This kids are off of school today, which is soooo nice. However, we still have piano and Jane had her first virtual OIT updose appointment this morning.
Our week last week was full of lots of Valentine happiness and good days…
I’ve been working on making a gallery wall for this little spot in our home. We really don’t hang up many pictures and I’m feeling the need for some cozy photos. We used to have a bookcase here, but with the piano also being in the room, it was starting to feel cramped. So we moved the piano over to where the bookcase was and moved the bookcase to the basement. I’m still playing around with this space and hope to get actual photos in those frames, too! LOL! I’m the queen of not finishing projects, so this is on my to-list this week!
Eliza and I finished up her Mary Poppins Valentine’s box and we think it turned out really cute! I realize this is a bit extra, but I was really surprised with how many kids didn’t make Valentine boxes in her class!
I took our neighbor boy, Warren, and had an extra friend, Ashlyn, to take to school on Valentine’s Day morning…
Jane had her preschool Valentine’s Day party and girlfriend loaded up on the goodies and basically ate everything in one sitting. LOL!
I was sad that parents weren’t invited, but it allowed for me to decorate the kids’ doors!
Jane and I were able to attend Eliza’s Valentine’s Day Party – it’s soooo weird that Henry doesn’t get these parties anymore…and it’s even weirder that the last one I attended was when he was in third grade!
It makes me sad that I don’t have a single picture of Henry from this day, but he left early for school and then was in a tweenager mood the rest of the day. He wouldn’t even wear a Valentine’s Day shirt. It made me so sad! Usually Henry is very positive, but he was definitely feeling a little down.
Later in the day, Chick Fil A came to our town for a fundraiser and you bet your bananas I was one of the first people in line! I even texted Jon that if he wanted me to be his Valentine he’d buy me Chick Fil A! LOL! No chocolates or card for me, I was soooo happy with Chick Fil A instead!!!
Eliza on the other hand… Oh my gosh, I’m still cracking up over how much she was done being in line. She’s the one who wanted to go with me….all I can do is laugh…
Clearly she was thrilled… Lawd help me through her teenager days…
I took several selfies with the best Valentine’s gift ever! Bahahahaha!
Throughout the weekend I ran and ran some more for a challenge I needed to catch up on – 50 miles of running by the end of the month. I was able to log in just under 19 miles of running over the long weekend to catch up and I was super happy with that!
Also, it wouldn’t be a basement workout without a child or a husband needing me…
Hello Friends! Happy Friday to one and all! We’ve had a busy week over here, but it’s been a good one. Actually, the weeks are only going to become busier and busier until the kids get out of school in June. I’m trying to take it day by day. Does anyone else feel like May…
You guys, I’m soooo behind on all-things-blogging. We’ve have a busy summer over here, that’s for sure. And now our kids head back to school in a little over two weeks and I’m not quite sure how I feel about it. One part of me is all sad and I’m SURE there will be some…
Welp, the kids have been in school for well over a month now and here I am, just now blogging about it! Better late than never, I suppose. I have about a gazillion back-to-school pictures, but I’ll play nice and only post fourteen of them. 😉 You guys, the first day of school was no…
Happy Friday, Friends! Today I come to you with my Friday Favorites! ONE Henry’s 11th Birthday Tomorrow is our Henry’s 11th Birthday. I’m not ready…like, I’m not ready for the party, nor am I prepared at all for my once little Henry Bug to be turning 11. Watching these babies grow up is both…
Happy FRIDAY! Time to link up for some Five on Friday fun! This shower curtain! So, we’re in the middle of a mini bathroom reno. The kids’ bathroom/guest bathroom has desperately needed a new vanity for a year or two now. Apparently the sleek, lack of countertop or storage vanity that Jon and I picked…
Happy Friday to one and all! Can you guys believe that Halloween is just around the corner?! Gasp! We’ve been crazy busy over here and while I’m not mad about it, I certainly wasn’t bothered to have had a couple of extra-curricular activities canceled this past week. It most definitely added in some breathing room…
