~Good morning!  We are having a pretty nice week around here.  Yesterday was Chuck E Cheese (which is pretty much WB’s Disney World) and Costco and a few nights ago went hit up a local restaurant for kids nights!  Paws, the mascot of the Detroit Tigers was there and L loved seeing him.  WB?  Not so much.  He’ll come around eventually though.

This Week

~I mentioned on Monday that we were going car shopping this week and we did.  I ended up with a white Ford Explorer.  I am super happy with it so far and love that third row of seats.  And so do the kiddos.  So much space.  It also drives like a dream and I am super impressed with the push button start.  Who thinks of these things?  I love it!

~Something I don’t love as much as I thought I would is Brownie Batter Oreo’s.  They smell like Brownie Batter, but I didn’t think they tasted much like it.  B said they tasted like chocolate.  If you eat just the cream they taste much more brownie batter like, but the cookie part gets in the way and makes them chocolately.  I think on a golden Oreo cookie they would be amazing.

~I still have quite a few subscription boxes I am expecting this week. I should be getting PopSugar Must Have Box, BOXYCHARM, ipsy, BirchboxYogi Surprise, Dottiebox Mini, Beauty Box 5, Love With Food, Julep Mystery Box, Kiddable, SnackSack and some others I can’t think of off the top of my head.

~Has anyone given any thought to Halloween costumes yet?  Yeah, I know it’s only August, but I’m seeing Halloween everywhere these days. Whose idea was it to put Halloween stuff out so early anyway? I love seeing creative homemade costumes that people come up with and think I am going to try one for L or WB (or both) this year.  I figure if I start soon I may actually be done with it by Halloween ;).

~I am still debating an overnight trip to Chicago this weekend – mainly to check out the Birchbox Road Trip they’ll have there, but also because it’s one of the last summer weekends we have nothing going on and why not?  The kids would love it and if I can find an insane deal on Priceline, it might just happen.

That’s all from here!  What are you doing this weekend?  Are you expecting anymore boxes this week?
