Everyday Maddie

 Happy Friday!! I am linking up with Erika and Andrea today to share some faves from my week. I loved this pasta with a vodka sauce for my lunches! Wicked cookies...umm YES PLEASE. I grabbed this eternity band from Amazon, and the quality is SO good for cubic zirconia! It's 14k gold plated, so it should last. Next to my real diamonds, I really cannot tell much difference. How CUTE are my new shoes ?? Don't mind my socks, I tried them on super quick yesterday afternoon when they came in. Obsessed! And they are currently on sale! I also got this pullover from Amazon , and the quality is also great! Super soft but not too hot, plus I got lots of compliments- even one that said looks like Anthro! Have a happy Friday and a great weekend!

Happy Thursday!! Today I am linking up with Holly and Patty for the September edition of Monthly Musings. 1. Share how you decorate for fall. Just simple touches here and there. I found this Jack-O-Lantern a couple years ago at Homegoods, and it's my very favorite! 2. Halloween decor- yes or no?  YES. I especially love riding through neighborhoods to see their fall/Halloween decor.  3. Pumpkins, corn stalks, or hay bales?  PUMPKINS. 4. Favorite fall fashion pieces? A good pair of boots or booties, a great pair of jeans, a cute cardigan. 5. How do you transition your wardrobe? Mostly just with fall colors at first. It is still super hot here in Mississippi, so sweaters are really out of the question.  This was a fave fall outfit last year! (I'm kinda missing my long hair now...) 6. Do you decorate inside and out? Right now, I only have inside decor. Once it cools off, I really want to get some mums and some pumpkins for our front porch steps. 7. Favorite fall scents? ...

 Well happy first day of FALL! I hope you all had a great weekend! I am linking up with Holly and Sarah today to share a bit about my weekend. Friday was a fun day with a dinosaur parade at school and then a happy hour after school to honor a faculty member leaving. Then, Libbey and Cayden came to stay for the weekend! Caleb made smash burgers- they were too good I forgot to take a pic! Saturday morning, Caleb made breakfast. These Great Value brand biscuits are seriously the best! Like, better than homemade. Dressed and ready and then on the road! We went to the jewelry store where my engagement and wedding rings came from so Lib could look around 😉. We stopped at Chili's on the way home. We also of course had to pop in Homegoods! Surprisingly, I left with nothing. But, I did find a cute pair of sneakers at Dick's. I had to order them, but they will probably make in my faves post on Friday! Sunday, we went to Mass at the church that my school is an outreach of. They were hono...

 Happy Wednesday!! I was getting in bed on Sunday night when a post idea came to my mind... Here are my "bedside essentials" that I think everyone should have! 1. Lip balm I love my lip balm SO much. I have one on my nighsttand, in my bathroom, in my purse, and I always have extras on hand! I use Cliganic and love all the different scents. 2. Airpods/headphones I also love my Airpods! I grab them if I am folding laundry or making the bed, because doing those things is just more fun with music! 3. Scrunchie I wear a scrunchie in my hair every single day. They are just so easy to throw my hair into a bun in the mornings or at night before bed! 4. Water Duh. I try to drink lots of water always and having it close by makes that easier. Plus, waking up in the middle of the night needing water really stinks. So, I like to be prepared. 5. Lotion Do y'all see my Aveeno peeking behind the lamp?? It's lavender scented, so it's perfect for nighttime! I have super dry hands r...

 Happy Monday!! I took an unintentional blog break last week, and it was honestly so nice! I apparently needed a break this weekend too, because I did not take many pics. We really didn't do a lot, so that was nice! So, here are some highlights... First off, I slept in on Saturday and Sunday. A win! We made "football food" on Saturday. Always a favorite! Yesterday, I nearly sliced my finger tip off cutting a lemon. But still managed to paint my nails.😂 (Color is Lincoln Park After Dark by OPI) And I did lots of school work. Also got some pretty roses from Kroger! Have a great Monday!

 Happy Friday!! I hope you all had a great week! I am linking up with Andrea and Erika to share some favorites from my week. This was a short school week for us with Labor Day and a PD day for us on Tuesday. So, that was a fave! At our PD, they catered lunch for us from Bless This Food, which is another favorite! That bread is delish! This had to be in the post.... I vividly remember thinking I needed to screenshot my alarm going off on Wednesday. Why? No clue! But I thought it was funny and needed to include it. 😂 The weather may not be on the same page as me, but I am officially in full Fall mode. Red beans and rice, red wine, and a fall candle burning makes for a super cozy and delish dinner! Have a great weekend!!

 Hello Monday on a Tuesday. Hello long weekend. Hello SEPTEMBER!! Praise the LORD we have made it to the 'ber months! I think this is truly my favorite time of the year! Here's a look at our long Labor Day weekend.... Friday night dinner was Chickfila. Always good!! Saturday was a lazy day watching football! Caleb ran to the store to get the things to make our favorite rotel dip and pigs in a blanket. He also came home with.... these. He says I have ruined him. 😂 Our dinner for watching Ole Miss! Sunday morning pumpkin iced coffee in my Glinda glass! YUM. Lots of MBF listening happened this weekend. I was going to make a list of my faves, but I honestly love them all! Got ready for church- probably the first time I have done my full makeup routine in months. Post church lunch. Yummm. It had been way too long! We grocery shopped and then went home and got comfy! We kept trying to come up with something to do yesterday but could never come up with anything. We went to Marshalls ...
