**What’s up Wednesday** {8.25.2021}

August 25, 2021 / 8 Comments

It’s the last Wednesday of the month. I’m linking up with Mix and Match Mama and Sheaffer. I am sharing a little bit of everything that’s been going on with us lately. I can’t believe the month of August is already over. September is almost here which means, I can start putting up my Fall decorations!!! 

1. What We Are Eating This Week:

Sunday: Ribeye Steaks, Baked Potato, Salad

Monday: White Chicken Enchiladas, Black Beans (Picture Below)

Tuesday: Polish Sausage, Fried Potatoes, Pinto Beans

Wednesday: Lasagna

Thursday: Leftover Enchiladas

Friday: Leftover Sausage 

Saturday: Kitchen’s closed! 

2. What I’m Reminiscing About: 

Look at this sweet girl from 2 years ago. I loved that little Well Dressed Wolf piece. 

Look at these sweet dance pictures from 2019, 2020, and then this year. 

And then these sweet school picture comparisons from last year to this year. She’s grown so much! 

3. What I’m Loving:

I’m loving dropping off Addison when it’s daylight, and grabbing a Starbucks afterward. My favorite flavor right now is- Salted Caramel Cream Cold Brew. What’s your favorite drink? 

I’m still loving this Thermacell Mosquito Repeller. I wouldn’t be able to stay outside and enjoy sitting on the porch without it. I feel like the mosquitoes have been worse this year. 

I’m also still loving these velvet hangers. They’re slim which helps maximize space in your closet. Always a good thing. 😉 And the velvet prevents slipping.  

4. What We’ve Been Up To:

We have been doing lots of things this month. We started back to dance. Addison is loving Tap! 

We also tried out Soccer. Addison is enjoying it, and she’s getting better after every game. 

5. What I’m Dreading:

I’m not really dreading anything right now. 😉 Just dreading more hot weather in our forecast. We are supposed to have a heat index of 99 this week. 

6. What I’m Working On: 

I’m working on preparing dinner and getting folders signed and lunches made for tomorrow. 

7. What I’m Excited About: 

I am excited about cooler temps and all the Fall things that are on the horizon. 

8. What I’m Watching/Reading:

Joey and I have been watching Manifest. It’s interesting. 

With starting back to school and all the extracurricular things, I haven’t had a lot of time to read. I have been reading Float Plan and am almost finished. I have enjoyed it. It’s a little predictable but very cute. 

Heartbroken by the loss of her fiancé, adventurous Anna finds a second chance at love with an Irish sailor in this riveting, emotional romance.

After a reminder goes off for the Caribbean sailing trip Anna was supposed to take with her fiancé, she impulsively goes to sea in the sailboat he left her, intending to complete the voyage alone.

But after a treacherous night’s sail, she realizes she can’t do it by herself and hires Keane, a professional sailor, to help. Much like Anna, Keane is struggling with a very different future than the one he had planned. As romance rises with the tide, they discover that it’s never too late to chart a new course.

In Trish Doller’s unforgettable Float Plan, starting over doesn’t mean letting go of your past, it means making room for your future.

9. What I’m Listening To: 

I’ve got Fuller House playing in the background right now. 🙂 

10. What I’m Wearing: 

The things I ordered from Amazon came in, and I love them all! They are going to be great for transitioning to Fall. 

This adorable color block knot top will be great for wearing to all the Fall festivities. I love the fit and the color scheme. Mine is the Navy + Coffee + Brown.

Look at this leopard pumpkin graphic tee. It will be so cute and perfect for Fall and the pumpkin patch. Even Halloween! Leopard + Pumpkins, Yes, Please!

Yes, I ordered more Leopard. I saw this short sleeved leopard top and thought, yep, I like that too! One can never have too much leopard. 😉

I also ordered this Sherpa knitted sweater. It is so soft and cozy! Definitely not something I will be wearing anytime soon, but something I look forward to wearing when the air gets cooler. It comes in many colors, but I ordered the Red Brick. It’s definitely more Rust than Red though.

11. What I’m Doing This Weekend: 

This weekend is our last soccer game of the season. The summer season was short and sweet. We were just trying to figure out if Addison liked it. We may try it again in the Spring, but we just have too much going on for the Fall season. 

 

12. What I’m Looking Forward to Next Month:

We have some trips planned next month that I’m excited about. I am hopeful we can also make it to the Apple houses and do some Fall things. 

We also have some festivals we plan to attend. Wow, it looks like our weekends are going to be slammed busy. But, that’s the way I like it! 🙂

13. What Else is New:

I finally found some sandals that I liked and hopefully won’t hurt my feet. I got them at DSW, but here are the same ones on Amazon. They’re very comfortable and gives me support where I need it in my arches. 

Sandals 

Thank you all for reading. I truly am thankful for all of you! I hope you have an awesome day!! See you back here on Friday for some favorites from the week!
