The weather is warming up in New York and the sun is setting later. I'm sad that we probably won't get another ski day in this season, but I'm looking forward to Spring!

1. Target Haul: Laura and I hit up Target and picked up a few this for Spring Break. The "Shade to Shore" brand has adorable bathing suits and "A New Day" has fun accessories. The pink jellies are by Wild Fable. They remind me of when I was 12 and I couldn't resist picking up a pair. 

2. New York City: Last weekend we ventured into NYC and visited the Museum of Ice Cream in SoHo. We had lunch at Boqueria and walked around and did some shopping. I miss living in the city! I've been stalking the Colorful Natalie shop on Instagram so it was fun to visit their NYC store in person. 

3. Candles: Bath & Body Works just had their annual candle sale. All 3 wick candles were $11.95 so I stocked up! The jars are really pretty and they have so many scents to choose from. 

4. Creamy Tomato Sausage Pasta: This week I made creamy tomato sausage pasta and it was a big hit in our house! Both Laura and Jack went back for seconds. The recipe is Andrea's from Momfessionals and you can find it here. 

5: Jack's First Cologne: Jack had money from his birthday and he REALLY wanted to buy his first cologne. We were conflicted about letting him spend it on something so frivolous (Does an 11 year old need cologne?). In the end, I decided it's his money and that's what birthdays are for! He was so excited and has been using it everyday.

6. Basement Bathroom & Vanity: We're in the process of adding a bathroom and kitchenette to our basement so my mom can move in with us in the fall. The project is really coming along and I love the new sage green vanity from Lowe's.

7. The White Lotus Season 3: Brian and I have been watching the third season of White Lotus and it's my favorite show at the moment. It takes place in Thailand where we spent our honeymoon and the scenery is beautiful. If you're looking for something to watch this weekend I highly recommend.


Have a great weekend!

  1. What great buys from Target! I remember jelly shoes from when I was a kid. It's so cool that they are still a thing.
    Those candles sound amazing and what a bargain!

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...
