Week In The Life™ 2025 | Ali's Friday

We made it to Friday and the weekend! Yay! We are having a string of awesome weather where all I want to do is be outside!

Here's a look at my Friday via photos for Week In The Life™ 2025:

Anna + Libby taking off in the morning on their way to a last day of school friend breakfast. They have finals next week.

How fun to have a last day of school breakfast. Love it.

Working on my blog post yesterday and a few other items on my list in the office. But really all I wanted to do was go outside.

It was time to get Betty's nails trimmed so I used that as a transition between desk work and outside work. She's going great getting her nails trimmed at the groomer these days and I'm so glad. She's gets a treat like a pigs ear after and I think she now associates that with the the word "trims." Also, she sits like a person in the car and doesn't make a single sound.

Seeing what seeds I have that I might want to get outside.

Watering and planting a second round of zinnia seeds in random places around the yard. I love working outside. Putting around is my favorite.

That's a peony.

One of my current favorite spots. Roses + peonies!

Adding a layer of straw to some of my roses - testing it out to see if it helps keep some moisture in there on these hot days.

The magnolia tree is also blooming.

And then I took a late afternoon nap.

So close to being ready!

My favorite little section of ground cover that is growing. It smells like mint.

Bath before date night!

I always love taking a couple outside looking in shots during Week In The Life.
