Five on Friday!

1 // I entered Brian and I's picture into a promotional event on Twitter, sponsored by Axe, and look who made it to the big screen in NEW YORK CITY!  Sorry, the picture isn't the best but look through that blur and that's me and the husband!   2 // I posted about Parental Love this week.  This is one of my dearest pictures from My Wedding Day.   3 // I worked more on researching items to help promote Mississippi Mrs. this week, and I'm excited to watch this little spot grow!    
 4 // The BAS boys (BAS is all their initials in case you are new here!) had their final games this week.  I'm sad to see it go.   I love watching their abilities at the different age levels.  Love me some basketball and BAS boys! [ Photo credit: Lindsey Jenkins ]  
 5 // Speaking of basketball, Blake's team WON.  It was an intense game from the start and I'm super proud of him and all he accomplished this season at Jericho Basketball!      

  I'm so glad this week is coming to an end.  It's seemed long to me, and COLD.  I am thinking that warm weather got lost somewhere.  This just proves even more that I do indeed to move to the Virgin Islands.  Or at least get a long, good vacation.  Valentine's is coming, husband.  *hint, hint.*   So, with it being Friday, I'm ready to head home and kick back in my pajamas and watch some TV and hoard some more Pinterest ideas.  I really have an addiction, I think.   Other than church, my only plans to leave the house are possibly a small shopping trip with my mother.  She has been sick this past week, so I'm not sure she will feel up to it or not.  However, if she does, I am planning on going comfy.  Below is my ideal outfit for this weekend.  And I think it's all actually clean and hung in the closet! Shocker!

 Do you have anything fun on your list for the weekend?  

Parental Love

If you follow me on Instagram, then you see this picture that I posted.    Shameless plug: If you don't follow me, you should be.  @mrskaylawhite  

  So today I wanted to talk about these cuties in the picture with Brian and myself.   We are extremely blessed to both still have our parents' married to each other and could take such a picture as this one.  In today's time, most of my friend's parents are split and even re-married.  I kind of thought I might marry into one of families one day.   Luckily, God saw that fear and led me into the White family.  Ken and Donna are still happily married after three amazing kids.  My parents, Larry and Kathy, are still happily married after three amazing kids as well.    God works in mysterious ways. :)   Brian and I both love these four people with such a big part of our hearst and hope that we can be half as amazing as parents' one day as we experienced growing up.  We both always knew we had a rock solid support team and enough love to carry us through any burden life passed our way.   This picture is one of my favorites from my wedding day.  I think it's so cute and has a sassy attitude with it. But for me, more than that, it is perfection.    Thank you to all of our parents' for all the love and support you have given Brian and myself thus far.  We love you dearly!  

February Goals

Well, we are into February, and I wanted to set some goals for myself and this blog. Spend more time away from my cell phone. Sure, as bloggers, we have this tendency to check our e-mail, and all forms of social media several times during the day.  And that's fine.  But where I notice I spend too much time is while I'm home with my husband.  I want my time to be enjoying my life with him instead of starting at my cell phone screen.  So I'm going to limit myself.   Start a new cleaning routine. My house isn't "messy" of "dirty" by most people's standards, but I'm not most people.  I'm OCD and there are some areas of my house I want to work on doing more organization and cleaning inside.   Cook more. Brian and I eat out a lot.  We are blessed to have parents' who like to take us out and feed us so we don't actually cook a lot of meals at home.  But I would like to get back to basics and do more cooking for each other, like we did while dating. Work on my new business venture. Some of you know, and some do not.  I am starting to do wedding planning on the side.  I need to work on promoting myself and getting my name out there. Spend more time with Him. I have loved the devotionals I took part in during the month of January, so I am looking forward to moving ahead with new ones.  I love my quiet time reading the Word.  It's a blessing for my soul. Do you have goals set? Keep up with them by linking up with these ladies like I am!
