Project Life, 2013 :: Week 21

Hola! I am feeling so much more rested after the nice, long weekend! Ready to finish the school year strong and leap into summer.


Week 21. Residual bake sale picture from last week (emailed to me by a mom...too cute to leave out!) and weekend fun. I was pretty pumped on Friday afternoon when I realized that my next week's lesson plans were submitted, parent email sent out, and grading/online updating was completely up to date. I was able to relax with The Real Housewives of NJ marathon on Saturday and a book on Sunday and not feel guilty at all!

And, in case you're wondering, here's what weeks 20 and 21 will look like in my book... (I like the green working together!)

Love of food (totally random).


I have decided to be a connoisseur of lobster bisque.

This recipe has been on my list to make for almost a year. I need to just make it already!


Still obsessed with macarons. This is the evidence of last Friday's taste test (Chocolate PB and Caramel for me, lavender and peach for Tyson).


Tyson grilled amazing steaks Saturday night. And the good thing is that we have leftovers for this week!

I also found a Chick-fil-a gift card in the junk drawer Friday night. Score!

Soooo cute. Tyson and Sophie cuddle every night before bed. She literally pounces on him as soon as he lays down on the couch.

Project Life 2013, Week 20

I probably could have done two pages this week if I really wanted to, but I'm liking the simplicity of just one!


So fun. This week was a pretty good one! I still need to work on using my regular camera and not just my phone though...

Project Life 2013, Week 18

I was able to spend a little time Saturday morning on Project Life from the week I skipped. I had more energy than usual since my husband brought me coffee in bed--such a treat! He had even been up since 5am grilling. Have I mentioned that he has become quite the prolific barbecuesionist? I don't think that's a word though...perhaps grill master is a better term! We had the most tender brisket and delicious ribs yesterday. Or maybe they just tasted amazing after the three and a half hours outside Whole Foods yesterday (on the hottest day of the year, of course). Anyways, without further ado...


I spent more time than usual adding text, and I love the result. Maybe I should drink more coffee?


This will be weeks 18 and 19 together. Hizzah! I have been scouting the newly-released Project Life kits, but the problem is that I am having trouble choosing. They are all so cute...

Project Life 2013, Week 19

I have been so blog-lazy lately! I am going to blame it on the fact that I'm staying caught up on grading and other end of the year school stuff, which is totally not a bad thing. Plus, Brody and Sophie have seen a major increase in the after school walking scenario. Which makes for happy everyone.


Hola week 19! I skipped 18...hopefully I can finish that this weekend. Anyways, this was last week. It was a pretty normal yet excellent week. The only thing not represented from the week would be our walks and the cheer swim party (the latter not photographed for obvious reasons). I am not very good about taking pictures throughout a day...I feel like the ones I grab are super random. And all with my phone...I can't even remember the last time I hooked up my real camera.

...technically it's still Wednesday :o)

This week has been full. In a good way. I've been walking the dogs more (thanks, Cesar Millan), enjoying Brain Quest trivia, and enjoying/counting down the last days with my students (19 days and counting).

Project Life 2013, Week 17


Here is last week's Project Life...mostly pictures. I'm okay with that though.
