Happy Friday everyone! Noticing a double post today? I wrote a post about delicious banana s’mores earlier today! I hope you check it out! Here are some other things I’m loving this Friday. Have a fabulous weekend!
1. I’m officially an active member of the Junior League! I’ve had an amazing year doing community outreach, learning about the incredible charity organizations in Omaha, and meeting wonderful ladies. We had our big end of year meeting this past week and all of the new members were recognized and officially declared active members. We were given these beautiful Be The Change bracelets that I absolutely love. I think it’s a perfect way to remember a great first year and inspire us for all the years to come.
2. Josh and I saw Once at Omaha Performing Arts this week and it was one of the most moving performances I’ve ever seen. If you get a chance to see this show you absolutely need too. (They’re performing in Omaha through Sunday for all my local peeps!) It’s funny, touching, and absolutely beautiful. Falling Slowly is my new favorite song. It made me feel all the feels.
3. I always want my house to smell nice and clean and I always worry it doesn’t. (Am I the only one that’s neurotic about things like this?) As I’ve been working out more, I’ve been accumulating a lot more sweaty, stinky workout clothes. And I’ve run into the problem where I start a workout class in clothes I just washed and they don’t smell clean. And then I’m wondering for the next however many minutes until the workout pain sets in and I no longer care if the person next to me can smell me and if they think I’m dirty. It’s ridiculous, but it’s true. Recently we started using Febreze’s In-Wash Odor Eliminator and I’m a big fan. Yay for clean workout clothes that actually smell clean!
4. The song Worth It is my new jam. I’m sharing the lyric video because as good as the song is, the music video is terrible. Watching it is not worth it. 😉
5. I just got this necklace in the mail from LOFT and am a huge fan! I feel like the mint colors are so perfect for spring and summer. I’m excited to pair this necklace with pretty sundresses and feminine blouses!
Linking up with Heather and Clare today!
Questions of the Day: What are you loving this Friday? What’s your favorite Broadway play? Do you get weird about smelly workout clothes?
P.S. See you tomorrow with a new Saturday Shares post!
Great list! I am definitely the same way about my house and am always worried my workout gear can be smelled. Not neurotic! Or if it is, I’m right there with you.

Aww thank you Melanie! I hope you’re having a wonderful weekend!
I didn’t know you were in Omaha! That is where I am from, but live in KC now : ) I heard Once was amazing, I had a lot of friends who went and loved it!

Ohh I love KC! I want to do a girls trip there this summer! And Josh and I really want to do a romantic getaway together there! I love how many good food and shopping places there are!
I saw Once the movie in like 2008 and loved it. That is definitely my favorite song from it. I knew the girl looked familiar… from How I Met Your Mother! Also Fifth Harmony is the jam. I saw them when they were on the X Factor and think it’s cool to see how far they’ve come.
It is awesome to see how far Fifth Harmony has come! I love their songs. And I need to see the Once movie! I absolutely loved the play!
such pretty bracelets!
Thanks girl! I’m so excited to be an active Junior League member!
Ooo i have a loft super close to my house but i’ve never gone in before! i love that necklace. also thank you for sharing the none music video version! I ALWAYS find that the music video ruins any song for me. which is quite sad really
Yeah the music video is really, really bad. haha But I love the song! You should totally check out LOFT. They’re one of my favorite stores!
Congratulations on becoming an Active with the JLO. I’m a past president of the Junior League of North Little Rock and I grew so much in my confidence over those years. It is a wonderful opportunity!
Thank you Judi! How awesome you were past president! It is such an awesome organization and I’m so excited for my first active year!
I LOVE that necklace! LOFT is so awesome!my favorite musical is still The Phantom of the Opera. It never gets old.
I love The Phantom of the Opera! I’ve seen it multiple times and never grow tired of it!
This musical looks great, I wish I would have been on top of my game to go!
It was such a good play! I hope you get to see it sometime soon!
I know I must see that musical! This is such a great list and oh, that necklace, love, love, love! Hope your weekend is as amazing as you are!! xo

Aww thank you Andrea! What a sweet comment! I hope you get to see the musical soon! It’s so good!
Love the bracelets, congratulations on becoming an official active member! I also love that necklace. You’re totally not alone on being paranoid about smelly workout clothes, either.
I’m glad it’s not just me with the workout clothes issue! haha And thank you, I’m really looking forward to my first year as an active member!
I adore the Once musical! Have you seen the movie it is based off of? Falling Slowly is legit one of my favorite songs of all time! And congrats on being a part of the Junior League!
Thanks Meg! I’m so excited for my first active year as a Junior League member! And I haven’t seen the Once movie yet. I need to!
Great post!

Thank you Malena! I hope you had a wonderful weekend!
I have loved being in the Junior League! With all of our moves knowing that I can transfer into the local JL and have an instant group has been such a sanity saver! Congrats on finishing your provisional year! xo
Thank you so much Stephanie! It has been an incredible experience so far!
Worth It is so good. And that Loft necklace is SO pretty!
I have been listening to that song on repeat lately! And thank you! I love Loft and was so happy I bought this necklace!
I’m also a member of Junior League! I joined in Westchester, New York and then transferred to Minneapolis. It’s been a great organization to be a part of. I also concur that you need to see the movie version of Once — personally I think it’s better but I’m biased because I saw the movie first.
Okay I’m officially renting Once! I really want to see the movie version! And yay for Junior League! It is a seriously awesome organization!
