I Love Me A FRIDAY!

It's finally Friday and it's a long holiday weekend!
I've already mentally checked out. That's it, I'm done with thinking. Work related duties are satisfied, I'm set there, ready for a new month and the home is looking good thanks to last weeks major clean sweep. I'm thinking we can squeeze in lots of fun this weekend!

1// Enjoy your Memorial Day weekend! I know we plan too :)
We thank all of you who serve, stand in line waiting to serve,  those that gave life to serve and of course all the families behind those that serve. Each amazing and definitely deserving of a some R&R this weekend!

2// My sister had her daughter on Thursday! I'm all sorts of distracted right now. Her son is staying with us so Landon and my nephew are playing like boys do and I'm super eager to get up to the hospital to give sweet kisses to my new niece and hug my dear sister! She's a strong and beautiful woman!!

3// The other night, Lucas made us all dinner which was way awesome and bought us some extra time that evening to just hang out and walk around the 'hood.

4// soooooo, this recipe actually worked! banana's, oatmeal and craisins @ 350 for 15 minutes. ehhh, it was only "kinda good" to me but Landon loved them!

5// I am more than ready to kick off this years pool season! Bring it sunblock and inflatables!


*Take a moment to reflect on the big and small things that make your week more beautiful.


I'm soaking up all the family time I can between now and our move... so excuse me for the rest of today and get to know Gayle! I've followed Gayle since the beginning of my blogging journey. We've emailed, tweeted, and insta'ed even attempted a workout plan together but quickly realized it really wasn't our speed. She's assured me and motivated me through a personal issue and is just all around super awesome!
She's an amazing blogger, delivering truth and inspiration in each post. Check her out!


Hello, Heart Shaped Sweat readers!  
I'm Gayle, and I blog over at Grace for Gayle.  :)  


I live in Dallas, TX with my four fur-kids, Monty & Twerp {the dogs}, and Brother & Sister {the cats}.  
It's a full house to say the least, but I love my little fur-balls and almost don't mind cleaning after them all of the time!  When I'm not blogging or vacuuming, you can find me at the gym, at church, reading a book, hanging out with friends, going to the pool {hiiiiii summmer, I have missed you!}, watching Netflix, spending time with God, and eating chips and salsa.  

I'd love to have you come visit and read and/or take part in #PerfectlyImperfect with us!  Don't know what it is?  Well, come check it out.  While you're there, be sure to map yourself and subscribe!  
Ciao for now!
