What's Up Wednesday (10/28/20)

October is almost over, this year is truly flying by!  Here's a look at what we were up to this month.   

On the last Wednesday of the month I link-up with Shay and Sheaffer to answer these questions:


1.  What we're eating this week...

Mike's mom is in town, and we're going to have a much needed date night! Can not wait!

2.  What I'm reminiscing about...
We spent this past weekend at the beach with our friends, celebrating her 40th! I wish I could live at the beach, it is my happy place! Take me back!







3.  What I'm loving...
I love my new Nike's that I got myself for my birthday!

4.  What we've been up to...
Early morning walks to school...

Vincent continued golf lessons with one of his best buds...



We "boo'd" one of our neighbors...

Halloween cuteness...

Mommy and Arianna morning at the local market...

Picking out pumpkins with my pumpkins...




Arianna started something new and is now playing soccer!  She loves it so far...


Supporting one of my best friend's journey towards the school board...

My baby was just as happy sitting on the bench at her first game as she was to be playing...

5.  What I'm dreading...
Right now, besides the second wave of COVID, I'm not dreading too much!

6.  What I'm working on...
I have 6.14 miles left to go in the 35 mile breast cancer challenge.  I know that I will exceed the 35 miles.  Today is our cousin's 2nd chemotherapy treatment for Stage 2 breast cancer, and I would appreciate all of the prayers sent her way today and over the next week as she deals with the side effects.  

We have been lighting up our neighborhood pink in her honor with these cool color-changing lights I was influenced by a friend of mine to get from Amazon.  

7.  What I'm excited about...
Halloween!  It is truly one of my very favorite holidays.  It is going to look a little different this year, thanks 2020, but we are going to make memories as a family either way.  

I am also super excited about our home renovations that are happening very soon.  The first part was getting our new dining room table.  After waiting for a very, very, very long time...I finally got a table that I love! We don't have all of the pieces yet, I will share a before and after once we do...

8.  What I'm watching/reading...
The finale of Big Brother is on tonight! I am rooting for Nicole all the way...

I started reading Untamed, by Glennon Doyle, and I'll be done with it soon!  I love it!

9.  What I'm listening to...
I just finished listening to 28 Summers, by Elin Hilderbrand.  It was a cute story that recaps the yearly meet-up of two in love at a house every Labor Day weekend in Nantucket.  


10.  What I'm wearing...
I am loving two of my Prime Day purchases!



This dress.  This is actually the second time I have purchased this dress.  It is comfortable, flattering and the pockets give it that extra touch!


and this shirt.  It comes in 10 different styles and is very soft and comfortable.  

11.  What I'm doing this weekend...
HALLOWEEN!!!  
Arianna also has a soccer game and Vincent is starting a basketball clinic on Sundays.  

12.  What I'm looking forward to next month...
Thanksgiving with family and remembering everything that we have to be grateful for in our lives.  We are also supposed to go camping at Disney the weekend before.  

13.  What else is new...
We got home from an amazing weekend at the beach.  I didn't want to leave.  Florida gulf coast sunsets are some of my favorite things in life!  I decided to go for a walk around my neighborhood and was rewarded with this sunset. Sometimes the heart wants to wander, but we are often reminded that where we are, is exactly where we are meant to be!
