Let's Catch Up

  Hi Foxy Friends! So sorry I've been MIA lately. I'm not sure what's going on, sort of in a blogging funk and trying to enjoy life at the moment. I know we've all been there. I figured a good post to update you all is  Shay, and Sheaffer link up for their What's Up Wednesday. Turns out the last time I did one of these was back in October. So here we go:

1. What We're Eating 

Funny, as I was looking at the last time I did this, we had the same thing for dinner, LOL. Totally random as I haven't probably made this since then! Although, last time I made this crockpot lasagna, this time I did it the oven way.


Also eating...okay just cooking meatloaf. We cooked it last night, but it took too long to cook so we ate left over lasagna instead, which I wasn't mad about.


2. What I'm Reminiscing About

Last Memorial Day we celebrated with relatively new friends, and now...





I can't imagine doing life without them.




3. What I'm Loving

That I know so many people that went to the New Kids On The Block concert. And the fact that Tiffany, Debbie Gibson and Salt-N-Pepa, Naughty By Nature were there too.

The fact that I can find friends that are willing to wear the same shirt and jeans, yep want to hang out with them.



We also found people at the restaurant that we went to that were also going to the same concert, so of course they become your best friends and you all take pictures together.


Relived my teenage years, best night with good friends!



4. What We've Been Up To

What have we not been up to? End of baseball games.


Celebrating a birthday with friends.


Hanging with Daddy watching a movie before he leaves for his week long business trip.


End of the year performances, Baby Fox did a great job.


Bunko night with the girls. Turns out you can tell I did not participate in a sorority, evidence I'm the only awkward one doing the front row squat totally awkwardly. I'll work on it for next time.


OH and I won biggest loser, 6 rounds and I lost 5...haha, that's called a winner right there. The other girl I'm with won every other category, and it was her first time playing Bunko, fun night for her!



5. What I'm Dreading

Everyday I go to the Chiropractor. I've been going 3 days a week and the last 4 appointments have been pretty terrible and I've been having a lot of issues lately. It does, however, get slightly better with each session, but hurts like no other, like take your breathe away kind of hurt.

6. What I'm Working On

Oh I've been making tumblers lately...like this one:


and this one for our coaches:


I am also starting to make keychains...this mermaid one is so dang cute. I just got some charms to add to it as well, excited for that.



Working on a teacher one, just need to find the time to actually make them!

7.  What I'm Excited About

All of our summer plans! Going to Palm Springs for a quick one night getaway with some other families, then we're headed to Hawaii for 10 days, then I'm headed to Vegas to celebrate a friends 40th, excited about it all!

8. What I'm Watching/Reading

Just finished watching the second season of OA, if you haven't seen it, you need to, it's fantastic.



Also the second season of The Rain just came out, we watched the first episode last night, so far it doesn't disappoint.  Also watching The Originals, I had watched it when it came out, but then life got in the way and I couldn't keep up with two kids...so watching that, really enjoying it.

Oh and of course Handmaids Tale and Black Mirror are coming back next week, eeek





9. What I'm Listening To

Loving this cover by Taylor Ward and Karis On the Rocks, so good!

Well I bought a bunch of stuff from Old Navy and haven't had a chance to take pictures of me in them yet, but here is everything I bought.

These workout Tanks...I got the black, but might need to get them in every color, the back is my favorite.

Also got this workout tank because I realized all of my current workout tanks weren't bringing me joy, I need Joy if I'm going to workout.

Polka Dot dresses make me happy.

So much so I got another one, different style though...

Have also been digging the flutter sleeve thing on anything. This dress in stripes, yes please!

I guess I have warm weather on the brain...now the Mother Nature needs to get on board.


11. What I'm Doing This Weekend

Going to a fundraiser for the kids school on Friday, then Saturday we're headed to my aunt and uncles house (sans kids) for dinner. My aunt won a prime rib...so we're turning it into a wine/prime rib dinner, yum! Can't wait for good company, good food, and good wine.

I made this for my aunt for her 60th. If you want to make one too, follow this tutorial.





12. What I'm Looking Forward To Next Month

I can't believe it's almost June, where did the year go? Looking forward to the end of school and all of the things that come with summer. Concerts in the park, hanging with friends, ice cream outings and warm weather.

13. What Else is New?

Not much else is new. Found these gem of photos on my camera roll as I was loading pictures.





If you made it to the end of this, thanks for sticking with me :) See you maybe tomorrow? Maybe Friday? Not sure, but see you when I see you!

Long Cardigans and Catching Up

Today you're getting a two for one. I'm linking up with The Blended Blog and the host Lana for the theme Long Cardigans. Truth be told I don't have a ton of long cardigans, although I think it looks great on other people, being on the shorter side, it's hard to find the right length that doesn't make me look WAY shorter than the look I am going for.

Also eating these, I really like them and can finish them off within a week...oops!



2. What I'm Reminiscing About

Past Halloween costumes, awww, the kids were so small! I love that we have created a tradition with friends to dress up. My favorites are the family themed ones, this year, we're in full family theme, and I cannot wait for Wednesday!

5. What I'm Dreading

Not much right now.

6. What I'm Working On

7.  What I'm Excited About

All the holiday things coming up and decorating for Christmas. With tomorrow being November 1st, is it too early? I'm thinking we might start next weekend though, it takes a couple of weekends to get everything up, I want to enjoy it for a long time!

11. What I'm Doing This Weekend

Going to my...I'm going to date myself, but most of you roughly know how old I am, but I'm going to my 20 year high school reunion! Like what?! How has it been 20 years?! A few friends and I are ditching the husbands and going together. We're going to get our hair done stay at a hotel, it's going to be a blast catching up and talking about the past.



12. What I'm Looking Forward To Next Month

Thanksgiving and going to the Polar Express in Arizona. Two of my favorite things to do!




13. What Else is New?

Not much, I pretty much told you everything...

Bonus Question: What's your all time favorite Halloween costume?

Hands down it's going to be tonights costume. We're going to be glow in the dark stick figure family. We are all so dang excited, and so far the couple of dry runs we did turned out great and gave me a chance to tweak them a bit each time. Don't worry I've been taking pictures and video on a full tutorial for you.

Now link up your fashion posts with Long Cardigans over on The Blended Blog.
