WHAT'S UP WEDNESDAY (04/24/19)

Posts like these are often my favorite. Life flies by quick, friends, and I want to remember these days forever.
 
 
 
So guys, in case you are wondering about our week, here ya go:
 
 1: WHAT WE’RE EATING THIS WEEK:
 
Do you ever feel like you're in a slump? Eating the same ole thing every week. I get like that. I traded in some of my weekly recipes for some easy ones since we are living that #ballparklife right now.
We have a kid in softball and one in baseball right now so most of our life  days and nights are being spent at the ballpark. We also do travel softball too.
 
 
Monday:
This was our first night FREE in a while! Josh wanted some good home cooked food so I made steak fingers, mashed potatoes, fried okra, and rolls. #sosososogood
I NEVER fry stuff so this was a treat! Let me add too that all four kids had dentist appointments at 5pm after work and I didn't even have to beg Josh to take them! (He had no clue what he was getting himself into, ha!)
 
And after not getting home till about 8 I'm sure he'll never volunteer to do that again.
 
 
Tuesday:
We had a softball game and then Raigen picked up with another team, so we had two games. Luckily I had something super easy planned for dinner.
We had bean and cheese burritos covered in queso! We also had leftover Cowboy Caviar dip and tortilla chips to serve along side too.
 
Wednesday:
We have  church and softball practice for our travel team so we usually eat out, but we are getting so tired of eating out so I'm making chicken sliders in the crockpot! I will season my chicken and let it cook all day. Right before I serve it, I will shred it, add bbq sauce, and serve it on a bun with pickles and onion! Add a side of fancy-smancy potato chips (some other sides we like are potato salad and coleslaw!) and its a meal!
 
Thursday:
Surprise! We have softball!
We'll be having my easy tortellini soup! My kids love this. And bonus- it cooks up SO fast! I'll serve it with a salad and garlic bread. I probably omit the hamburger meat (to cut the time) and just toss in some black olives and  pepperonis that I crisped in the oven! Yum!
 
Friday:
 I don't cook so we are eating out!
 
 
2. WHAT I’M REMINISCING ABOUT:
 
 
Look at this cute Easter baby! We are rolling up on his FOURTH birthday ... how is that even possible! :(

 
 
And of course, all my sweets a couple of Easters ago:

 
 











 
 
I reminisce about it ALL! Ya'll, my babies are growing up too fast!
 
 
 
 
  3: WHAT I’M LOVING:
 
I have all the heart eyes for this set a sweet friend surprised me with.
 
 
These cute personalized monogram necklaces I'm selling:
 
 
This verse is a favorite in our house lately:



Faux Barn doors that only cost $7!




This coffee cup a sweet friend got me for my birthday! I LOVE me some 90's music!
 
 
 
And of course I am loving Livingston Crew 10U softball! We went home champs in our last tournament! Let's do it again this weekend too, girls!
 

 
Annnnd the CUTEST ballpark brothers!
