Five on Friday!

Happy Friday!!!

1. I was in Target yesterday, and they are having some great sales on clothes!! All dresses and swimsuits are buy one, get one 50% off (plus dresses are an extra 20% off with the Cartwheel app!), so I got a few new things for Vegas! 

I got this dress (plus another one I couldn't find online...its another strapless maxi, with black and white palm trees!)

...and this swim suit!

I also got some yoga capris for $10! Yay for Target!!!

2. We have been having so much fun with #ellasweekoflilly on Instagram!! Here are a few of my favorite outtakes:

Be sure to follow all the fun on Instagram! {@fergmindy}

3. Ella made her first little craft at the YMCA this week! 

Sorry, I can't get the picture to turn! But its an ice cream cone....not exactly sure how Ella herself "made" it (I'm thinking she screamed hysterically while the sweet teachers held her and glued on the different parts?), but I still love it nonetheless! 

4. I wanted to share 2 yummy recipes I've made recently!

First, I made this for dinner last night, and it fit ALL of my criteria: super easy, less than 15 minutes, and Trav approved (and he doesn't even like shrimp! but he went back for seconds...and thirds!)

And then, we went to a cookout last weekend and I brought along these cookies! I know I've posted the recipe for these before, but they are always a big hit, so I wanted to share again!

5. Last night, Ella and I met up with Kathryn at the new Amelie's in South Charlotte! 

I got Ella a strawberry tart...I figured she would just eat the "straw-straws" off the top, and not be interested in the rest. Instead, she LOVED the custard and crust, and threw the strawberries on the floor! 

They also had this fab Mona Lisa poster, that of course we made Ella pose with (although it was quite a struggle between her kicking the poster and me laughing)!

Ella also loved the woof woof...

...and the Eiffel Tower out front! Almost as good as going to Paris for real ;)

Have a great weekend!!!
