Memorial Day Weekend – Things to Do

[slideshow_deploy id=’1892′]

 

I hope I am not the only one that like to rock out in some overalls, or am I? These overalls were gifted to me awhile back but I have included a lot of similar ones at some affordable prices as well! There are some from Forever 21 for less than $30. This weekend was way too busy but I also got a lot of things done as well. I wanted to share with you guys this quick outfit to wear for the warmer weather, as well as some things I do on these long weekends. I also want to mention a thank you to all those who have served and are currently serving for our country. Your work doesn’t go unnoticed!

First off, the biggest task I try to accomplish on a three day weekend is cleaning my home. It can get pretty crazy in my household because I am currently taking a class, working full time, and trying to blog/vlog as well. Therefore, my home ends up being on the last of “to do list” which I hate to admit that, but other things do take priority. I am currently typing this as I sit in our living room and can literally “smell” the cleanliness. I am a sucker for cleaning and love having a clean home so I am super thankful I was able to clean out the house.

Secondly, I love spending time with family on long weekends. I don’t get to do it during the week because I work and go to school. My parents and brothers don’t live too far from me but it still at least a day trip to go visit them. I was able to spend three days there this weekend… BLESSED! I love hanging out with them and I have noticed that the older I get the more I want to spend time with them. For those graduating and wanting to leave, I am sure five years from now you’ll want to come back and live with your parents (haha).

Lastly, one of the things I like to do is accomplish all of errands. For example, grocery shopping, picking up home renovation items, homework, reading, blogging etc. It’s hard to try to do all of these errands during the week but when you have an extra day to try to accomplish these, it is well worth it! I always wish I had three day weekends on the norm, but who am I to try to change the policies (haha). The reason I like to do these things is because it sets me on the right direction for a productive week. I am really busy right now, so the extra time really does come in handy!

So that is pretty much how my long three day weekends usually look like. It would be nice if I told you guys I go on vacation and what not, but let’s be realistic, I really can’t do that right now. Alonso and I have a lot of upcoming projects we need to save for and trips as well. Okay, back to the outfit, I seriously love overalls. Whether they are pants or shorts, I am a big fan of them. I like to wear these in the summer time because they are pretty easy to pair with anything. I was debating wearing sandals or tennis shoes with them. The Nikes obviously won! They are my favorite and are currently on sale as well.
