Friday 5: Favorite Things from August

Friday 5: Favorite Things from August

Can you believe August is almost over??? We only have 3 more days. Then it’s September!!! And that means there are only 4 more months in the year! But you know what, that also means only 6 days till college football starts and 8 days till the Dawgs play! It also means there’s less than a month until Fall is officially here! Only a few more weeks till all our shows come back on TV. AND… Guess what! Only 17 weeks till Christmas!!!
So now that I’ve got you all excited, lets look at some products things that I’ve loved this month, shall we?

The Naked 3 Palette – I won a Naked 3 Palette along with some other makeup goodies from a giveaway on But First, Coffee back in June. It took a while to get to me because the lip stick I wanted wasn’t in stock and then I was doing “The Music Man” so I didn’t get to really try it out till this month and I LOVE it! I play with it every day even if I’m just going grocery shopping…

Good Morning Girls – I’ve talked on the blog before about the Good Morning Girls bible study but I couldn’t help but include it here too. I got quite a bit behind during my crazy busy summer, but that’s OK because they’re taking a pretty big break between their summer and fall studies. So over the last month I finished up the study of Proverbs and can I just say, I look at the Proverbs 31 woman in a whole new light now! I’ll talk more about this on Monday in my “What I learned in August” post so stay tuned!

Blogiates – I’ve fallen in love with Blogilates again! I’ve been doing the August workout calendar and it’s killing me! In the best way possible, of course. I feel so good after working out even if I sometimes feel like I want to murder Cassey when I’m in the middle of it. But the best part is, I haven’t had any trouble motivating myself to work out. I just really enjoy Pop Pilates that much!

Canva – I can’t remember who introduced me to Canva first, but I know Daniela used it a lot in her Blog Makeover Challenge that I took at the beginning of this month. Anyway, I use it now for making graphics for my blog. I don’t use it exclusively because there are some things that Pickmonkey still does better, like easily re-sizing images and making backgrounds transparent. But there are things Canva has that Pickmonkey doesn’t too like saving your creations and being able to edit them again later.

Galaxy S6 Edge – Last, but not least, I got a new phone at the very end of July because I dropped my old one and cracked the screen. I decided to go with the Galaxy S6 Edge. I’ve loved all my Galaxy phones in the past and I just loved how sleek the edge looked. I don’t even use the notifications on the side much but I just love the shape of the screen and the way it feels in my hand. It’s hard to explain.

So there you have it, my 5 favorite things from this month!
What are some products you’ve loves this month?
