What I Cooked Wednesday – Yummy Peach Treats

We’ve had sooo many peaches around the house from our Peach Truck pick up a couple weeks ago! Some of the peaches were starting to take a turn for the worst, so I decided to make some yummy peach desserts. I LOVE apple crisp, so the first recipe is a spin on my apple crisp recipe I love this time subbing out apples with PEACHES!

The second yummy peach dessert – Baked Peaches with Whipped Cream – was made by a family friend and I just HAD to make them! She was kind enough to send me the recipe and WOW are these good! Shout out to Nicole – thank you for sharing!

A Day in the Life – August

Happy Tuesday! Today I am sharing a very BASIC day in the life post. I LOOOOOVEEEE reading these posts on other blogs! We got off to a really late start with our day all because of THIS POST! Did you see it?! I’m hoping you did because it took a super long time, but I feel it is such a great checklist of baby registry essentials!

Anyway, without further ado – here was our Monday! Quick note: don’t let this fool you – our days are always filled with ups and downs. Kids get upset, I lose my patience – these days can be a lot but at the end of the day, I try to remind myself they are short lived. This day in particular we were really “far” behind a normal schedule so that didn’t help much!

Feeding a Pool Party: My Go-To Aldi Finds

3 Comments

The weather from this past week has forced us into the pool and I’m not complaining about it! We had a fun little pool party this weekend and I was able to put together some yummy “snack-uterie” boards with some staple Aldi items we like to keep on hand. I told myself at the beginning of summer I wanted to make sure we have our pantry and fridge stocked with staple items we could easily bring out for guests!

I’ve fallen in love with Aldi. They have a wide variety of quality and tasty foods and I love trying so many new things! Their prices are incredible and I almost guarantee you’ll never return to overspending on your groceries ever again!

Here are some staple Aldi items we love to have on hand ALWAYS (especially during the summer months)!

Weekend Top 4 – July 4th Weekend!

What a weekend! We prepared most of the week (even last week) for my husband’s 30th birthday party and we are SO SO pleased with the outcome of the party! He had a blast and so did our friends and family – it was such a great evening!

The following day we had two other parties to attend so to say we were exhausted come Sunday was an understatement. We couldn’t stop saying how much fun we had this weekend and are so blessed with amazing family and friends!

Life Lately: What’s Going On!

Oh my goodness, I seriously cannot believe I’ve been gone for a week on here. Honestly, that was not planned and I have no clue how this happened, but I figured I would play catch up on here and share what we’ve been up to lately!

Last week my husband turned 30! We enjoyed some pizza (his favorite) and sherbet to celebrate – along with a HUGE candle!

Cannot wait for the BIG celebration this upcoming weekend!

We’ve been spending a lot of time out in the yard working on some projects we had on our to do list for this summer. Each year we have an idea of certain projects/to-do’s we want to take on and we definitely hit the ground running this past week/weekend!
