The Queen’s Chronicles
This week started to be a slow picture week but ended with a bang! Here’s what we were up to.
I logged 5 workouts which included trying a step class. Step use to be my very favorite workout but it has probably been at least 8 years since I’ve been to a step class. It was so fun!
It’s been a rough week on the home front for meals. I have seriously been in a cooking funk but finally on Thursday I decided enough was enough and made my moms meatloaf.
I shared my March outfit favorites on Instagram.
And the biggest event…..I rolled 100K on my beloved Maxima!! It was seriously a huge moment and I made sure the kids were aware of just how huge an event this was as we counted down AND pulled over for a picture.
I headed to my hometown Friday afternoon and was able to catch this little princess in action on the softball field. Love the intensity!
And the bubble blowing!
Her team had a rough game…..but I’m blaming it on the pitcher! Seriously…loved seeing my brother out there being a daddy.
Then we headed over to visit Mamaw. I seriously can’t take a serious picture with this girl. She’s always saying something crazy the entire time we are trying to take a picture.
She kind of loves for us to come visit….and kind of spends the entire time telling the kids not to touch anything. haha. I loved that Carly was giving her the run down of her schedule for the weekend.
Nana’s house is known best for homemade waffles in bed….even for the adults! I didn’t hesitate to enjoy mine. I’m a weirdo and do not eat syrup.
We spent most of the day in Houston watching Dillon play baseball. It was a beautiful day.
We picked up my niece and nephew and took them Los Cucos for dinner. For certain Aunt Shelly required a large marg to make it through our sleepover! This restaurant was a seafood restaurant when I was growing up and it sits right on the Colorado river so we had to have a river view.
Seriously am not sure how I ended up alone at a mall but I almost got lost! I came home with a few of these things but surprisingly not all of them. J. Crew Factory was having a great sale and even though I did not need any more shorts, at $19 I had to grab one more pair. Not pictured but I also grabbed this tee..because I’m on an orange binge.

I treated myself to a Sonic diet coke with vanilla and cherry for happy hour. Soft drinks are not something I crave very often but every once in awhile a Sonic drink is the best treat!
I ended the week with a surprise date on the patio ALONE with this guy. I don’t think we have had this much conversation alone in a good month. It was nice! Don’t tell but he may be my favorite. #dimplesfordays
Hope you all have a super week!

Oh my goodness! The bubble gum pic of Morgan is precious! LOVE it! And, Mamaw always makes me smile! Maybe it's because I'm pretty sure she's saying something inappropriate! 😉 And, I need a date with you soon. It was so fun having lots of time with you and then – BAM – nothing! 🙁
Homemade waffles? YEs please. And yeah large margs are awesome!
I was glad to see that you had a half tank of gas in that picture !!!! Lol.
yay surprise date and homemade waffles. I could go for some waffles!!!
I've never done well with step classes, I'm so uncoordinated it's embarassing lol

That meatloaf looks wonderul! But waffles with no syrup!? Mamaw cracks me up!
Surprise dates are fantastic. I think even more fun than planned ones. Yay, for your Maxima…hoping my Altima follows your car's good example. We are at 65K right now and going strong. Love the outfits in the dressing room, the baseball, your PEDI! And those blue heels in the top pics of your fav March outfits are killer, girl friend.!
I have a step class I take occasionally and I really like it!

Surprise dates are far and few between for us but oh so great when we get one! I always have the same problem with J.Crew shorts – I feel like I can't go into the store without buying a new pair. They're the best! Have a fantastic Monday! -xx Leah || Chasing Texas
So much fun!! You are so cute 😉 I love all your outfits
Sounds like such a great week!

I haven't tried a step class in years – I'd probably kill myself :)! Love all your family pics, and every outfit is adorable!
Thanks so much Lana! I was a little unsure how step was going to go down after so much time but for some reason no one in this class did anything other than the step flat on the ground…..I was really relieved!
Hope you are having a super week Lauren!
Thanks sweet Chelsea!! Hope you are having a super week.
The struggle to leave a great new color behind is so real Leah!!
I really didn't realize I missed it at all but it was so much fun! Hope you are having a super week Darcy!
Girl…you know I'm weird already! I stopped eating lots of sweets when I was in junior high and started my obsession with my weight…and some things I just never missed enough to add back. My mamaw is a trip….girl she will say stuff like "everybody say sex" when we are taking pictures!!
One little date did such wonders to improve our demeanor towards one another! Hope you are having a super week!
Hahahaha….right? Next day I got to the ballpark and Keith saw I only had the — showing…not impressed.
You know it…I don't indulge in margaritas too often but it was the best! Hope you are having a super week Sarita!
Morgan was intense girl….but that is all she did was stand there lol. Once the ball was hit somewhere she totally got engrossed in actually watching the game instead of playing it. 2nd grade….really young to "get" it I think.
The intensity in those softball photos is so great :D! Good job on 5 workouts lady! I'm not really much of a syrup fan either but I do like fruit on mine.
My favorite it wrapping my waffle around some bacon or spreading it with peanut butter! yum
