Friday Faves
Hey friends! Happy Friday! I hope youโve had a wonderful week. The kids have had a few half days in a row for school, so itโs been a little less on the productivity front, but Iโve been loving take them out to lunch, to the park, and on some extra adventures. Today, weโre meeting up with the Pilot at the air show. The rest of the weekend should be pretty chill. Weโre watching Harry Potter 6 (getting close!), heading to a friendโs house for dinner, and enjoying the beautiful Tucson weather. I hope you have a fun and relaxing weekend ahead, too!
Friday Faves 11.5
Some Halloween pics:
(We tried taking pics of the guinea pigs in their costumes, but it was a giant fail. Donutโs was too small on her – sheโs HUGE, like a furry football haha – and Cookie scampered out of her Wonder Woman costume in .2 seconds.)
Read, watch, listen:
This made me laugh so hard. We need a new dance movie!
Everyday ways we show kids we love them.
Why itโs important to prioritize happiness.
Iโm fascinated by the benefits of extreme temperatures, and this is an interesting study about the bodyโs ability to adapt and its effect on brown fat. (Iโm totally going to use our pool as a cold plunge once it gets a little chillier!)
Fitness + good eats:
Exciting news on the fitness front: Iโm going to be having a birthday promo next week on fitness plans! If youโre looking for something new – either to start now, or to save until the new year – stay tuned for more details. Itโs the first time Iโve ever done this, and Iโm excited to share some of my top fitness plans with you at a sweet 50% off discount.
Some weeknight dinner inspiration.
Try this dance cardio and strength combo!
Fashion + beauty:
Iโve been posting more items on my Poshmark (lots of athletic clothes) if you want to check it out here!
Sakara Beauty chocolates! Iโve raved about these on the blog before, and while I donโt know how *well* they work, I admit that they bring me a bit of joy each morning. (I love a little chocolate bite with my morning coffee!) Check them out here and my code XOGINAH gets you 20% off the Sakara site.
If youโve been wanting this cute Paige sweater, runnnnnnnnnnnn here! I got this in a recent Trunk Club and sent it back because of the price ($250). I instantly regretted it and decided to finally buy it. Itโs 65% off now! Here is the link – they still have quite a few sizes available. Itโs in pink here, too.
Happy Friday friends!

I noticed your very beautiful LV purse that you often carry- Iโm interested in treating myself to one for the my 40th birthday this year but it would be a huge spendy gift! I can afford it but have never bought a luxury bag before. Whatโs you take: worth it? I would love to hear your thoughts on it and if you could share a โwhatโs in my purseโ post. Iโm a Mom to a 7yo so way beyond the diaper phase but sometimes I am still her mama Sherpa and carry little things for her.
hi! I’m so sorry i wrote back to you in my brain and not in real life ๐
YES. so so worth it. i wear it almost every day and the quality is amazing. my tip would be to definitely go to the store so you can see them in person and try on different ones. the one i originally bought online wasn’t the right fit/style, so i ended up exchanging it in the store
Could you do a blog on your hair?!!! Gorgeous!!!
your shoes paired with the paige turtleneck? they look fabulous! where are they from?? thank you!
