• **Hello Monday** {8.7.2023}

    Happy Monday!! We are back already starting week 2 of school.  Today, I’m linking up with Holly and Sarah for Hello Monday and sharing a recap of our weekend.  Friday, we had our Tribe celebration at school!   Of course, they also had to throw in the fundraiser kick off. I don’t want any more trinkets and junk. 😉  After school, we headed to the grocery store. Joey was very sweet and surprised me and Addison with milkshakes for finishing our first week.  Joey got electricity out to our patio, and got our fans installed. I enjoyed a little time outside Friday evening.  Saturday morning, Joey went to run with Colin early. He was back…

  • **Friday Favorites** {8.4.2023}

    Happy Friday!! Whew, what a week! First week of school tired is always real.  Like the norm, I’m linking up with the blogs AlittlebitofEverything and Momfessionals and sharing my favorite things from the week. We had one more day of Pre-planning on Monday. Our wonderful PTA served a delicious lunch. We felt very spoiled.  We got Addison’s teacher a little Back 2 School treat.  Tuesday was the 1st day of school. Lots of pictures were taken.  Joey was able to take her and walk her in, since I was busy with morning duties. He also walked Adalynn in to her class. So awesome that they are now at the same school.  Addison does have…

  • **What’s up Wednesday July** {8.2.2023}

    It’s the last Wednesday of the month. Well it was supposed to be, but I got my dates mixed up. Haha!   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.  Settle in ya’ll, it’s a long post. 😉  1. What We Are Eating This Week: Sunday: We ate at Dad & Moms. She made BBQ Brisket, Broccoli & Cheese Casserole, Baked Beans, and  Carrots.  Monday: Pork Loin,…

  • **Hello Monday** {7.31.2023}

    Happy Monday!!! We had a great last official weekend of the school year before the kiddos start back on Wednesday!  Today, I’m linking up with Holly and Sarah for Hello Monday and sharing a recap of our weekend. Friday, we had Open House at our school. I had to snap some pictures with my teacher friends! I couldn’t do it without them.  And one with my sweet sister n’ law, Cindy.  Joey brought Addison, and I was able to walk her around and meet her teacher. She was a little shy, but she said she is excited!  She’s ready for 1st grade!!  Right after school, I had a doctor’s appointment. Once I got home,…

    Hello Friends!! Happy Friday!! Ya’ll, I just started back to school/work, and I’ve been so busy! I know it will get easier, but I feel like I’ve not had myself together.  I mean, one day, I forgot my laptop at home. I have felt discombobulated. Ha!  Like the norm, I’m linking up with the blogs AlittlebitofEverything and Momfessionals and sharing my favorite things from the week. Since my week has been so busy, today is short and sweet.  We started off our Monday with a staff breakfast at our local college. It was so nice! Then, we had a busy day of unpacking and moving some teachers.  Tuesday, I had a county office meeting,…

  • **Destin Vacation 2023** {7.26.2023}

    Side note: So, since starting back to school/work this week, I obviously have lost track of the dates. I will plan to share my What’s up Wednesday post next week. So, be sure to come back here then for that. 😉  Today, I’m doing a recap of our most recent vacation. I’ll warn you, today’s post is long because I’m trying to do it all in one post. So, settle in and grab an iced coffee.  We went to Miramar Beach, Florida which is just a couple miles from Destin, if you’re familiar.  We left fairly early on a Wednesday morning headed south. If you’re familiar with Atlanta traffic, you…

  • **Hello Monday** {7.24.2023}

    Well friends, I am officially back at school today. We have 6 days of pre planning, and then the kids start August 1st. I always say it, but Summer really flew by! Addison is staying with my parents, so she’s still having a blast on summer time.  Today, I’m linking up with Holly and Sarah for Hello Monday and sharing a recap of our weekend. Friday morning, I had to go get bloodwork for my physical. Mom went with me, so she could occupy Addison.  After leaving, we headed to look for Addison some new shoes for school. We liked the black ones and teal ones.  We were all starving… I had fasted,…

  • **Friday Favorites** {7.21.2023}

    Hello Friends!! I come to you today with my last Friday Favorites of the Summer break. Starting Monday, I’m back at school. We have had a wonderful summer filled with lots of memories. I am sad to be going back, but it will be good to see everyone and get back into a routine. When do your kids go back to school?  Like the norm, I’m linking up with the blogs AlittlebitofEverything and Momfessionals and sharing my favorite things from the week. Last week, we went down to Destin, Florida for the week. We got home on Tuesday evening. So, my Friday favorites are really starting on Wednesday.  Here are a couple pictures from…

  • **Let’s Look At… New Favorite Summer Finds** {7.12.2023}

    Happy Wednesday!! This week has already about worn me out between Amazon Prime Days and Nordstrom Anniversary Sale! It’s all keeping me up late and spending way too much money! Haha! 😉  On the second Wednesday of every month, I link up with Shay from MixandMatchMama and Erika from ALittleBitofEverything. Today we are talking about my favorite Summer finds!!

  • **Hello Monday** {7.10.2023}

    Hello Friends and Happy Monday!! I’m getting a little sad because our Summer is flying by and the end is quickly approaching.  Today, I’m linking up with Holly and Sarah for Hello Monday and sharing a recap of our weekend. Friday morning, my gal pal Shannon and I headed with our kids to Lake Winnie. Neither of us had been, so we didn’t really know what to expect. It was about an hour and half drive from our house. We arrived right when they opened to hopefully avoid the crowds and maybe beat the heat a little bit, if that was even possible. Ha!  The park has an amusement ride side, and then they…
