    This week is extra special because my cousin's twin daughters from Ireland are here staying with us. We've been looking forward to their visit for months! We're having so much fun showing them around New York. They are big Harry Potter fans so on Sunday we took them to the city to see Harry Potter and the Cursed Child on Broadway. It was fantastic! 
WHAT WE'RE EATING THIS WEEK...
    Laura LOVES Ramen, so on our city adventure day we went to Ichiran. The line is usually around the corner but we got there before a little before they opened and didn't have to wait. Instead of tables, they have these individual dining booths. It was outstanding! 
WHAT I'M READING....
    I'm currently reading the Summer Pact by Emily Giffin. It's about four friends who meet in college, share a traumatic experience, and vow to always be there for each other. Fast forward ten years later they are all at a crossroads in their lives and come back together. It's a quick, easy read and I'm enjoying it. 
WHAT I'M WATCHING...
    I'm probably the only person who is isn't watching the Olympics. I'm not binging any shows at the moment. This week I watched A Family Affair with Nicole Kidman and Zac Efron. It reminded me of The Idea of You....same premise with an older woman and her relationship with a younger man and the impact it has on her daughter. It was cute. 
WHAT I'M DREADING....
    Back to School. For all my teacher friends out there, you know what I mean! I'm trying not to think about it and enjoy the next couple of weeks. I'm extra anxious about this fall because Jack is playing hockey AND football for the first time and Laura is playing travel soccer and it is going to be a LOT! 
WHAT I'M EXCITED ABOUT....
    I have VIP meet and greet tickets to see the New Kids on the Block next weekend and I CANNOT wait. I pulled my NKOTB gear out of the closet and I am ready!
Thanks for reading!

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...
