Friday Favorites

This post should really be called Weekly Roundup, but these are some of my favorite moments of the week.  It started Sunday with Mother's Day!



Car Selfie on the way to pick up the littles.



Yes David is snoozing, poor baby worked all night but still wanted to go to lunch with his mama. 



Always with the tongue ;-(


Yes I'm up!!!!

My sweetness!  He came up to the car with the most beautiful flowers this mom has ever gotten!  I was touched beyond words and was brought to tears!  


Beautiful, right?



Me and the gang!






"Together is my favorite place"



Selfie monday!







Because when I cook a homemade meal, it must be photographed, instagramed and of course blogged, duh!





Washington Wednesday, this girl went to Food and Friends in DC.  She packed food for the less fortunate.  Here she is with her old roommate, Hailey.





I spy Brianna at chapel on Thursday!  I told her to wave and she flipped me the bird.  This girl needs Jesus in the worse way!!!!!

share it saturday



Friday favorites got away from me this week, so share Saturday it is.  This week was dreary and rainy, 10 days of straight rain.  Found no motivation to get moving at all.  We started out the week celebrating David's 24th Birthday, wooohooo!


Tuesday, this girl (v) calls at the last minute to let me know there's a track meet, what the what!


   

Selfie game was on point though...her hair <3

This was her best of the day 15'1"...not bad.  Of course due to the rainy day, the rest of the meet was cancelled.



Got this candid shot of this boy at PT this week (thanks Bri, money is in the account)


Katie had her annual "Dr. Eyebrow" visit.  First time she went alone...adult much?  All is good so far, a little high blood pressure.  Next year will be a reevaluation year with a MRI to determine when next surgery will be.


Friday night she hooked back up with Matt, her fishing buddy/prom date/ex boyfriend, and they went to Chris Young concert.  

Meanwhile, Dave and I, trekked back up to EHS for a track meet, only to have it cancelled, again due to the rain!  We had a nice long drive home and dinner at Vinny's and like the old people we are in bed by 8!!!!  

But the kids had a good week, I just love getting snaps of their days.

David's "24th Birthday

 Tuesday was the boy who made me a mama birthday.  I can't believe he turned 24.  It feels like just yesterday he was born.  My little gorilla boy, with a Mickey Mouse hairline.  Oh how I miss those days.  One of life's biggest truths is that babies don't keep.



We started off the morning with some online shopping for shoes.  He's such a pain to shop for!!!


We then went to TJ Maxx.  He got quite a loot ^^


For dinner we went to Buffalo Wild Wings!






 Obligatory picture with mom and dad!  Yes that's a pink cake.  Pink has always been a favorite of his!



 My Boy

Not so much happening....

The not so empty nest has been awfully quite the last couple of weeks.  Its amazing with Brandon out of sport how quiet our schedule is.  Bri's track meets average about one a week but last week was a bi week.  

Friday, Bri sent me this snap shot of Brandon working out on the underwater treadmill.  It's a hard life living at a fancy boarding school....not!  I guess the one silver lining in his injury, is the ability to rehab at a great facility with all the fancy equipments and a personal trainer.


Saturday, EHS had the Special Olympics.  Here's Brandon having lunch with his buddy for the day.


Meanwhile at Case Williams, these two were twinning being couch potatoes, binge watching netflix.




Sunday morning...we love some Panera's and actually got our favorite table for a change!




And finally this girl, a HOT MESS!  Literally and Figuratively!  She was whining all day (I wanna come home, I hate my roomie, I don't want to clean my room...blah blah blah)  So what does she do? She almost burned down the entire dorm.  SMH


(No updates on David cause he's either at work or in his room, but today is his Birthday...so tomorrow's post will be all about him!)

Life Lately

Life lately has been busy...We had EHS version of Prom, "FINALS DANCE" this past saturday.  Yet another downfall of boarding school, was missing out on seeing them get ready and taking pictures.  But I think they did pretty good of keeping me included.  My one request was atlas one picture of them together and they did not disappoint!!!!!



 How beautiful does Brianna look?  Brianna's teacher, Ms. Echo did her hair...adorable!!! .... and don't even get me started on my handsome boy!  When did they get so grown up ;-(


                   

Brandon and Emma!  The look like Ken and Barbie!  Precious!



                                           

Brianna and Lauren!  I continue to feel blessed for the friends they've made at EHS.

Meanwhile this girl has decided to become a professional angler.  WTH!  She goes fishing almost on the daily.



Wednesday is Washington Program at EHS.  Seems like Bri always goes on Field Trips while Brandon stays on campus or maybe Bri just sends me pics.  Either way, I love getting these snapshots of their day.  She is such the goof!




I did get to spend a little time with Brandon on Wednesday.  His surgeon upped his PT, so we went to the therapist to get a new routine.  One day closer!
