• **Friday Favorites** {5.20.2022}

    We are almost there! I can’t believe that next Friday is the last day of school for students! Wow, the year flew by! But we are ready!  Per the usual, I’m linking up with the blogs AlittlebitofEverything and Momfessionals and sharing our favorites from the week. Monday after school, we were finally able to make it to the strawberry patch! We were all so excited and ready!!  It was a little warm but perfect weather.  We had to have the strawberry ice cream. It’s always the best!  Monday night, Addison wasn’t feeling well. She said her tummy was hurting really bad. And she wouldn’t eat. (Unlike her)  Tuesday morning, A woke up with a…

  • **Summer Bucket List** {5.18.2022}

    Happy Wednesday!! Today, I’m sharing our bucket list for the Summer! I can’t believe I’m saying that! We are so excited!!  I asked A earlier this week to think about some things she wants to do this summer! She was super excited and ready to spill all the things she wants to do.  Thinking hard about what she wants to do…. This is what she came up with! She was very happy about it. 😉  Go to Waterpark (Outdoor Aquatic Center) Go to the Park to Play (with friends) Grandpa’s Water Slide (Joey’s Dad has a slip n’ slide, so she definitely wants to do this!) Go to the Beach…

  • **Weekend Recap** {5.16.2022}

    Happy Monday!! How is everyone doing today? Did you have a nice weekend? The weather was beautiful, and we tried to get outside and enjoy it.  Friday night, Joey and I had a date night. We came home to the cat pawing at something in the yard. Joey realized it was a snake and not a good one- a copperhead. So, he went out to take care of it.  Saturday morning, I did the usual cleaning, laundry, organizing. But I also worked some in the camper and in the flower beds. Addison begged to play with the water gun and water balloons, so we obliged.  We got cleaned up and…

    Yay for Friday!! We are so excited and still counting down the days until Summer break! We only have 9 more school days with students! Woo Hoo! Per the norm, I’m linking up with the blogs AlittlebitofEverything and Momfessionals and sharing our favorites from the week. Today’s post is short and sweet. I had to go get new tires on my car this week. I knew I was going to be there a while, so I ran through Dunkin’ and grabbed a treat. I was there about 2 hours. I was able to get in some reading time while sitting in the sun which rarely happens. Almost like a vacay. Ha!  My Mom, Addison…

  • **Let’s Look at……My Hometown** {5.11.2022}

    Hey, Hey Wednesday!! How’s everyone doing on this May morning? I’m very excited because I’m linking up with Shay from MixandMatchMama and Erika from ALittleBitofEverything and chatting about my hometown. 🙂 I live in Canton, Georgia. It’s about 40 miles north of Atlanta and is pretty much Atlanta now considering how everything has grown. I grew up here, and the only time I left was to go to college about an hour away.  We currently have about 30,000 people in our city, but it continues to grow daily. When I grew up, we had one red light, a few places to shop, and just a handful of restaurants- most being family owned and operated. Now,…

  • **Weekend Recap** Mother’s Day 2022 {5.9.2022}

    Wow, is it Monday already? We had a very busy weekend celebrating all the Moms in our lives. Today, I’m sharing all about our weekend.  Friday, at school, we enjoyed a salad bar, with our team, for lunch. It was the best thing, and I wish we had been doing it all year.  I went out to recess Friday afternoon to talk with some teachers, and the sky was looking very uneasy. About 15 minutes after this picture was taken, some very strong wind and very hard rain came blowing in. Luckily, we were back inside.  Saturday, we celebrated Joey’s Mom with a lunch at one of our favorite spots.…

    Cheers for Friday!! Are you guys counting down the days until Summer break? We are in our house! We only have 15 more school days with students! Woo Hoo!  Per the usual, I’m linking up with the blogs AlittlebitofEverything and Momfessionals and sharing our favorites from the week. Addison had pajama day on Monday, and I snagged her a pair from Little Sleepies a while back. These are so sweet, and they are so soft! I could just melt in these! They also have sizes for babies, boys, and even adults!  Wildberry Ice Cream Viscose Set After school, we had to run to grab a few things. 😉 On Tuesday, she wanted to take…

  • **Southwest Chicken Rice Bowls** {5.4.2022}

    Grilling season is here, and I made this delicious recipe the other day and foresee many more nights of making it this Summer! It was So GOOD!! Believe me, if you start making it, you will want it often! You will crave it! Trust Me!  Happy Wednesday and Happy Grilling!  Step 1 – Grill your chicken breasts and some corn (you can use frozen corn… but grilled is always the way to go in my opinion), slice the corn off the cob and slice/dice up the chicken. Step 2 – While the chicken is cooking, cook 1 1/2 cups Basmati rice.  Follow the package directions. Remove it from the heat…

    Hello May!! We are so happy to see you! Wow, this year is flying by! We just have a few more weeks of school, and it will be summer! We are counting down!  Today, I’m sharing all about our weekend which consisted of a lot of outside time!  Friday, I drove down to get a pedicure right after school. After that, I met Joey at Costco to grab our usual items.  I picked up Addison at Joey’s Mom’s house. Then, we went home, ate dinner, and settled in for an early bedtime. It was glorious!  Saturday morning, we got up early and headed north, to the mountains.  My parents camped…

    Hello Friday!! We are so happy you’re here!  Per the usual, I’m linking up with the blogs AlittlebitofEverything and Momfessionals and sharing our favorites from the week. This week was Addison’s school’s Teacher Appreciation week. We tried to do lots of things to show her teachers all the love.  It was also our school’s Administrative Professional’s Day on Wednesday. I showed them some love with some cookies.  Tuesday was Sunglasses day for A. She was loving sporting her shades.  Heart Sunglasses And…. Thursday was Nerd day. Addison loved her outfit!  We had Spirit Night at the Ice Cream Shoppe in our Downtown area. We love to shop small, and we love ice cream! So,…
