Anyway, I'm linking up with Darci at the good life blog for 5 on Friday again this week. Here's a little of what's been going on around here lately along with a few of my favorite finds from the week!
On Tuesday morning, I got to go see a movie with my sister and Vanna. It's things like this that I will miss so much when school starts in just a couple of weeks! If you're in Birmingham and have kids, you should really check out Carmike Cinemas in Lee Branch. They do a movie for kids every Tuesday morning and it's only $4 {even for adults}! It includes a little tray with popcorn, fruit snacks, and a drink, too! Vanna was so cute carrying her little popcorn tray. She's growing up way too fast!

So do y'all remember how I talked about how I've been obsessing over what kind of cheesecake I'm going to order when Daniel and I go to The Cheesecake Factory for our annual "back to school" date? Well, do I have some good news for you {and me}! Looks like I'm going to get to go twice because next Tuesday, July 30th is National Cheesecake Day {what a wonderful day!} and The Cheesecake Factory is celebrating by offering any slice of cheesecake at half price!!! It's true! Squeal! We'll be there, for sure! Looks like I'll get to try two of these! :)

So I was doing laundry this week and I found the coolest tip for folding t-shirts. It is so speedy! I actually had fun while folding about 15 of Daniel's white t-shirts. It was like a little game! I know, that's a little strange, but if I can make folding laundry more fun, I'm all for it! A neat stack of uniformly folded t-shirts makes me happy! Anyway, here's the video. I only had to watch it twice {with a few pauses here and there} before I had it down pat!
And speaking of laundry, I am definitely guilty of doing this {especially during the school year}!

Daniel and I went to the school on Tuesday night so he could help me do a lot of the heavy lifting stuff. I had to move my classroom this year so getting ready for the school year is going to take a lot more work. This is what we walked into.
And don't forget about the closet. I'm tempted to just keep the door closed and forget about it. Oh wait, I'll probably need some of that stuff. Anyway, we actually got a lot done in just a few hours. I'll probably head back for a couple of days next week and then *try* to forget about school for the last week and a half. Here's what the classroom looked like when we left.
Five.
And here's a little bit of weekend humor for you...a lovely collection of engagement photos that will make you happy you're single. You're welcome.
Whatever you end up doing this weekend, I hope you have a wonderful one!! :)
