Man it’s tough having to get back into our regular schedule after having a long weekend especially since our Valentine’s Day weekend was pretty darn perfect minus a few times I needed a slight time out from the kids. The kids both had parties at school and it doesn’t get much cuter than seeing little kids open all their valentines from friends. I was pretty proud of our homemade valentines this year, but let me tell you, some parents went all out. You can definitely tell it’s the age of Pinterest. Saturday night J and I watched No Escape before going out for a late (9:30pm) dinner at our favorite…

Weekend Recap
Good morning!! I’m in a rush so I’m going to let the pictures do the majority of the talking. The weather was beautiful this weekend and we spent a lot of time celebrating our big seven year old. Friday morning before school. Both J and I have been obsessed with these bagel bites from a local bakery here in town. They make all their bagels from scratch and are seriously addicting. Friday night we got Olive Garden to go per the birthday boy’s request and celebrated at home with cake and presents (his real party is next weekend). Saturday and Sunday were both beautiful and it was nice to not…

Weekend Recap
Well hello there Monday. May you be quick and full of lots of good things! How was everybody’s weekend. I knocked out quite a few things this weekend including finishing painting our playroom, cleaning up my Instagram account (follow me here) and trying out a recipe from Pinterest that had been pinned way too long ago. It ended up being a hit for 3 out of the 4 of us. Spoiler alert, it wasn’t the children that didn’t like it. Insert eye roll emoji. In case you are looking for something new, this White Cheese & Chicken Lasagna was all sorts of cheesy and pretty easy to make, but be prepared it makes way…

Weekend Recap
Although my weekend isn’t officially over (thank you MLK) I’m going to go ahead and recap what we’ve been up to so far. Since one of my New Years Resolutions was to not drink soda for an entire month, I tried out this Starbucks Refreshers in Strawberry Lemonade. I was a little hesitant at first considering the description says sparkling green coffee beverage?!? but don’t let that scare you off, it’s actually pretty tasty. After 8 months of living in our new house I’m finally getting around to decorating the rooms. Jack’s was the first to get done since he’s two and has no opinion on how I decorate. The six year…

Weekend Recap
Hello Monday, we meet again. Jack’s been battling a nasty little cough and cold this week and after providing such loving care to him, he thanked me by sneezing, coughing, and just non-stop breathing in my face and now I have the lovely thing. My snot is still clear (tmi?) so I’ve just been taking otc meds and keeping Kleenex in business. Anywho, despite my cold we headed to dinner at Texas Roadhouse Friday night where the cinnamon butter and multiple birthdays kept the kids occupied while waiting for our food. The man at the table next to us was celebrating his 70th birthday and after a little coaxing from…
