Week in Review.

Hi there!  I haven't done a week in review post for a while, much less posted anything.  This is a good way to get you up to date!  Since I now have Instagram on my phone, I use that instead of Retro Cam.  So, here is a Instagram Week in Review!



1 & 2 - Dentist visits... everything looks good but I think there are braces in the future.
3 - Mornings with Mom @ school.
4 - An awesome quilt that I got for only $15 at an Estate sale!  I love it!
5 - Coming soon ...yum!
6 - Watching our nephew's Little League game.
7 - Meeting my friend's adorable new golden-doodle puppy, Bailey.
8 - First peony of the season!
9 - Back at our summer hangout.  This is a picture of the tractor pulling the pontoon boat to put it in the lake.
10 - On our way to a walking trail.  This girl thinks of this dog as her baby and is so affectionate towards him.
11 - After a hot walk, we treated ourselves to some slushies!
12 - A great way to end a long weekend... playing dodge ball in the sprinklers!

Retro Cam {Week in Review 10}


1.  We had more summer like weather last week!  We had the air on and were rocking the tank tops, shorts, and flip flops.  But the heat is back on today.

2.  We stopped for a slush after school one day.  Hey, it's not every March in Michigan that you can enjoy 80+ degrees.

3.  With the week of warm weather, everything was in full bloom.  It's beautiful!  Tonight, however, it is supposed to freeze so we covered up our budding hydrangeas and Japanese Maple.

4.  We ate dinner on TV trays a few nights since I was putting some polyurethane on the kitchen table.  It was quite cozy.

5.  Nail polish!

6.  Izzy wanted to do nails.  ♥  I painted hers red with black puppy paws and she painted mine blue with fireworks. 

7.  The commercials for Nutella never looked good to me, until I tried it at a friends house.  It's so good... tastes great with graham crackers and peanut butter.

8.  A busy weekend with 2 flag football games.  One more game.  It's been a fun experience!

************
Have a great week!!!

Retro Cam {Week in Review 9}

Hi ya'll.  Sorry about not posting last week.  We were sick.  But, we are all better, so here's my post for the week:


1.  Visiting daddy at the home show...
2.  ...then going out to dinner at Culver's ... did you know that is my favorite restaurant?  Yes, I'm sure you did.  However, we have decided not to go out to eat for a month unless we are doing something with friends.  So, I guess we won't see Culver's for a little while.  :-(
3.  My buddy boy.  He loves to snuggle.
4.  Then we got sick... lots of Gatorade.
5.  It has been crazy warm here -- crazy!
6.  Warm enough for a car wash.
7.  Neighborhood kids giving each other tattoos (with washable markers).
8.  Parent helper in Eli's class.
9.  Another DIY project - spray paint and polyurethane.
10.  Coloring!
11.  I went to my first garage sale of the season... yay... and found some good deals!!
12.  After a week off of my P90X workout, I got back into it today- a little Arms & Shoulders.

I hope you are enjoying this early spring/summer like weather as much as us.  The kids had the day off and while they played outside, I was able to read a book and just relax for a bit.  For the last day of winter, it was pretty unbelievable.

Retro Cam {Week in Review 3}

This week in review is a little boring.  Everyone has a cold and it's been a somewhat tiring week.  Izzy was out of school for 2 days, Eli was up at night coughing a lot, and Joel has been battling a sore throat and cough.  And to be honest, I haven't been sleeping great due to everyone else's sickness.  So, we've tried to just take it easy.

1.  Homemade banana bread - I always buy bananas at the grocery store, but we never eat them up, so there are always a couple bananas around to make bread

2.  Izzy reading with her sidekick

3.  Eli in his football gear

4.  Izzy coloring - home from school

5.  Tony Horton + P90X = a sore me

6.  Chipotle for lunch with my hubby

7.  2 redbox movies this weekend

8 & 9.  Priming the kids bathroom

*** Hope you  had a great weekend! ***
