To celebrate hump day and to just have a little fun, I’m joining some of my favorite bloggers and doing a little “What’s Up Wednesday?!?” Let’s see, what’s up with me???
What we’re eating this week…
Well…I just made this for our Mexican Monday and it was a total HIT – not to be confused with HIIT. The recipe is gluten-free and meat-free, what? I’ll be posting this Mexican Lasagna on Friday over on my recipes page. (Remember, every Friday I post a new easy dinner recipe for you. All you have to do is click-print-cook!)
What I’m reminiscing about…
We popped in some home videos the other night and I found myself reminiscing about the precious toddler days. I LOVE the ages my kids currently are, but there was just something so sweet about when they were little toddlers and life was focused around snacks and naps.
What I’m loving…
This hat that I purchased in Italy. I LOVE it. I find I wear it weekly, as it is just the perfect finish to a “beachy” outfit or when I’m taking a dip in the pool with my beautiful niece.
What we’ve been up to…
We said good-bye to my sweet sister Haley and her son last week and this week we’re soaking up the last week of summer. And David took the week off, so we’re getting lots of family time in!
What I’m dreading…
Carpool resuming.
What I’m working on…
Wrapping up my Fall OC, submitting a guest post to Organizing Junkie, and meeting with my clients – my clients always brighten my days!
What I’m excited about…
The fall season and having a routine again…I really like routine.
What I’m watching/reading…
We’re doing a Survivor TV marathon with the kids. It’s an old favorite of ours and they love it too! I’m currently reading – Guerrilla Marketing, Parenting from the Inside Out, and A Long Way Home.
What I’m listening to…
Whatever is on the radio or the latest “Focus on the Family” podcast.
What I’m wearing…
This is pretty much my summer staple – J-Crew shorts, a cotton tee, and flip-flops. I discovered these shorts, and four pairs later I’m a believer! They fit so well…love, love, love. My spring/summer capsule wardrobe is working beautifully!
What I’m doing this weekend…
Friday we are planning to go back to one of our favorite beaches for a day trip and on Sunday, Berkley is going to join the worship team at church. It should be a relaxing but intentional weekend. School starts Tuesday so we’ll be getting things organized!
What I’m looking forward to next month…
Resuming my tennis lessons and training for my October 1/2 marathon.
What else is new…
I’ll officially have a high-schooler next week, sigh. I raised my Good Reads reading goal for 2015, up to 40 books (from 30) and I’m on track! Yay! And I dropped my Crock Pot insert on the floor, whoops. So now I’ve got to get a new one before chili season is here.
What’s your favorite back to school tradition…
Snapping a picture of my three kiddos on the front porch as they get ready to head out. Pictures from years past bring back a flood of wonderful and precious memories. Last year’s “silly” picture was awesome!
Linking up today with these lovely ladies…
