5 Friday Faves... On Saturday! ;)

Hey Friends and Family! 

I didn't get to my Friday Faves yesterday because it was a busy day of work, running errands, preparing for friends, and trick-or-treating.  I love Halloween night because of the nostalgia  and overwhelming sense of community it brings.  I love walking the neighborhood, talking to neighbors, and sharing lots of laughs (and a few scares!) I will post about our Halloween next, but I am waiting until Mackaylan and Quin go to their big party tonight because I definitely want to include their epic costumes in the post! 

Until then, let's get to this week's FAVES...

1- On Monday, Lydia's high school volleyball team played in the 2nd round of state playoffs.  While it didn't end the way we wanted it to, it's always a FAVE to watch her play at a sport she loves.  


2- Getting back into blogging has definitely been a FAVE.  I'm still trying to build this community back up and establish a routine, but I love having this outlet and "hobby" for myself... and my family! 


3- Book Character Dress-Up Day with my besties was another FAVE! The three of us make up the literacy team at our school and I couldn't imagine doing what I do without them.  They are so knowledgable, passionate about teaching and learning, and know how to have a good time! They are the BEST! 

4- Mackaylan and Quin offered to hand out candy while I roamed the streets with Ace and his friends. Seeing them have fun with the kids was a FAVE!  Knowing that they chose to hang out at the house and enjoy this holiday with us makes my heart so happy! 


5-  Seeing the Halloween decorations in our neighborhood is the final FAVE for this week!  I wish I would've snapped pics last night of some of the decorations, but trying to keep dibs on 5 preteen boys was all I could do.  But let me tell you... our neighborhood sure knows how to celebrate and decorate! These are just a few pics from our house which I am proud of, but we definitely are very "low-key" compared to the rest. lol 


That's all for this week's FAVES! Now, I am trying to decide if I go ahead and take down the Halloween decor this weekend or enjoy it for just a bit longer.  I guess that will be based on how productive I feel later today.  

I hope you all have a wonderful weekend! Let me know a few of your FAVES from this week!
