Friday Favorites: 9/18/2020

Hello Friends!!  I have a random assortment for Friday Favorites with Andrea and Erika.

ONE: 

Since the temps seem to be dropping and are no longer in triple digits, B thought it would be great to camp with C last Saturday in the backyard.  D and I (the wiser ones) decided to stay in the house.  Well, it was great and all but it was still HOT. My little campers only lasted an hour and 22 minutes.  HA!!! I know this will not be the last time. I just love that B tries to create these memories for the boys.  Before they went out, C made a little trail mix for his camping adventure.  It was simple just pretzels, chocolate chips, and marshmallows but he loved helping measure things and putting them in his baggie.  

TWO: Okay, the next 2 faves are food items but we are just loving them so I thought you might too.  First up, chocolate Lucky Charms!  We had gotten the original for C and he seemed to like it. I happened to be on the Target app looking for the Lucky Charm marshmallows (still looking) when C spotted the chocolate Lucky Charms. I prefer chocolate cereal so we both squealed with excitement and I added a box to my Target pick up.  This cereal is so yummy and I usually just have a little handful as a snack or when I am craving chocolate.  Seriously, much better than the original!

THREE: Costco fave alert!!! I don't know if you are like me when I go into places like Costco but I get overwhelmed because there is so much. I don't know what to grab or I don't know what is good.  We have been shopping there a little more and these buttery croissants are delicious.  If you shop at Costco, definitely add them to your cart! 


FOUR: Fall decor!  I love decorating for fall and it was fun sharing on the link up with Emily and Sarah. You can check mine out HERE and I can't wait to share my fall fashion. 


I’ve been a blog reader for years  and I am definitely a newbie at this blogging thing but it has been so fun having this for myself. Being a SAHM, has its hard days and this little space has been good for my heart, mind, and soul. 

I appreciate you stopping by and reading.   Have a great weekend!

Happy Wednesday, friends!  Today, I am joining Anne from  In Residence  for her monthly  Currently   post.  The first Wednesday of the month she provides a one word prompt to discuss and share. These are so fun to write up and to read.   Currently Arranging: Our  new rug! We had been waiting on one we ordered back in December that was a Magnolia rug but after the date of arrival getting pushed back several times we just decided to get something in stock. We ordered both rugs from the furniture store we got our sectional. We are loving our new rug!  Currently Craving:  Ahhhh, without a doubt my mom’s home cooking. Nuff said!!  Currently Discussing: We have definitely been going round and round with the “what if’s” about my possible job opportunities. It’s a little exciting and scary to think about having to make a decision.  Lots of praying going on too!  Currently Enjoying: We got the pics back from the “personality photo” session.  Y’all, they are precious!  If you have older kids thi

Honoring Dr. King

Image
Hey there!   I am linking up with a great group of bloggers:  In honor of Dr. King, I wanted to share what I’ll be doing to remember and honor him. What remarkable words!  I thought it would be fun for the boys to color a picture of MLK. There are tons on  Pinterest but I really like this one from Crayola . If you have older kiddos, you can always google “facts about MLK.” It’s  a great way to discuss and learn more about him with your family. Martin Luther King, Jr. is taught in textbooks at school but how amazing would it be to bring the conversation into our homes about MLK and the Civil Rights Movement.  Did you know that MLK basically skipped high school? He attended Morehouse College when has was 15! He skipped 9th - 12th grade.  That is one of the facts I learned while researching about him.  I’ll leave you with a few more nuggets. Let’s DO better and BE better!  Make it a great Monday, friends.  -A-

Friday Favorites: 1/22/21

Ahhhhhh, it's my favorite day of the week! Anyone else feel like January is flying by?! Kinda loving it because spring is coming.  I am joining Erika and Andrea for their fabulous link up:  ONE:    We went on a little trip to the Tyler Zoo on Sunday.  It is a smaller zoo than Dallas or Ft. Worth but I tend to enjoy them even more because it is more manageable with the boys. We saw some great animals!  This longhorn was beautiful!  The lion was very active and kept roaring.   He was so loud and could be heard all over the zoo.  These guys scared me because I thought the cage was empty until I spotted them in the corner.   The only downfall for me was that there were way too many people not wearing masks for my comfort level.  We have visited 2 other smaller zoos in the past few months and generally most people will wear a mask even though we are outdoors. We kept our distance from people, avoided the enclosed areas, and avoided the animals that were crowded. It was a fun zoo and t
