Thoughts for Thursday

Happy Thirsty Thursday, Friends!!

We have had the rainiest week, I’m so over it!!  Both kids are in swim lessons everyday this week (again).  Brody just has his ISR refresher coarse this week and Madelyn is in week 3 of her full course.  It’s work getting them there.  I will be happy when it’s done!

I got several compliments on this new top I wore this week and wanted to share with you guys.  I also paired it with my absolute favorite new shorts.   If you are a fan of the boardwalk shorts from J. Crew factory, then you have met your new match!! I love these even more.  So easy to throw on and come in several cute colors this year.  I already own 4. Yikes!

One of our favorite kids stores, Little English, is offering 45% off all of their Spring clothes right now.  We racked up with some cute stuff.  I love the collared shirts for Brody, several pair of shorts, and then some cute dresses and bubbles for Madelyn.  Madelyn is 21 months and wears a size 2T with them.   I also love to use this opportunity to buy 3T for next year.

Our friend here owns a blueberry farm in Alabama and was so kind to bring us a big bag!  The kids have literally devoured them.  The whole bag was gone in one day.


We finally had a little sunshine yesterday, so we strolled the kids to Jaco’s for dinner last night.  They have the best drink called the Grapefruit Basil Smash.  I need to get this recipe for you guys.  My guess is vodka, grapefruit juice, muddled basil and maybe a little St. Germaine.


I have been a little behind on my favorite podcast, Up and Vanished, lately; but I just saw that they came out with their new podcast.  It’s called Sworn and I’m sure Ill be addicted too!

 

 

I honestly have about 8 great posts in my drafts box that I’m dying to write and finish for you guys, but I haven’t had the time to sit down and write them! I’m hoping to finish some up soon.

    We’ve had a lot of rain lately too, so I hear you! Although it is nice never having to water the garden.

    That’s exactly what’s in that drink, Annie. Fresh ruby red grapefruit juice makes all the difference. I have a recipe that uses fresh watermelon instead of the grapefruit and it’s supper yummy too. I’ll shoot you the recipe.
    I love every outfit you post! The kiddos are getting so big, especially Madelyn!
