Happy Friday! I hope you have all had a good week! Ours has been fantastic with so much going on! So I'm going to jump right in and share what I have loved this week! Of course I am linking up with Erika and Andrea to share these favourites.
My youngest turning 18!
I am going right back to this time last week, it was Ellie's 18th birthday. She had the best day and got everything she wanted and more. I will get around to writing about her special day and might make it a bumper post about her sisters birthday too as my eldest's birthday is in a few days. It is crazy to think I now have 2 adult children at home.
A Slytherin Krispy Kreme Doughnut!
The return to a routine!
Ellie is back at college which means we going to bed earlier and unfortunately getting up earlier, I am getting all the jobs done around the house when I am supposed to get them done, we are eating at sensible times and everything just feels more in order and I am happy about that. Summer is fun but I do like routine!
The dressing table!
Ellie was so surprised with the dressing table we had bought for her birthday, I printed out the picture of it and popped it in one of her birthday cards and she was so confused and then happy! Stu got it put together over the weekend which was great amusement for me. flat pack furniture is really sent to test us. Anyway it looks fabulous and it has so many drawers and hidden shelves to put things which has created so much more storage in Ellie's bedroom!
The Art of Racing in the Rain - Netflix!
This is an old movie from 2019 which I came across on Netflix. I wanted a nice movie to watch on Sunday afternoon and knew nothing about it when I started watching apart from Kevin Costner is the voice of the dog. It had me laughing and crying. It was just lovely!
The Art of Racing in the Rain tells the story of an aspiring race car driver, Denny, and his dog, Enzo, narrated from Enzo's perspective as he reflects on their life together. After being adopted as a puppy by Denny, Enzo learns about life, love, and loss through his owner's marriage to Eve and the birth of their daughter, Zoe. As Denny faces significant challenges Enzo remains loyal, drawing parallels between the skills needed for racing and the ability to navigate life's obstacles.
Added extras in Ellie's room!
As well as getting the dressing table for her birthday Ellie picked out a key hook which she is using to hang her necklaces and a little cat shelf which is for her gems and crystals. Her bedroom is exactly how she wants it now!
Unknown Number: The High School Catfish - Netflix!
A teen girl and her boyfriend face persistent harassment from an unknown caller. Police investigating the months of torment discover a revelation that upends their initial assumptions.
I had seen clips of this on TikTok and that was enough to get me interested. It was shocking and disturbing and had one of those moments that I didn't see coming! I sat there mouth open thinking what?!! Soon after I was shouting at the TV.
This mug from TK Maxx!
Autumn!
I know it's not officially Autumn until later in the month but as soon as September the 1st hit it felt like there was a shift in everything. It was chillier which meant I could wear my Autumn dresses, tights and boots, Ellie started the new year of college, The Great British Bake Off returned to our screens and we had a sausage casserole one evening for tea which feels like a proper Autumn meal.
What have you loved over the last week?
