Coffee Date

July 29, 2015 By Michelle Leave a Comment

Ok friends, here is how this is gonna go down.

Grab yourself a cup of coffee or tea or any other caffeinated beverage of your choosing {or decaf if you are in to that kind of thing} and let’s have ourselves a virtual coffee date. I don’t know about you, but I could sure use a little escape to swap stories and share life together.

First you should know this isn’t a fancy coffee date. No makeup or cute clothes required. If we are being honest, this is me on our coffee date….WARNING what you are about to see ain’t pretty.

Some days it’s hard to adult. We are friends having coffee so clearly you understand.

We would sit down and you would tell me how nice I smell. I would smile and politely say “thank you” even though it’s just a given #modest. I may look like a disgusting mess but I always, always smell good. I would tell you it’s the new perfume I have been obsessed with. The Marc Jacobs and Sephora collaboration Mod Noir is hands down one of my favorite perfumes of the year.

Then we would start chatting about our kids. I would ask how yours are and how your summer has been. We would swap stories of what insane thing their most recent tantrum was over and I would tell you how I have been a lazy mom letting my kids get way off of schedule. I would share how my kids have been going to bed later and later each night but that they also sleep in until 8. I would tell you how I need to get them back on schedule before school and fake embarrassment, but we would both know that I will ride that sleep train for as long as possible.

I would share our struggles with Potty Training and how the twins have ZERO interest. Every time the potty is brought up to them they quickly shut it down. “Mommy Potty, I Pull Up” they yell at me. We had such a hard time with Megan that I still haven’t recovered. They may be 5 and in pull ups but I am not ready to push it just yet. You would be a kind friend and offer some suggestion and never once make me feel judged. You are so awesome like that.

After we chatted about the kiddos we would start to talk about trash TV. I love all the Housewives, but it’s not really your thing so we chat HGTV. I would tell you about how much Will and I have been LOVING watching House Hunters Tiny Houses.

We would chat about how amazing the things they can do with such tiny spaces. We would then fantasize about our own tiny houses that we could put in our backyard as a little mom retreat. A place where we could sleep and read and relax and just get away from the daily chaos. We would get quiet and both stare off into the distance imagining how wonderful it would be and then one of us would get a text snapping us back to reality. Naturally it is our husbands asking for the hundredth time where something is or how to do something. We would give each other that knowing look that says “they would be lost without me”.

We would move the conversation from TV to You Tube because you are my friend and you know how much I love it. I would tell you all about how I am binge watching Mamrie Hart’s videos. This video of her and Tyler is my absolute FAVE….

I die laughing every time. We would joke about how ridiculous that Wine Rack thing is while secretly thinking we may want to give it a try.

Then I would tell you about a local Houston mama who I recently found on You Tube and I absolutely adore. Hannah is awesome sauce and I really really want to be her friend in real life.

After the laughs we would finish up our drinks and start to head out. We would exchange a quick hug because while I am no hugger, I am thankful you took the time out of your day to share some time with me. We would say we needed to get together again soon, and as we went our separate ways I would think about how much I would look forward to our time together again.

What would you want to say on our coffee date? Favorite things you want to share or funny stories that have to be told?

Instagram post 17864637601827512 This is what happens on day number 3,568,743 of quarantine: ice cream sundaes for DINNER. We have been spending endless time together and decided it was time to start a new family tradition, so we picked up the new DIY Sundae Kit from @baskinrobbins! The kit comes with 2 pre-packed quarts of ice cream, 3 toppings, an entire can of whipped cream and cherries! Ice
cream for dinner will now be a weekly staple. The kids are definitely not complaining! It’s a fun day with a Sundae! 
Comment below and tell me your favorite Baskin Robbins flavor!

Instagram post 17850899390014309 Disney is challenging us to share our first pictures with characters! I had to join in the fun and it was the best trip down memory lane. Disney has been threaded throughout my entire life. I pulled a few of my most favorite memories over the years. From partying in the streets during the most epic dance party and meeting our most favorite princesses to me being a kid at Disney myself. Oh, I also had to add a picture of Cinderella’s Castle. She really is the most beautiful cast member of them all! 
@waltdisneyworld we miss you more and more each day. You’ve brought us joy beyond words and we cannot wait for the day when we get to walk down Main Street USA again! 
Ok, now it’s your turn. Find your old photos of your favorite Disney characters and share the magic. Also, don’t forget to tag me. I want to see all your memories too!
