1. Doughnuts
I may have completely forgotten my birthday this past year, but you’d better believe I didn’t forget National Doughnut Day! I may have had, um, 3 to celebrate. Okay, so it was over the course of two days. Does that make it any better? 😉
2. Water Slides
We went to a waterpark and had a blast on the water slides this weekend. Oh my goodness! I felt like a little kid again. You can watch the video I posted here for proof. (Yes, that’s me going down the waterslide and squealing.)
3. This Post on Instagram
A reader shared this post on Instagram from The Alaskan Wife sporting one of our Choose Joy shirts and I just absolutely loved it. Go read it and I bet you’ll be encouraged, too!
4. Freezer Cooking
I can’t believe I fell off the freezer cooking bandwagon for so long. It’s the BEST. THING. EVAH. {Read all about the recipes I made and the kitchen adventures I had last week here.}
5. Dollar Shave Club
After a bunch of you highly, highly recommended Dollar Shave Club, I caved and signed up. Mostly because I couldn’t believe how many people raved about it and also because it was only $6/month and I figured that if I don’t like it, I can cancel after a month or two and not be out much out of pocket.
For those who are curious, here’s what came in my first box: 1 razor handle, 4 razor blades, and a shave butter sample. For $6 shipped, I was pretty impressed — especially because the quality of the razor seems pretty good.
I’m going to test it out for the next two months and then plan to write a Completely Honest Review post on my blog of my experience with Dollar Shave Club. Stay tuned!
I did an unboxing video and talked more about it here, if you’re interested.
What are YOU loving right now?
Keelie says
Hope you love the dollar shave club. 😀
I am loving that today is my anniversary and I get to celebrate with my amazing husband Austin.
I’m loving that my boys are done with public school tomorrow, and that they are coming back home to be homeschooled.
I’m not loving the overwhelm of working towards preparing for school next year, but it is a necessary evil, so I’ll take it.
Crystal Paine says
Happy anniversary!!
Keelie says
thank you! 🙂

We use Harrys and really like their razors. A little more spendy than DSC but we love them.
Here’s what I’m loving this week: http://www.myjoyinchaos.com/home/2016/6/my-weeks-joy-530-65

I’m loving so many things!
1) That my Noonday Collection business has taken off! I’m loving it and having a blast at the same time that I’m making an impact on artisans all over the world who have found a marketplace for their goods with Noonday Collection.
2) My husband was awarded an NSF travel grant earlier in the year, and the reimbursement just came in. Score! Fun when money that we spent months ago gets replenished. 🙂
3) Summer is one of my favorite times of year. I love the bright sunshine, warmth, and time to “play” in the water and pool.
4) Looking forward to time at the beach for the 4th of July holiday. Family is splitting the cost of a beach house, and we’re buying food to cook in the kitchen of the house, so it should be a fun and frugal time!
5) Just really thankful for good friends and family. I don’t ever want to take those for granted!

We use the dollar shaving club and loved it but have such a great stockpile now I decided to cancel and unfortunately you cannot cancel at this time in their system only put your account on a three-month freeze just FYI
Beth says
I started the dollar shave club too-I was planning it for my husband, but then ended up swiping it. I really like the razors, but still find that the every other month is a lot to use up–maybe I let them go to long–or don’t shave enough? I can’t wait to hear your experience!
Davonne @ The Tidy Mom says
Love it! Water slides are the best!
My five things:
1) Having a decluttered house! We finished last Monday and, well, YAY!
2) A one-on-one day with my oldest before her 11th birthday.
3) Spending the day berry picking & playing in the creek with my kiddos.
4) Anticipation of an upcoming family camping trip.
5) Family bike rides in the evenings.
