Happy Friday! This week has been a great mix of school and summer stuff. It has been BUSY, but so much fun! I have some favorites to share with you, so let’s get to it.
Favorite 1: POOL!! I didn’t make it to the pool every day this week, but I did get there a few times and it was wonderful! I saw my friends, swim team started, Jack guarded, and we all enjoyed the sunshine!
Favorite 2: MOVIE!! I very rarely watch a movie. I think the last one I watched was Barbie. We had a very rainy Wednesday afternoon and I have been thinking about an old favorite movie for weeks. Have you ever seen Back to the Beach? Did you love it? We LOVED it growing up and I still love it now! I rented it and have already watched/had it on twice in my 48 hours.
Favorite 3: ACTIVE DRESSES!! I know I talk about them all the time, but I really love them! This week I wore my pink dress to school and then stayed a little later to cut down some tall grasses in our school’s courtyard that have gotten out of control. It was HOT, but I got it done and could still run errands around town. I wore my blue dress with a super cute zip up from the Masters (thanks Annie!). I also wore my Lilly active dress one day and ran around after school getting lots done for the weekend and week ahead. I was so comfy!
Favorite 4: KIDS!! Jack had his last day of school and I am so proud of him! He had a great freshman year. He made a lot of great friends, did so well in school, had 3 great sports seasons, and managed his time in a way that really impressed me!
Jack has been relaxing on his first few days of summer, but he has also been tackling the lists I am leaving for him. It’s great to come home to a few extra chores done and a happy kid!
I found Luke snuggled in my bed one morning this week. It has been a long time since he last crawled in my bed while I was downstairs exercising. The past week or so has been a struggle to get to bed with all the summer fun around.
I took off Monday afternoon and was able to scoop Rita’s for Luke’s 7th grade play day. I haven’t volunteered much in middle school and this was so fun!
Favorite 5: BRACELETS! It is no secret that I love bracelets. I mixed some gold with colorful bracelets this week and loved the stack!
I also loved this set with my pink dress.
Favorite 6: KINDLE!! Jeff often reads at night and on vacation. When we went to Florida in February, he didn’t want to take the giant book he was reading and I got an idea. I decided that the kids and I were going to give him a kindle for Father’s Day. We are getting ready to do a little traveling this weekend so we gave it to him early. I think he is loving it. He also got a new library card to use Libby for books. I always love when more people use the library and read!

I am so excited to get my toes in the sand this weekend! Luke has a lacrosse tournament at the beach and his games are all early in the morning. Woohoo for beach time! I know that we’ll finish our audio book on our way to the beach and need to pick another one. Have a weekend full of sunshine and books!
