What's Up Wednesday


- WHAT WE'RE EATING THIS WEEK -

Well, Matt was out of town for the first part of the week so Ava and I have been eating leftover Chicken Nuggets from Sunday night with quinoa and sweet potatoes.  They are so good and she loves them :)

Tonight is Angel Chicken from the crock pot.

And we've also been eating some Halloween candy!

- WHAT I'M REMINISCING ABOUT - 

I have been thinking about how much Ava has grown lately and can't stop looking at these pictures:





- WHAT I'M LOVING -

I am loving the slightly cooler weather and that I am not sweating after bus and parent pick-up line duties after school each day!

- WHAT WE'VE BEEN UP TO - 

We went to Boo At The Zoo last weekend!

Ava has been preparing a lot of picnics for us :)


Matt and I had a date day last Monday!


And on Friday, Ava had a storybook character dress-up day/party!




- WHAT I'M WORKING ON -

My photography - I am taking some pictures for a friend's family in a few weeks and I have been using my camera a lot for practice!

A trip to Indiana in a few weeks to see my family!

- WHAT I'M WATCHING/READING -

I'm watching my usual favorites on Bravo & HGTV.

I'm almost finished reading The Island by Elin Hildebrand.


- WHAT I'M LISTENING TO -

Well, I've been listening to WAY-FM in the car, Britney Spears Radio on Pandora, and even some occasional Christmas music on the computer.  Christmas Lights by Coldplay is my favorite!

Lots of leggings, but no sweaters or boots here in FL just yet :)

Trick-or-Treating with Sophia the First!

Boo At The Zoo

We went to the Naples Zoo on Saturday for some early trick or treating!  Ava has been asking to go see the "amimals" and we had so much fun!




She loved the anteater and kept wanting to go back and see him!









haha - twins :)






We went twice to check in on the giraffes and they weren't ready to eat yet - but we got them on the third try!

Weekend Update

Ava hosted a Halloween picnic for her and Matt a few weekends ago!


Matt found a snake and Ava was a brave girl!



Ava's friend Theresa came over to play last Sunday!


We had lots of cuddle time with Brady this weekend :)


Matt was out of town and picked up a few things from the grocery store for Ava and I before he left.  He got us these pretty flowers to enjoy!


Here are a few pics from his weekend!



Ava joined me at my school's Fall Fun Fest on Friday night!  We worked a nail-painting booth for the evening :)




Saturday night we went to McDonald's, got Ava some new shoes, and then we walked around outside for a bit!


We are excited to cheer on the Colts (and Patriots) tonight!  Big game for us!!  Here are some pics from the last game!
