So how was the first day of homeschooling?? After the first official digital learning day, I can actually say that it went better than I was expecting. I only yelled once, the kids got some work done, I got some work done, we cooked together, they read, and only 2 of the 3 kids cried! That’s a successful day in these parts! I hope the day went smoothly for you too. Whether you followed a color-coded chart and marked every[Read more]
Can you even believe that we’re in the last week of August??!! The kids are thinking about Halloween costumes already and I can barely get the calendar updated for the week ahead. But there’s always time for shopping, right?! Here are just a few of the things I’ve been obsessed with this month- what about you? I had been looking for a long, gray, jersey robe for so long to just lounge around the house in. We keep the house[Read more]
Happy Monday, friends! How was your weekend? Anything fun? We had a pretty regular weekend, but it was great. I don’t know what it was- if the stars were aligned, or I just wasn’t super stressed , or everyone was just in a great mood, but we just had a great weekend! Saturday we all took our time getting up, which is always so nice. Scott and I have a kind-of unwritten weekend routine- since I get up and get[Read more]
Happy Monday, friends! I haven’t done a post like this in quite a while and thought I’d share the things I’m saying hello to on this overcast Monday… Hello Quiet House The kids are back in school today after a week off for mid-winter break. As much as I loved the break and time off with the kiddos, I am so glad to get back into our routine and get their schedules back to normal. My kids thrive on routine, and a[Read more]
Hello Friends and Happy Halloween! I hope you had a wonderful weekend, a good start to your week, and are excited about Trick or Treating tonight! The kids are THRILLED, of course, and I am looking forward to walking around the neighborhood in the chilly fall air, with my drink in hand, and stealing the kids’ good candy! The #candytax is real, y’all! I am a bit behind (what’s new) in sharing our goings-on, but wanted to share our weekend and everything[Read more]
Hello Friends! I hope you had a wonderful three-day Labor Day Weekend! We were able to head out of town for the weekend, and have a *few* pics to share if you’re interested in that kind of thing… Friday afternoon, we picked the kids up from school and wanted to do something a little different! We headed straight to Michael’s and let the kids pick out some craft kits and supplies for a little Friday night crafting. We hit up[Read more]
Hello Friends! Hope you had a wonderful weekend! We braved the torrential rains and had a productive Saturday, then watched The Girl on the Train (movie was so-so, and per the usual, the book was about a thousand times better). Sunday we had a great morning in church, and then cheered on our Falcons as they became NFC champions! On to the Super Bowl! What a year so far!! Here’s a few more things we’re saying hello to today… Hello[Read more]
Hello Friends! I hope you had a wonderful long weekend! We made the most of ours- we went to our local Farmer’s Market and out for Pizza, I made a solo trip to Trader Joe’s (seriously- HEAVEN), and we made a fun family trip to the zoo! So forgive me for being a day late on my Meal Plan Monday post- but I have my plan to share this week! Last week we ate off Scott’s birthday party leftovers pretty[Read more]
Happy Monday friends! First of all, I apologize for my unintentional absence last week! We are in the end-of-the-school-year homestretch, and I am OVERWHELMED with end of year celebrations, teacher appreciation, etc., etc., etc…times three!! SO, I was bogged down with about three thousand things, but everytime I sat down to write for the blog…NOTHING. But, I am BACK! Secondly, I hope you all had a wonderful Mother’s Day yesterday! We had a lovely day (the weather was GORGEOUS), and I had[Read more]
Hi Friends! Back to reality after Spring Break, womp-waaaaahhhh. But that’s okay, we had a GREAT spring break (will share a post soon!), and I think the kids are actually excited to get back to school and gt back to soccer! But still, I am anxious for summer to be here!! I had slacked quite a bit in the last few weeks on my meal plans, but we are back on the healthy eating wagon, so I am back to[Read more]
