This Week’s Fave Fall Preview

Fall Colored Flowers

Yesterday, I went to our local farmers market and I couldn’t resist bringing home some fall colored flowers. I love they way they brighten the room and make it feel like my favorite season.

This Week’s Fave Activity

Morning Beach Walks

I haven’t been on my morning beach walks for almost a month, but the other day I was just feeling overwhelmed with stress and tough things happening in life and I needed to get away. This is my favorite spot to take a deep breath and center myself back on God. You can’t help but take one look at the mighty power and vastness of the ocean and think – the God who made that it certainly able to get me though whatever problems I have right now. Balance restored. Plus, living near the coast, our summers are usually gray and foggy. Once September arrives the fog is lifted and we have sunny days again.

This Week’s Fave Listen

Rosary Army’s Audio Rosary

One of my goals this month was to more often turn off the TV or music playlist and pray the rosary instead. Sometimes, I pray in our local chapel and sometimes I pray while I’m doing laundry and dishes. When I can’t keep track of the rosary, I like to listen to an audio rosary. The old one I used to listen to no longer works so I was looking for a new version. I was excited to find the Rosary Army App. I’ve long been fans of Greg and Jennifer Willits and their work with the Rosary Army. I tried their rosary app and love it. All the mysteries are available. There is a page with the prayers in writing – I use this during our school rosary group for those parents who are unfamiliar with all the prayers. There’s even a page with pictures of the mystery for visual inspiration. It’s great and I use quite often.

This Week’s Fave Accessory

Marian Bandana from Be A Heart

Anyone familiar with Blessed Is She, most likely is also familiar of the beautiful artwork of Erica Tighe. She designed the amazing planners, journals, prints and more. She has a company called Be A Heart and she is selling these adorable Marian Bandanas. It is made of 100% cotton and is 22in x 22in.

And if you know me, you also know that I wear bandanas as scarves in my hair all the time. I got one for my bday and I love it! It can be used as a scarf, kerchief or handbag tie, to name a few ideas.Get one before they sell out. πŸ™‚

This Week’s Fave Bracelets

RosaryCreation.com Bracelet

Speaking of my birthday, when Brian asked me what I wanted, I told him that I’d love a “gift card” to purchase something at the SCRC Conference we were attending the following week.

One of my favorite vendors table was from RosaryCreation.com who sold beautiful items such as rosaries and jewelry.

I love beaded bracelets and bought these three – a navy, a multicolored and a double wrap pink one.Β  I’m thinking of special ordering the multicolored beads in a double wrap bracelet. They’re so pretty!

This Week’s Fave Netflix Binge

Kim’s Convenience

The other day I was looking for a new comedy that I could binge watch as I did housework (after my rosary πŸ˜‰ ). I found Kim’s Convenience and thought it not only hilarious but heartfelt. Netflix describes it as such: “While running a convenience store in Toronto, members of a Korean-Canadian family deal with customers, each other and the evolving world around them.” There is some TV-14 humor, but nothing explicit. It’s a lot of fun.

This Week’s Fave Weekend Activity

Movie Date with My Son

With four kids, we often enjoying doing things as a family but just as I need time alone with Brian, I think it’s good for the kids to have time alone with me. It can be as simple as going to the market together or taking a walk. It’s easier to do that with my younger boys, but as my oldest boy enters the pre-teen years, it’s a little more challenging. When I saw the preview for Alpha, I knew this would be a movie Andrew would enjoy and being rated PG-13, it was something we could do without his brothers. So this afternoon, we’ll be having some mom and son bonding over popcorn, peanut M&M’s and movie viewing.

Okay, that’s it for now!

Those are my favorites of the week! What have you been enjoying?

Have a great weekend!
