Friday Favorites [7-12-2024]

 


As summer continues on, I am finding these weeks are passing even more quickly! I can't believe that we're just about halfway through July. I'm linking up with Erika and Andrea to share some favorites from the week. Here we go! 

First up...Vacation Bible School for Sammy! It was his first year attending, and it was from 9:00-2:30 each day. That's a long day for a little boy! Each day he'd come home hungry and exhausted, and I'm pretty sure it was a glimpse of what starting Kindergarten will be like. 😉 Overall it was a great experience for him! I'm glad he has the weekend to recover and have some down time. 

While Sammy was gone at VBS, Jack had...all the appointments. Womp womp. He had his first dental visit, a pediatrician appointment, and an appointment with his food allergy dietitian. He was a little trooper through it all! 

Matching outfits will always be a favorite of mine. I loved my boys looking handsome in their matching Mickey Mouse polos! I've been adding new Mickey shirts to the boys' wardrobe in preparation for a little surprise trip we have planned for them in December. Shhh. 😉


BLTs and Iowa sweet corn is one of my very favorite meals of the summer! Especially when I make the sandwich using homemade sourdough. 

The boys love the sweet corn, too. 


One last favorite from the week is this picture of the boys from our church's pool party last night! They love any chance they get to swim. 

That's it for today! I'll see you back here on Monday. Have a great weekend! XX

    Summer always seems to fly over so quickly!
    Aww! It sounds like Bible School has been a great experience for Sammy. What a busy time for Jack. What a star he is! The matching outfits are so cute.

  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 ...

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...
