Last Friday night I got to spend a night out on a farm! It sounds totally Iowa, but it was so cool to learn about agriculture in our state! We got to see how they work with their beef cattle and see their fields and crops! It was super cool! 
This post is in collaboration with Alex + Abby. All opinions are my own.

So a month or so ago, a friend texted me asking if I would run a 5k with her in October. If you know me, you know I am NOT a running. Some people can go out and run a 5k without thinking about it. I could barely run two minutes straight without a struggle. Many years ago I tried out the Couch to 5K running plan and failed miserably, but this time I figured I could give it a try again. I have an accountability partner. I have an end goal. And I really wanted to do it.


When I run, I HAVE to wear leggings. I like the compression feeling and support on my legs and I love that there's no bunching between my legs. These are the Advantage Capri Leggings from Alex + Abby. and I love the thickness of the fabric, the quality of the seams, and that they have a zipped pocket on the back waist to hold things you don't want to fall out while you run like keys or a card. I got plain black, but they also come in some fun options with contrast stitching and different colors.

Russ and I had a short little date on Saturday night! We went to a ceviche bar and snagged some ice cream sandwiches after. We also found a fun purple wall to snap an outfit photo at!





Have you tried faux leather leggings? I'm styling them casually for you today!

Our neighbor a couple houses down have two sons who are out of college. This past weekend one of the sons brought over three huge boxes of old toys for our boys to have. It felt like it was the scene from the end of Toy Story 3! Calvin is obsessed with Transformers lately, and they gave us a ton of those!

The boys went camping Friday night. I went to the site, helped set up, stayed for a hot dog, then went home to our house! They had a blast and I got a little camping taste and some rest! A win-win in my  book!







Summer got busy with all our travels, so I missed out posting my July Amazon Finds, so today I'm sharing both July and August's purchases!
