Hi friends! How was your weekend? I hope you had some fun + relaxing plans. We enjoyed a busy one starting with a fun run at the kids’ school on Friday night, a couple of birthday parties, and our neighborhood block party.
As we all sit down to plan our week, here are a few to-dos you might consider adding to your own list. Let’s make it a wonderful week, friends!
Thank you for your friendship and readership. Xx Meg
THE WEEKLY MEMO
October 9th — October 15th
Winter Wardrobe — INVENTORY YOUR MINIS CLOSETS. Do a quick audit of your children’s dressers to ensure they have what they need for Winter and all the magical moments we can enjoy with them.
Halloween — Last call for ordering costumes! Make sure you order costumes TODAY to get the costume you want, and don’t have to pay rush shipping! THE BEST HALLOWEEN SHOPS and CHIC HALLOWEEN COSTUMES AND OUTFITS FOR LITTLES
Halloween — Check Local Events. See what fun events are offered locally — like a haunted house, fall fair, downtown trick or treating, etc. Think about what’s age appropriate and ask your kids what events they want to do.
Halloween — Order Pumpkin Carving Supplies. It’s time to order your pumpkin candles and any carving/decoration supplies you need this year. THIS MESSERMEISTER 3 PIECE CARVING SET is the best and last pumpkin carving set you’ll ever need to buy.
Halloween — Buy Halloween Candy. You can’t have Halloween without Halloween candy, and it’s time to decide what you will be passing out this year to the trick-or-treaters! It’s essential to place your order soon since some of the best candies can typically sell out early!! We researched and curated THE BEST HALLOWEEN CANDY, ranked tastiest across the country, so you’re the house with the best goodies on the block.
Holidays Bucket List — The Nutcracker and Polar Express. I hope I don’t get too many eye rolls — because we haven’t even celebrated Halloween — but if you want to see The Nutcracker or Ride The Polar Express, it’s best to plan your tickets now as the best days and times, and seats sell out quickly. This week, research your options, look at your calendar, and pencil in possible dates.
Thanksgiving — Early Preparations — Invite your family and friends if you will be hosting Thanksgiving this year. If you will be driving, talk to your partner, decide the exact dates you want to travel, and mark it on your work (and home) calendars to ensure everyone gets/stays on the same page.
Thanksgiving — Book Car & Beauty Appointments — If you will be driving, take a quick look and see if your car needs a tune-up before your trip. If so, call today to make your appointment. And make sure you feel your best by booking any waxing, hair (cut/blowout), and other beauty appointments now so you get the date/time you want before your trip.
I hope these micro-tasks inspire you to take action so you can create unforgettable memories with the ones you love the most.
