Weekend Recap

 

Hello Monday! Happy Memorial Day, friends! May we all remember and honor who and what this day is really about. I am grateful today and every day for the many men and women who have lost their lives fighting for our country. 

Friday after I got home from work, we went out to eat...and then I had to get a new car battery😩. Ugh! But we were so glad that we decided to take my car to dinner, otherwise this would have happened to me before work on Saturday morning! 

On Saturday, Caleb and I both had to work. When I got home from work, I unloaded the dishwasher and cleaned up the kitchen. 

Have I mentioned that I love a clean kitchen?? 

Sunday morning we decided to just sleep in. I think we both woke up around 8. 

I got up and made my coffee and did a few days of The Bible Recap. I'm about a week behind😬. 

I put out our flag...

And then I....

Got back in bed to read for a bit😊.

I read for about an hour before I got ready for the day. 

My OOTD for running tons of errands! 

And of course a Gresham stack. 

We went to Ulta, Marshall's, Lowe's, Aldi, Kroger. Then home to unload groceries. 

I made blackberry-peach freezer jam! 

I'm usually not really a tomato person, but (of course) Tik Tok has influenced me to try a tomato sandwich. and these looked really good! 

And then we went back to Lowe's and Aldi....

I've been eyeing this patio set for a few months, and we finally took the plunge today. We also found a fire pit at Aldi and decided to go back for it. 

I read for a while on the back porch. 

I typed this post on the back porch. 

I think we'll be spending lots of time on the back porch this summer, hopefully anyway! 

Have a safe and blessed Memorial Day! I'll meet you back here tomorrow morning for my May book review! Can you believe we're already at the end of another month??

Let's Look: January 2026

 Happy Wednesday!! Let's Look is one of my very favorite blog link ups and after not doing it last year, I am ready for it in 2026! I am linking up with Shay and Erika for this monthly series! Today, we are LOOKING at..... THINGS WE OUTSOURCE WITHOUT REGRET. Ok, there are so many things you can outsource that I just would rather do myself. I love to grocery shop. I think I would be weirded out by someone else doing my laundry. A house keeper is just not something we currently need or really want. BUT, there are occasions when outsourcing is just what needs to be done. Grocery Delivery/Pickup We don't do this often, but when we do it's pretty nice. That being said, I am usually ready to get back in the grocery store myself! Food Delivery This is another one we do not do often, but a Wednesday free delivery from Wingstop has sucked me in a few times 😂. And of course, pizza delivery is always nice! Plus, we can get food delivered to the school I work out, so that's nice e...

Friday Favorites {4.2.26}

 Happy THURSDAY. My days are getting so mixed up with a Friday holiday haha! Posting Friday Faves a day early since tomorrow is Good Friday. Whoop whoop! We're getting a 7Brew!! I'm gonna let the new wear off before I go, but dang I am so excited for this! Have y'all tried it?? My sister gave me this MacKenzie Child's cookie jar for my bday and I love!! I made some white chocolate, peanut, and M&M clusters and they looked so cute in it! I will try just about anything once haha, but I finally jumped on the Tik Tok bandwagon and grabbed this facial brush for lymphatic drainage. My mind could very easily be playing tricks on me, but I'm gonna say I see a difference! Got mind from Amazon! And I cannot close out this post without mentioning Autism Awareness and Acceptance Month! Please, please, please educate yourself on what it means to have Autism, how to explain it to your children, how to advocate, how to include, how to help- all the things!! Please remember, if...

 And just like that.....it's CHRISTMAS BREAK! And my last post of 2025! But before all of that, let's get into some faves from my week! Linking up with Erika and Andrea. Some Christmas funnies for ya.... 😂😂😂 "Underground Spirit Week" We dress up or do something silly and the students have no idea, so it's constant confusion and laughter! So fun! Monday- PJ day. Tuesday-  Anything but a bag. Wednesday- Favorite Christmas song or movie character. Oh Christmas Tree, Rocking Around the Christmas Tree, or as one student said...the Rockefeller Christmas Tree! Thursday- Christmas tree topper meets hat. This one did not last long in my hair...hahahah! Today is another PJ day for "Kinderland"! My name is Maddie, and I am obsessed with good smelling laundry.... These both smell AMAZING. The Wicked one smells exactly like the perfume I have been wearing- Jo Malone English Pear and Sweet Pea. Makes me sad that it's limited edition... I was looking for some go...
