Cute Finds

ONE - I need some black jeans that are comfortable and don't have frayed hems so I can wear them dressier places. These are perfect and on my list. 

TWO - so I'm sort of changing how I carry my things around daily and getting rid of my Longchamp that carries my computer and all of the things. It's killing my back and right side of my body. Going to try a backpack for work stuff, eliminate carrying neosporin and a bunch of other crap I don't need (going to leave in my car instead) and will carry a smaller crossbody. I'm hoping this helps my back. Anyway, I ordered this bag and this wallet. Stay tuned for a report in on this. 

THREE - love this bathing suit. I'm sure I wouldn't look nearly as cute as she does in it. 



FOUR - love these wrap sandals and hoping I can get away with them for work this Summer. This is such a nice brand of shoes. Amazing quality. 


FIVE - I'm seeing this tee with jeans or dress pants and I love the idea of it. Super cute with tennis shoes or dressed up!


Happy almost weekend!

Peloton Journey Over

Well...it was a long 6.5 years of doing some sort of exercise on the Peloton app every week. Until a few weeks ago when I was injured (my back!) and was told basically to not move so I missed that week. Such a bummer. I remembered about 5am that Monday morning so 5 hours too late! 330+ weeks of movement!

Anyway, I'll have to get over it but it was a great streak while it lasted. I have almost had the bike and app since Grady was born. I used to ride the bike often but then had a toe issue and it killed my toe to ride. Then I started doing a lot of the strength classes and walks/runs. I've loved it all. 

I still will use the Peloton app because I love Alex, Callie, Alli, Kristen and some other instructors. I've also enjoyed just doing my own thing and using my watch to track progress and listening to whatever music I feel up to at the moment. 

Here's to many years of Peloton! 

Weekend Round Up

Last Thursday night I took Molly Anne to the prom fashion show at the local high school. It was super cute and she won a raffle prize so she was stoked!

Saturday morning warm ups. They announced they were going to work out before their basketball game. 

Ms. Julie came to watch both of their games which was so nice!


Saturday night we went to The Jimmy for an app (the Jimmy chopped salad and bread) and drink before meeting some friends at their club. It was a good time. They have a great vibe at their club and we loved it. 


Birthday party for one of Molly Anne's friends on Sunday at Urban Air! 




Then we had a little birthday celebration for Kevin! His big birthday is today! 

It was 82 and sunny so lots of kids playing outside at our house! 


A Greek yogurt dip I made for the Super Bowl. It wa good but you could tell it was healthy if that makes sense haha!


Reese's cookies. Picked up a variety from Sips and Dips, so good!


Glad the eagles beat the chiefs. It's fun for someone else to win every once in awhile! 

Chat soon! We have a birthday to celebrate over here!

Cute Finds

ONE - I saw this sweater in store and it's beautiful!

TWO - a simple dress that you could wear for so many occasions. 

THREE - love the color of this sweater with the gold buttons. So cute with the ecru jeans. 


FOUR - these candles smell so good and would be so pretty in any room. I'm partial to the volcano smell but these are fresh!


FIVE  - a bathing suit that doesn't look like all of my other suits!


SIX - off white jeans that aren't cut offs so can be dressed up. I would get petite so they're not too long. I'm 5'7" 

SEVEN - something else I saw in store - these adorable candles!

Bored

While we were driving last week, Grady asked me what I do when I'm bored. I said, "I'm literally never bored." And when I said that I kind of couldn't believe it but I'm truly not ever bored. 

There is plenty I could be doing. I could be exercising. I could be selling the kid's old clothes. I could be volunteering. I could be asking a friend to go to lunch. I could be watching something on tv. I could be playing with Mills. I could be playing with Grady. Molly Anne and I could do our nails or chit chat. I wouldn't be reading since I barely know how to read hahaha. I could be working. I could be planning a trip. Helping a neighbor. I could study for a license I'm interested in. I could go back to school to get my MBA which I doubt I'd do at this point. I could be doing lots of things!! 

Boredom is not really in my vocab. Do all of the things! Why not?!

Planes and Helicopters

Did I tell you guys about when I went to Utah in October on our company plane? We were landing at several different airports and seeing buildings we had under construction along the way. At our last one, we almost landed then went right back up. It was daylight out. But our pilots said there was a plane on the runway AND there were helicopters everywhere. They said it was best described as "chaos." 

Small airports like where we were don't have air traffic control towers. And it was a popular touristy place hence the helicopters. They were able to physically see them all and they had them located on their computers. I trust these pilots completely and would fly with them any day of the week. 

It makes me think about those people from last week's crash at Reagan airport. I just cannot believe that happened and I'm so sorry for them and all of their families. I hope the passengers and pilots on both aircraft didn't suffer at all. 

Ugh! I know a car crash is still more likely but it is something about having more control over that situation. Still, crazy people all over the place. I do not want to fly on the same plane with Kevin unless all four of us are together. We have discussed this but I'll be discussing it with him more!

Be safe all! 

Dance, Ice Hockey and Greenway

On Saturday night these two chickadees got to get ready together for their sweetheart dance at school! We had so much fun doing hair and makeup. We missed Maggie as she was at a cheer competition. 

Heart!

There they are

Dinner at our club then the dance per tradition for 4 or 5 years?! 






Grady and I went to a Charlotte Checkers Ice Hockey game. It was awesome. A first for both of us but we will be back. Grady loved it!


On Sunday the four of us went for almost 4 miles on the greenway. Kevin and I walked and we took the kid's bikes. It was fun and something different. I don't think I've ever been on the greenway here but I'm glad I did. 


We had smoothies at Green Brothers for lunch afterwards! 


He had a rough Sunday morning but is doing ok. I think it's medicine related so I'm stopping one of those. I'm his assistant doctor now haha. 


Going to be a busy week around here. Chat soon friends!
