Finally Friday!


I confess that I am excited that we have some friends coming over for dinner on Saturday. We are going to swim, drink, eat, and let the babies play. Should be lots of fun.  I am making stuffed shells, an appetizer of some sort, and gotta get a yummy drink. 


I confess that I love summer. Lots of people complain about how hot it is, and last summer I was one of them. This summer, I am excited to wear tank tops…get in the pool…go to the beach. It should be a blast not being pregnant. Right? I know one thing is for sure I won’t be pregnant in summer next time!


I confess that I have something planned for dinner, but the mother’s day coupon I got from Carrabbas is calling my name! We may just be going there for dinner, and putting pork chops on hold.


I confess that I’m not a fan of the Skinny Girl Margarita drink. Wine gives me headaches, I don’t really like beer, but I love cider, margaritas, and mojitos. The other night I sent my hubby to get the skinny girl margarita drink from the local store. Ya’ll it had no taste. I added some peach to it, but still…it was hard to choke down. I don’t know what it is about it, but i wouldn’t call that a margarita. Let me just say that I love Bethenny, but maybe I like my margaritas with calories. 


I confess that I am hungry for a delicious donut. I will be getting one, keep a lookout on instagram to see what my favorite donut is!

The sweetest mornings are spent with these three. The sweetest mornings are spent with these three. I love to do our together learning in the morning—which includes @masterbooks and @gospelproject_ devotion. My youngest even joins in for our morning breakfast devotion, and then reads and plays while we complete social studies and science. What’s your special moment each day?
Today my sweet baby turns 8. He has taught my so m Today my sweet baby turns 8. He has taught my so much about being a mother, and I love watching him grow every year. He’s a sweet kid, who loves to be silly. He likes his alone time to play, but also loves when his brother plays with him. He surprises me daily with all the things he knows, and I’m so blessed we’re going on our third year of learning together. He loves his baby sister something big, and she puts up with his shenanigans. We all love to watch him play and grow in baseball, and watching his skills develop over the years has been fun! Happy birthday sweet Bennett! 🎂

I kept thinking about party favors, and after chatting with some friends about ideas—decided on this! I loved that I wouldn’t be handing out candy or other items that may end up just thrown away. Also, ice cream was always served with cake as a kid so what better way to get your ice cream later 😉
Bless all you kindergarten teachers. Or any of tho Bless all you kindergarten teachers. Or any of those who are telling your students to leave their shoes on and eat a snack (not a meal). Also, any other moms out there that their kid missed their siblings more than you? 🤦🏼‍♀️ oh well, he enjoyed it and his teacher is literally the sweetest thing! How is your first week going? Any case of the kids say the craziest thing? I love the first day of school, and it’s such a special moment to watch and see how each child takes the day and runs with it. 💙

We love making these apple donuts—they are fun for the kids to decorate—add frosting, peanut butter, sprinkles, the list goes on! Kroger now has an amazing new membership that offers FREE next day grocery delivery. They are also giving 2X the fuel points for every dollar spent* on groceries. All of this and much more for $59/Year! We love getting our groceries from Kroger as it saves so much time and money, in more places then just the grocery store.
