What’s Up Wednesday (May 2023)

Hi friends! Happy Wednesday!

Today is another edition of What’s Up Wednesday with Sheaffer and Shay and I am so excited to catch up with you today! It’s the first week of summer and before we start to establish some summer rhythms we are taking it easy this week with sleeping in, vegging out and finishing up my busy season at work. I am so looking forward to having my girls home for summer and having a bit of a slower pace with work!

Let’s get started with today’s post…

1: WHAT WE’RE EATING THIS WEEK:

Tomorrow is Camren’s birthday so we are headed out to eat tomorrow but the rest of the week, its just a hodgepodge of whatever is here in the house. We have a bunch of random stuff we need to eat before it goes bad and this week while restful for the kiddos, is busy for Joe and I in the evenings while my pop up season comes to a close so we are doing a big feed yourself week with whatever they can make!

2. WHAT I’M REMINISCING ABOUT:

Last weekend we took the boat out for the first time! We have dreamed of having a boat for years and it feels a little surreal that we have one now! The kids are at the perfect ages and while our schedule is sometimes bonkers on the weekend, we really look forward to carving out time to spend together on the water.

3. WHAT I’M LOVING:

Right now, I am loving all the quotes I am finding on Instagram. Lately I have been cleaning up who I follow on IG and I am loving seeing all of the amazing content those I do follow post. If you haven’t cleaned up your follows lately, I highly recommend.

4. WHAT WE’VE BEEN UP TO:

School and cheer ended last week so we wrapped those up and had a great first weekend of summer. May was so busy with all the things from birthdays to school activities to parades for cheer and more. Life has felt chaotic but great this month but I would be lying if I said we weren’t looking forward to slowing down this summer.

Last day of school was a dress down day and I feel like they were as tired as they look, lol.

5. WHAT I’M DREADING:

Nothing at the moment!

6. WHAT I’M WORKING ON:

Gathered by Rooted and Free is growing and going in a really fun direction.

I have been working hard on that as well as new arrivals for Shop Rooted and Free.

Our inspired graphics collection was such a hit in May and we are launching a new collection to support a new local organization tomorrow!

Lots of exciting stuff around here.

7. WHAT I’M EXCITED ABOUT:

Summer break!

8. WHAT I’M WATCHING/READING:

I just finished Losing Hope by Colleen Hoover and started Beach Read by Emily Henry. I have been in a major reading slump this year and its been hard to find books that make me want to read so I am hoping this summer I can get back on my reading game.

Currently, watching lots of Yankees games and just pure randomness on TV since I haven’t had a lot of extra time to start a new series. If you have any you recommend, send them my way!

9. WHAT I’M LISTENING TO:

Grey’s Anatomy is playing in the background while I type this!
