Five Loves on Friday

{via}

Happy Friday, friends!  That's right, it's Five Loves time!  Let's do this! ...

One  //  Date Night!

My in-laws invited the girls to come out and stay with them on Friday which gave Jason and I a delightful, and of course, delicious, date night!

We used a bogo entree coupon from Ruby Tuesday to throw a party for our taste buds!  We got our order Tue-go and cozied up for a fantastic couple's night in! 

Thai Phoon Shrimp // Triple Prime Smokehouse Burger // Cajan Jambalaya Pasta // Ultimate Chocolate Cake 

Date night is always a great night!  We laughed, lounged, and loved every bit of our refreshing one on one time together!  

Two  //  Gathering with Family

Saturday evening we headed out to Jason's parents' place to pick up the girls and enjoy an evening of family time.  We were greeted by my grill master father-in-law asking how we'd like our steaks and the sweet sight of our the girls playing with their cousins in the yard.  What a lovely way to start a night!  

My in-laws have made several updates to their home since our last visit, each of which turned out beautifully!  My mother-in-law has such fantastic style, an eye for a bargain, and is super skilled with DIY projects.  It was wonderful to see how well everything had come together!  

Before long, those perfectly grilled steaks hit the table and we gathered around to enjoy the scrumptious spread before us and our fabulous family beside us.

The only thing that rivaled the meal for the best part of the night was having the chance to sit outside with my mother-in-law and catch up in the peaceful setting of a cool, clear evening in the countryside!  It was a beautiful evening together!

Three  //  Lunching at the Lake

Now that spring has sprung I can't resist the pull of spending as much free time as possible at the lake!  Saturday and Sunday were cold and breezy, but that didn't stop us from (in-car) picnicking by the water both days!  

Four  //  Family Movie Night!

As you may have noticed my family is a bit (okay, A LOT) Star Wars obsessed!  So, we had an excellent excuse to order pizza and pop some popcorn this week!  Speaking of Star Wars, have you seen the Rogue One teaser trailer that was released yesterday?  Looks like it's gonna be a good one!

Five  //  Walmart Spring Beauty Box

I love a good subscription box and my Walmart Spring Beauty Box was just that!  If you haven't heard about Walmart's beauty boxes, they offer a seasonal subscription for $5/box.  They include several sample sizes (or as I like to think of it "purse-sized" items),  typically one full size product such as lipstick or nail polish, and a few coupons.  For $5 I was really happy to receive so many items that I'll actually use!  Plus, sunscreen leads my thoughts to summer which always puts a smile on my face!

Thank you so much for stopping by today!  Wishing you a beautiful upcoming weekend!
