Happy Friday, friends! Another whirlwind of a week over here!  I keep trying to get things to slow down, but so far I haven't had much luck ;)

First up on my list of favorites is XC season...

Pumpkin Bars

I made these pumpkin bars last weekend and they have been a HUGE hit with my family.  The flavors were super similar to my mini pumpkin cream pies with WAY less effort.  They were really quick to put together and they're suuuuuuper delish!

Halloween-spiration

    HAPPY Wednesday!  Today I thought I'd share some fun and festive ideas that I've blogged over the years in case you want to get your thinking caps on and mark your calendars with some a special dinner or craft idea this month.

You can check out our pre-trick-or-treating dinner from a few years ago  HERE...

ThursDAY in the Life

Last Thursday I snapped pics of our day since it was kind of a "nothing" day - with minimal activities, extras, etc. 

Homecoming is coming up next week and the middle school cheer girls have a few early-morning practices with varsity to get ready for the pep rally which means G was out the door by about 5:45 to make it to school at 6:00.  GOD BLESS DAVE who took her ;) 

Amazon Lately

One of my friends at school was talking about this book and so I ordered a copy for Luke.  I'll keep you posted but it seems great and has incredible reviews.

Happy Friday, friends! I had a teacher work day on Monday and this week has FLOWN by!  First up on my list of FAVORITES is this pic of Mason I found on my phone...

Zucchini Muffins

It's still a bit too hot for allllll the Fall baking BUT I did bake up some zucchini muffins over the weekend and they were too good not to share ;) 

WIWW

It's no secret that I have a "type" when it comes to my clothing choices.  I love a flowy maxi/midi dress with unique details that I can wear in all seasons.  Alone in the summer, with a jacket/cardi over it in the Fall/Winter and with flats, sneakers or sandals.  I don't mind paying for something that I know I'll wear it year after year and get a ton of wear our of it throughout the year.  I'm not sharing a bunch of pics of myself today since a lot of the things I wear are years old, so instead I'm doing a little roundup of items that I am currently wearing and some that I'm loving.

Before I get started please enjoy this text exchange from the summer when Luke and I went to host Bingo at a local assisted living residence...

... so if you're down for having a lovely elderly woman appreciate your mumu than THIS is the post for you ;) hahaha

Happy October 1st!

HAPPY October 1st, friends!  In honor of this festive date I thought I'd share a fun little snacky lunch I put together this weekend using this set of BOO plates/platters.

Dancing Queen ;)

Well - it happened, y'all.  Griffin Joy got to go to her very first middle school dance as an actual middle schooler ;) Since before this girl could walk she's been with me as I've gotten things set up, danced with her brothers in the empty gym as the DJ does sound tests and has been the first one in the photo booth when the vendor wants to make sure everything is working - so this was kind of a monumental event ;)

Happy Friday, friends! Well - it's 12:45 a.m. and I'm just sitting down to write this post if that tells you anything about how my week has been ;) It was our MS spirit week which means dress days, daily House games and a big party to end the week.  I AM WIPED!

But... look how cute my two middle schoolers looked on HoliDAZE...

Costco Faves PART FIVE

I haven't shared Costco Faves since May and I figured it was about time to update y'all with some additional favorite finds.  

First up - this spinach ravioli!  I honestly think it could be the best ravioli I've ever had.  hahaha. I made a homemade alfredo sauce and had it with them and they were HEAVENLY!
