Are you guys all okay from Hurricane Zeke? Here, in north Georgia, we were under a Tropical Storm warning. Crazy, I know. Well, when Zeke came through Thursday morning about 5 a.m., everybody knew it! It was so windy I thought the windows were going to bust or the roof was just going to fly off. It was super scary!  ********************************* The beginning of this week, there were some favorites. Like when I exercised my right and voted. πŸ™‚ Another favorite…. doesn’t everyone build…

  • **Weekend Recap** {10.26.2020}

    Happy Monday!! We had a pretty low-key weekend which is good because today starts another very busy week.  Joey’s Dad “Grandpa” and “Granna” kept Addison Friday night. They sent this picture. It’s too bad she wasn’t having any fun or being spoiled at all. Haha!  #whateverAddisonwantsshegets While they were out playing, Joey and I were having date night.  Saturday morning, we slept until 8:15. That never happens! Who are we?  Joey started his normal routine of cooking weekend breakfast. I started my normal routine, cleaning, doing all the laundry, and tidying up/organizing. While I was doing all the things, I love to have Pioneer Woman on in the background. I…

  • **Friday Favorites** {10.23.2020}

    Happy Happy Friday!!!!  It has been a very busy week filled with sprinkles of Fall fun! It has also been exhausting on the school front. This teacher is tired.  Today is another link up with the blogs AlittlebitofEverything and Momfessionals and sharing some of my favorite things from the week!!  Mom took Addison to get some things at the Outlet Mall while I was at work one day last week. These pics of them having lots of fun were a favorite, for sure! Of course, in Addison fashion, she’s never looking at the camera. Haha! Is anyone else watching Emily in Paris on Netflix. I started watching it this week, and it’s quickly becoming a favorite.…

  • **Pumpkin Patch Fun** {10.21.2020}

    Sunday afternoon we took off to the pumpkin patch. Pumpkins and all the fun things make me oh so happy! Get ready for lots of pumpkins, ruffles, and bows.  Wagon photos filled with pumpkins are a favorite.  Eeek a skeleton!  Sweet pictures  I really wanted to do the hay ride, however, there was a huge line, and they were not social distancing. We were pretty uneasy with it, so we opted for the corn maze.  They had lots of fun things to do.  This was the same location, just a year apart. This year they didn’t have the trailer decorated. Look how much she has grown! Let me go cry…

  • **Weekend Recap** {10.19.2020}

    Well, hello there, Monday. I can’t believe you’re here already. This weekend flew by. We had a few hiccups, but the Lord is merciful and gracious.  Friday after school, I went with some teacher friends to a home decor warehouse sale.  Hello, pumpkin. There was a huge cotton field on our way out…… We went and enjoyed lots of laughs and a delicious dinner. I didn’t get home until almost 9:15. Who am I? Ha!  While I was out with some friends, Addison was partying it up with Adalynn and Grandma. She spent the night with her Friday night. We got this sweet picture. They sure do love and miss…

  • **Friday Favorites** {10.16.2020}

    Happy Happy Friday!!!!  So glad to see you weekend!  Today, like usual, I’m linking up with the blogs AlittlebitofEverything and Momfessionals and sharing some of my favorite things from the week!!  I went to Target one day this week and found some favorite things.  This color block cardigan was super cute. It even matched my Hocus Pocus shirt I had on that day. πŸ˜‰ I’m usually not a fan of V-necklines, but this shirt had me at hello. It’s super soft and the quality is great. For $8.00, I just couldn’t say no.  This crewneck sweatshirt was very soft and will be great for wearing these cooler days. It is a bit on the shorter…

  • **Weekend Recap** New Camper’s Maiden Voyage {10.12.2020}

    Happy Monday!! The students are off school today, but I’m at school having meetings/training all day. This weekend we took a short camping trip. It was just about an hour away, and we wanted to check out all the things in our new camper. My parents and Aunt/Uncle went too and took their camper. Hurricane Delta was set to arrive and bring tons of rain. We were crossing our fingers that we weren’t going to be flooded the entire weekend.  This was Friday after setting up.  We stirred and grilled up some veggies for dinner with some chicken.  Griddle / Caddy  That evening, we made smores around the fire.  That…

This week has felt like a long one… Today, like usual, I’m linking up with the blogs AlittlebitofEverything and Momfessionals and sharing some of my favorite things from the week!!  I don’t have a lot to share today. We are headed out of town after school today for a little camping trip. The weather is not looking too favorable with the storm coming in. πŸ™ Playing outside in this beautiful autumn weather is a favorite.  One day this week, we carved pumpkins in our 1st grade class. The kids LOVED it! It was so much fun! We wrote adjectives to describe the pumpkin and all its contents.…
