It's the 2nd most favorite of the year!

My kids are gone all weekend.  And while the hubs and I have been busy napping and going out to eat, some work still needs to get done:)  I decided to decorate for Fall, strip their beds, change over to Fall clothes and I am sticking pumpkins everywhere and I love it!!

Speaking of all things Fall - The Mums scent from Mrs. Meyers - OH MAH GAH!  Amazing.

We made it to the mall and saw these cute monster Pj's and had to get them!

Gap Kids

Pottery Barn Kids has been killing it with their bunting.  I snagged cute black and orange pom-poms and a Thankful one for November. 

J Crew factory had the cutest henleys for the boys with a touch of chambray!

Don't worry I didn't just shop for the kids - I got to go to sephora too!  

Have I mentioned I love this time of year?!?

And they are off!

1st Days of School over here  - for all my boys.

Big boys started Tuesday, little dude Thursday.  I'm a little worried about Pierce not being ready for all day, Brady just wanted to wear his new Jordan's and Reid was SO ready.  He has been trying to sneak into school for over a year!

Family photo op- dad made it home in time to put the boys on the bus the first day.

After we took Reid, mom and dad got to go on a breakfast date.  Which I hope is the first of many!!

Seeing that I have 2.5 hours to myself everyday maybe I should get that bloodwork from a year ago done :)

Give me all the Sweatshirts

It's Fall!  I have been dropping some cash on sweatshirts over here.  Nordstrom, Mindy Mae's - just
take my credit card.  Paired with leggings, boots or some Hunter's - Bring on the crisp air and cool nights.  I'm ready!

Birthday Post

Let's not even talk about how old I am.  Let's just discuss gifts!

My favorite color is yellow so....this hoodie from Mindy Mae's.  I am in love with so much stuff right now on her website.  I want every cardigan.

I need this gold pair of Kendra Scott Dee drop earrings.

So much makeup I have been wanting to buy myself from Sephora.  I have been holding off bc of all the back to school shopping I have been doing!  But mama needs some new primer.  And a new Kate Wallet like this.

I am obsessed with polka dots.

I just bought myself this adorable pink pot that I have been eyeing from Target.  Clearance for $24,99 - just in time for soup season!

I am actually working on my birthday because I am lame and never requested off.  I did manage to be off for all the first days of schools for my boys - what can I say I am a mama first!

Jellystone

We have gone to Jellystone for 3 years now and by far this was the best trip ever!  My dad came this year (last year he missed because he was in the hospital recovering from a heart attack, the boys were older which meant no meltdowns or tears which equals a lot less stress on us.  Camp was freezing though, so much for the End of August being hot.  Papa brought down a bag of sweatpants for the boys and for me which was a lifesaver.  I brought 1 pair pf pj pants which I would have been forced to wear everyday.  Meatball was the master packer like usual and did offer me a pair of adorable skull pj pants and socks.

My sister bought a projector, some crazy expensive cord to plug your phone into it and a sheet from Walmart - BAM!  Instant movies by the campfire.  The kids watched Sing, Lady and the Tramp, Minions.  And then when they went to bed we watched stuff we like - Adventures in Babysitting, Troop Beverly Hills and we watched the fight Saturday night for the dudes.  I haven't seen 1am in a long time.

The air mattress debacle.  Where to begin, the mattresses at camp are horrible.  Super thin, hard as a rock so I thought if we brought down our (used one time) air mattress it would help.  Well it would have - if it didn't have a hole in it!  We would blow it up everyday and then by night time it would go flat.  Ugh!  It did give us something to laugh about every night.  I found one on Amazon for $18 - so maybe they are one time use?

It was Halloween weekend which was so fun for the kids.  Any excuse to wear their costumes and they are happy!

My favorite part of camp was when the little ones would ask to sit on our lap every night by the fire.  They would be asleep in minutes which means I get to steal kisses and carry them to bed.  We already booked next year!
