Things Making Me Smile This Week {9/23}

By 46 Comments

I’m really enjoying these posts lately. Not only are they fun a little change up, but they also let me reflect back on the things from the week that were positive, fun, hilarious, and/or happy. So here’s what we’ve got this week…

I finally found my festive fall frames!! For some reason, I stored them in a totally separate closet from the rest of our fall stuff. What was I thinking?!?

To see how I made that frame, for wicked cheap, check out this post.

SOYJOY came out with two new flavors recently: Cranberry and Dark Chocolate Cherry.

How awesome is that, right? They are both so, so good.

I’ve got to include these again because, well, they make me smile anytime I eat one.

Of course, we’ve got to include this week’s Pinterest finds…

And last but not least…the siding on our house is DONE! Open-mouthed smile

Here’s some before and afters:

We’ve still got a few little detail things to finish up, and we’ll still need a new back deck, but we’re definitely lookin’ better than we were and I am so, so happy it’s finished.

Alright…time to get back to this stinkin’ Jets game. I hate when they go into overtime – I get so nervous!

  16. Your love of all things pumpkin made me want to share a recipe with you. Since I just posted about it, it's also a shameless (ok, I'm slightly ashamed) plug: Pumpkin and Refried Bean Burritos! And "two trips" really is for the weak. The majority of my strength training comes from hauling groceries. Get at it! http://foodofmyaffection.com/2012/09/23/can-do/

  23. Haha oh the chocolate ecard, how I can relate. Lately I've been pretty good at keeping my chocolate stash well stocked, but I remember going to town on those Baker's semi-sweet chocolate squares countless times in the past. Your new siding looks great!

  29. Hey Courtney! Thought I'd share this recipe with you - my mom has made it a few times before so I took a go at it this weekend and it is to die for! http://healthnutclaire.blogspot.com/2012/09/crack-cake.html

  31. Hahaha... could not stop laughing at the shopping bags. I so do that! Why, it's like it would kill me to make two trips to get the groceries in. Every time though, I practically cut off the circulation in my fingers to get everything in the house at once, phew! Totally cuteness and LOL at the cat and the Nutella, ha! Loved that.

  34. I LOVE the harvest/family/blessing picture! I was wondering where I can get one to hang in my house. Do you know? Thanks!

  35. Good morning. Are the frames you used for your Fall pictures square? I do counted cross stitch and I used to be able to find square frames all over the place and I'm having a really hard finding any square frames now. I looked into having some made but they would cost too much considering it didn't cost me very much to make the actual picture. I usually don't go to Michael's but thought I might if they had square frames that weren't too expensive. Thanks and have a great day. Sue

  38. Were you pleased with the company who did you siding? If so, would you mind sharing their name. We need new siding and we live in East Greenbush.

  • Man, time flies! 10 years ago today, we said “I do” and partied our faces off all night long. A whole lot has changed over the past decade, but one thing remains the same...you are still one lucky man @jhoran1314 😜 . Thank you for always putting up with my crap, for being an amazing dad to our boys, and helping me be the best version of me. These past 10 years have been awesome, and fun, and hard, and so rewarding...but we’re just getting started. 😉 Love you more than you’ll ever know 😘 . #10thweddinganniversary #anniversary #highschoolsweethearts #weddinganniversary #bestisyettocome
  • Merry Christmas from The Horan Fam! 🎄🎅🏻😍✨
  • In an effort to help teach the boys that Christmas is about so much more than just what’s under the tree, we set out this morning to spread some kindness and holiday cheer 🎅🏻💕 . We made stops at both Brinley’s Bags and @rmhc_albany, met some wonderful and caring people, and donated some items from each of their wish lists. . While I’d love to say the boys really got it, they were still fairly impartial to the whole thing. But I can absolutely say that I think we’ve found a new Christmas Eve tradition, and I can only hope that, with time, they’ll be as excited about it as I am 🤗 #MOK19 #spreadcheer #spreadkindness #christmaseve #brinleysbags #rmhc #seasonofgiving

  • Jay and I had been planning a secret overnight trip to @greatwolflodge for the boys for about a month and a half, and seeing their reaction to the surprise made the wait totally worth it😲(you can see that in my IG stories today!). They swam until their fingers and toes were raisins, played a gazillion games, stayed up way past their bedtimes, and ate like kings.🤗 Aaaaand, now I’m ready to be back home, in my own bed 😴 #greatwolflodge #surprise #familyfun
