It has been tricky finding time to put this post together each week, but I do enjoy having our day-to-day lives documented, so I’m gonna try my best to share IG photos at least monthly.
Playing in the backyard. Life is good!
Have you tried any of the flavored Oreos? I had to buy them! The birthday cake ones are much better than the banana split ones. I definitely prefer the original version best though!
It’s officially fall in Minnseota! Loving all the colors! (This was the middle of September before this tree turned RED)
The tire swing gets some great use by the neighbor kids. Apparently rollerblades also work great in the grass…?? Shoes are over-rated.
It took some time, but I finally finished up these nightstands for the basement. Lesson learned, when using white chalk paint, you should still use primer. It was a never ending paint project!!!
On a family movie night (most Friday nights) we introduced Anthony to Goonie’s. We had forgotten so much of this movie and it was fun to watch it again. As I mentioned yesterday, the basement is usable, even though it’s not finished yet…
We went to a traditional shrimp boil at a friends. This meal was AMAZING!! Shrimp, Andouille sausage, potatoes, onions and lots of spices with Louisiana hot sauce. Seriously, it was crazy good! Then we introduced them to Cards Against Humanity. It was a fun night!
Again, this is fall. Our neighbor’s have the perfect tree.
We parked our camper in Grandpa’s shed a few weeks ago. It’s always an adventure to explore Grandpa’s shed. He has been collecting things over the years and he stores a lot of things in his shed. Including several old tractors. Anthony likes them!
The boys on Grandpa’s tractor – aren’t the cute?!?
I thought they were both gonna kill me when I suggested we stop for a few pictures by a corn field. I think hubby was worried that someone he knew would drive by and think he was crazy. We were surrounded by corn fields, so it just seemed like something we needed to do.
Here’s a better picture of the trunk/coffee table I mentioned yesterday. It was a flea market find and we just spray painted some casters to match the finish. They raised it up off the floor to the perfect height for the couch.
My computer… So with all of my playing in Photoshop and all of the pictures I take, my computer became extremely low on memory and space. The first upgrade is complete (doubled the RAM) but now I’m waiting on a new hard drive (to double the storage). I’m not in the market for a new laptop yet. We are saving our money for vacation, not a new computer. (Beautiful sunny beaches, here we come!)
We had some good friends visit this past weekend. Their son is 2, and he loves to play with all of Anthony’s old toys. His love for cars is adorable. Anthony did a great job playing with him!
While working on some projects, hubby found a walking stick on one of our windows!
Oh Jimmy John’s… Anthony LOVES JJ’s and can eat an entire sandwich! He and I have a nearly weekly dinner date night on Wednesday’s before piano lessons. We often end up at Jimmy John’s. The #5 unwich (lettuce wrap – no bread) with hot peppers is my favorite!
That’s a quick snapshot of what we have been up to.
What did you do this week?
