Friday Favorites | Back to School Edition

Happy Friday! We survived the first 3 days of school! Yippee!!! It's so hard for me to think this is Ian's LAST year of middle school and Ella's LAST year of Elementary School. I swear Ian was just in Pre-K last year! Where does the time go??

I'm sharing a few of our FAVORITES from this week...It's going to be short and sweet this week.

Tuesday, I took my FAVORITE girl to lunch and to get a "back to school" manicure and pedicure. But not before we stopped to have lunch at her FAVORITE place. Chick-Fil-A! 

I was sporting a new pair of my FAVORITE earrings from ADV Designs. I first heard about this shop from Whitney. This is the second time I have ordered from this shop and I am in love. 

Just look at all my goodies! The earrings are so lightweight. I forget that I even have them on. Make sure to check out her shop because everything is 40% off. 

Wednesday, the kids started back to school. I can't believe our summer is OVER. 

First Day of 8th Grade. 

Off he goes...next year I will be dropping off a HIGH SCHOOLER. Say what???

After dropping off Ian, I got back home to get Ella ready for her first day of 5th grade. 

She wanted to show support for one of her FAVORITE books. 😉

The last time I will walk one of my babies into school on their first day of school. I'm not going to lie...I teared up when I got to the car. 

The best 5th-grade teacher there ever was...

My FAVORITE carpool buddy and I back in action!! I tried to get Duke to ride with us but he looked at me like I was STUPID. 

What have you been up to this week?? The rest of this week I have been trying to find my "groove" again with working, working out, housework, blogging, etc. It has been rough but I'm hoping next week will be better! 

Cheers 🍷to the weekend friends!! 

Linking up with Andrea, Narci, and Erika
