ONE - these earrings caught my eye in a big way. Gorgeous and not outrageously expensive!
TWO - never enough Jellycat in our little 11 year old world!
THREE - these are ornaments!!! So fun for a girlfriend treat!
FOUR - love this color dress
FIVE - super fun skirt for holidays
A little taste of fall and one of holiday cheer!
Skiff always has his bone hanging out of his mouth like this. It reminds me of a "smoke bar" which is what Grady called a cigarette we saw someone smoking in public recently! He didn't know what it was called - why would he?!
Molly Anne threw these in the Costco cart because duh! So good.
My friend Brittany pranked us with this pumpkin blowup on our front porch! She knows I don't like those in the front of the house ha! The other one is from a Halloween party we went to a few years ago. So funny!
Good thing he's cute!
Fall porch. Kept it simple! Heather Opal makes the door hangers! Now to go trim my topiaries!
We had a big baseball weekend! Friday night practice. And got in bed early because we had a huge day Saturday!
Early baseball game, went home for 20 minutes, went back for another practice, stayed for a birthday party. Came home and went to a neighborhood party. Then came home and went to a friends amazing Halloween party with adults only! Whew!
How amazing is Lisa's charcuterie board?!
It was a white lie party so you had to come in a tshirt with a lie on it. Mine said I had a tattoo with Kevin's name on it. We also had a pumpkin carving contest. She goes above and beyond hosting!
And she sent us home with the cutest party favor!
Sunday Grady's team won the tournament again! They're 8-0. We will see if their streak continues next weekend!
We wrapped our weekend by going to Kura which is a sushi place that serves it all on a conveyor belt and you pick up what you want. Not the best sushi but a fun experience!
These caught my eye this week, especially the last one - may have to order that!
ONE - cowboy boot slippers!
TWO - super cute sweater
THREE - could wear this with leggings or jeans. 30% off
FOUR - $98 purse but looks much fancier. The other side is plain with no fringe.
FIVE - may have to order this. I love everything about it!
Here's to not making dinner complicated.
Baked potato,
Steamed broccoli
Caesar salad kit in a bag
One package of crescent rolls - join two triangles together then cut in a square.
4 hot dogs cut in half - get the thicker dogs not the thin and long ones
Put the crescent roll square on the round dog and set it on a tray on the flat cut side.
Use a knife to make a hole for the eyes!
Bake 375 for 5 minutes!
Putting two of these in Grady's lunchbox!
We cruised down to Ocean Isle on Saturday night after Molly Anne's field hockey tournament and a baseball game to Grady. It was sorta crazy getting to her tourney with one car and a dog but we made it happen. Oh and on Friday night we ended up with neighborhood friends on the porch.
And look who we found! Poppa! He had been in Pawleys building a boat at the Wooden Boat Show with my brother. We captured him on his way back Maryland and had him stay and hang at the Oysterfest with us!
We all have headed back home today. We always want to stay at the beach longer!
Grouper bites and gin and tonics before we had shrimp creole for dinner! Yum!
Random finds this week!
ONE - these jeans
TWO - still want some new kicks that don't seem too much like soccer shoes
THREE - I wear this in the summer and also in the winter with a long cardigan. Instantly feel put together!
FOUR - love the beading on this candle - pick this up for a hostess gift!
FIVE - ha and this beaded purse too!
Grady got Phase I braces last Thursday! So far, he has made out reasonably well. He can't tell the difference between sore and pain but we are working through it. I think they ache ya know. Mostly he has only had Motrin once a day and just days 2, 3 and 4.
He will have these for 12-15 months then have a couple year break then get Phase II.
He's been going to the orthodontist since he turned 7 and they've been working on his mouth since then about every 6 months. He's had four teeth pulled to prep for braces.
Here we go!
Before
After... he was not thrilled!
Here's my lunch one day last week that I packed and took to work! Thank you Costco! I was going to be lazy and get something out but I'm always glad I pack!
Cottage cheese with everything seasoning
Kimchi - see below
Quinoa salad - see below
We really didn't do much this weekend because the rain canceled most of the baseball. He missed three games and a practice.
Friday night Grady and I went to Brittany's home in the hood to hang out.
Molly Anne got a late birthday gift from her Aunt and Uncle and she was sooooo excited about her new FP Movement sweatshirt! Her birthday being over a holiday and when she's at camp is hard for people to remember! I'd say this was a pretty awesome surprise!
Skiff learned about pumpkins!
A good boy
Because of the canceled games, Molly Anne and I headed to the mall on Saturday. She loved it. We could have stayed longer but had to get back to take Grady to a birthday party.
We take pictures of things she likes and I add them to an album called "MA Would Like!"
Saturday night we hung at Hilary's to watch the UGA and Alabama football game. We all made appetizers and it was fun!
We didn't do much on Sunday. Watched church and laid low. It was much needed. One more week of field hockey season. Lots of that and baseball this week! These are the days!
