What's Up Wednesday {April 2023}

It's that time again! I'm linking up with Sheaffer and Shay to share what's been up with our month! I can't believe May is nearly here!  1: WHAT WE'RE EATING THIS WEEK:  Monday night we had shrimp, salad, and mac and cheese.  Last night we had red beans and rice!  I'm willing to be that tonight I'll have Chick-fil-A in the car!  The rest of the week I'll be eating all that Disney food.😁 As for what Caleb is eating the rest of the week- I have no idea!  2: WHAT I'M REMINISCING ABOUT:  All week, my Snapchat memories have been last years Orlando trip, as well as all the quarantine photos! Is it weird to say I miss that??? Seriously where did that baby go?! Now we're off for his FIRST Disney experience. I can't wait!  3: WHAT I'M LOVING:  THIS is what I've been really loving lately. I really like this flavor! And it definitely gives me energy.  4: WHAT WE'VE BEEN UP TO:  Oh not much. I feel like this month was crazy busy, though. My

Weekend Recap

 Happy Tuesday, friends! I totally dropped the ball and didn't put together a post for yesterday.😬 I'm back today, though and bringing you my weekend recap a day late!  Friday night we went to Mexican for dinner, and when we got home I watched Taylor Swifts's concert via Tik Tok Live. I'm trying to make peace with the fact that I'm not going to a concert...in person at least. 😉 I had to work on Saturday, and Caleb helped a friend move.  Coffee and Bible Recap before work!  My Mimi sent me this picture of my nephew. Isn't he the cutest Police Man you've ever seen?? Here's my Sunday church outfit! It's dress and jean jacket season, y'all!  Yesterday I did my usual Monday things and packed for Disney! We'll be there for my sister's cheer competition, and then a couple of days at the parks!  I grabbed this cute tshirt from Amazon to wear one day to the parks. I'm planning to wear it with a black tennis skirt.  I've been wanting a t

Friday Favorites {4.21.23}

  YAY for Friday and the fact that this time next week, I'll be in Orlando! We'll be there for my sister's VERY LAST cheer competition! And of course a quick little visit to Disney!  Just a heads up, next Wednesday will be my last day of blog posting until May 2. Wednesday will be the monthly What's Up Wednesday link up, and then I'll post my April Book Review on Tuesday, May 2!  Ok, now for some faves from my week!  First up, Monday I had an early appointment to get to before I headed back to Starkville, so I grabbed Chick-fil-A on my way out of town! I tried the new Watermelon Mint Lemonade, and oh my goodness... it is DELISH! I'll definitely keep getting this as long as they have it available!  Next up, my flowers a blooming!!  I was kind of afraid that I would kill them, but they're doing pretty great!  Here a few treasures I cut to have in our kitchen!  I have been loving my 40 oz Stanley so much, that I decided to grab it in a new color in the 30 oz!

Closet Chat: Gresham Edition

  Good morning and happy Thursday! I'm here with another edition of my Closet Chat series!   If you ask anyone who knows me, they will tell you hands down these bracelets are my favorite accessory! These are the  Maui bracelets from Gresham Jewelry!  I have them in the freshwater pearls, gold Florence beads, as well as the La Tua Storia beads.  I put together a couple of stacks to show just how versatile and CUTE they are!  I got this initial stack to take with me on our honeymoon and wore them just about the whole time! You can "Swim, Sweat, Shower" in them! These are from the La Tua Storia collection. (Colors from left to right are: Tropical Pink, Pink, Bubblegum) I wear this every single day on my wrist with my watch. (Color is Off White) This and the cross are also from the La Tua Storia collection. Also included are other symbols and numbers! You can customize your stack however you please! (Color is Baby Pink) These are the Florence beads. I only have the gold, but

3 Tips for a Cozy Home

 Hey Wednesday! Today I'm sharing my 3 tips for making your home COZY! I'm all about coziness year round!  Here are my tips:  1. Lamps. I looooove my little lamps around our main living areas.  This is what I see when I'm doing The Bible Recap. 🙂 And this is my view looking into the kitchen from the living room. It just looks so calm and peaceful! 2. Nice Scents. I love having a candle burning. I think it's just so warm and inviting!  I love this one by Sand + Fog. The scent is Mediterranean.  If you don't like to burn candles, try a candle warmer!  I got this one from Walmart and really like it. I have accidentally left it on overnight a couple of times, an all is still well, so I'd say it's a safer option than burning wicks! Volcano by Capri Blue is always a favorite!  If you don't have a Pura yet, you should get one!  This is obviously the safest option if you have young kids, pets, or don't like wax candles! Some of my favorite scents are Volcan

Mom's Slow Cooker Roast

I'm back with another suuuuuper simple recipe for a busy weeknight!  Ingredients:  1 chuck roast 1 can of cream of mushroom soup 1 can of cream of chicken soup Baby carrots Potatoes (I used a bag of small gold potatoes and cut into bit size pieces) Directions:  Place all ingredients in your slow cooker, and let it cook on low for 8-10 hours. We always like to eat our roast with rolls!  Enjoy!

Weekend Recap

 Hey to a new Monday!  We kicked our weekend off with a Hibachi dinner on Friday night!  YUM! Saturday morning's view... Coffee and greens. I've been drinking Bloom greens, and they're just ok. While I drank that.... I did The Bible Recap, and really loved this verse.  Ready as I'll ever be for a Saturday work day.😂  Saturday night we went to my sister's senior party.... where we had crawfish. My date.💗 Sunday morning church outfit. After church we had lunch at our favorite Mexican restaurant. After lunch, we gave my nephew his birthday gift.... Safe to say he LOVES it!  We spent the afternoon at Caleb's parents house where we had crawfish again!  Ended the evening with my best little buddy. Ugh, he melts me. (This was about 5 minutes after he sprayed me with his new water gun.😂) Today is a grocery shopping and getting things back in order for the week day.
