Ahhhh…it’s Monday. Not just any Monday…post-Oscar Monday. This means, I stayed up even later than usual getting excited about films I haven’t even seen. It’s 4:51 a.m. and I’m on my second cup of coffee already…but it was worth it :).
I really loved Ellen last night! For me, Billy Crystal is the king of the Oscars and can’t be beat…but Ellen did a great job. I love how Ellen really pulls the normal out of those celebrities. She did an excellent job of that last night! Here are some of my favorite things from last night’s Oscars (and then I have some other randomness)…
My favorite looks of the evening:
Hello Lupita Nyong’o…you looked stunning! Such a heartfelt acceptance speech too! Gorgeous girl!
Yeah. John Stamos really can do no wrong in my opinion.
I was lovin’ the blonde Julia Roberts last night! Beautiful!
And Bradley Cooper…not bad to look at.
Favorite couple of the evening:
My award for prettiest couple of the evening goes to these two…the Tatums looked stunning. Both of them.
My favorite moment of the evening:
This selfie was just brilliant. I loved it! A lot of pretty teeth in that picture…
I also loved when Ellen ordered pizza…Brad Pitt passing out paper plates was hysterical.
I loved Bette Midler singing Wind Beneath My Wings and Pink singing Somewhere Over the Rainbow. And of course, being the mom of two small kids, I loved Idina Menzel singing Let It Go :).
I’m tired…but it was worth it! I always love staying up for the Oscars!
So, other than Oscar watching, what did we do over the weekend? Here’s a few pics…
A little selfie time in the car before going into school.
It was Friday and they wanted pizza for lunch. Look how excited they are! I was having to restrain Smith from jumping over the counter!
Kensington came to dinner with little clips in her hair. I asked her if she did it herself and she said no. She said she made Smith open a salon and fix her hair. Poor Smith. He will do anything she asks!
She’s just my little side-kick. I love her so much.
We were outside eating lunch on Saturday and they played and played until our food arrived. The high Saturday was 75, the high Sunday was 31 and it snowed and the high today is 37…welcome to Texas. This is them holding holds and looking both ways to check for golf carts. 🙂
At dinner on Saturday night, he was all snuggly next to me in our booth.
And then he wanted me to take a picture of him with his noodle necklace on his ears…boys.
And if you missed it yesterday…
Look at the savings at Gap, Banana, Old Navy and Piperlime! Woohoo! Click here for the deals!
And Meal Planning Monday is up and ready for you! Don’t stress about what to prepare this week…I have you covered!
I’m off for my Monday now! Only 5 more days until Friday and the beginning of Spring Break! Woohoo!

I agree that the pizza bit was HILARIOUS. Her hitting up people for money had me laughing so hard! And I love that Smith did K's hair. What a good little brother! Off to Meal Planning Monday……… 🙂

I didn't watch the whole show, but I've got to say I think that this was one of the best Oscars I have seen. Not only were a lot of the movies films that I have actually heard of (although have not yet seen) but Ellen really interacted with all of the stars, which made it so much more fun to watch.
Tab & Erika says
Ellen isn't my FAVE, but she did GREAT last night. Loved the pizza and that selife!! I also loved how all the celebrities really got into it!
Liz says
I made it until 10pm. I really wanted to see Idina Menzel but knew 5am would come far too quickly if I didn't go to bed.
Cute photos! Looked like a great weekend!

Laura Fuller says
I think John Stamos definitely gets better with age. He is fabulous!

Missed the Oscars but I've enjoyed my recaps from you and Kidd Kraddick in the Morning. We enjoyed our sunny Saturday in shorts and again we are bundled up and freezing today. Just in time to freeze for Mardi Gras festivities tomorrow.

Blue-Eyed Bride says
Oh my gosh. So many beautiful looks last night. I thought the show was simple, but fun! Loved all the audience interaction and seeing people's personalities
Kate at Green Fashionista says
Yes! Billy Crystal is king of the Oscars, but Ellen did the best job since him. The pizza and the selfies? Brilliant!
Liz/happymommy says
Loved Ellen on the Oscars last night…. loved the best selfie ever and the pizza delivery was hysterical!!! We are pretty much Frozen obsessed at our house right now and listened to the soundtrack about 863 times this weekend so I also was so looking forward to the performance at the Oscars and it didn't dissapoint! So cute of S to do K's hair….they are just adorable!

I made your Jalapeno Pepper Chicken Enchilada stacker last night. Yummo!! Even my picky 6 year old ate it. I am glad I took the seeds out of the jalapeno as it was spicy and she does not like spicy. 🙂

I have a really random question. I think you posted before on how you clean your Hunter wellies, but I can't find it anywhere…..if you did post that can you tell me where I can find it? My wellies need some love! Thank you!
Mix and Match Mama says
Email me about the Wellies and I'll send you the link!!
Kara says
Hi Shay, I would also love the link for how to clean my Wellies. They are all chalky 🙁 but they have been great while we've been living in Stockholm!
Angie says
Our Kentucky weather has been extremely bi polar too! We went from 4-wheeler riding to being snowed and iced in today. I'm ready for Spring!!!
Kelly says
Your kids are simply the cutest! I love how they enjoy taking selfies. I hope my little girl turns out the same way when she gets bigger. Have a fabulous week 🙂
mel @ the larson lingo says
LOVED the Oscars last night. Really, really loved them. Sandra Bulluck's dress was my favorite. So timeless & classic. I would totally wear that dress. No idea where I would wear it to, but I would wear it 🙂
Julia Gabor says
A few posters have already asked but I would also like the link to cleaning Wellies .. (If it's not too much of a hassle). And I love the picture of your babies holding hands looking out for golf carts!
Mix and Match Mama says
Yes! I asked them to email me and then I sent them the link! I would be happy to send you the link too! Just email me at mixandmatchmama@yahoo.com.
