1. HALLOWEEN: 

We had another successful Halloween in West Somers Park! Every year our neighborhood has a Halloween parade that ends on our cul-de-sac. We started a few years ago by opening our house for bathrooms and beverages, and now it's become a full on annual party,.

The Ladies
Jack and his crew
Taylor Swift & Travis Kelce in the house!

Check out this awesome caprese salade my friend made:

2. Night at the Races: 

Last weekend Brian and I went to a Derby-themed charity event. It was a fun kid-free night out for a good cause. 

3. NKOTB

Monday on Good Morning America the New Kids on the Block announced their Magic Summer 2024 Tour! I'm a member of Block Nation so I had a presale code and snagged 4 VIP tickets to their August show at Jones Beach. I am SO excited! I've seen them in concert at least 10 times now and it never gets old. 

4. Mixtiles

I ordered this peel and stick wall decal from Mixtiles for our basement family room. It was so easy to make and to apply. It's easy to remove too! It would also be fun for a child's bedroom or a dorm room.

5. Jessie Ruben Art

I ordered this piece of art for above the couch in the same basement family room. I had my eye on it for awhile and finally pulled the trigger. I love it! 1It's by Jessie Ruben, a local artist based out of Chappaqua in Westchester County, NY. Her paintings are so colorful and vibrant. This print is from the Smile Collection. I also really like the Sports Collection. 


6. Aviator Nation Sale

This week Aviator Nation had a major sale. I don't own anything from Aviator Nation, so I took advantage of the sale to give it a try. I ordered the 3 pieces below. They haven't arrived yet, so I'm not sure yet if I'll love them. If not, I'll return. Stay tuned!



That's all of this edition of Friday Favorites! Have a great weekend. I'll be spending mine at the soccer field and ice rink, and perhaps finally getting to see the Taylor Swift movie.
Thanks for reading!

    It does sound like a good Halloween. What great costumes!
    Oh wow! I didn't realise NKOTB were still on the go. I used to love them.

    Yes! They reunited around 2008 and have been touring here and there ever since! Their concerts are so nostalgic - I feel like I'm in 7th grade again! lol

Happy Friday! The summer is coming crashing to an end and I'm not happy about it. But I am excited for the new school year. We're in Hampton Bays for one last weekend and I'm really trying to relax and enjoy every minute of it. We have friends coming out tomorrow for one last hurrah! Here are some of my favorites lately... 1. New Wall Gallery : Earlier in the summer we did a family photo shoot on the beach. One of my summer projects was to switch out the canvases in our hallway, which had photos from 8 years ago! The kids were babies in them....it was time! I moved the canvases to Brian's office. I went with something a little more modern and ordered these acrylic frames from Pottery Barn.   2. New Balance Sneakers: I just got these 327 sneakers from New Balance. I saw a woman on the train wearing them and had to have them. I didn't realize how popular they are right now until after I purchased them. My sister has several pairs and lovs them. She wears them to commu...

Friday, November 8, 2024 1. Joe McIntrye in Drag the Musical: On Wednesday I met some friends in NYC to see Joe McIntyre in Drag the Musical. I'm a huge NKOTB fan so I couldn't miss the opportunity to see my favorite New Kid on Broadway. We had bar stool seats right on the stage! Besides gushing over being so close to Joey, we really enjoyed the show. It was funny and entertaining. Afterwards we saw Joey leaving the theater and he was super nice and happy to take photos with us.  2. Old Navy Sequin Skirts: I wore this Old Navy black sequin skirt to the theater; along with my NKOTB BlockCon tee shirt. The skirt was really comfortable and not itchy at all. I also bought the long sequin skirt in the silver color. I haven't purchased the dress yet because I can't decide on a color but it's in my cart. These pieces are affordable and perfect for when you want a little sparkle.  Old Navy Short Sequin Skirt Old Navy Long Sequin Skirt Sequin Dress 3. Target Bow Heels : I ...

July 19, 2024 We're wrapping up on second week of camp and summer is flying by....I'm trying to enjoy it instead of thinking about summer being over soon. On Wednesday my cousin Gerard and I took the train into the city to see the Irish band the Saw Doctors perform at Central Park Summer Stage. We had about a 25 block walk from Grand Central to Central Park and we popped into bars as we made our way uptown. We even made an impromptu visit to my sister at her office building. It was so much fun! The concert was great but the band had to stop after an hour because of lightning and thunder. Just as we were walking out of the park the skies opened and we got SOAKED! The train ride home in soggy wet clothes was NOT a favorite.  I have a long list of small house projects to accomplish this summer. This week I did a deep cleaning of Jack's room. One down, several more to go!  HeyNuts High Waisted Leggings:  I didn't do much shopping on Prime Day, but I did score these Hey Nuts...
