Hello and happy Friday!
How was your week? Ours was good, but it sure felt long! Also, where are the springlike temps? We’ve been lucky to hit 60 degrees this week!
As always, I’m linking up with Andrea for this week’s Friday Favorites.
Here are some favorites from the week…
Teacher Appreciation Week is a fave for sure. Every day this week, we’ve received some kind of treat at school…from bagels to coffee to cookies and more.
On Wednesday, I hit the jackpot! So many of my students gave me gifts and notes.
I truly felt the love. And, I don’t need gifts, but of course, that’s so thoughtful of students to think of me and purchase a few things. I really appreciated the notes too. One of the notes was written with the help of Gemini (AI) which actually did make me LOL.
Spring time me thanked fall me because I pulled out this lavender vanilla Antique Candle Co candle to burn. I’d purchased it on sale last fall. I love the spring time scent.
Derby was extra exciting! Golden Tempo, trained by a female trainer, won which was a first for the Derby. It was a thrilling race with Golden Tempo coming from waayyy behind to win!
The Major was in town last weekend. He was able to see Hayden pitch at his game, and he also saw two of my nephew’s games. Of course, we had to take the traditional porch pic…
On Sunday, Hadley baked a cake to celebrate the Major’s birthday a bit early. He doesn’t like the jinx birthdays before they happen (I’m the same way!), so we didn’t sing happy birthday. haha
Her Advanced Foods class is really paying off for all of us.
I went to one of my nephew’s games, and I couldn’t resist a couple of scoops of my favorite ice cream…mint chocolate chip!
Hayden was the starting pitcher in his game the other night! So far this season, he’s been a relief pitcher, so this was a first.
He pitched three innings, and the score was 3-3 at the end of the third. His team ended up winning, so that made the outing extra special.
I shared my May book trackers on Instagram last weekend. As always, I save them in a highlight. Feel free to use them to share what you’re reading. Tag me, and I’ll repost. I always love seeing what others are reading. I need to get my reading act together!
Favorite Mom Meme:
Truly, I would be less crazy if my kids would just do what they need to do when they need to do it!
Bonus Fave: Flashback Friday:
How about this gem from 2010! My first Mother’s Day. Woah…what a memory!
Weekly Recap:
This week I had a couple of posts:
Share Our Lives:
It’s hard to believe, but Monday is the second Monday of the month. I’ll be co-hosting the Share Our Lives link up, and this month’s topic is…go to lunches on the go.
Mother’s Day:
I share this every year, but I truly do mean it…
I hope you have a lovely spring weekend! We have baseball and volleyball on tap! I wouldn’t have it any other way. These years are flying by!

So glad you were spoiled this week- you deserve it! That throwback pic kills me- so so precious. I am sure it is so exciting during Derby week you are- would love to experience that some day!

You have had a full week! Derby and the Major! Yay for Hadley’s cake baking. I just saved a copycat Nothing Bundt cake. I love a Bundt shape and have a pan and would like to try the fancy NBC frosting so I might bake it for myself!
I wish I could find a pic of my first Mother’s Day but probably none were taken!
I hope you have a relaxing day planned.
