Weekly Favorites #15

Hi Foxy Friends! Hope you are having a great week. So thankful it's Friday, so much to do between when I am writing this post and tomorrow at work. But I got this, I can do it. We're moving offices next week, so I need to pack up all my stuff...that should be fun. Anyway, onto fun things from this week.

Friday I really wanted ice cream, but told the kids I was taking them to Costco and if they were good I would take them to get McDonald's ice cream cones...I get credit for being the good Mom and I get ice cream, win-win. Also Mr. came home after a week away, that was nice.

Saturday was full of baseball.

And then we had our baseball fundraiser, they do a poker night, which was super fun. Guys played poker and the ladies chatted and caught up. Pre-party at a friends house.

They did a really great job stringing the lights from the trees. This was the final table of poker. The person who won donated  his winnings back to the Little League, pretty awesome of him.

Ladies having fun.

It was a great night and they raised $10K, not too shabby for a Saturday evening.

Sunday we woke up bright and early, okay not really, but we woke up and got ready to drive to my cousin's daughters 1st Holy Communion. Luckily it was at 11 and it's about 100 miles away, so we didn't have to leave too early to get there on time. The church, the same church that Mr. and I got married in, did a great job. It was a beautiful mass.

These three cousins all got their 1st Holy Communion the past couple of weeks, so proud of them all.

Party, hard getting that many kids to look at the camera at the same time.

Some randoms...Tuesday, this was the line to sign my kid up for summer camp. I got there 15 minutes early, they started 30 minutes earlier than they had said, much better than last year, phew!

Wednesday, Mr. texts me this as I'm at training for the PTA (yep you have to get training, who knew), I think I have a problem.

This girl saw these flowers on the way to Baby Fox's baseball practice and wanted to take a picture, she's so dang cute. She posed herself.

Kids had their half yearly dentist check up...they both did great, no cavities.

He got X-rays.

His teeth cleaned

And then had to get a Pano (is that how it's spelled?) done

This was the pano...crazy how many teeth you can see in there! Where are they all going to fit?!

On our way out, the front office gave me this rose and said Happy Mother's Day. So darn sweet of them, I might have to always make an appointment for Mother's Day week from now on. Made my whole day.

In case you missed it on the blog this week:

Monday: What I've been buying
Tuesday: Sentence A Day
Wednesday: Go To Summer Outfit
Thursday: Tea Subscription Box

What are you guys doing this weekend? We're finally seeing End Game...have you seen it yet? No spoilers! There was someone on my FB feed that insisted that if you wanted to see it you should have and that spoilers were okay...I muted him for 30 days, not cool man! We can't all just jump to see a movie first weekend it's out. Anyway, have a great weekend and to all the mom's out there. Happy Mother's Day! I hope you get spoiled rotten!

Weekly Favorites #13

Hi Foxy Friends. Happy Friday! Today is my off Friday AND Mr. is coming back! It's been a long 6 days! But I made it, we got Panda Express for dinner last night, so all is good with the world...until he leaves again in 3 weeks. Anyway, back to Weekly Favorites, so much happened last weekend.

Last week this kid lost his second tooth in a week. He's so excited to finally loose some teeth at 8.

Mini Fox got the mail the other day and divided the piles by category. From left to right:  not sure what to do pile,  throw away pile, keep pile (which ha check marks and hearts on it). Funny enough, all the piles had junk mail in it.

Both my brother and my Mother-In-Law came to visit, so one slept down stairs while the other slept in Mini Fox's room, which means that both Baby and Mini Fox sleep together. We were going to set up a blow up mattress, but they insisted on sleeping together. Just before we snapped this picture, they were facing each other with arms draped on each other. They moved right before we took the picture. Darn.

Saturday was Baby Fox's big day, First Holy Communion. We are so proud how hard he's worked towards this goal for the last 3 years.

Baby Fox did a reading, a friend was so kind to take a picture for us.

Big group right? The other half is going this coming weekend.

Best cake, they did such a great job decorating too.

After lunch/party Baby Fox got ready for his 2 hour belt test. We are so proud how hard he's work for this goal, each belt gets him one closer to black.

Final test, balancing books on their back while answer what each belt represents. This is more for fun, if the book fell it wasn't a big deal, just put it back on and keep going. Which is what their lesson was, don't give up, just keep working at it.

Baby Fox securing his new blue belt under the rocker so that it wouldn't get wet, it was super cute. Yes we still have that rocker, no we don't use it other than to hold our electronics when we are in the bath, lol.

So one more event Saturday night. I told you that we had a ton of stuff going on Saturday, when it rains it pours. We had Baby Fox's Fundraising Gala for his school. Theme was Red Carpet Ready, everyone who helped organize it did such a great job. I helped a bit, but mostly just showed up and spent money, lol.

Note: I tried a new eye make up look and I really like the way it came out.

It was such a great evening with friends raising money for our kids.

Not much on the blogging front, but I did get two blog posts out this week. 

Wednesday I shared the perfect dress to wear for upcoming events this Spring and Summer. Wedding season is upon us.

Thursday I shared what I am buying at the Sephora sale, this happens once or twice a year, so stock up on your beauty stuff now, 10-20% discount is WAY better than nothing!

 

If you made it to the end, thanks for baring with me. I do use this blog as a record for our family. I use to try and maintain a family blog and this blog, but it was too much, so now you guys get to know everything about us. So thanks! This weekend, is full of baseball and more first communions. I want to go see End Game, but don't think we'll have time this weekend, as Saturday night we have another fundraiser for baseball.

Have a great weekend!
