Ninja Rope
Speaking of good climate, we’ve had a hammock swing beneath this tree for a very long time now and simply switched it to a ninja rope that the boys bought for Christmas. Birch likes to swing on it, and Mazen has formally climbed to the highest! It’s so laborious on the fingers. I would like some weight lifting gloves to provide it a real check. It’s tougher than it seems.

Thomas and I bought to go to our first UVA recreation as a pair lately. We ate dinner at dwelling, however then went to the Birch and Bloom bar for a drink earlier than the sport. I’m obsessive about the Hazel Fashioned they make! It’s an quaint with a contact of hazelnut and coconut dusted ice.
And who’re we kidding – I solely go to basketball video games for the ice cream! Actually it’s Thomas who began this ritual. Every single recreation he goes to he will get a Ben & Jerry’s simply after halftime. I used to be joking with him that the individuals who sit by our common seats in all probability know him as “ice cream guy” and make bets on when he’ll come again with a cone and guess what flavors he bought this time. If you’re questioning, Caramel Blondie and Cookie Dough!
And talking of blondies…..this Turtle Bar I introduced dwelling from Great Harvest (on a unique day) OMG was it so good!

We made this a complete occasion with costumes and a themed celebration earlier than. I hosted a 90s identify that tune. My outfit was extra sporty / preppy / scrunchie 90s with my Bayside one-shoulder T-shirt that makes an look each few years. I additionally had gentle up scrunchies that had been so enjoyable I’ll be sporting them to each decade celebration! And this fanny pack that I bought clear so I may additionally put on it to clear-bag concert events.

The subsequent theme night time I’m planning is a screening of the film The Village. I purchased a dressing up impressed by Those We Do Not Speak Of. If you recognize, you recognize!
Cloak + claws. I’ll possible be sporting this for Halloween this 12 months too. Birch is fearful of the fingers, however I put this costume on and hid in Mazen’s room and he didn’t flinch haha. Watch that right here!!

New Finds
Some new NA finds! I used to be sucked into an advert by the web store Zero Proof and purchased some new NA drinks. I’ll report again on how all of them are!

Sipping it with some Shrimp Scampi and salad for dinner.
Still loving the Trail Magic drinks too! I believe my favourite is the Berry Basil, however this one is sweet too. I can’t do a complete can – simply half is nice for me!
