Fun Friday Favorites: Fashion, fun fall foods, and trunk-or-treating

Wow.  I can't believe it is October 31.  Like bats on a crisp Halloween night, time is flying.  (That sounded so poetic, didn't it?)  We've had a fun week of festivities and today, we will continue to party on. I'm so excited to visit the boys' classrooms today and watch the school-wide costume parade, along with ...

When Halloween costumes go bad…there’s good news

Our weekend was full of pre-Halloween celebrations.  Grandma Helen's Fall Party, carving jack-o-lanterns, roasting pumpkin seeds, going to the Schares' Pumpkin Carving Party, touring the Haunted Trail in the darkest of the night (or maybe it was just 7:45 p.m.), and visiting Bloomsbury Farm complete with a bin of corn, pig races, pumpkin launching, haunted ...

Fun Friday Favorites: What I’m reading and cardigans I love

Well, this past week, I've missed you dear readers, but I was so busy traveling to Hawaii that I forgot to post.  Except for NOT.  I realize that I've been absent and I offer my apologies.  I could go into why I haven't been on here, but then I'd be rambling on and on about ...

Fun Friday Favorites: My NEW go-to salad recipe, yummy bars, and of course, some fashion

I'm recovering rather nicely from the crud that hit earlier in the week.  And for those of you wondering...Maxim claims that his ribs are feeling much better, as well.  (For the record, I think we all know that I had a little one who experienced his first day of skipping school.  Don't tell the administration ...

Weekend Recap: Fall fun, football, and Chocolate chip bars. Oh, and Christmas!

Yesterday, three of the four of us were down for the count.  Hubby was home sick, I was home sick, and Maxim...well.  That's a whole other story.  (After finding out Daddy was coming home from work and me admitting that I was sure to be out of commission for the day with the sinus and ...

Fun Friday Favorites: Bacon (yes, please!), fashion, and family moments

This week is a random of favorites.  I can't explain it other than blame it on my love of family, food, and fashion.   1.  Express cardigan - The perfect cozy cardigan I saw this at Express last weekend and fell in love with it.  I'm a sucker for a comfy, cozy cardigan that you can throw on ...

Weekend Recap: Sightseeing at The Dumont Museum and jumping around at Airfx

I'm just coming off of a four day weekend.  It has been so nice.  For the record...a four day weekend never gets old.  The boys' school had Monday and Tuesday off for teachers' inservice meetings.  So, we lived up the fall weather and enjoyed the time off from school. Friday, the boys' school had their annual fundraising ...

Fun Friday: And then October strolled in…

I can't believe that it's October.  Nate's expression in this picture says it all.  "What?!  Where did September go??" I am agreeing with all of those Pinterest quotes about October and fall. Yes, it's time to pull out those scarves, boots, and hats.  Having soup daily is okay because it's COOLER WEATHER.  Wearing sweatshirts while out ...
