What's Up Wednesday October 2025

 Hey loves. Happy What's Up Wednesday. How is it already the last Wednesday of the October. Like always I am in denial, this year is flying by. Halloween is two days away with a packed weekend.  

It's that time for What's Up Wednesday with Shay, and Sheaffer. On the last Wednesday of every month we are all invited to share a little bit everything that has been going on for the past month.

On the last week of October here's what's up...



Coffee Chat 10.28.2025

 Hey loves. It's the end of October. I officially have a 14 year old. We are in full Halloween fun and I am excited for a few days on the calendar next month that have nothing scheduled.

  I love taking the time and talking about random things that I would discuss with my girlfriend over coffee or wine or water this morning. A totally random post. But I love reading others randomness too. Grab a coffee, tea, or wine and lets chat. Today Starbucks releases all things pumpkin!!!! I am sure I will grab one later today.

Disney World Vacation 2025 Day 5

  Hey loves. I am recapping our Disney World vacation that we took the end of July into the beginning of August. We spent a wonderful week down in Orlando, Florida at Disney World. This trip was extra special because it was my 40th birthday trip and we went with another family. Be sure to read Day 1 and Day 2 and Day 3, and Day 4 if you missed it. We are onto day 5,  our resort hopping day and more relaxed if you can really say that about a Disney vacation. 

Let's start the recap. The plan is to go day by day, but some days maybe broken into two parts depending on how long they are. We had a busy 8 days with 6 days of parks with park hoping, resort hopping, and more. 

Sunday August 3, 2025 

We got to the park before official opening and headed straight to Fantasyland.

Share Our Lives

 Hey loves. Happy Monday. How was your weekend? We had a 3 day weekend with everyone having off Friday, Brian and I also took off to take the kids to a pumpkin patch for some fall fun and we went camping in my parents driveway. The kids have been begging to go camping since we bought a camper a few weeks ago. My parents suggested we just camp in their driveway so we did and had a good time.

October Monthly Goals

 Hey loves. To say September was a hot mess would be an understatement. I have been on a huge struggle bus of getting into a new routine and to do anything besides work and my kids activities. My house and to do list has taken the hit of not getting done. Instead of recapping my previous goals like I normally do, which would be a lot of NO's, I am going to do a brief September Wins. Even though it is already the middle of October I made this list at the end of September for my October Goals. 



Let's Look- Things I"ve Said No To

Hey loves. Happy Monday. Its a new week with so much possibility. We have a crazy week with something on the calendar everyday (besides work and school) Maybe in January things will slow down, just kidding that's when basketball is in full swing. 

Have you bought anything good off Amazon Lately? It's time to look back at what I bought in September from Amazon. September was suppose to be a no spend month or low spend, I hate to say that didn't happen.

 I am linking up with Andrea over at Living on Cloud 9. Let's see what I bought. 


Meal Planning Monday Week 212

 Hey loves. How was your weekend? We had a fun weekend with seeing Taylor Swift in the theatre, celebrating Ella turning 14 (still in denial), and some Halloween crafting. Last week was busy. I did my grocery shopping on Wednesday because I volunteered at the school all day Friday. I will probably get back into using Instacart more in the next few weeks. Let's jump into what I have on the menu for next week. I am also taking a look back at last week of what was on the menu and what we really ate. 


Friday Favorites 10.3.2025

  Hey loves. It's Friday. It has been a crazy week and how and the heck do I have a 14 year old already? Will I ever not be in denial. We have another busy weekend ahead with all things Taylor Swift (we go to the theatre tonight), soccer, Ella's family birthday dinner, Ohio State game, Browns game, and a neighbors Halloween craft fun with the kids. Next week is just as crazy. 



Time for some Friday Favorites with these lovely ladies: Erika, and Andrea.

Happy 14th Birthday Ella

 Hey friends. Today's a big day in our house. Aubriella turns 14. Still in denial that she isn't 4. She has grown up so fast into a beautiful young lady. 

Currently October 2025

Hey loves. October is officially here. I pray October is a better month then September. It went by fast but had lots of hiccups along the way. I am ready for a new month, a fresh start, and fall weather, I am over having the air conditioning on and temps in the upper 70s. 

I am linking up with Jenn over at Overflowing with Thankfulness on the first Wednesday of every month for Currently.
