One.
Christopher made it home late last night! Thank you for all of your prayers and positive thoughts. They barely made it ahead of all the severe weather on Wednesday, and I’m so glad they did because there were 11 tornadoes south of Chicago that night.
Two.
No matter where we travel or live, there is nothing like my mama’s home cooking. It’s been a fun week being spoiled with mama’s cooking!
Three.
It’s also been great to have a pool in the backyard. It helps both with the Texas heat and my pain! We had a pool in Chicago, but it was always busy, so it’s nice to have a pool to myself!
Four.
I’m so excited to meet up with friends now that we’re back in town. Chris and I are having lunch with my former coworkers today, which will be super fun.
Five.
I got Mom hooked on Food Network, and it’s been fun showing her some of my favorite shows. She loved cracking up at all the sabotages on Cutthroat Kitchen.
Linking up with Amanda, Karli, and the High Five for Friday girls.
Hope y'all have a wonderful weekend!
I'm glad Chris made it home safe! I have become addicted to food network this summer. I love Chopped Kids ha.

ReplyDeleteSo glad that Chris made it out of Chicago before all the crazy weather! I'm sure that the heat will take some getting used to, but you can't beat not having to share a pool with a lot of other people!
