It’s the last Wednesday of the month. I am linking up with Mix and Match Mama and Sheaffer and sharing what has been going on with us lately. It’s a little food, a little family, a little what we’re wearing, a little what we’re doing, a little what we’re watching and a little bit of everything else all in one post.
1. What We Are Eating This Week:
Sunday: Ate at Mom & Dad’s house. She cooked Chicken Enchiladas, Rice, Refried Beans. Then she had all kinds of toppings and Cheese Dip with Chips
Monday: Potato Soup with Toppings- Bacon & Cheese
Tuesday: Chicken & Broccoli Noodle Casserole
Wednesday: Mummy Dogs with Fries
Thursday: Leftover Potato Soup
Friday: Out to eat while out Trick or Treating
Saturday: Kitchen’s closed!
2. What I’m Reminiscing About:
I was at Dad & Mom’s the other night, and she had found some pictures from high school. Look at this throwback from high school with Shannon & Rebekah.
All these Fall & Halloween memories are precious to me.
And these pictures are from last year when we went on a short weekend girl’s trip.
3. What I’m Loving:
I am still loving this candle warmer and candle. It’s so easy to use. I turn it on right when I wake up. It has a timer setting which is great, and you can change the brightness of the light. I can’t recommend it enough! And, it’s been great with my new Honeycrisp candle from Anthro.
4. What We’ve Been Up To:
We started the month with a little reunion and high school tour and game. Our high school is closing this year and a new school is opening. So all the former students were invited back for a final walkthrough and to attend the football games.
We had the best Framily camping trip!
I have loved having lots of girl time with my best girl!
Addison & Adalynn had a sleepover.
Our school had a Fall Field day, and Addison’s class won the highest honor… Tug of War. Haha!
I had to go to the cardiologist and got a lovely heart monitor to wear for two weeks. Oh the joys of getting older.
We joined many, many other people at the Gold Rush festival, and it was great as always!
We celebrated Addison’s friend, Bailey, turning 9!
We have loved the Fall weather and time outside.
5. What I’m Dreading:
I’m not really dreading anything right now. 😉 I would just like the Holiday festiveness to slow down, so I can really savor it and enjoy it all!
6. What I’m Working On:
I’m working on this blog post amid thinking of all the things we have going on this week.
7. What I’m Excited About:
I am really excited about all the fun things we have planned the next few weeks and into Thanksgiving and Christmas!!
8. What I’m Watching/Reading:
I have not had a lot of extra time for reading lately, but I did just recently start The Academy, and it’s great so far!! Even though it was written with her daughter, it gives all the early Elin Hilderbrand vibes, which I love! Have you guys read it?
I have been rewatching Gilmore Girls, and it’s just so fun! I’m only on Season 2 right now… I am honestly not a huge fan of the later seasons.
We have been trying to soak in all the Halloween movies, so we have watched and rewatched a lot of Hocus Pocus.
And in trying to reminisce and celebrate Diane Keaton, I’ve been watching a lot of her classics.
9. What I’m Listening To:
I have Gilmore Girls playing in the background right now. lol
10. What I’m Wearing:
A lot of dress up days have been going on…
But I have also been wearing this Multi Media Scalloped Top from Nordstrom. The fit and the scalloped details are so cute.
These earrings from Amazon are perfect to wear right now!
I have also ordered a lot of Holiday items, for me and Addison, from Shop the Mint. They have some darling things right now!
11. What I’m Doing This Weekend:
It’s HALLOWEEN!!! So, that’s Friday night!
Then, Saturday, Joey has a 5K that morning.
And since we haven’t had time to go yet this year, our plan is to go to a Pumpkin Patch.
12. What I’m Looking Forward to Next Month:
Addison has a birthday next month! She will be performing in her Frozen performance! And we will celebrate Thanksgiving among many other exciting things!!
13. Favorite Amazon Find:
I started taking these Magnesium Supplements a couple months ago. This one had a lot of great benefits, and I need all the help I can get. It reports to enhance uptake and support relaxation, sleep, mood, muscle, and cellular wellness.
14. What Else Is New:
If you made it this far, that is all!
Thank you all for reading. I hope you have an awesome day!! See you back here on Friday!
