Five on Friday - This weekend only has two days?

Hi, friends! Happy Friday! I'm so thrilled it's Friday, but a little in shock that this weekend only has two days and not three or four like I've been used to lately. I've really come to love my Five on Friday posts though, because it forces me to look back and find the good moments of the week. I'm always in a happy and relaxed mood after posting, so let's get to it!

ONE.



Saturday, we headed over to my in-laws for their neighborhood "Eggstravaganza". It was a fun event. Zoey faced her fears and finally got in a bouncy castle - she had a BLAST. Luke was pretty content for me to wear him too. Doesn't he just look adorable in his 3+ hat that fits his head almost perfectly? 

Later, Chris and the kids evacuated the house and allowed me to have a nice evening with some of my girl friends. I can't wait to do it again!

TWO.



 

Easter Sunday, we played with Easter baskets and had a yummy lunch at Chris's parents' house. It was a really nice, chill day. Side note, I'm really loving the ability to see my in-laws so often. They're the best a girl could possibly have.

Three.



As luck would have it, we did not incur any bad weather days this year and therefore, I got our bad weather make-up day (Easter Monday) off! Zoey and I packed up Luke and dropped him off at daycare so we could have some much needed Mommy & Zoey time. We picked up groceries and then after a quick stop home, headed to see Beauty and the Beast!

Our local movie theater does "Mommy Mondays" where tickets are half-priced and they keep the volume low and the lights up. It also happens to be a dine in theater.



Zoey ordered chicken fingers and a fruit cup and then settled in to watch the 2.5 hour movie with only one trip around the movie theater during a long period between songs. She was entranced and has been singing the songs and reenacting the scenes ever since. I'm incredibly impressed with her attention span.

She even conned me into buying her the Beauty and the Beast Busy Book at Costco so she could use the figurines to reenact the scenes. She loves the end scene where Gaston tries to fight the Beast and LOVES when dad reenacts it for her.

Gosh, I had such a fun day with my sweet first born.



Four.



My weekday mornings may be CRAZY, but no matter how late I'm running, I will always spend a little time enjoying these two and the already sweet bond they have. 



I will also always enjoy my little bit of country scenery on the way to work while it still exists. This is when my morning slows down for just a minute - that minute of calm between being mommy and middle school teacher. 

Five.



I'm obsessed. I rarely wear lipstick because it rubs off and I kiss my babies A LOT so I hate wearing it, only for it to rub off when I kiss them goodbye each morning. This stuff STAYS ON and comes in the best colors. It's also super hydrating and not sticky like a gloss. Is anyone else into this? What's your favorite color?



Looking forward to a low-key weekend with my loves. Have an amazing weekend everyone!

Linking up!



See you next week!
