Happy Friday! Did this week drag on for anyone else?? Thank goodness the weekend is here! I am extra excited because two of my best girlfriends are coming into town and we are having ourselves a girls weekend in Chicago. We’re going to whoop it up Vicki Gunvalson style! I’m so pumped! I hope you all have a fabulous weekend too. Here is my Friday Five:
ONE | Of course the aforementioned GIRLS WEEKEND!! This is an annual tradition for my college girlfriends and we try to switch up where we meet every year since we don’t all live in the same city or even state for that matter. Last year we convened in Minneapolis at Erin’s house and this year we’re in Chicago! I can’t wait for them to arrive!
TWO | This week the fall temperatures finally arrived and dare I say I was even cold yesterday? I broke out my boots and tights this week and this will pretty much be my wardrobe for work for the next several months.
THREE | Last night I had my monthly dinner club with some of my friends from church. We had a wonderful fall meal with pork tenderloin, butternut squash, and apple pie for dessert! I love our little cooking club and our time around the table with each other.
FOUR | I tried the new Toasted Graham Latte from Starbucks this week. I was told by the barista it tasted like Cinnamon Toast Crunch but I didn’t really get that flavor from it. I thought it was good but it kind of just tasted like a vanilla latte to me. Have any of you tried it? What did you think?
FIVE | In case you missed my post on Monday, I shared pictures of a custom brick I ordered for Kevin as a surprise gift for our five year wedding anniversary. We got married on Purdue’s campus and our reception was in the press box of the football stadium. The brick was installed at the stadium with our wedding date and I think it will be really fun to visit for years to come. π
That’s it for today! Check back on Monday for a recap of our girls weekend!

I love girls trips, so I hope that you enjoy your time with your friends this weekend! I totally agree about the Toasted Graham Latte, I didn’t think that it had that super great of a flavor profile. I kept on expecting it to be sweeter.
Paige says
I agree! Especially since the guy working told me it tasted like Cinnamon Toast Crunch.
Lisa Loves John says
Yay for a girls weekend and whooping it up!! And I love that brick – such an awesome, lasting gift!
Paige says
Thanks!! I was pretty proud of that gift idea π
