Friday Favorites {#295}

Hello and happy Friday!

What a week! We had all kinds of weather from rain to high winds to ice to snow! Throw St. Patrick’s Day in there with school and sports, and it was just a full week!

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

Here are some favorites from the week:

Last weekend, Hadley had a volleyball tournament, but thankfully it was here in town. Bonus – her team didn’t play until the afternoon wave on Saturday, so we were able to ease into our weekend. The team went 3-0 which meant they played in the gold bracket on Sunday. They ended up coming in 4th overall, so it was a great weekend of volleyball…and even better because we didn’t have to travel!

Saturday night, Travis and I went to the baseball fundraiser. It’s a little weird being back in this baseball world, but it was nice reconnecting with friends and many of my school friends were at the event as well.

Sunday morning started early with volleyball but also with me putting our corned beef meal in the slow cooker!

After Hadley’s games on Sunday, I had a couple of hours at home, so I made two loaves of the Irish soda bread while the cabbage cooked.

My brother and his family came over for dinner, so it was a nice way to end the weekend.

Tuesday started off in an odd way. I actually hit snooze a few times, and by the time I got my coffee and got situated on the couch, I saw a few texts from friends saying how bad the roads were. I noticed that my street looked icy, and then around that time, we received a text that we were going to have a two hour delay. Then, it started to snow heavily for about an hour, so we ended up having an online learning day. The initial two hour delay call was so late that many elementary teachers and some students were already at school. Even a few high school teachers were at school, and they had texted to say how slick it was outside. Anyway, what a random start to St. Patrick’s Day, but I wasn’t mad about being at home.

This is the breakfast I provided my kids on their Tuesday, St. Patrick’s Day, NTI day:

I had placed a pick up order on Monday, and I wasn’t sure what to make for dinner this week. Well, once I saw that colder temps for Tuesday, I decided to make potato soup, and then I made another loaf of the Irish soda bread. It was the perfect St. Patrick’s Day dinner given how cold it was outside!

I made brownies, and Hadley iced them and decorated them with rainbow sprinkles. This was a nice dessert to have for the week.

Weekly Recap:

I had a couple of posts this week:

I hope you have a great weekend. For once, we don’t have much on the books, so I’m guessing we’ll watch a lot of basketball this weekend!
