I know, I know, you’re probably confused. You’re probably thinking “huh?? summer is just starting”. And, yes you’re right it is. But…how many summers to you have left with all of your kiddos?? The Nester wrote a post about this several years ago. It hit me right in the heart, and it continues to be true as each year passes and the summers become fewer and fewer.
Hey friends! I hope your weekend was great! And I hope that all you mama’s out there had a wonderful Mother’s Day! I had a great day relaxing and enjoying a little quiet time as well as a fun dinner out! I love being a mama to my four! A few weeks ago I shared that I took a couple of days off to spend with my mom. We had such a great visit! And, at her suggestion, we decided to visit the Pioneer Woman Mercantile, in Pawhuska, OK, which is about 45 minutes from where my mom lives. I have been wanting to go since it opened, but wanted to let the hype settle a little – really didn’t want to stand in line. 😉
You know that expression “In like a lion, out like a lamb”? Well, I totally feel like Spring has come in like a lion! I’m hopeful, if we can survive, that it will go out like a lamb, but I’m not too optimistic (about the lamb part – we will survive…ha!). I honestly can’t believe that the month is almost over! We have been busy, busy, busy with all things family. Of course, those are my favorite things to be busy with, but man, I need a nap…or more coffee.
Hey there friends! Last weekend we were able to check another thing off our bucket list! A visit to Magnolia Market at The Silos in Waco! If you’re a Fixer Upper fan then you might be a tad jealous (unless you’ve already been yourself), if you’re not then you might not know what I’m talking about. A few years back we visited their tiny store on Bosque street, and it was sweet and quaint and crowded. This store is about ten times the size, still sweet, and still crowded. Ha!! They have sweet workers everywhere ready to help you with anything you need, including snapping cute pictures for you so you don’t have to struggle with taking a selfie. (the struggle is real for us old people 😉 )
Happy Monday to you friends!! I had thoroughly intended on bringing you an update on some organization I’ve been working, or some more fun Valentine’s day stuff, but, that’s not happening. We have had some busy and exciting times around here lately and as always family takes precedent over work! So, instead, I thought I would fill y’all in on what’s been going on around here!!
