Ahhh, well hello friends! I am sitting down in hopes of making it through writing up this whole post without having to go tend to my poor Lucas, who came down earlier today with a pretty nasty stomach something or other. I mean, seriously, I'm just OVER IT. The poor kid has had his fair share this ...
The Fun is at the Bar
Well, we are certainly coming off of another great weekend! After a fun Friday night with some neighbors over to play wayyy past kiddo bedtimes, Jay and I were lucky to be able to sleep in until after 8am on Saturday. Incredible! I met up with someone that I was selling some old chairs to (thanks ...
Our Getaway to Turning Stone–Part 1!
It has taken me much longer to write this than I anticipated, but I guess that’s what happens when you’re busy at home AND you have a hundred photos to go through after an amazing time away! So I’ll likely be breaking it into two parts so I don’t lose ya in a 20 minute long post to read. ; ...
Movies Are Expensive
Three cheers for weekday, day dates!! Jay and I both had/have a few vacation days left with work that we needed to use up before the end of the year, so we both decided to take a random Tuesday (when Lucas is in preschool/with my MIL and Alex is at daycare) and enjoy a little day date, just ...
Date Night and Feeling Wiped
Well I’d say that this weekend went by SUPER fast. Sheesh! I think I got maybe, oh I don’t know, two things done off of my to-do list? I had originally hoped to maybe make a couple of freezer meals and a couple of baking recipes to share down the road on the blog, but my lack of energy got the ...
House Projects, A Fun Date Night, and More!
Man, that weekend went by fast. Anyone else agree?! I suppose it could have something to do with the fact that we were on the go pretty much all weekend long. I always joke that I make up for my lack of steps during the week on the weekends because, I swear, some days I feel like I barely ever ...
Our Failed Attempts at Date Night In
Thank you to Blue Apron for sponsoring this post! So Jay and I have had this thing lately where we say that we’re going to try to have a “date night in” at least one night a week. I think we’ve been saying this for maybe the past month or so…but we have yet to really make it happen. So instead, ...
My New Favorite Martini
I’m pretty sure I’ve mentioned this on here before, but if I had to choose a day of the week that is just the absolute worst, it’s Tuesday. Jay is totally on board with me on that one, too. I mean, with Monday, you’ve got the business of a new week happening. Wednesday, you’re half way to the ...
Friday Date Night and Feeling Bittersweet
Not only was this past weekend awesome because it was Mother’s Day, but it was also pretty great thanks to a fun date night on Friday night and a casual Saturday spent at home. For Friday, Lucas actually went to have a sleepover with his other grandparents (after having a sleepover at my in-laws’ ...
Only Two and a Half Months Late {Anniversary Celebration}
You want to know what’s really awkward? Walking in to an appliance store, having about 20 people staring at you, and finding out that they’re having some sort of “designers meeting.” But you want to know what makes it equally as fun? Having one of the reps at the store understand the awkwardness ...
