Hello Monday (November 18, 2024)

 

Hi Friends and Happy Monday!  I am here with Sarah and we are sharing about our weekends.  Hope you will join us!  I have to preface my post by saying I was AWFUL at taking pics this weekend...yikes...I promise to do better ;)

 

Friday 

 

First things first, Revitalize!  I was so excited to see that they debuted the Wicked teas and shakes and most were designed by Diana!

 

 After a busy morning of mass and work, I scooted out for a date lunch with my hubby- he had a gift card to Copper Door and we really enjoyed :)

My friends were sending  me pics of our real estate mailing- this one was my fave yet.  Our team picture and contact info is on the front and Thanksgiving cooking tips are on the back- my boss is genius!

 

One last FNL of the season- Quarter Finals and the Jags came up short but it was an exciting game.  We didn't have cheerleaders but the girls all came to enjoy the game with friends and boyfriends...I was with my posse...Lea, Kat, Stephanos, Rob and Pidge

 

 

 Saturday

 

We went out for a date walk because WE ARE BACK...ha!  Life has been so crazy but we really need to start squeezing these back in even if it means getting out there at 6:30!

 

 

 and this is where I really started slacking on the photo front.  I brought Diana to work then headed up to Manchester and Bedford.

I ran to Hobby Lobby to find wreaths for our windows for the holidays.  This is the first year we are experimenting with this.  I also snagged some tulle to  make some bows for the wreaths.  Now we just have to get some spotlights and hopefully we can make it all look festive...check back after Thanksgiving Weekend.

 

After that, I drove over to Trader Joe's and Whole Foods since I was in the area.  I got some different favorite treats to put a basket together for My Favorite Things Party.  We are doing one gift each this year and my gift will be Trader Joes Faves.

 

At Whole Foods, I grabbed some food to make for dinner and some ingredients for Thanksgiving.

 

After unloading all of the groceries at home, I actually whipped up two of our Thanksgiving sides and got them into the freezer.  This makes me feel less stressed leading up to the holiday.

 

Then Diana and I headed up to the high school to attend the Fall Show- Much Ado About Nothing...we enjoyed cheering on her fellow theater classmates and enjoyed the show too!

 

 

Diana and Ryan- fellow thespians since daycare :)

 

 

 That night, Diana headed out with Tommy's family to celebrate his birthday.  Eva had a friend over and I made dinner for all of us.

After dinner, the girls played and Rob and I watched some One Tree Hill maybe with a little dessert treat from TJ's- have you tried the mini peppermint ice cream cones?  They will definitely put you in the spirit!

 We crashed early!

Sunday

We were up bright and early for an 8 am hockey game!

 

 

Diana worked and I helped Revitalize with a little social media marketing...

 Then there was softball, cooking, grocery shopping, organizing and a little decorating upstairs only...it's the only thing us girls got Robby B to agree to ;)

I then finished my first book of the month "Nantucket Summer House" by Pamela Kelley and loved it!  She never lets me down.  This was book #9 in the Beach Plum Cove Series.  I flew through it and wanted more.

 

 

 Last night, we wrapped our weekend by going to mass as a family.  What were you all up to?

Lastly, I want to mention that Thursday is Monthly Musings with Patty and me.  We are talking all things holiday fun and answering the questions below- hope you will join us!
