Just found some good ole trusty pieces this week. The jeans are in my cart. I may get petite though so they're not too long. Everything in this post is good. Eeeeks!!
ONE - knit jeans?! What!
TWO - not many size available but love this top with white denim bottoms. $53
THREE - I'd love to get this skirt and think I can dress it up enough for work!
FOUR - unfort this top is final sale but i love the shell detail
FIVE - my fav work pants but this mushroom color is cool
1. I took Grady to a lacrosse clinic last night through CLA here in Charlotte so he could try it out. He LOVED it. I played lacrosse so it makes me so happy he likes it. Molly Anne does too. She said she wants to play again soon.
2. I had several ask about my Mom and I really haven't talked about that on here. She has never really had a healthy life due to major back/neck issues but she has dementia. She's only 74. It's terrible. Dementia is terrible. If you ever want to chat, please email me anniesadventures16@gmail.com. Not many of my friends have parents going through it since my mom is so young but I'd love to help anyone that may be in the same situation.
3. Molly Anne has reentered our family as of last Friday after being at camp for 4 weeks. She has wanted all of the things that she learned from all of her new friends. None of that is occurring but a girl can dream and add to her amazon wish list! More slime, leave in conditioner that she thinks is necessary, a husband pillow and so much more.
4. Summer is SO hard for working parents. I gotta say, I feel pulled in a thousand directions and that's coming from someone who has a flexible work situation. I've had a ton of public meetings at nights and that has been part of the problem but next summer, they can do their big away camps and then I'll have a college girl help. No different camps in Charlotte every week anymore. Plus, Molly Anne is growing out of that stuff. I love Summer.......sort of.....not wishing it away but whewwww!!!
5. I feel like I'm wearing the same three dresses to work these days. The workplace in general has gotten more casual but I'm a big believer that you work how you feel! Anyway, I need to figure out some new work clothes to refresh my life! Add it to my list to do. ;)
Chat soon friends.
There is this one that lost a big ole tooth on Sunday...finally, because it got knocked at camp on one of his last days (end of June) and has been hanging on since. He was soooo excited but then a bit nervous for the tooth fairy! He hadn't lost a tooth since last August and Molly Anne hasn't lost one since then either.
And then there is this freckled little girlie! Still proudly wearing that yellow band she got for Seaman Survival. An intense swim situation at camp....below are the guidelines to get it. The 30 min face down float does it for me...they breathe to the side but still!
We picked up Molly Anne from camp on Friday and we are sooo happy to have her back! She had the best time and wants to go back next year. So does Grady for four weeks! Wild! I'm so happy for them that they get these experiences.
The older she gets the more I want her to be surrounded by these good girls, zero screens and amazing experiences. It is so, so good and such a special place! She ran up to our car and went to Grady's door first. They really missed each other!
Grady and I did a bunch of kayaking this weekend. I also did a lot of laundry! ;) Then we toted everything back to Charlotte! Happy Monday!
I'm already tired of hearing about the Nordstrom sale and it hasn't started for me! But I prob will look around once I can shop!
ONE - I went to Sephora and Kendra Scott this week to grab Molly Anne a couple extra birthday gifts before we get her back on Friday. This set smells sooooo good I may have to borrow it from her! Great $35 gift too.
TWO - an adorable cardigan to throw on after the beach.
THREE - they made this bracelet at the color bar and she's going to love it.
FOUR - will be glad I got this softttt sweatshirt in the cooler months!
FIVE - and a dress on sale that's a pretty color!
We took my Mom to the beach one day! She was too hot because there was zero breeze on that day. You can see my shibumi was worthless! But she used to LOVE the beach so I wanted to get her out there.
A beach sandwich just hits differently!
Dad grabbed grouper and shrimp from Doug's for dinner. Just so, so good. Our grill wouldn't start so I just used the Doug's seasoning and baked it for about 20 minutes on 350.
Grady was a happy boy having his poppa all to himself! Molly Anne is still at camp...!
A little Nannie love! Take it when we can get it!
We got a couple crabs from off our dock!
He was obsessed with checking for them!
It was a tough visit with my Mom but still always a good one. Her caretaker came down with she and my Dad which was helpful. Just different in concept. Day by day my friends. Not easy. Chat soon.
We are in the midst of needing to buy a few new TVs so we scooted over to Sam's last night to look around. I never go to Sam's. Kevin LOVES going there so he always does that for us. He likes when I go every now and then so I can see things they have that I can ask him to grab. Funny right?! Here are a few finds!
Always and forever a fav. I eat too much popcorn.
