Hello Monday and Happy Halloween! (October 31, 2022)

 

Hi Friends and Happy Monday!  Sarah and I are so glad you stopped by!  If you blogged today, grab our graphic above and link back up with us below!

 

Here is what our little weekend looked like

 

 

Friday Night

 

 

I hosted our Blackout Committee for our 2022 wrap up meeting- we are waiting on the final numbers but it looks like it will be a record year!  So great to see all of the efforts paying off for pediatric cancer awareness and funding!

 

Rob had a gig and the girls just hung together which warms my heart!

 

 

Saturday

 

I was up early and skipped our date walk because we would be getting our steps and workout in by starting the Christmas decorating.  I took Diana for our Starbucks date and dropped her off at dance and rehearsals 

 

 

and then...we got decorating!

 

 

I then went to the studio to get some volunteer hours in and do a couple of videos for our documentary.  Then it was time to participate in the hair and makeup tutorials.

 

We rushed home, got changed and freshened up and I whipped up a charcuterie board to bring to Tom and Laurel's.

 

They invited us over for dinner and planning for a very special 50th birthday trip....details coming soon!  It was a great night!

 

 

Sunday

 

We were up early to enjoy our coffee and maybe a little bit of Hallmark then we were off to mass...we had missed a few weeks and really missed being there.  

 

Then it was home to do more decorating, bring the girls to rehearsals and then back home to do some cooking for the week.  I am definitely getting my energy back as I was able to whip up four meals! 

 

 

Still need to decorate this bad boy but it is up!

Someone wasn't happy that we were busy decorating around him and not playing with him so he decided to take matters into his own paws and tore into one of my Christmas pillows...I was not happy and he was looking very guilty- ha!

Kate sent me a glimpse from rehearsal :)

Last night, it was early to bed to get ready for our week!  Happy Halloween!  Can't wait to see all of the costumes :)

Friday Favorites (October 28, 2022)

 

Hi Friends and Happy Fri Yay!

Linking up HERE and sharing some faves from our week!

Remi!

 

We put Remi in "daycare" for the first time over the wedding weekend...I was so nervous but he did very well and even socialized with other dogs.  He really never gets the chance to...anyway...I missed him so much BUT would highly recommend The Barking Dog in Derry NH if you are local.  They took such great care of him and provided us updates and photos every day over text.

Though he "had fun" I can tell from the pictures that he is SO nervous but anyway...he is home...and now I KNOW he is relaxed and happy :)

 

 

 

 

 

MEMEs

 

 

A Win

I call this one a win because she needed to take a picture of the breakfast I made her :)

 

NEW Swig Cup!

Like I didn't have enough already right?  Anyway.....THIS ONE is my fave yet...so festive AND so stylish

Nail Color

My new fave...wore it for the wedding and loving it with my fall outfits- El Mat-adoring you from OPI

 

Dinner with the Fab Four

Getting dressed up and heading to my fave restaurant with my fave ladies is always a good idea- if you are local, check out Surf in Nashua!

Then and Now

 

 

Nuff Said

Follow The Joy

 

 

Halloween Wine Club

My Wine Club met last night and it was Lea's turn to host and given that she is the "Queen of Halloween" she made us come as a scary version of ourselves- it was so fun and she of course had all of her elegant Halloween decorations in full effect..this month we changed up the format and each brought our fave wine (we did this as teams of two) and a favorite appetizer...Beth Ann and I brought a bottle of Ink Blot Cab Franc and I made a warm spinach dip ....we had a great night of sharing our fave wines, catching up and many laughs of course!

 

 

 

 

That's a wrap!  I would wish you a Happy Halloween Weekend but truth be told I am already in Christmas mode this year and we are starting our decorating tomorrow- I am GIDDY- have a great one and thanks for stopping by!
