Hey hey! Happy Tuesday, and happy last day of March to you all. This has been a crazy month for us, and weather has certainly been, well, crappy. So I’m totally looking forward to a fresh April, which will hopefully bring some warmth with it. Because, seriously. Snowing on March 30th? Not cool, Mother Nature.
First things first, I made a few changes to the fonts on here yesterday, which seemed to be the biggest piece of feedback I received (I was with ya, too small and hard to read!). Hopefully the updates are looking good on your end now?? Any better?
So since I had a couple different posts for you yesterday for a Monday, I never got the chance to fill you in on some weekend highlights. Honestly, it was a pretty quiet weekend. I only left the house once between Saturday and Sunday and that was to take care of the grocery shopping. Other than that, we were homebodies, which was fine by me. It’s nice to have weekends like that once in a while, you know?
Friday night, however, was a different story, and oh did I have fun! Me and a few of the girls went to go watch our friend Erica perform in a play (it was The Marvelous Wondrettes) at a local church. Erica was fabulous, as was the rest of the show, and we had a few good laughs.
By the time the show ended, a little after 10pm, we decided to all head out for a drink (despite the fact that I was about ready to pass out…Friday night bedtimes rarely happen after 10pm!). We all had a quick beer and ended up staying until last call, chatting away about anything and everything.
I love having any extra time with those girls!
So like I mentioned, Saturday and Sunday were pretty low key. We did some work around the house, I did the grocery shopping, and did a lot of hanging around in our cozies and our PJ’s.
Jay dressed Lucas on Sunday this way, and he swears he didn’t do that on purpose…
Either way, I don’t care. The twinning was adorable.
Oh yeah, we also had Burger King for dinner on Saturday night and it was awesome.
We were both feeling pretty lazy when it came to dinner time and we had a coupon that came in the mail so we figured, hey, let’s do it. Whopper Jr. + French fries, baby. Do you guys remember when I had major Whopper cravings when I was pregnant with Lucas? Well, don’t worry…I’m not pregnant.
For the first time in months, we were also finally able to bring Lucas outside to play! This winter was just brutal – it was either too cold, or there was too much snow for him to even walk around. But now that the snow is almost gone (!!) and the temps were closer to 40, we had to get out of the house for a bit.
He had a blast walking/running around, getting pulled in his sled, throwing snowballs, and eating snow like his daddy.
Ohhh, I can’t wait to be able to get out there again without the snow.
I also got some extra cuddles from my snuggle bug. Lately, his MO is to get as close as humanly possible to us while sitting on the couch. Never mind the fact that he had a full cushion up for grabs…
He’s still our buddy.
Well, that pretty much covers most of the highlights from our weekend! I’d ask how all of your weekends were, but now that it’s Tuesday, I feel like I missed my window. So instead, how about I ask what you guys are looking forward to in the week ahead? Any fun weeknight plans? Good dinners on the agenda?

Sometimes you just need a good burger! And by good, I mean questionable meat and greasy.
Courtney says
LOL, so so true ;)
Linz @ Itz Linz says
i have friday off school (work) and my sister is going to take william’s ONE YEAR pictures! yikes when did that happen!?!
Courtney says
Holy crap, that went FAST!
Brynn says
Lucas with that ring around his mouth is so cute! My boys dressed the same for church on Sunday and it was possibly the cutest thing ever. This week I am looking forward to Mitchell’s first Easter…once I get past this pesky work stuff.
Courtney says
Hahaha, I hear ya Brynn ;)
Britt@MyOwnBalance says
What a cutie pie!
I love the new fonts!
Liv @ Healthy Liv says
The twinning is the absolute cutest! And I’ve always loved how you call sweatpant outfits “cozies.”
Courtney says
Hahaha, YES! Love me some cozies!!
Christen says
I’m impressed that you stayed out that late! I’m so lame that I’m in bed by 10:30 most weekend nights now! Love the new fonts, by the way!
Courtney says
I was impressed by it too, haha ;)
Alyssa @ Renaissancerunnergirl says
What a cutie! My first friend just had a baby, and he is so adorable, every time I walk by a baby clothing store I want to go in and buy all the shoes and outfits and dress him up!
tiff @ love, sweat, & beers says
Awww, that’s a great photo of your boys! <3 I didn't really leave the house this weekend either, but that's not such a good thing for someone who works from home. Cabin fever!! At least I had friends come over though, so that made it totally worth it.
Courtney says
Hahaha, cabin fever for SURE!
Ellen @ My Uncommon Everyday says
I love the “twinning” picture – so sweet! And yes, sometimes you totally just need a fast food burger :D Sounds like you had a great weekend!
kristin | W [H] A T C H says
oh my gosh, the matching outfits are so cute.
Caitlin says
aaaand now I want Burger King!
Marielle says
Getting fast food once in awhile is seriously the best. I love lazy weekends like that, sounds perfect to me! :)
Lauren @ The Bikini Experiment says
Wow you were out late for sure! You go girl. :-)
Ashley @ My Food N Fitness Diaries says
So glad you guys were able to have a low key, fun weekend together. Those are the best sometimes! This past weekend for us was almost a little TOO crazy for my taste. I felt like I needed a weekend from my weekend. ;) But, it was all fun stuff, so no complaints.
This week will be nice because Cody has off on Friday! I’m looking forward to going to a spring training game with him and my parents. Should be fun!
Ashley says
I love visiting your site, and the new layout looks great. There are so many ads though!! If I turn my ad blocker on it blocks 21 ads on your main page. I totally understand the need/desire for ads, but it is slowing your site down so much so I just had to comment.
Jasmine @ A cupcake for my thoughts says
I’m with you on this crappy weather. Although it hasn’t snowed much in England this year, the wind and rain has been horrible lately! I can’t believe how windy it was today and was super thankful that my walk to school is only 10 minutes!! I’m ready for some warm and sunny Spring weather! I finally go on Spring Break on Wednesday and can’t wait to go to America on Friday to visit my dad and little sister :)
Nikki says
I’m with you on 10pm bedtimes, even on Friday nights! Sometimes, it’s good to have a girls night though! I’m so glad y’all finally got to go outside! We are ready for spring!!!
Fiona @ Get Fit Fiona says
It’s never just a quick beer! It sounds like you had a fun Friday night.
Autumn (@Beautifully Gray) says
I am definitely looking forward to the start of a new month! And hopefully warmer weather too.
Julia @ LordStillLovesMe says
I am a theatre geek so it makes me so happy to hear you went to see a play this weekend! They are always a good time, even smaller productions. :) The matching outfits form your boys are to die for.
