Wednesday Lovin'

It’s another Wednesday morning, I’ve got plenty to do – make the bed, fold some clothes, get lunches ready, make Cooper’s breakfast.  Yet, what am I doing?  Yeah, that’s right, I’m linking up with Jamie for another WILW.  Wednesday is my favorite time for blogging. 

I love telling you all about my loves for the week!  Here are a few:

I’m loving the Crocband Wedge sandal.  It’s so cute and I’m sure super comfortable, I’ve got two pairs of Croc’s that aren’t the original clog type and I just love them, when these bad boys go on sale, I’ll be picking out a pair of them too!

I’m loving that the Indiana State Fair is right around the corner – it starts next week as a matter of fact.  The state fair is a family tradition and I’m hoping the temps aren’t too hot so that we can go and enjoy some good times and fair food!

I’m loving JCPenney!  This past weekend, my mom and I went to do a bit of shopping and I found so many good shirts at JCPenney.  I hadn’t been shopping there in awhile, so it was a pleasant surprise!

I’m loving the 100 chocolate chip recipes link from Recipe Girl!  Check it out, so many good things to try in the coming months/years!

Last but not least, I’m loving these two awesome guys!



What are you loving today? Link up with Jamie and let us know!

Terrific Tuesday

Today, I’m going to make my day terrific.  Regardless of what I’m doing, I’ve decided, it’s going to be a great day.

I am working, the temperature outside is supposed to be in the mid 90s and my hubby has to work late and has dinner with a vendor tonight.  Normally all of these things would make me dread this day, but not today.  Today I am going to be optimistic.  I am going to have a new outlook.

After work when I pick Cooper up, I’m hoping to do something fun with him.  Something more special than coming home, making dinner and then playing around the house.  Right now, I have no idea what that’ll be, do you have any suggestions? 

I hope you too can make this a Terrific Tuesday, we have so many things in our lives to be thankful for, it’s time to look on the bright side of life and recognize everything isn’t all rain and storm clouds ahead! J

Happy Tuesday Friends!

What I'm Lovin' this Wednesday

Link up with Jamie and tell us what you're loving today!

I'm loving our AIR CONDITIONER!!  It has been super duper hot this week and it's supposed to continue in the upper 90s through the weekend.  We're talking 99 degrees tomorrow and with humidity added, it'll feel like 110!!!

I'm loving Instagram! 

It turns this:

And certainly loving this guy everyday:

Remember to link up and tell us what you love on this hump day!

Misc Monday

Can I be honest?  I'm not happy it's Monday again.  I had a great weekend and I'm ready for it to continue, not at all ready to be back at work.  But it is Monday and it is time to sit at my desk and make the donuts so to speak.

I thought since I haven't participated in Miscellany Monday lately, that I'd link up with Carissa and tell you a few randoms from my weekend.  All picture-less because I left my memory card in the camera.......  I'll load pictures to my project 365 page soon. (hopefully!)

{one}  I was fortunate enough to celebrate my grandfather's 74th birthday with him and lots of other family on Saturday evening.  It was super hot outside, but so wonderful to be able to share in the celebration!

{two}  My aunt baked a delicious chocolate cherry cake for the event.  It was amazing and I can't wait to get the recipe and give it a whirl myself.

{three} My Cooper and my nephew Layne were little boy wonders in the kiddie pool on Saturday night.  They were so cute.  I love how they are becoming friends and that being only 6 months apart, they'll grow up pretty close pals, at least that's our hope!

{four} Spending time with my family makes me so very thankful that we live close enough to them that we are able to visit so often!

{five} We went swimming with my mom and her husband, and had such a great time with them on Saturday afternoon and Cooper just loved swinging with his Nana! :)

That's enough random for me today, link up with Carissa and be random with us this Monday!

*T*G*I*F*

I cannot say enough how I'm so glad it's Friday, THANK GOODNESS!

This weekend should be good and I can't wait - only 10 more minutes and it's my weekend!

I hope you have a good weekend!

Lovin’ me some Wednesday

Link up with Jamie for more WILW posts!

I’m soooo glad it’s Wednesday.  It’s finally mid week.  I’ve had a couple of crazy days this week.

I’m LOVING my mostly clean garage! This past weekend we spent out in our garage cleaning.  Cleaning Cleaning and more cleaning.  That garage was gross.  It hadn’t been cleaned in almost two years.  There wasn’t room for a single car in there.  Now, it’s nice and clean.  At least my mini-van fits now.

Views from each corner:

I’m LOVING two especially wonderful blogs……  I get so many great recipes from these two ladies.  I just love them! 





I’m LOVING this little boy.



I’m LOVING this wonderful man.




Well, I hope everyone has a wonderful happy Wednesday! 

Monday Blahs.

It's me, I'm here, but I've sure got a case of the Monday BLAHS.  I don't feel like being here, I just want to crawl back into bed and take a nap, then get up and bake something. Something horrible for me, like Jenny's Chocolate Chip and Peanut Butter Truffle Swirled Cookies.  But, I won't. 

I've got a lot to do today, after a way too short weekend of cleaning our garage, I need to get caught up on my house and our laundry.  That will come tonight.  Along with whatever else comes up in between.

I truly hope everyone has a better Monday morning than I seem to be having right now.  If I can make myself wake up soon, it'll be a miracle. 

Tell me, what do you do to get out of a funk on a Monday morning?????

Thankful Thursday

I just love Thursdays.  It’s almost the weekend, and another day to look around and be thankful for all blessings around me.

link up and tell us what you're thankful for!

 

Today I am thankful…..

For family dinners.  Everyone gathered around the table partaking in a meal, catching up on the day’s events and enjoying one another.

For my job.  I work with some wonderful people, and have a great “job life.”  I’ve been at my current place of employment for 7 years now, met my husband here and have made wonderful friends.  It’s been such a blessing to me!

For our pool.  Cooper loves it and we have some great family time out there.  It’s especially fun with Cooper’s siblings join us for a swim, he just loves them!

For blogging!  I’ve been absent for almost two weeks now, due to busy-ness at work and our “staycation”  I’m glad to be back and hope to be consistently blogging again soon!

Have a great Thursday/Friday and weekend everyone, see you next week!
