I missed last week's link up for What's Up Wednesday but I do like to keep this record so I'm posting it today.
What we're eating this week...
As I'm writing this on Saturday morning I don't have our meal plan for the week figured out yet. We just need to get back on the healthy train after indulging during our holidays last week (no regrets though, that's what holidays are for!).
What I'm reminiscing about...
We celebrated E's Birthday last week and I was reminiscing about bringing him home from the hospital (thanks to Facebook memories). Even though he is 12 now, he still loves spending time with us.
What I'm loving...
The fall colours finally arrived here. It took awhile since the weather hadn't been cold enough, but when we got home on Friday I was happy to see those bright reds, oranges, and yellows. I do love where we live so we can enjoy all of the seasons.
What we've been up to...
The kids did cross-country, with E making it to the second round. They are working hard at school. I was there the other day and saw some of Q's artwork out in the hallway.
What I'm dreading...
We say this every year but we would like to not go overboard with Christmas spending this year. We did just go to Disney and we are in the midst of a renovation so it would make sense to have a more austere holiday season. I'm still dreading the visa bills that come in after the holidays though!
What I'm working on...
Putting together my posts on our trip to Disney and Universal. I often look back at the posts from 2018 so I'm excited to put these together.
What I'm excited about...
Halloween! It's not my strongest holiday, but I love seeing the different costumes and carving pumpkins.
What I'm watching/reading...
I'm watching Starstruck on my own. Dave and I are watching The Morning Show and Dope Sick. As a family we are watching The Amazing Race, The Great British Baking Show, Battle Bots, and Disney's Behind the Attraction. And after being on Disney rides last week, we need to catch up on some Disney movies that Q has never seen, like Pirates of the Caribbean and Tron.
I read two books this month - The Survivors by Jane Harper, which was really quite good. And also Between Us by Mhairi McFarlane, a little paperback I picked up at the drug store. Although the writing could have been a bit better, there were times when things needed to be more clear, it was a fun little read. Plus it was set in England (and the first book was in Australia) and I always enjoy books set overseas.
What I'm listening to...
Disney100 Official Playlist. We listened to it the morning we left for our trip and I'm still putting it on for now.
What I'm wearing...
What I'd love to be wearing is this sweatsuit I got for E at Zara. Doesn't it look so comfy?!
What I'm doing this weekend...
Looking forward to having no plans, other than swimming and church.
What I'm looking forward to next month...
A girls trip to South Beach and the Keys and hopefully wrapping up the majority of our house renovations.
What else is new...
The kids were watching LegoMasters and now they are full into the Lego again. But instead of building a kit, they are just using their imaginations (!) and it's a nice change from video games all of the time.
