Friday Favorites 10.10.2025

Hey loves. Happy Friday. We have off school today and going to do some fall/pumpkin/Halloween fun, hopefully. It has been another busy week, lots of Taylor Swift music playing in the background with random dance parties, because Anna will dance to anything.

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

~ ONE ~

Ella turned 14. She was not so thrilled to sit with her pile of balloons but did it anyways, but won't smile.

Opening a few of her gifts, Austin said something to her that made her half smile but not looking at me.

~ TWO ~

It is Taylor Swift Friday. (Also Mean Girls Day). Ella made her own "The Life of a Showgirl" shirt by using an orange shirt she already owned and green sparkly duct tape. Before she even went to school she had already listened to the album twice on Amazon music. (she got home from her dads at 525am, and didn't leave for the bus until 7am)

She also pulled out her Taylor guitar pick earrings.

I took Anna, Ella, and her friend to see the Taylor Swift thing in the theatre. It was a behind the scenes of her new album and music video. it gave me making the video and making the album MTV vibes.

~ THREE ~

Fun Run fundraiser at my littles school. I was only able to sign up to help Austin's grade so I found a loophole to get to go to both. I volunteered to run the check in desk all day. Then when it was my kids class turn I could pop out and see them. They were very appreciated of this as well since I am organized and helped run check in for other events.

They both loved seeing me.

~ FOUR ~

Not very often is Ella ever out of her bedroom, let alone playing with her sister. I take this for a win and had to document it. They were playing diner.

~ FIVE ~

This is what I get when I ask for a smile to take a picture of Ella with her cake for her family party.

~ SIX ~

Notice behind the fire attached to the house is a TV. Brian wanted a tv outside to watch the Ohio State game. He had bought a bracket months ago and finally bought a tv to put on it. No more dragging a tv out of on of the bedrooms. We will be taking the tv in and out weather pending.

Bad quality photo but I got cuddles while at the fire, until she insisted that I needed to be in the house with her when she went to bed, even though Ella was already in the house.
