Weekend Recap

Happy Monday! We had such a nice weekend at my house. It was great to recover after a long week! I'm sharing just a little recap here and some pictures about what we did.

We arrived home and Jack's diaper subscription had arrived. Sammy was excited to play with his "Jack in the box." 😉

I always place a grocery pick-up order for Friday after school. I love to start the weekend off with my cupboards and fridge full. We stayed in on Friday night and made Maid-Rites for dinner, and some brownies for dessert. Jack goes to bed early these days, so we cozied up with brownies and ice cream and watched Toy Story 2. 


We had plenty of play time, and went to church and out to eat on Saturday night. 


Jack is getting super mobile! I think I said "that's not where I left you!" about fifty times this weekend. 😅


Sunday was more of the same. Both boys slept in past 7, which was such a treat! We played, played, played, and had a short walk in the afternoon. Spring can't come any sooner. Haha. 

For dinner I prepped a really yummy chicken spaghetti (recipe to come). I like to make enough food on our Sunday evening that we can enjoy leftovers on Monday evening. It makes going back to work a little easier knowing that I've already got dinner in hand. 

We ended our weekend the same way it began: ice cream and brownies, but this time with some football. 

Happy Monday! XX

Friday Favorites [7-3-2026]

  It's Friday, and it's the 4th of July Eve! Sounds pretty good to me. 😉 I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  to share some favorites from the week.  I'm dipping my toe back into blog world because, well, I am missing documenting my kids' childhoods. It brings me such joy to go back and read through memories from years before documented in old posts, so I'm determined to hang out here a bit more consistently to share life.  This summer, I've got a seven (7?!) year old and a new 3 year old. Someone the other day was talking about what a difference a year makes from summer to summer and it is so true. For example, this year Jack and Sammy love to go play together. Last year, both boys required constant supervision. Last year Jack hated going to the pool, and this year he is a little fish! This is a BIG favorite for me! Last weekend Sammy participated in a "Run Hit Pitch" competition and won first place for hitting in his age division. He was so ...

Sammy is SEVEN!

  Sammy is SEVEN! Seven years ago we were at the hospital, excited and nervous to meet our Samuel John.  Sammy was always a happy baby and toddler, and that's continued into childhood. He is so affable, friendly, and confident! He loves his family, he loves to play and he loves to be active. Games are his favorite, and he loves to "snuggle."  Since returning back to school, he's developed a huge love of reading! As a first grade teacher this WARMS my heart. He loves most books, but right now he favors graphic novels. He is the best big brother. Without us asking, he is so willing to help his brother. Just yesterday, Jack sneezed and Sammy ran to get him a wipe and then proceeded to wipe Jack's nose for him. If someone gets hurt he often hurries to see what's wrong and if he can help. He's a lot like Dustin in that he loves to have fun and be social. He's a lot like me in that he loves to make lists and know the when/how things are happening. He loves a...

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...
