AND A GOOD TIME WAS HAD BY ALL
I am just going to tell you right off the bat that I am having a wonderful time with my family!!! It is wonderful having them in to visit. There is lots and lots of laughter throughout the house. You can hear squeals of delight, along with the normal squabbles and fights that comes with having 4 children under the age of 8 in the house.Â
Today we swam in the pool, and then we went to see Finding Dory at the movies. Joe and Matthan (my son) went to play golf, so Stephanie (DIL), Kayla (DIL), and I took the 4 babes to the movies because it was crazy hot here. We thought the cool theatre sounded better than the burning sun at the pool. Also, I think our fingers were crossed that a nap might be taken by several of them while they were watching the movies. No such luck. Hahaha When the movie was over, Matti needed to go to the bathroom, but the line was really long, so we decided to chance it and head on home. I have never seen such squirming and contorting all the way home. Stephanie might have been a Nascar driver in a prior life because we made it home in record time. Matti was out of that vehicle in a matter of seconds!!! Just in time, or as my husband the engineer would say, JIT.Â
It is 10:30 p.m., and I have just sat down to write. I am going to try a different tactic tomorrow, and write my post when I wake up, instead of waiting till the end of the day. I am going to tell you the brands I am wearing, but not linking to anything today. Sorry, I am just too lazy and a little bit on the tired side. I am not used to having 4 children in the house. Lol!This really cute coral cardigan is by Quacker Factory, and I bought it at the QVC overstock outlet in town. I will be honest, I am not a “huge” fan of Quacker Factory, but I occasionally find something I like. I love coral, so this caught my eyes right off the bat. There is just a little bling in the sweater and the buttons.
I have on a Chloe & Isabel necklace ( short one) and a Plunder Design long necklace. I completely forgot to put on earrings, and I didn’t even notice until I was almost through with the pictures. I have a friend, Susie, that can forget everything else, but she HAS to have on earrings. Haha
I have on a Chloe & Isabel, Stella & Dot, and a Plunder bracelet. I like mixing all the jewelry together, along with silver and gold. There is not reason to be so rigid, wear what you like!
There is nothing wrong with your computer or phone. I didn’t notice till I uploaded the pictures to the computer, that my camera lens WAS fogged over. I am going to have to start letting the cold camera adjust to the hotter temperatures outside. By the time I finished with the pictures, the lens had cleared up. The linen purse is one of my favorites and I have had it for a couple years. It is by Michael Kors, and I bought it at TJ Maxx. The sandals are c/o of NINA Shoes. I knew when I picked out this pair that I would get lots of wear out of them.

Wow, I missed this one, I like your outfit, and have liked Quacker Factory, and I have had several of their pieces.
Did notice, no earrings, but with the bling necklaces, your didn’t really need it.
Glad your having fun with your family, I get my grandkids Saturday for 2 weeks, they are 13,11, and 9. I have been trying to get ready for them. 1 girl, 2 boys..
Have a great day!
Your close-up shot is phenomenal! What a beautiful lady you are! Your necklace makes earrings unnecessary! Hope you have a great evening!
Love your outfit. But I love practically anything you wear. Your style is very much to my taste. Thanks for giving me some wonderful ideas. ??
So glad you are having a great time with your family!
Just snagged the short sleeve sweater off of QVC. Thanks for the reference!
I just had the BEST visit from my only sister and husband! Things could not have gone better starting with the Garth Brooks concert and ending with a trip to Hoover Dam. Las Vegas is the BEST! LOVED seeing my sister!
I love the color of the shorts/shoes/purse and the sweater is adorable!
I’m so glad you’re having fun with your family, precious moments indeed ? I like the length of your cami, some of them come a little short on me and I seem to be forever pulling the hem down.
I can tell you’re having a wonderful visit, your face and smile are absolutely radiant! Love that purse!
Have a wonderful time with your grandchildren and children.
Grandkids give us the perfect excuse to see movies like Finding Dory! I have ordered quite a bit from kayandstar thanks to you.?
Glad you are having a good time with the family! Your GFWC sisters want to know when you are going to have a visit from your two other BFF’s. They also live the Plunder. I told them you would try to accommodate them! Love you!
Sounds like lots of fun memories are being made! Family visits are precious. I actually don’t think you need earrings with this outfit Due to the necklace combination. I really love that the purse, shoes, and shorts are the same color. ?
Cute outfit! What brand are your shorts?
totally cute outfit! I enjoy many Quacker Factory pieces and this one is adorable on you. Some days, I just need some bling!
So glad to hear you had a great time with the family. Enjoy every moment!
I know how you feel, Audrey. There are days when I just need a little “bling”
