I’m in denial that it’s that time already but here we are! School. Sigh. If I’m going to face the facts, I’m planning my little heart out so that I’m not completely frazzled in the weeks to come! I don’t know about you but my school mornings leave very little wiggle room for luxurious breakfasts that require a lot of time and prep. I decided to put together a back-to-school menu of breakfast ideas for you, and let’s face it, myself as well. At the crack of dawn, I’m still craving something nutritious and filling that won’t have my belly growling all morning long! Whether this happens to be for you or for your kiddos, allow yourself to try a few of these recipes to make the start of the school year a little smoother. 😉 Here’s to savoring the last bits of summer and welcoming all things Fall!

What I’m reminiscing about:Last year we would have just getting back from our honeymoon and I’m thinking of all the memories that we’re included. I loved every second of it and wish we could go back! 🙂
What I’m loving:This lemon essential oil that you can enter to win, here! Today is the last day to enter!
What we’ve been up to:
The babies keep coming and I love it! Between nannying, babysitting, and looking at so many registries for baby showers, I compiled a list for me to look back on someday. 😉 Does anyone else love these?!
What I’m dreading:
Waking up at 4:50 a.m. in just a few short weeks…
What I’m working on:Christmas shopping. 🙂 Pajamas were a favorite last year!

I. Can’t. Wait!
What I’m watching/reading:Guilty. It happened a lot this month. Christmas is on my mind.

Bonus Question: What was your favorite part about summer?
The slower pace. I am endlessly grateful. I also love the heat, the pool, and checking things off the to-do list. I just love summer so much! 🙂 What was your favorite part of summer?!
We made it to Friday! As always, I’m linking up with Erika, Narci, and Andrea.
One.On Sunday we had a surprise baby shower for Sheri. I loved celebrating Baby Long! 🙂
Two.Eric, Gilmore Girls, and little bit of Talenti was a successful and favorite Saturday night.
Three.Getting together with a group of friends to watch hometowns this week was obviously a favorite.
Four.Lara bars are one of my favorite snacks and I think I decided lemon is officially my favorite kind. Amen.
Five.Our flights are officially booked and we are going to Colorado! How could this not be a favorite?!?! Eric has always wanted to go, and after living there for a summer, I am so excited to show him places I’ve been and explore new ones with him. It is absolutely beautiful and we are so ready for a vacation!
