Friday Favorites

Praise God for Fri Yay!  Who's with me?  Ha ha!!

As always, linking up with some lovely ladies to share some faves from our week HERE

Are you ready? 

Memories

As we prepare for our parents' 50th Wedding Anniversary, my Aunt has been instrumental in gathering some old pictures for me.  I love looking at them and reminiscing...and always get a kick out of our hairstyles and fashion too!

Ribbon Cutting Ceremony

Our new Golden Brook School is official- we enjoyed the ribbon cutting ceremony on Tuesday night and I got a bit choked up as this took several years to pass in our town AND so much work from so many...was so happy to see Rob enjoy his work and know that it will pay off for many generations!

That Newish Cornflower Blue Suit

Have you seen it?  Several retailers carry this oh so modern suit- beautiful cornflower blue color- skinny/tapered fit- Oh so modern

one of my new faves AND both my Dad and Hubby snagged one....I love how everyone sends me dressing room pictures because they know how much I appreciate fashion :)  (they both scored the suit at Express which kills me- so hip and trendy!)

Insert Heart Eyed Emoji Here ;)

Hallmark?

Oh yes....check out the countdown...I am so excited...is that wrong?  I know most are probably rolling their eyes but I am even more excited this year...we have so much to be grateful for AND to celebrate...what better way than with romance and positive messages???

Nutcracker Tryouts

We are gearing up for Nutcracker Tryouts this Sunday!  This year Eva is trying out too!  It is hard not to get wrapped up in all of this excitement as Diana is obsessed and works three times a hard this time of year...love watching her....this pic was from only three years ago and these nuggets have grown so much!

Sweet Moments

At the bus stop....in the dance studio....at home...this is my life right now and I couldn't be happier :)

Oh and this one...our last beach day of the 2019 season.....

It's PTA Season Again!

Last night was our first meeting of the new school year and prior to the meeting two of my besties and I met up for a quick snack and cocktail and to get each other pumped up...never enough time to catch up with these two!
