Hey friends! I thought I would start blogging this link up this year because it’s always a fun one for me to read on other blogs. So I’m linking up with Shay and Sheaffer and sharing whats been up with us.

1: WHAT WE’RE EATING THIS WEEK:

Anything that’s warm! It is crazy cold in the Midwest today. Tacos, Pork Chops, and a Casserole are all on this weeks dinner menu.

2. WHAT I’M REMINISCING ABOUT: The Holidays! There’s just something so boring to me about January. Anyone else? The Christmas decor is down, it’s always cold and cloudy.

3: WHAT I’M LOVING: The Bachelor! I’m very hit and miss with the seasons I watch of it, but this one has me interested.

4: WHAT WE’VE BEEN UP TO: Not much. See above about January;) We have had lots of cozy nights in.

5: WHAT I’M DREADING: I don’t think anything at the moment?

6: WHAT I’M WORKING ON: Something fun and festive for the girls and a couple of their friends.

7: WHAT I’M EXCITED ABOUT: Ellies grades! She is making some of the best grades she’s ever made and we are so excited to see her thriving with those. The best part is that she’s excited about it.

8: WHAT I’M WATCHING/READING: Currently watching The Bachelor and waiting for some of the housewives to come back on. Reading The Cupcake Diaries along with Ellie. She was getting unmotivated to read so we have our own little book club going;)

9: WHAT I’M LISTENING TO: Burn The Ships from For King & Country

10: WHAT I’M WEARING: This sweatshirt on repeat. It is a thinner material and super soft.

11: WHAT I’M DOING THIS WEEKEND: Shopping for a fun party.

12: WHAT I’M LOOKING FORWARD TO NEXT MONTH: Valentines Day!

13: WHAT ELSE IS NEW: Hmm. I don’t think anything.

BONUS QUESTION: WHAT’S YOUR FAVORITE FAMILY VALENTINE’S DAY TRADITION? 

I would say we all agree on this one and it’s when Brandon and I decorate their bedroom doors with the things we love about them. We’ve been doing this since Ellie could read probably and it’s always a good reminder of their positive traits. You can read more about how we do Valentines Day here.

That’s What’s up with us. I’ll be back on Friday. Stay warm friends!!
