What’s Up Wednesday {10/31/18}

Today I’m linking up withShay,MelandSheafferfor this month’s What’s Up Wednesday! The prompts are highlighted so check it out and join the fun!

1. WHAT WE’RE EATING THIS WEEK

Don’t you love a no-fail crockpot recipe? I’ve made this white chicken chili several times and it’s always a hit in my house.

2. WHAT I’M REMINISCING ABOUT

Gathering old swim photos for our daughter’s senior night poster. For the past 10 years our weekends have been spent at the pool watching her swim meets. Sadly, she’s had several injuries the past few years and is not able to continue swimming in college. It’s going to be a big change for all of us!


3. WHAT I’M LOVING

The blogging community! Everyone has been so sweet and welcoming after my year long blogging break! I’m so happy to be back and part of this wonderful community!

4. WHAT WE’VE BEEN UP TO

October has been jammed packed with activities and rounding out the month was the Northwestern/Badgers football game last weekend. It was a little chilly with the lake breeze coming in, but overall, perfect football weather!

5. WHAT I’M DREADING

Nothing! And that is such a great feeling!

6. WHAT I’M WORKING ON

My nephew and his wife are expecting early next year and I’ve been making decorations, including hot air balloon centerpieces, and putting together games for an adventure themed baby shower.  

7. WHAT I’M EXCITED ABOUT

My sister coming for a visit Thanksgiving weekend!

8. WHAT I’M WATCHING/READING

Are you a true crime enthusiast? The hubs and I just started watching I Am a Killer, on Netflix. The documentary follows 10 death row inmates and examines their crimes and motivations behind them. 



9. WHAT I’M LISTENING TO

A Star is Born soundtrack. I’m a huge fan of Lady Gaga and Bradley Cooper’s deep, gravely, baritone voice is amazing! The soundtrack is entrancing, with a mix of music styles.

10. WHAT I’M WEARING

I been transitioning fall pieces back into my closet and remixing what I have instead of making any new purchases. This will help me narrow down what I do want to add or update so that I don’t go overboard.


11. WHAT I’M DOING THIS WEEKEND

Hosting a pre-swim conference pasta party and attending the conference swim meet on Saturday. I’ve always hosted when the temps were warmer so that the tables and food could be set up outside. It’s going to be interesting seeing how this plays out indoors!

12. WHAT I’M LOOKING FOWARD TO NEXT MONTH

Using my Anthro birthday discount! I saw this outfit on display when I was shopping with Laura back in August and it went right onto my wish list. Fingers crossed that it will finally be on sale! 

13. WHAT ELSE IS NEW

Mostly home organization and fall yard cleanup. Purging things we no longer need, recycling, donating. 

That’s what’s up Wednesday today!
