Can I just say, that after three weeks of working M-F how much I appreciate this Friday + Monday OFF!? That's pathetic! I know. I've definitely got my head in the clouds this Friday morning☺️
I'm probably most excited about actually getting to take Cam to school this morning & pick him up this afternoon! And have a long day with Conley. We have so much to do! Let the errands begin!
Happiness sprinkled throughout this last week:
one. supper club
Cade cooked "his legendary breakfast" or so he claims (okay, he is a great breakfast chef, the best) for our sweet neighbor friends & it was a great evening of laughter & kid messes, & gravy. Lot's of gravy. Don't tell him I like it.
two. sister sister
Bebe & Joe Daddy came to take the boys shopping for a few school things this past weekend, & while a lot of that free time was spent doing a much needed house cleaning, my sister & I took a break + snuck away for a few short hours to do a little window shopping (something i m p o s s i b l e with a bunch of boys!). Didn't buy a thing but a refreshing cup of coffee & sunflowers at Trader Joes, but oh the things I had all the heart eyes for. Such a fun day, & it ended up being about 90 degrees, but that morning totally felt like fall! Next time we go shopping, it will be my turn to buy school/winter/church clothes + a side of holiday pj's for our little stinkers!
How can straight leg pants be so hard to find for a 5 year old boy??
Pottery Barn finds that I'll never be able to afford:
THIS DESK & chair. NEED.

That galvanized pumpkin at the bottom has given me all the inspiration for my mantle. I'm keeping my eyes peeled for a sale or a cheaper version... if you find one I'm all ears!
I need this pendant in my entry. Isn't she pretty?
All the cute Halloween stuff! 😍

And a few favorites from Altered State.
This dress just screamed fall pictures to me...
three. new work bag to the rescue!
I've been eyeing it for probably half a year thanks to @thesisterstudioig.
I will affirm. It is as dreamy as she claims it is.
four. favorite people in the world
My preschool staff at my old school (old as of spring). I love & miss them so.
Talk about the most precious snail mail to receive a card from them delivered to my new school this week. It will stay in my bag to pull out when I need it! Love, love.
five. long weekend, here we come!
SO to do, but at the top of my list, a few simple things:
---
1. Actually read the entire Fall Magnolia magazine. I tend to get to look at one picture & end up storing it away for a time when things slow down & "I can." Yeah, right!
2. A little shopping + haircuts for the boys!
We've got birthday presents to buy & my shaggy brothers need a good snip!
3. PSL! I just got an email they are b-aaaaack.
4. Stay up late & binge watch Very Cavallari. I shouldn't, but I can't stop. Thanks, Bebe! I'm an old Laguna beach junkie from "way back in 2002" & I think my main obsession with this show is Nashville. I love that city. I want to go this fall so bad!
5. I'll probably spend the rest of my free time when the boys are asleep printing + laminating new therapy materials +listening to Laura Mize podcasts.
I am in pediatric SLP m-o-d-e.
A little update To save my sanity, but preserve this sweet space, I'm going to shoot for two (vs. three) posts a week. The usual Friday favorites & then a side of something else during the week that I have on my heart. Something I feel that is less diary like & more worth sharing.
I have a post I've been writing about my "journey" for lack of better words, to becoming a morning person.
Should be fun!
And way more importantly (than morning people), Cam is hard at work sneaking my phone away making more videos. Caught him red handed.
Stay tuned.😜
Happy long weekending, sweet friends!
Where so I start? YES I can so relate to the only being back at work a few weeks and needing the time off - I think it is because we still remember what it is like to feel rested and have time to do stuff. AND when you are off your life becomes wider - with more interests, better cooking /cleaning / more social time that you get used to that and pine for it! I might be wrong but that's just my take on it! The desk you spotted at PB is gorgeous - I'd love a nice desk too, but I just donated my second hand one to Caspar and now don't have one. And can't afford a new one! But it is nice to get the odds and ends things for Fall to jazz up the house isn't it? I am going on a hunt again today... LOVE your bag - really gorgeous! Have a great Labor Day weekend! Joanne x
That's a great way to put it Joanne! Thank you! Happy Labor Day<3
