Labor Day Weekend + a Sunday Funday

 This was the last Sunday Funday of summer and it was our biggest one. 
I didn't take many photos but I snapped this quick one of some of the guests.
Also this one of the food.  We served brunch this time and the menu was:
Quiche (4)
Croissants
Fruit salad
Sweet Kale Salad
Vegan Baked Carrot Cake Oatmeal
Veggie Chili
Here was the mimosa bar area and someone brought bloody Mary mix..they were a hit.
Anniversary flowers delivered while Mr. Click was away. Gorgeous!
Kicking off Labor Day weekend at a vineyard.
Fox Hollow is such a pretty one!
Playing Exploding Kittens--it would be more fun with a group.
Going to another beach fireworks show.
Loved it!


Picked up City Girl #2 at the train station and took her out to dinner. We tried a new to us place, Mangia Toscano.  We shared everything and it was delicious!
We were stuffed and took a stroll around the cute town of Metuchen.
Mr. Click's band had a gig that Sunday. It was on the waterfront and such a fun venue.  CG #2 and I had dinner at the show and I drove her to the ferry which was close by and convenient!      We took it easy on actual Labor Day by doing some outlet shopping and going out to lunch.
What a way to wrap up our summer!

First Sunday Funday Weekend of the Summer

We had a good weather forecast for Sunday but first we had the rest of the weekend. 

City Girl #1 came home on Thursday and we took her to dinner at an oceanfront restaurant.

Mr. Click had a local gig that we both attended on Friday night.  CG had to go back on Saturday and we prepped for the party.
Sunday morning..sunny and beautiful with my coffee by the pool.
All ready for the day!
We had an easy menu: crockpot meatballs, pesto pasta, salad & rolls.
We got most of it from Costco.
The beverage area (cold drinks were in the fridge).
Flowers and snacks poolside.
The pool was ready.
I took most of the pics before people arrived.
My yummy meal.

The 2-Ingredient Fruit Cobbler was a hit! We had a small group but it was a great first Sunday Funday of the season.

Loving Lately...

What I've been loving lately...
These Halloween pj's from Walmart.  They are so soft and perfect for right now when it's been pretty warm. I love the cute cat print.
My orchid bloomed! I've had a few orchids for over a year and one has just re-bloomed for the first time!  Any tips would be appreciated!
I made the easiest pumpkin chocolate chip bars for one of our Sunday Fundays and they were gobbled up. Recipe coming soon.
Loving the early entry perk for executive members at Costco. We can enter at 9 am and we're out of there by 9:30 when the rest of the members are arriving.
This Honeycrisp Apple kombucha is SO good!
My pedicure before our trip to Kauai.
Getting to see so many lovely sunsets.
Discovering new places for breakfast.  This looks so beachy!
We like to order a pancake for the table to try them out.
I was craving my Vegan Chickpea Tuna and made it for a Sunday Funday.  Everybody loved it!
We also grilled up a lot of fresh produce that we were given.
I added these burgundy leaves from Aldi to my early fall decorating.
And I always love seeing this face!

{Shopping} Spring Walmart Finds

 I stopped in at Walmart to pick up some more storage containers for my pantry and saw so many cute things for Spring.

There was a whole line of outdoor entertaining things from Mainstays by Becky G & Alejandra.
I didn't know who they were but I looked them up and Becky G. is a singer and Alejandra is her mom. They've done a beautiful collaboration with Walmart that is inspired by their family's journey and commitment to social empowerment.
The pieces all mixed and matched.
I was thrilled to see this kind of beverage glass but made out of non breakable materials.
 The price point was so reasonable for things too.  Everything is under $20.
Cute outdoor wine glasses.
There was a whole wall of more of their home goods.
The Pioneer Woman dishes are so pretty too.
I noticed that a box of 3 wooden Mason jar lids was $13.42 so the set I found at Dollar Tree was such a steal!
While in the organizing aisle, I picked up two of these shoe organizers. I've since gone back for two more. They area snap to put together and really make the closets looked pulled together while keeping our shoes off of the floor.
I was so impressed with the planters in the garden section. I was way too overwhelmed to pick anything out and I didn't know what sizes I needed.
These graphic black and white beauties also caught my eye.
I love getting a new pair of pj's for the season and WM's Joyspun line is so soft and the styles are on point.
So cute!
I found this set on sale and I love it.  I can definitely wear this shirt as more than pj's!
They had some unique Disney fashions and I was tempted by the adorable Marie tee shirt.

Did you know they carried The Cheesecake Factory's "Famous Brown Bread"?!  I didn't pick it up this trip but I'm keeping it in mind for another time.
