Fab Friday Faves 5.18.18

Hey and happy Friday everyone!  Not much to report besides that we are currently in some biblical style flood in Southern Maryland. I'm pretty sure I'm not even joking.  Josh went to night shift this week.  Not super ideal but it is what it is.  I've been making myself have some busier days, and some very boring evenings filled with cleaning and organizing.  Fun stuff!   Everyone have a great weekend, if you are on the Eastern Seaboard, stay dry!


On Monday, since Josh was switching to nights and wasn't really in the mood to sleep, we decided to go to the marina in Alexandria to Triple Craft.  I have been wanting to go here for a year since they opened last year.  They have crazy craft milkshakes (and you can make them adult milkshakes it you want) and awesome burgers.  It did not disappoint! If anything it was even better than we were expecting and a great location.  


Tuesday was Jackson's first birthday, so on Sunday we threw him a party with his nan and papa and some of the guy's coworkers.  We had a nice little BBQ and cake and of course presents!
We all know I love getting mail and I got this awesome package from Lindsey and Dave and the kids.    My favorite tea, a Boston Starbucks mug, some spices and some artwork!  Thanks guys! 


Josh and I went to Sweet Frog for some froyo on the weekend.  Its always delicious but they had chocolate covered strawberries for Mother's Day, so good!  


The Sephora birthday gift this year some Bite Beauty lipstick and I was so in love with the sample size, that I used the gift card that Imelda got me for my birthday to buy the full size.  Amuse Bouche- Chai.  I love this shade but there were about 20 that I wanted.

Fab Friday Faves 5.11.18

Good morning everyone, and as usual, long time no see!  I just don't have a lot of fun, bloggable stuff going on lately.  I got back from Florida mid last week, it was a lovely trip and the weather was finally getting more Florida-ish, and the pool and Gulf water were warm enough to swim in!  It seems like forever since the Florida weather was Florida weather.  That being said, look like we could be getting our first hurricane type storm in a couple weeks, and 8 inches of rain this weekend.
Here in Maryland after a painfully long and cold winter too, things seem to be turning around.  We have had a couple sporadic days in the 90s and the rest are 70s, and we had our first (almost) thunderstorm last night.
Josh has been working pretty much 7 days a week, 12-16 hour a day.  hoping that ends soon!  Ive been spending a lot of time with Nicole and Jackson enjoying the weather and Target.
Smudge had a vet appt on Monday, and she is a very healthy 11.5 year old Princess, she just gets to be more of a perfect cat everyday!
Tomorrow I am doing the Maryland bird Count in my area, and its supposed to be 92F (33C) wish me luck.   We have Jackson's first birthday party on Sunday, it seems like he was born yesterday!  He really is the funniest, sweetest little man and changes so much everyday!

Everyone have an awesome weekend, and a very happy Mother's Day to all the moms out there, especially the best one there is, mine!


We had our first almost storm last night!  We didn't really get anything ,but obviously somewhere very near us did.  So it counts.  


Got my nails done late last week.  Decided to keep them a little longer, and I LOVE them! I finally found my guy here that does them exactly how I want them!


Nicole's parents, Garry and Wendy drove down on Wednesday to celebrate Jackson's birthday and Mother's Day.  they were so overly kind to bring me a goody box of Canadian snacks and treats.  So very much appreciated since i may not be able to make it back for July this year!  Thank you so much!


 Kohls had a Mukluk sale on a couple weeks ago and I ordered a couple pairs.  I chose to keep these super cute Pineapple ones and I love them!  They are so cute and SO comfy!


I have gotten about 300 free trail coupons for hello Fresh and never actually tried it, for no good reason.  Our friends Brandon and Michaela moved this week and on their last day we stopped in to say goodbye, and they had one of their meals left that they so kindly gave us.  It was stuffed Poblanos and it was delicious!  The next coupon I get I am definatly going to give it a try for a week just for something fun and different!
