DIMPLES AND TANGLES READS: BOOKS I'M LOVING LATELY {5}

Today I'm sharing another round of my Books I'm Loving Lately Series, you can see  list #1 here ,  #2 here ,  #3 here , and #4 here  if you need more great reading suggestions.  And please, list a favorite or two of yours- and books that were good on audio- in the comments.  I need to load up a few for a trip next week and would love your suggestions.  Happy Reading!  As a reminder, I'll give a brief summary here (enough to tell you I recommend the book!) without a lot of details, but am linking each book here out of convenience if you'd like to read the more detailed summaries.  However,  I generally check them out from the library, either the physical copy or digital copies through  the "Libby" app  and then upload them to my Kindle account (or you can read directly through the app).  If you're not familiar with Libby I highly recommend it for free e-books and audiobooks by registering with your library card.

FIVE FRIDAY FAVORITES

Hello friends, happy Friday!  We are scurrying around today taking care of a variety of things but excited to pop over to Stillwater to see Emily later today too.  We've also been cat sitting Ollie while Caleb and Kenzi have been on their first anniversary trip.  Even as empty nesters there's never a dull moment around here!  I'm sure many of you can relate.  😂  I'm excited to share some this week's Five Friday Favorites with you, so let's get to it! I recently spotted this book while traveling and it reminded me that I wanted to read it last year for Advent but discovered it too late and it was sold out everywhere.  I'm glad I was reminded to snag it now!  It's a gorgeous hardcover 25 day devotional for the Christmas season, Ruth Chou Simons has written (and illustrated beautifully!) some really good books. It's such a great price you might want a few for gifts, too... give them early so they can join you in reading for Advent!   Speaking of Chri...

THE CUTEST NEW CHRISTMAS ARRIVALS FROM WALMART!

Happy October 1st!!  I feel like October officially kicks off Fall, the holiday season... it's off to the races from here!  Christmas is 85 days away!  I am not rushing Fall and will start sharing some Fall content with you next week, but today I'm sharing some really good Christmas finds that I don't want you to miss out on.  I'll hear a lot of "It's too early!" but the best stuff goes quickly... early ... and part of my job is sharing holiday content with you early so you'll have time to make choices and plans and have everything ready when you're ready to decorate! All of these items aren't available in all stores yet, but as of publishing this post everything should be available online.  Walmart has added some fantastic Christmas decor this year.  Some of my favorite things I added last year are available again this year, and I've already added some new things to my stash for this year! Disco balls and red felt poinsettias last year - ...

CALEB AND KENZI'S WEDDING PHOTOS

We can hardly believe that one year ago today Caleb and Kenzi got married- Happy Anniversary to them!  It has flown by and been full of so many fun new firsts for our family.   We could not be more proud of these two and how they have navigated their first year of marriage!   I haven't shared Caleb and Kenzi's wedding photos from the big day here on the blog yet, so I thought today would be the perfect opportunity to do that.   Out of 1200+ professional photos plus what we have on our phones, it's almost impossible to narrow down a selection to share with you.  I have so many favorites!  I told myself I was not going to load up more than 20 so I wouldn't overwhelm you, but I just couldn't do it and decided to post as many as I wanted to... so scroll on by if you get photo fatigue! 😂 It was the sweetest day!  We had a short rehearsal early to start the day off.  Everything was planned so well and it was nice to just relax through the day and enjoy being together as ...
