Friday Favorites {#181}

Hello and happy Friday!

How was your week? Ours was pretty good, and we had some downtime in the evenings which was very much needed.

As always, I’m linking up with Erika and Andrea for this week’s Friday Favorites.

Here are some favorites from the week:

Hayden had a lot of fun with this friends at a UK basketball/football charity event last week. They bowled with some of the players and got autographs and pictures.

It’s almost middle school basketball season, so Hayden’s on a rec team, and it’s always fun to watch him play basketball.

We enjoy watching him run, but we think it’s important for him to have other interests, and I’m glad he still loves basketball.

The cross country season wrapped up a couple weeks ago, and Travis is having the end of season banquet next week. We got the team and individual pics back, and I can’t believe how great they turned out.

Here he is in 6th and 7th grade. My oh my…no one prepared me for how quickly kids grow up in middle school!

My mom & Gma visited this past weekend, and it was nice to see them. It was a very low key weekend with not much on tap, so we had time to hang out, play a few games, and the kids loved their souvenirs that my mom picked up for them on her recent trip to Ireland.

I love the view from my front porch this time of the year. Unfortunately, many of the leaves have already fallen off. I hope they can hang on a bit longer.

Favorite Clothes:

It’s a simple sweatshirt, but I was at Walmart recently and snagged this hooded sweatshirt in two colors and two sizes. I got my regular size large in the gray, and then I sized up in the blue color, so that I could wear it with leggings. You can’t beat the $9 price tag!

Favorite Food:

Random photo, but I was kind of in a lunch rut, and tried something different for me. I made pita pocket sandwiches for lunch a couple of times this week.

One has rotisserie chicken and shredded mozzarella. After I warmed it in the microwave, I added some BBQ sauce. The other one has Pepperjack cheese and turkey pepperonis. I’ve also made both and put them in the toaster when I’m home. That’s the preferred method, but the microwave melts the cheese and makes for a decent lunch.

This weekend, I’m hoping we can squeeze in our traditional “spooky meal” & pumpkin carving.

Favorite Mom Meme:

This has been true for a long time. lol

Bonus Fave: Flashback Friday

With Halloween next week, I’m always nostalgic for the years when the kids were little. This Batman and Robin duo will always be my favorite.

Weekly Recap:

I shared a little bit of everything this week: memes, holidays, clothes, and musings!

What are your weekend plans! My weekend starts today with a fun day at Keeneland with friends. Also, Hadley has some fun weekend plans, and Hayden has a basketball game. We hope to make it to the UK football game too.

I hope you have a great weekend.
