1. To update family on the happenings of our boys.
2. To print out and keep as a memory book of our family memories.
That said, I thought I'd start a recap of my favorite things from each week and call it Friday Favorites!
Let me honest and say that my days are not all filled with picture moments and memories I want to cherish forever. I have my piles of laundry, sibling rivalry (plus some), my to-do list a mile long, just like everyone else. I thought this would be a good way to head into the weekend focusing on the positives!
So, here goes--- My First Friday Favorites:
1. I found a new place to work out and can bring my youngest with me (w/o childcare)! WOOOHOOO! (Doing this with a few mom's from school. It's been fun to make new friends!)
2. I had a great day reconnecting with old friends at a "New Home Brunch" yesterday.
3. A favorite funny moment this week: While studying for Bible Blast with big brother, I asked, "What is the white stuff that fell from heaven to feed the Israelites?" His answer... "Mayonnaise!" (should have been manna!)
Action shot from his last intro Tae Kwon Do class
4. I started chemistry tutoring again this week. I love working with kids and using my brain in ways it hasn't been used in quite some time!
5. My hubby isn't scheduled travel at all this month (yet) and gets to take a free day off of work before the end of October!
6. The signs of fall, despite the heat! We added this to our house this week... Ours is the "thankful" one.
The other was a house warming gift for the above mentioned New Home Brunch!
(Ours is now empty and will remain that way, unless I can think of an easy and healthy treat that will stay without being refrigerated. What's the point of working out if I eat bags of candy corn all week?)
7. This little guy loves his new Yoda Costume. He's worn it around the house daily since buying it. The other morning, I warned him not to poop while wearing it. His response? "Yoda doesn't poop, mommy!"
8. Had $5 free to spend at Ace. Bought the boys their own pack of silly bands. Now, they don't have to fight over the 8 we used to have. Can you feel the love?
9. Found 2 new favorite websites:
http://blog.fossil.com/ This is a fun one, with clothing, diy projects, inspirations, etc! I love Fossil
stuff!
http://cleanmama.blogspot.com/ This one has a lot of organizational and cleaning tips. I am looking
forward to searching around her blog and steal some ideas! My house could use a good deep
cleaning. I saw a series on deep cleaning, step by step!
10. Looking forward to some family photos this weekend and inspired by this Halloween display from Pottery Barn Kids
This is next week's project!
Happy Weekend!
