Favorite blog moment of the week: I know I sound like a broken record, but I am still thrilled with the success of our 'Falling for Fall' linkup. It was so much fun reading everyone's favorites about fall, I'm now super excited for the fun fall festivities. Don't forget, the linkup is still live until the 30th. #thanksforplayingfriends.

Favorite cultural event of the week: Unless you live without a TV or social media you know the Pope was in America this week. DC was one of the stops on the Papal visit and it was pretty awesome having him in our city. Now, I did not have to deal with any of the road closures or huge crowds [many people were given leave to stay home, though] so all I saw were events on TV, which were pretty awesome. And, I'd like to think, no matter your religious affiliation it can be agreed the Pope's visit was an incredibly historical moment for our country and possibly for the future.
Love the funnies! Excited to participate in the link up next week, thanks for keeping it open till the 30th for us last birds ha!

OMG girl the video I'm balling right now! My nephew was in the nicu for 3 weeks and I will always have a special place in my heart for those nurses!!! Thank god for your funnies that brought it back for me and not crying lol! Have a great weekend :) xo, Biana -BlovedBoston
ReplyDeleteI love the quote, such a great reminder. And those funnies are too good! The girl playing hide and seek cracked me up haha. Happy Friday!
ReplyDeleteThat video is such a tear jerker! My friend's baby was born at 27 weeks so she was in the NICU for a LONG time and the nurses in there were so amazing. On a happier note, is it bad that that girl playing hide and seek was totally me when I was younger?! LOL! Happy Friday!

it's peanut butter jelly timeeee! hehe
ReplyDeleteone of my fave memories is seeing pope john paul's last mass in italy. i had no ticket. i just walked in. i felt like i was honoring my italian side.
hahahah i gotta say, kids are dumb but they're hilarious and adorable!! LOLOLOL
ReplyDeleteHaha love the pictures! I could read those all day (and may do just that). I grew up Catholic but only go to church for holidays, wedding and funerals right now, but I get teary-eyed every time I see the Pope on tv. I know the Catholic church has its faults (which is why we don't go anymore), but come on...it's the Pope!! And, he's a people's pope! I love him!
ReplyDeleteLove that pb/jelly time graphic. So fun!
ReplyDeleteYou always have the best Friday memes to make my day.
ReplyDeleteI'm not Catholic, but I have to admit that I was oddly excited by the Pope's visit this week. I love his message of mercy and it was definitely a historical moment!
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing that video, it was totally amazing and now I have to go fix my makeup because it's all over the place. I think the Pope's visit has been amazing. I had met Pope John Paul twice and it's really hard to put into words what it was like. It was amazing and so very special. Pope Francis is such a wonderful human being. I would have loved to see him when he was here.
ReplyDeleteThat it's peanut butter jelly time funny was awesome!!

I just choked on my coffee with that hide and go seek. It's like playing with my niece, she can't stand being quiet and immediately is like "okay you found me" when clearly I wasn't even close ;-)
ReplyDeleteThe linkup was such a fun idea and you ladies had a great turnout! You should do another one for Winter although I don't think people get that excited about it compared to Fall! lol Love the peanut butter jelly time funny! haha Have a great weekend lady!
ReplyDeleteoh my gosh that video! so many tears.
ReplyDeleteokay for real, i totally did not get the peanut one. i was like peanuts butter jello 5 o'clock? it wasn't until i saw the above comments hahaha i'm just a loser.

I'll be stopping by soon to check it out! & I agree, the Pope's visit is extremely important & meaningful part of our history. I got choked up several times watching everything on tv. Made me wish I was there to see it for myself for sure! Happy Friday!!
