Five on Friday - November 14, 2025

Hey friends! We finally made it to Friday, and I couldn’t be more ready for a little breather. I’m hoping to enjoy a couple of slower days and maybe tackle a bit of organizing as I get things ready for the fast-approaching Thanksgiving holiday. But before I dive into all of that, I’d love to kick things off by sharing my newest Five on Friday post ~

1.  A Merry Little Ex-Mas
Netflix just released a new Christmas movie yesterday, and if I can find a spare moment this weekend, it’s definitely on my watch list! The previews had us laughing out loud. The story follows separated spouses, Kate and Everett, as they try to pull off one last Christmas with their kids before finalizing their divorce—only to discover that their secret plans might change everything in unexpected ways.

Are you hosting little ones for Thanksgiving this year? Or maybe you’re looking for a fun way to surprise a kiddo in your life? This I Spy Thanksgiving book would make such a cute and engaging gift! It’s a great way to keep children entertained and excited for the holiday. I love the reasons Amazon said you should choose this book:

Why Choose This I Spy Book?

  • 🎯 Playful Learning: Playfully boost your child's concentration and attention skills. No reading is required!
  • 👪 Quality Family Time: Solve puzzles together, share laughter, and create lasting memories!
  • ✈️ Perfect for Travel or Rainy Days: Keep your little one entertained for hours—ideal for long trips or cozy afternoons at home!
  • 🎨 High Replay Value: Packed with detailed search scenes and bonus coloring fun for ages 2–6.
  • 🎁 Perfect Thanksgiving Gift for Kids: A delightful surprise for your child’s Thanksgiving celebration!

I treated myself to a new pair of boots this week, and I have to say—they are absolutely adorable! I picked them up in the brown shade, but they come in several other colors if you like to switch things up. They’re made from premium nubuck leather, which gives them such a soft, luxurious feel, and they’re incredibly comfortable and surprisingly lightweight. Plus, they’re slip-ons, so they’re easy to pop on and off, making them perfect for everyday wear.  Oh - and the price is fantastic also!

4.  Coffee Mate Butterbeer Creamers
Attention, Harry Potter fans—this one’s for you! Coffee Mate just released a magical trio of new products, all inspired by the beloved butterbeer flavor. You can now pick up butterbeer-flavored creamer, a rich and fluffy cold foam, and even a zero-sugar creamer option. Whether you like your coffee sweet, foamy, or a little lighter, there’s a version to bring a touch of Hogwarts straight to your morning cup.


5.  When Choosing a Christmas Tree...


In case you missed it this week on the blog ~

I hope you’ll stop by again next week to see what’s new. Until then, wishing you a wonderful, relaxing weekend filled with all the things you enjoy most!

  2. I love your new boots! I've splurged on quite a few new pairs this fall. I had donated almost all of my old boots over the summer since none of them really fit me well.

  3. The "I Spy Thanksgiving" book will be a perfect gift for our holiday visit with our Littles. Thanks for the idea! (And the boots may just be a Thanksgiving treat for myself, too!). Have a great weekend!
