I finally put some of those frozen bananas to use in my banana bread! 😆 Who else has a freezer full of brown bananas? Can’t just be me.

Honestly I can’t believe a band tee didn’t mak Honestly I can’t believe a band tee didn’t make it into this mix. 🎶🤘🏻 But there’s a @drpepper t-shirt so that’s even better! I’ve been having so much fun lately remixing things I’ve had for years along with a few new pieces! 

Thrifting and finding a super good clearance deal = my favorite! I’m not really sure what my style is these days.. but I’m having fun playing around with it and feeling a little more like ME in what I’m wearing. Warped Tour heart, coffee shop soul vibes? ✨😆

I think sometime between becoming a mom, working, I think sometime between becoming a mom, working, keeping up with a house, and trying to take care of everyone else… I forgot to ask myself what I actually like.

So lately I’ve been paying attention.

The clothes I want to wear.

The hobbies I want to try.

The spaces I want to create.

The things that make me feel like myself.

Maybe this is exactly what your late 30s are for. Not becoming someone new.. but remembering who you are.✨

My littlest boys are 4️⃣!! Their only birthday My littlest boys are 4️⃣!! Their only birthday demand was that we get them a Sonic the hedgehog cake! 😆 

I still just sit and stare at them in disbelief sometimes.. my twin babies.. my last babies.. and somehow they’ve been here for 4 whole years. If you’re a twin mom, you know that the time passes different. The early stages are a blur in a way I don’t even know how to explain. It makes it all a bit more bittersweet.

I love you Bennett & Everett! 💙💙

We swam, we fished, we played lots of card games, We swam, we fished, we played lots of card games, and we ate an obscene amount of Publix cuban sandwiches and fried chicken. 🏝️🐠🎣🐚🌊 Not pictured: the giant angry birds that Nate went to war with everytime he stepped out front.

Universal was a blast. I hadn’t been since I was Universal was a blast. I hadn’t been since I was a teenager and I only vaguely remembered a ride or two! There was so much to do for the littlest brothers and aside from being HOT, it was perfect. 

Everett was big mad at us for taking him on the SpiderMan ride and did not trust our judgement the rest of the time. 🤣 He LOVED the 1 Fish 2 Fish ride and wanted to ride that all day. 

Bennett on the other hand was all about the thrills and the Trollercoaster was his favorite. He said it was “Torrifying” but he made us all ride it with him multiple times.

I rode Velocicoaster with Nate, Landon, and Maile. And while I would do it again - for a moment I did think I might die. I only did that once. 🤣 Nate and Landon rode it multiple times. Hagrid’s was more my speed and Cohen agrees with me! 

I am a Disney girl at heart! But Disney doesn’t have a *real life* baby dinosaur that you can pet sooo there’s some competition. 😆

Longest Day Ever

Today is over. Today is FINALLY OVER. I posted about chaos yesterday, right? But oh no. Today blew that out of the water. But on the upside, I’m some weirdo shade of blonde again. It’s definitely not wonderful but it’s light years ahead of what I did to it. And I certainly paid for it.. to be.. plated in real gold. I can’t even tell you how much I paid for it- it hurts that much. I didn’t even get it colored. Sigh. Lesson learned.

But the actual day started off with the realization that Nate took both of our keys to work. And, I can’t drive my car without keys. So, after a lot of freaking out (at about 9:15AM when I needed to be walking out the door) I came to the realization that there was no one who could come get me and I was going to have to call in. I left a crazy ranting message on the call-in line and they ended up sending Brittany (bless her heart) to come get me at 11AM. So I went in and managed to do my work faster than ever in order to get off in time for my hair appointment.. which Nate’s Mom took me to because I could not drive myself. Praise God.

This is the watered down, much less stressful sounding version of today. The three hours of color removal at the hair salon and all of the “wait and see” (after the first try was unsuccessful and it looked AWFUL) was enough to wipe me out on it’s own. The fact that I did this to myself and I could’ve used that money for literally… anything else.. was enough to kill me. Hah. And then all of the high blood pressure over the second day in a row of not being able to get to work and THEN thinking I may miss my appointment and my only chance before the weekend to fix my hair! Just, AHH.

Tomorrow night we are going to PF Changs for dinner and seeing a movie. I can’t wait to forget this whooooole week and last weekend ever really happened. 😀
