What’s Up Wednesday! I’m gonna link up with Sheaffer and Shay to answer a little about what’s going on around here.
What We’re Eating This Week
We have a unique week around here where we’ll be eating out more than normal, but this is what’s on the menu…
Monday-Birthday Dinner OUT to celebrate our favorite 70-year-old!
Tuesday-Turkey sausage, onions/peppers, and rice. I had some extra veggies like corn, okra, etc. we added. My people love this meal. I sautéd the turkey sausage and we made bowls with everyone’s favorite toppings. SO EASY!
Wednesday-Tab and I have date night out! {It’s BEEN A WHILE!} Kids are having homemade pizzas at home.
Thursday-Shay’s Pumpkin Sausage Pasta-Not gonna lie this always sounded so strange to me until I had it at my cousin’s house years ago. It’s a delicious combination and one I always make in the fall to welcome the cooler temps and well, Texas is below 90’s this week. That deserves to be celebrated. 🙂
Friday-We’re gonna fly by the seat of our pants. Maybe out? Maybe order in and watch football from the couch? Maybe snag some groceries for dinner? I’m not really sure. We’ll see how the week goes.
What I’m Reminiscing About
This kiddo and I are headed out to Tab’s football game this weekend and I’ve been reminiscing about the last time the two of us joined him. It’s gonna be a FUN weekend!
What I’m Loving
One of my girlfriends was at Ebby Lee’s JV game last week and sent Shay and I this pic. Loving that we all had babies together and now we’re seeing each other at high school football games.
I’m also loving that Marla, my sweet mother-in-law, had a special birthday this week and I got to spend several days celebrating her! The family and I had dinner with her on her birthday eve in McKinney to celebrate! We had to celebrate a day early so the whole family could attend.
And then yesterday, I go to celebrate on her ACTUAL birthday with a lunch out with some of her favorite friends!
What We’ve Been Up To
Lots of football games…Thursday nights, Friday nights, and Saturdays for our crew. Nixon and a friend were ball boys at the varsity game Friday.
Meanwhile, Bowen and a friend were checking their fantasy football numbers on my phone. 😉
We’ve been enjoying LOTS of high school football games!
And Saturday morning games for Bowen. My #15 looks giant in that picture!
And I wasn’t even expecting us to be playing baseball but we are! It was good to see Nixon out on the field this past weekend. Now would I have preferred the games be a bit shorter and the weather a bit cooler? YES and YES! 🙂
What I’m Working On
I’m working on keeping pumpkins off my porch. Here in Texas, I try to buy them at the beginning of October but right now I’m itching to get them now. I’m READY for pumpkins and mums!
What I’m Excited About
I just placed a big Amazon fashion order and can’t wait for all those goodies to come in so I can share the “hits” with you!
What I’m Watching/Reading
I just finished the first episode of The Golden Bachelorette and I must say she’s STUNNING! But so far I’m gotta give props to the men on the show. They were all so kind, encouraging and nice to each other. I’m used to seeing the show when any drama among the guys/girls is welcomed and this was a nice break!
Also, FOOTBALL IS BACK! So five days a week that’s what can be found on our television!
In the Wild Light is the book I just started. I’ve heard such great things and can’t wait to get into this one.
What I’m Listening To
I’m midway through the first season of The Girlfriends podcast.
What I’m Wearing
I’ve been wearing a similar look a lot lately…some type of sleeveless top, jeans, and fall looking shoes. :). You can find my items above….vest, high waist wide leg jeans, loafers.
What I’m Doing This Weekend
You’ll find me in the stands watching my favorite guy do his thing.
Latest Amazon Purchase
I’m anxiously awaiting the arrival of these fall pajamas!
What I’m Looking Forward to Next Month
ALL THINGS HALLOWEEN!
WE ARE READY!
Hope you guys have a GREAT Wednesday! Thanks for reading today!
XO
What a fun little catch up post. I love those pumpkin pajamas, and now I’m totally interested in watching the Golden Bachelorette! Love the pic of the girls with Karla!
You need to! Those guys were SO NICE! Maybe they’ll turn crazy on the second episode but it’s SO different than watching it when the guys/girls are so full of drama. WAY different!
Looks like life is so fun and busy! Have a great day!

While I’d go back to babies in a heart beat, this stage is really fun!
There are just SO MANY fun things to be excited about this month! Those pjs are suuuuuper cute!!
I thought so too!
What skincare does Ebby Lee use? Her skin is always so clear for a teen!
Hey Sarah! She’ll be so excited you said that! Thank you! She did Accutane about two years ago and it was exactly what her skin needed. She had acne that we just couldn’t shake. I know Accutane has lots of side effects but it was finally worth it to us. She’s so glad she did it. And often asks to do it again. Her skin GLOWED when she was on that medication. I think that just reset her skin enough that now she’s able to use drug store brand cleanser and such to keep it all at bay.
