Friday Favorites [3-8-2024]

 


Guys...we made it. This has been a LONG WEEK! Dustin left early morning on Monday and has been gone the entire week at a training. That in of itself is challenging, but throw parent-teacher conference week on top of it? It's been a long one, and I couldn't be happier for Spring Break to finally get here. 😊

As usual I'm linking up with Andrea and Erika to share some favorites from my week. 

My first favorite...


...is this. Ahhh. Spring Break feels pretty nice for this tired first grade teacher. We don't have much of anything planned, but the weather looks to be nice, and I'm excited to spend time with my people. 

And since it's Spring Break that has to mean that Summer won't be too far behind. The fourth quarter of school is always a flurry of activity, and it seems to go by in a FLASH! 

I can't believe that this will be Sammy's last summer before he goes to kindergarten in the fall. When did he get big enough to be a school aged student? Time is a thief. I took this photo after he tried on a new outfit [pardon the messy room], and I thought "oh, this could be his first day of school outfit!" 

Our sweet PTA has taken really good care of us teachers this week. They bring in dinner for us on Tuesday and Thursday, and it's typically pretty yummy. On Thursday they had a food truck for us. It's always a treat to not have to worry about dinner for myself on these nights. 

A little smiley-faced baby is ALWAYS a favorite of mine. 😊 His top teeth have FINALLY come in which is such a relief...for both of us! 

It's a short and sweet post today, friends. I'll still be back blogging next week, so be sure to pop in! Have a GREAT weekend!

  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....

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...

  HOORAY for Friday. 😊 I couldn't be more excited for the weekend ahead! I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  to share some of my favorite "happies" from the week.  We had THE BEST weekend last weekend! Saturday morning we were up and out the door early for a trip to Trader Joe's where we filled out cart with all the pumpkin-goodness we could find.  We were home by 11 and decided it was time to put some more fall decor outside... ...to the delight of the boys. 😉 We have an inflatable dachshund (of course we do) that says "Happy Fall-oween!" It's a favorite of the boys for sure.  A trip to Trader Joe's means that my family is having yummy (easy!) dinners during the week. I made a ridiculously easy  Potsticker Stir Fry  for an easy dinner this week while Dustin worked late. We also made some yummy flat breads using their Carne Asada, chimichurri sauce and arugula. This one was our FAVORITE!  Jack's favorite thing to do these day...
