High Five for FRIDAY

This is one sleepy momma! Don't how or why but the week has felt long. Must be the withdrawals from having enjoyed 4 day weekends and holiday breaks this past month. Anyone else feeling this way??
Temps, here in VA, are super warm for this time of year and we're making sure to enjoy it. We have plans to have no plans at all and spend the weekend outdoors...let the kids run free, take on the hills, climb a tree.

Linking with Lauren for a very welcomed "Friday" link up....

1// can I just say some days getting to the gym is a workout in itself? Rallying up these two boys should be easier than it is. And once we get to the gym....we're that family that isn't forgotten. Landon catches a fire up his a$$ and takes off running and screaming with joy that he's there until he realizes he's headed for daycare then the screams are more of the hell-no kind. Within seconds he's over it and happily engaged with other children but during that explosion of will you've got strangers going "oh, he's so precious, look at those curls" to "oh, ehhh, don't think you're getting in a workout today, good luck". Whatever people...we go through it every time.

2// took the boys to the most obnoxious place in the world....Chuck E. Cheese. Needless to say, they had a blast and really, I enjoyed myself too...after 5 beers....kidding, only kidding.

3// came home from work and look who was cooking dinner! WHAT?!! how awesome. I immediately grabbed a seat at the patio table and took in the scenery.

4// just one of those nights when all is quiet and there's nothing to be done. ahhh, perfect. Hubs and I sat back together and watched Terrible Pitch. And, this afternoon we're sneaking away to see Zero Dark Thirty while the boys are still in school...  Any of you seen either of these movies?

5// My MIL gave me this necklace for Christmas. She shares my love for the ocean and endless seashell hunts. I've worn this piece A LOT since Christmas. I'm always ready for summer.


P.S. Yesturday's #whatsonyoursalad post was lots of fun, it's running through the weekend if you'd like to add your link! Thank you to all that linked up and commented...it made my day and inspired some healthy bites for the coming week. I'm soooo excited to see what next week will bring!!!


Take a moment to reflect on the big and small things that make your week more beautiful.

  13. Looks like a fun week, Kristine!! I've said it before--your sons as adorable!! Your comment about the gym daycare cracked me up! My mom used to be one of the ladies who worked in the gym daycare and she always took me with her and I'd scream and fight until I got there, saw all my friends and all of the toys (she worked there three days a week so you'd think I'd remember it was fun after awhile..).

  15. I used to work at a gym daycare and I knew the criers before they came in ;) Our parents had to call and tell us we had kids coming, so I would put on soothing music and/or movies before they brought the kids in. I actually got them to stop crying unlike the other judgy daycare workers. Hence why I got the Christmas presents and they got diddly. You just gotta know how to handle them, and it's not your fault so don't blame yourself!
