to get mine. I think I have decided on this ... (The first one). I will post pictures when it is done! 

5 on Friday

1. Do you watch How I Met Your Mother? Have you seen the spoiler thing going around Facebook? If that's true, I will be soooooo disappointed. This show has put me through enough of a roller coaster of emotions.  Only 4 more episodes! I feel like this show is a part of my life, these characters, the relationships... I know, I know I have a problem. I was this way with The Office too.

2.Have you ever heard of Oil Pulling? I haven't, but I am intrigued. If you have done this, have you had any benefits? Any concerns? I am going to order some coconut oil for some other uses and thought I may try it.
                                               

3. Last week the Hubs and I went to see Old Crow and The Avett Brothers. I love string music, fiddles, and harmonicas. I also love these two bands. But I love Country Roads more than all the above, so when both bands came out to end the show singing WV's favorite song... well my heart was happy.

4. The stomach bug hit our house last weekend, of course it did. My BFF from high school came to celebrate her 30th birthday and I couldn't get out of bed. I am still not feeling 100%. I am ready for spring. For cold and flu season to be done. For kiddos to get outside and not keep all the germs indoors. Spring is almost here. We were actually under a county wide state emergency last Sunday b/c of the snow.

5. Does anyone here watch Private Lives of Nashville Wives?  I grew up with one of the girls on the show and it is kind of neat to watch her now! Cassie was always one of the sweetest girls. It is more of a family housewives show, not so catty. If you haven't been watching, you really should. If you are watching, what do you think??
                           

5 on Friday....

1. Our house closing got pushed back to Friday. I am strangely OK with it - it doesn't change much, actually works out better for Justin's work schedule.

2. My best friend left for St. Maarten last Sunday. I miss her. She will be spending the next 21 months there for Med School. A little over 3 months till we visit her!

3. College Football has started...For those of you who know me, know how big of a deal this is! I have waited since January for college football to be back! WVU has a couple of easy games the first few games, but then...well... I am hoping for a miracle :)  .

And I am hoping this easy on the eyes guy does great at our QB

4. FALL is here. Need I show you more reason I am excited??








5. A few years back Kelly's Korner was doing a Your Team/Tailgate link up this time of year (4?? years ago)... I met this girl through that link up...Rebecca helped introduce Justin and I three years ago September 1st... So had it not been for football and blogs I would have never met my husband nor would have I made a great friend! So this time of year is extra special to me... Let's GOOOOOOO!!!

5 on Friday

1. I for one, love, Shark Week. I haven't been as years in the past about watching but one of our classrooms at school devoted this weeks to sharks (FYI I wanted to be either a teacher or marine biologist growing up) so I have been learning all kinds of new facts. One of the neatest things we have been looking at is the Live Shark Finder...it is really neat and I promise it won't disappoint... well at least science geeks like me will love it.





2. It is moving weekend. My house is in chaos, I am tired but the Uhaul comes tomorrow and movers will be there at 11. No rest this weekend :) I am totally ok with it though!! We have a little over a week in our current house, Shacking with friends for the rest of August and then our very first house. 

3. Speaking of house, our yard now has sod. Our house is the only house on the street with grass. Our neighbors are calling our house The Augusta - ha, I will take it. So will my OCD yard lovin' hubby.

If this is sideways, sorry - sometimes it shows up OK sometimes not

4. I am a TV  DVR junkie - I am excited for the new season of some of my favorite shows to come back on. Some of the ones I am most excited for - Modern Family, How I Met Your Mother, Mike and Molly, Big Bang Theory, Biggest Loser - Some of the ones I most excited to see Dads,  Friends with Better Lives, The Goldburgs, Michael J Fox Show, Mixoloogy, The Millers, Mom, Sean Saves the World, Super Fun Day, Trophy Wives, Undateable, Welcome to the Family and We are Men... just to name a few...
Now, I know that list looks long and it is...but half or 3/4 of these shows won't make it in our household past the first few minutes. TV shows have to be espically good, funny and quick humored to make it  - especially during Football season. I don't have a ton of extra TV time so I want to devote the time to something good. What are you excited for?

5. Football. It has started (preseason) and I am so excited. I am ready for some Mountaineer, Bengal, Rams football. Are you?

Five on Friday....

I am back for another fabulous 5 on Friday. Is it bad that I thought yesterday was Friday all day and was extremely disappointed at bedtime to find it was only Thursday. None the less I am excited for our Anniversary weekend and excited it is finally the weekend - well in 6.5 hours :)

1. It is our anniversary weekend :) I am excited for some quiet and relaxing time with the hubs. I would show you his gift but he reads the blog and I have kept it a secret this long! I did keep with the tradition and did something along the paper lines...

 2. With the upcoming move hanging over our heads and the house almost being done I have been doing a lot of pinning.  Dreaming of linen closets... Here are a few of my favs, share if you have any pinned you like...

                      
3. Our master bedroom is yellow and grey... Pinning has came in handy there too - (again please share your fav master bedroom pins)

   


4. I really want to do a gallery wall as well - do you have one in your house? Ideas, thoughts, suggestions? Here are a few of my favorites...





5. I didn't mean for this to turn into a Pinterest post, but it kinda did :) Oh well - I guess for #5 I will leave you with a few of my favorite new house ideas, totally random. If you are on Pinterest make sure to come find me, Cassiewvu,  I would love to see what you are into and making!

Drool over this closet


I need the hubs to build me this sewing table




We will have one of these at the new house :)

Five on Friday..

1. Our first wedding anniversary is next week.  We are also in the process of moving, packing up our house and watching the building process come to an end on our new home. I am excited to take a break, eat our cake and open our advice box and just take a minute to reconnect with each other :) 

Mr & Mrs

Our perfect but hot barn setting. 

Yep, I love Batman... I love it even more that Batman is my husband. 

2. Our new house...we have a closing date. I am not sure I am ready to put it out there yet, but if you our on Instagram, remember to follow us at #Mfamilymove

3. This weekend, this weekend is the last weekend of the year something isn't schedule. Just thinking about the rest of the year's schedule makes me a tad nervous. But at least we will be making memories. 

4. The weather has been fantastic the last 48 hours. It has been a breath of fresh air, literally, not to have 90+ degree heat in your face.

5. Friday, it is here! WHOHOOOOO. I have 64 minutes left in my work week. I am trying to talk hubs into some furniture shopping... Hear that babe.....
