Friday Favorites-8.14.26

It’s the WEEKEND! And THE FIRST weekend school officially started back here in North Texas. I’m doing my best to choose gratitude and being so very thankful for every moment we had this summer rather than annoyed about summer being over. With having a senior, my goal is to SOAK IT ALL IN! Hope you guys are gearing up in the best of ways as well. 😉

As always, I’m teaming up with Andrea to bring you Friday FAVORITES! I have a list of random FAVORITES…{I TOTALLY just forgot to post last week. So some of these FAVES are OLD!}

Bowen had football camp a couple weeks ago but the camp just sent pictures. I spied this FAVORITE 8th grader of mine in a few…

Bowen and some of our family friends all snagged an award on the same night.

WHAT A GROUP for this camp!

Nixon was Bowen’s chauffeur to the camp every evening and I knew he was helping a bit if they needed him. I didn’t realize he and his teammates were in uniform on the last day until I saw this picture!

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

Our first Mom/Mahjong night in the books! My FAVORITE kind of evening spent with these lovely ladies!

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

Another FAVORITE kind of night? MONOPOLY NIGHT!! {Ebby Lee and I were both out of money WAY too soon but still fun!}

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

I spied Britt and a neighbor swimming one evening while I was making dinner. I took this through our back doors. Now that we’ve opened up that back wall of our house it’s SO nice! They can swim and I can watch while getting dinner ready! FAVORITE!

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

Britt had Meet the Teacher earlier this week and she has two teachers in fourth grade. One is new to our school but this teacher was on our hopes/dreams list so we were PUMPED she got in her class! She’s a FAVORITE of so many and Britt is looking forward to a great year!

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

Many of the girls in Britt’s class has been getting together for years to snag a pic before school starts. This year the girls were looking SO cute!

Can you tell some of these girls have older sisters? hahahaha!

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

We had some great FIRST DAYS in our house….

8th Grade

Nixon left crazy early for football but another mom sent this to me later in the day. Whew! 11th grade-

SENIOR…another pic taken way before the sun was up so we improvised with an inside pic.

4th Grade

Praying it’s a FAVORITE year for them all!

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

ALL these SENIOR things are SO MUCH FUN! This was a big group of the SENIOR girls after decorating their cars for the first day! FAVORITE!

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

Hope you have a great weekend!
