**Hello Monday** Thanksgiving Break Recap {11.27.2023}
Happy Monday friends!! I am back and rested and had a wonderful week off with family and friends! Today, I’m linking up with Holly and Sarah for Hello Monday and sharing a recap of our weekend and Thanksgiving break. Friday, a week ago, we left straight from school and work and headed north to Pigeon Forge, Tennessee. We arrived around 8 and were eager to get settled in and relax before a busy, fun weekend. We woke up early Saturday morning to beautiful mountains from our balcony. We got ready and headed to breakfast. We killed some time by going into Three Bears General store. We were waiting for our friends to arrive. …

Happy Friday!!! We have had a crazy busy week, and we are so pumped that it’s Friday and the start of Thanksgiving break! Like the norm, I’m linking up with the blogs AlittlebitofEverything and Momfessionals and sharing my favorite things from the week. Tuesday, I had a county office meeting, so I got to be normal and drop Addison off in the car rider line. She was eating Thanksgiving lunch with Adalynn and Penny/Grandma. So, I went ahead and had her wear her Thanksgiving outfit. She was so excited Grandma came to eat lunch. Such a special time. Tuesday, after school, was a little crazy… I didn’t get out of my meeting until 4.…

**Happy 7th Birthday Addison** {11.15.2023}
Today, our sweet little girl is 7 years old! I cannot believe she’s 7! It seems like just yesterday we were having restless nights. It really does fly by.

**Halloween Treat** {11.1.2023}
Happy November 1st… now that Halloween is over, this is on my mind. I do want to share some Halloween treats that we made for Addison’s classmates. Addison and I made some Rice Krispy treats for her class. After melting and mixing everything up…. We spread them out on a baking sheet with parchment paper to let them do their thing. We decided to make ghosts and pumpkins. Addison helped me with the icing. They turned out cute, and her classmates were happy. I can’t let the day pass without sharing Sephora’s Savings Event! This is the time to get all the favorite things! It started yesterday and is going through…
