Yay! I’m so excited the football season officially starts tonight, and I can’t wait!

Dylan can’t wait either! He had on his Green Bay Packers beanie at breakfast today.

Go Pack Go!

More Cooking, Less Shopping

This month I’ve started the pledge that over the next three months I will shop less and cook more. So far it is going well, but it’s still pretty early in the project.

I’ve already noticed that I am spending way less time here.

I’ve also made a few new recipes,

021

and enjoyed some family favorite meals too.

I love to cook, but to be honest, there are way too many of these…

Three times a day, the kitchen looks like this,

and no, I don’t have a dishwasher,

and yes, I am so tired of washing dishes.

A Little Destruction

Last weekend we decided to start working on the downstairs bathroom/utility room, we had a little bit of wallpaper to take down. I got the steamer ready to go, and that’s when James said let’s take out the vinyl flooring and tile too.

I told him I was game as long as we could tear out the kitchen flooring too.

We did and it was awesome!

A little bit of destruction was a blast! I have hated that awful flooring ever since we bought our house, and I am so happy to have it out of the house.

Favorite August Photos

I was a little better about taking photos in August. I think I drove the kiddos a little bit crazy with my snap happy photo taking. Here are a few of my favorites though.

Thade loves to draw, if he could do anything constantly, it would be drawing.

We moved his art station to a larger desk, so he has more room to draw.
