Friday Favorites-4.25.25

Happy Friday!

Guys, spring has SPRUNG! So have all the spring activities. haha!

I’m here with FIVE FAVORITES from our week…

We celebrated Nixon’s birthday with a few friends at a local fowling place. If you’re thinking WHAT is that?! I was too!

Fowling = Football + Bowling

It was a FAVORITE way to celebrate a fifteen-year-old! Fowling, darts, Jenga, and lots of food!

*************************

We kicked off Monday morning with this cutie snagging the Kindness Award on the announcements! I love when kids gets awarded but for kindness?! Gotta be a FAVORITE!

************************

A FAVORITE way to end the last home game of the baseball season is with a LEOPARD WIN! An afternoon game with THE most perfect weather was just icing on the cake!

Gary and Marla {Grandparents} came to watch!

*************************

Have you guys watched Good American Family? I’ve been watching and WHOAAAAA!!! I love any documentary and this is a FAVORITE! After I started watching Good American Family, Hulu recommended…

Devil in the Family, The Fall of Ruby Franke….another WHOOOOOAAAAAAA!!! If you’re into documentaries as well, check these out! They’re FAVORITES!

*************************

I made one of Shay’s dinner recipes this week, Shepherd’s Pie Bowls, and they’re a new family FAVORITE! My family loves Shepherd’s Pie but this was perfect for a busy night. The meat mixture was in the slow cooker {and I added carrots because my people enjoy a cooked carrot} so you could eat whenever you got home. I used these potatoes to make it even easier….

Tab added hot sauce and skipped the potatoes, Britt added lots of potatoes and cheese, Bowen just ate a LOT…hahaha! Everyone made their bowl their preferred way and they were delish!

*************************

I hope you have THE BEST weekend!

    I have never heard of Fowling before, it sounds like a great celebration for Nixon! Happy birthday!!
    Yes! I am hooked on Good American Family! I watched the first 5 episodes over a couple of days and now have to wait for the new one every week. I was so shocked by the Ruby Franke documentary.
    Those Shepherd Pie Bowls look so good!
