Monday Lovin’

Hey, friends!

It’s been a while since I shared the Monday Love, so I thought I’d check in with some updates on the blog. This summer has been filled to the brim with all the good stuff, and we’re getting ready to cap it off with a family trip to Hilton Head with Chris’s parents next week! I’ll be out of the office and soaking up the rays….ah I can’t WAIT! :)

As always, some favorite moments / lessons learned from the past few weeks:

  • Last week, my cousin Grace came to visit all the way from DC. It was the longest we’d spent together in years, and we had the best time!!! On Friday, the two of us and our cousin Maggie got dinner & drinks at The Garden Table on Mass Ave, and then we made the trek up to Warren Dunes for a Saturday beach day!! The rest of the week was a bit more laid back (minus a fun morning zoo trip and a visit to the farm, of course!), and it was so great just catching up with each other and enjoying summer. I’m so thankful for a family that is full of honest-to-goodness friends — what an amazing gift!!
  • This past weekend, my sister taught me all her #thrifting ways, and we hit up some local Goodwills for some AMAZING deals! Let’s just say I can’t wait for sweater weather to be here…give me all the long flowy things!! I don’t hang out enough with *just* my sister — normally our siblings or Ryan are in tow — but it was so much fun shopping & Steak-n-Shake eating just the two of us!!
  • Last week’s summer mini sessions were a total blast! I loved catching up with past #samireneefamilies and meeting some new ones, too.
  • This summer has also taught me how incredibly awesome it is to have diaper bag that’s also a backpack. Seriously people…how did moms survive before these things were around?!?! Who has time for hand straps?! GIVE ME ALL THE BACKPACKS!!!
  • Also, Aldi’s organic berry fruit snacks taste exactly like the Annie’s fruit snacks, but they’re literally 1/4th of the price. Best news ever!!!
  • Summer Movie favorites: LionWonder Woman, and Moana. That last one is Ry’s current obsession, and I can’t say I’m upset. ;)

That’s about it, friends! Enjoy one of the last summer Mondays!!

Love love love,

Sami
