Front Porch Hangs

We spent the weekend mostly outside, and I felt particularly nostalgic for how we used to always hang out on the front porch when I was growing up.

Happy Friday my loves!
How was your week? We officially made it through the first week of summer school for our boys, and it felt so good to be back on some sort of routine. I will be honest, I actually love the school year. I love waking up every day at the same time, dropping the kids off at school, getting some work accomplished, hitting the gym, making dinner, and doing it all over again. Routines help me feel like things are in order, or somewhat in order at least.
We just got back from the farm and are all pooped. The kids have been extra grouchy with each other lately, and I feel like I remember this happening last year at the beginning of summer, too. There’s always an adjustment period that we have to get through before settling in to summer. We’ll get there.
Have a lovely weekend!!!! xoxo

Happy Friday night, lovers!!
What are you up to this weekend? We spent the week staying around the house and the farm. Ever since we got back from our trip, I’ve not really wanted to go anywhere or do anything but get our house in order and spend as much time with the kids as possible.
And guess what?
That’s exactly what we’ve done. We’ve always been homebodies and I fear it’s only getting worse with age. If I didn’t absolutely have to, I don’t think I would leave the house for days at a time. But alas, life goes on.
Today was the hottest of the year so far, or at least it felt like it. We’re getting a little taste of Tennessee summers, which, despite having lived here my entire life, still takes me by surprise every year with just hot damn hot it gets. I told PJ today we need to spend the majority of the summer at a pool or the beach. Either one will do.
Tonight for dinner I made this pasta and this salad and both were absolutely delicious. I loved them so much that I may have eaten a little too much and now I feel full, which I hate. Content and happy, but full.
Also, we had three or four extremely ripe bananas, so I made banana bread for dessert which should be ready in about 20 minutes, which means I’m off for the weekend. Have a good one, y’all!! xoxo
