Friday Favorites

Sep 14

Happy Friday! My favorite things of the week are on deck, and the #1 for today is about you, yes YOU!

1. the overwhelming response on my recent post, What Not to Say to a Parent of a Special Needs Child (read: how to not sound like an a**hole)

We are grinning from ear to ear here! The response from the post What Not to Say to a Parent of a Special Needs Child (read: how not to sound like an a**hole) was incredible, and I cried when I read all of the comments and shares on Facebook. This post has over 6,500 pageviews and more than 220 shares on Facebook- it’s surreal! I cannot thank you enough for the overwhelming support and uplifting words about the comments and questions we receive about Eloise’s condition, and how we handle them. I just want to hug you all! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU.

2. Cue Will Smith’s “Welcome to Miami”!

Miami 08-27-18-8550

It looks like we’re headed back to Miami in the next few weeks, and I am so excited to be sharing a family weekend getaway with Loews Hotel Miami Beach! I can’t wait to share all of the activities and fun that Loews has to offer, and how it’s the perfect getaway for our family.

3. “Say ‘bay-bee’!”

Eloise tried to say “baby” earlier this week and my heart melted. Take a peek below, it was the cutest! She still has only said “mama” and “dada” a few times, but having “baby” be her third word would be awesome. She sure does love her babies! To view the video, type “baby” in the password box 🙂

4. these shoes have proved themselves (and you need a pair!)

I know I’ve mentioned these Target Wenda shoes that are the dupes for the Free People Royale flats, and I just want to give these Wenda shoes some extra love. Yesterday I walked two Disney Parks in five hours and I had zero blisters. These shoes are so comfortable and so wallet-friendly at only $32.99! You can’t beat it.

5. And the winner is…

The Vera Bradley giveaway was a huge success earlier this week, and I’m excited to announce that the winner is Katie S.! Congratulations, Katie!! Expect an email in your inbox shortly 🙂

 

Have a great weekend, friends! I’ll see you back here on Monday 🙂

Meet Faison

Hi there! I’m Faison, (fay-sen) and I’m the gal behind Faison Anne. I’m a wife and mother living in sunny Orlando, Florida. Photography is my passion (you’ll see a lot of it here!) and so is a good cappuccino. Here you’ll find bits about wrangling a preschooler and a toddler, Walt Disney World tips and tricks, photography hacks, and maybe even a recipe or two. Stick around- I’m so happy you’re here!
