Friday Favorites 9-29-2023

 



It's Friday! Today I'm linking up with Andrea and Erika to share some Friday Favorites from the week. 


It's Homecoming week in my town, so we've had a super fun week at my school! Our town does a Homecoming parade each year on Thursday before the game. I walked in the parade with my school staff while wearing Jack in the baby wrap, while Dustin and Sammy watched. Sammy wore Dustin's high school jersey for the festivities. 


I wish I could tell that high school girl that 15 years later their son would be wearing that jersey for Homecoming. 😉


This pictures melts my heart. He has such admiration for the "Newton Cardinal Football players." 


It's soccer season! The "Hurricanes" [AKA Sammy's team] play a game each Saturday. I love watching him play! Dustin is coaching them and equates it to "herding cats." haha!


Sammy requested spaghetti this week for dinner and was thrilled when it was finally spaghetti night. He promptly ate a plate of it, then requested another. #growingboy 


Easy crockpot meals are absolutely a favorite! Have you seen my recipe for Crockpot Italian Beef? It's a super easy recipe that makes a really delicious sandwich. 


This was Dustin's last week of vacation. It's been so nice having him home the last 3 weeks! I love all the fun pictures of Jack I get from him throughout the day. 


Bath time is always a favorite of mine. Look at that clean and fresh baby!


Last weekend Dustin painted our front door to match our new siding, and we added a few touches for fall. I'm super pleased with how it turned out. 

It's a short and sweet post today. I am looking forward to a relaxing weekend! Dustin is taking Sammy to an air show, and I plan to have a quiet night at home with Jackson. Check back in on Sunday for  Jack's four month update! Have a wonderful weekend. XX

    The Crockpot Italian Beef sounds so good, perfect for this time of year.

      The crockpot beef is delicious! It makes a lot, so I always appreciate the leftovers the next day. :)

Friday Favorites [9-6-2024]

  I'm always happy to see Friday, but especially when the weather calls for... this gloriousness this weekend, I.Can't.Wait.!  I'm linking up with Andrea  and Erika  to share some favorites from our busy, short week!  These brothers get so excited to see each other everyday after school, it melts me! They were together at childcare last year, so it makes me think that they have to be missing each other this year.  Brother time is always a favorite of mine. 😊 The chicken street taco kit from Costco is a favorite as well! This time of year it's important to get dinner on the table quickly and I love that this kit involves minimal clean-up.  This little boy is determined to start walking. He's getting braver and braver by the day!  There's a new flag football player in town. 😉 Sammy started flag football this week and I can't wait to watch him in action this fall! This is his "tough face." Haha.  Sammy's lunches have been a favorite for sure....

Friday Favorites [8-9-2024]

  It's Friday! I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  to share some favorites from my week.  I don't even know HOW it happened, but this is my last official week of summer. Can you hear me crying from wherever you are? 😅 June passed slowly, but July and August flew. I know that I will blink and the upcoming week will be over.  We've just been over here trying to soak in all  that's left of summer. 😉 On August 6th, Dustin and I celebrated 8 years of marriage! We celebrated with our first date night in an entire calendar year.  With Jack's allergies and Dustin's crazy work schedule, we find it so hard to get out just the two of us. It's a goal of ours to make it a priority this year!  Sammy's Kindergarten backpack, lunchbox and thermos came and he couldn't have been more excited. We loaded up all of his supplies and he is ready. Me on the other hand? I need someone to come over here and hold me. Haha.  Smiley boys at the park are ...

Friday Favorites [10-4-2024]

Happy, HAPPY Friday!  I hate to even say it outloud, but Jack slept through the night two nights in a row this week. He's been getting so many teeth - all at the same time for about three weeks. This led to lots of broken nights of sleep for our boy. It is AMAZING how much better I feel getting a full night of sleep. Haha.  Needless to say, I'm feeling extra perky this Friday.  I'm linking up with Andrea  and  Erika  to share a few favorites from my week. 😊 Sammy's flag football team is the Chiefs, and so obviously his favorite dog supporter needed to get a matching outfit. Look at Sammy's red cheeks! We're ready for fall weather to arrive in full force over here. Haha.  This week was National Night Out in our town, and Dustin helped work it. I stopped by with the boys, and Jack was genuinely surprised to see so many people who looked like his daddy. He got so excited when he saw the first police car, but was disappointed his daddy wasn't inside. 😉 D...
