• **Hello Monday** {2.27.2023}

    I’m back… slowly… Today, I’m linking up with Holly and Sarah for Hello Monday. Last week, we went to hang out with Mickey and all his friends.  We all also got sick at some point during the trip.

  • **Friday Favorites** {2.17.2023}

    Happy Friday, friends! Today is going to be a great day! It’s the last day of school before our week long break!  Per the usual, I’m linking up with the blogs AlittlebitofEverything and Momfessionals and sharing my favorite things from the week. On Monday, I had to go pick up things for a Valentine’s day treat for our staff on Tuesday. My cart was pretty packed.  On the way back to school, I picked up some lunch for me and a few school mates. It always makes teachers happy when we don’t have to worry about packing a lunch.  Monday night, Addison was excited to tie her hair up like Mommy’s after bath time. …

  • **Low Carb Chicken Mushroom Soup** {2.15.2023}

    Hey guys! How are you today on this day after Valentine’s day?  I made this low carb Chicken Mushroom soup a few weeks back, and it was delicious! So flavorful! Even Joey commented how delicious it was.  It is packed with mushrooms, and I ended up only using two types, but I really didn’t mind them.  I started by seasoning the cut up chicken with salt and pepper.  Saute the chicken in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat in some olive oil, then remove it from the pan with a slotted spoon. -Add mushrooms to the pot, stir, and sauté for 6 minutes. (If you want to reserve a…

    Happy Monday Everybody!! I am so thankful we finally had a weekend where we were all well!  Today, I’m linking up with Holly and Sarah for Hello Monday and sharing a recap of our weekend. Friday evening, Addison had her first basketball tournament game. We headed to eat Mexican before the game. They already had it decorated for Valentine’s Day. 🙂 The girls played hard and have learned so much this season!  We ended up losing, but we were all so proud of their progress. We really did have the sweetest girls on our team.  Saturday morning, Addison and I worked on some cleaning, packing and laundry. Joey headed to Cindy’s new house,…

    Per the usual, I’m linking up with the blogs AlittlebitofEverything and Momfessionals and sharing my favorite things from the week. So, I ordered this sweater from my favorite little boutique, Jules & James. It came in, is so cute, and I wore it this week. I can’t find it on the App anymore, but maybe it will pop back up. There are so many other cute things on the site, you definitely need to check them out. And then I’m wearing the sweater with my favorite YMI, hyperstretch pants.  Jules & James Boutique On the way to drop off our taxes and run some errands, on Tuesday, we had to go by Starbuck’s to get…

  • **Let’s Look at….. Our Medicine Cabinet** {2.8.2023}

    Happy Happy Wednesday friends! How are you doing on this hump day? On the second Wednesday of every month, I join a little link up party. Today, it’s a short one, and I can’t wait to read other people’s ideas. I’m linking up with Shay from MixandMatchMama and Erika from ALittleBitofEverything and talking about what’s in our medicine cabinet.  These type posts right here are extra exciting to me. I don’t know if it’s because I’m nosy, I mean, we all are, or if it’s just interesting to see in other people’s homes and see how they function. Either way, here’s a little peek into our homes.  So, my medicine cabinet is actually…

  • **Hello Monday** {2.6.2023}

    Well, our weekend went a little differently than planned, but that’s alright Everyone needs to rest every now and then.  I’m linking up with Holly and Sarah for Hello Monday and sharing a recap of our weekend. Friday, I got a call from Addison’s teacher a little before lunch that she was running a fever. So, off I went to get her. I ended up going ahead and taking her to Children’s Urgent care in hopes that they could give her something to kick it out fast.  And, she was positive for strep, so luckily, we could get some antibiotics and start the process of feeling better.  But first, a nap.  I was able…

  • **Friday Favorites** {2.3.2023}

    Happy Happy Friday!! So happy that February has finally arrived. Holy cow, January was a long month.  Per the norm, I’m linking up with the blogs AlittlebitofEverything and Momfessionals and sharing my favorite things from the week. Addison had a great week. She practiced more reading, learned about Arctic animals, worked on counting coins, and some writing practice.  And then her sentence about her favorite book. Melts this Mama’s heart.  Our school invited our favorite pediatric dentist into our school for a very interactive program. This is Addison’s dentist, and Dr. Miles really is the best! The kids had a blast and laughed the whole time.  We are trying to all stay well in…
