Friday Favorites [4-25-2024]

 


I'm so glad to see Friday roll around this week. There are 24 more school "wake-ups" until summer and that sounds pretty good to this teacher. 😉

As usual, I'm linking up with Andrea and Erika to share some Friday Favorites. Here we go! 

My first favorite is our very mobile Jack. He's been pulling himself up to stand on all sorts of furniture (or people), and he's also mastered the stairs. Sammy had zero interest in the stairs so this is brand new territory for us. I think baby gates are in our future. Haha. 

We live in a fairly new houseing development, and there are several houses for sale a few streets over. On Wednesday there were open houses, and a taco truck was parked to bring more traffic to the area. We gladly took advantage and took a walk to grab our dinner. 

Roo's little feet got tired, and she ended up riding most of the way home. Hahaha. 

Sourdough continues to be a favorite around here. This past weekend brought us a pesto and mozzarella loaf, and some sourdough discard cookies. 


Spiderman stopped fighting crime for one, and he approved. 😉

It is my firm belief that breakfast casseroles are too delicious to only be eaten on special occasion breakfasts. We had one over the weekend and it was a favorite for sure. 

Swing rides are one of Jack's new favorite things. We put up Sammy's old baby swing and Jack couldn't have been happier! It makes me happy to see a baby swing on our porch again. 😊

I just finished "Darling Girls" by Sally Hepworth, and I am CONFLICTED about how I feel about it. This book tells the story of girls, who turn sisters, who were in the foster care system, and treated terribly. While I'm not sure how to feel about this book, I couldn't put it down. I literally read it in 24 hours. It was an addicting read!

That's all for this week! Have a great weekend, see you back here Monday! XX

    Oh wow! It doesn't seem that long until summer. I think we have a little longer.
    Aww! Jack is just adorable. My girls used to be obsessed with the stairs when they were little.
    How cool that there was a taco truck near you. What a great sounding evening.

Friday Favorites [5-3-2024]

  Yay! It's Friday and it's the month of MAY! Both of those things are very good things in my book. Today I'm linking up with  Andrea  and  Erika  to share some favorites from the week.  On Monday I shared that we had a busy weekend! My mom and I hosted a Bridal Shower for my sweet cousin Caitlin, and then our new niece and nephew were baptized on Sunday. It was a fun (but tiring) way to spend the weekend!  Jack especially loved all of the family time, and was happy to sneak in some giggles with Great Grandma before the shower began. 😉 We whipped up these  Burrito Bowls  for dinner one night this week, and it was a new favorite. It was such an easy meal that Dustin and I both loved!  It's May, which means that it's time for me to read "Charlotte's Web" to my class. I read it every year during the month of May! This book has seen much better years - I think it's time for a new copy. Haha.  The boys and I love to play in the basement...

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 ...
