Today, we went to a kids market day where my kids loaded up on allllll kinds of freebies + supported a sweet friend’s little booth. Then, we ate boudin for lunch. Turned on college football this afternoon. Then had homemade pizza for dinner and pumpkin bread for dessert.
READING: I recently finished reading “The Green Ember” to my kids. My son had already read the entire series, but I read it out loud to him and my daughter. And we all REALLY loved it. On to the next in the series!
WATCHING: My husband and I are working through the seasons of “Would I Lie To You?” Lots of laughs. We’re actually going backwards-ish as we bounced around at first and think the later seasons are better than the first.
WEARING: These bright yellow Adidas are my current favorite pair of shoes!
ENJOYING: Fall things. The weather is still hanging around 90 degrees here. But we’re enjoying Fall flavors and making the house feel a little cozier. I’m hoping to make a mini Fall bucket list for us real soon!
LEGO-ING: This set is up next on my build list. And I got this vase to put it in!
EATING: Shrimp and sausage jambalaya. A few months ago, I wanted to make a jambalaya. So I found a couple of recipes with what I liked in them and meshed them together. And loved the outcome! And right now, I could eat it every week. Leftovers are even better!
DRINKING: Nettle infusions. FULL of vitamins and minerals (more on that here, if you’re interested). And my kids like them! So, I try to make one or two batches a week, so we can share.
Cozy reading is the best!
💛💛💛
We often play games with the kids before bedtime. Sometimes, we all play together. Sometimes, we split up. The last couple of times me and B have played something, he chose Kluster. Fun!
Had a little paper airplane competition at our co-op today.
Spent a couple of days in Broken Bow, OK last week for my sister’s bachelorette party. I somehow ended up documenting a lot of my (NA) drinks. So, here’s my trip to Broken Bow via beverages. 🥤💦☕️
(Guess I could’ve also titled this, “Drinks With Trees In The Background.” ☺️)
A real pretty evening @ home.
Just went to see Downton Abbey: The Grand Finale, and I’m pretty sure me and my sis-in-law were the two youngest attendees by a fairly large margin.
Haven’t posted any thrift finds in a while (and there’s been a lot!). So, here’s a collection of things I got while visiting my family in Bossier City recently.
Bag of vintage scarves for $1.50. All but 1 are silk. Set of 2 Homer Laughlin magnolia platters for $2.50. A framed cross stitch for $1.
My girl helping whisk us up some pumpkin milk.
I’ve mentioned it before, but I will again. I enjoy curating products within a theme. I’ve created several Fall inspo boards on Amazon, but have had the most fun making some that include whimsical and colorful home and decor finds from Amazon, Target, and now Walmart (below).
I think it’s moody and deep, but in a happy and bright way!
