The Weekly Vlog 2016 // Edition #15

May 22, 2016 by Marnie Leave a Comment

Shane & Jake Goldberg getting PVSA Awards

Looking back over the week, I realized we did quite a bit!  We started off with the annual President’s Volunteer Service Awards (PVSA), which keeps track of the kids’ volunteer hours over the course of the summer/school year.  Depending on their age and minimum requirements, you can receive a bronze, silver or gold award.  I’m proud to announce that Shane received the Bronze award and Jake received the Silver award this year.  Combined, the boys served the community in various ways for over 200 hours since May 2015. This was Jake’s last ceremony, and he has been awarded with a PVSA every year since 5th grade (and maybe earlier, but we can’t remember that far back)! He was also asked to introduce the guest speaker that evening, our own District 9 City Councilman.  Of all the accomplishments my boys have achieved, the fact that they choose to volunteer and serve our community makes me the most proud.  Congratulations to Jake and Shane!

Other highlights of the week included sampling a selection of Swedish snacks from our monthly Treats box,  trying out a (new to us) restaurant called Mediterranean Turkish Grill (amazing), having a lazy Sunday breakfast at another new to us spot called Halcyon Coffee Bar-Southtown (also amazing), trying out a Chicken & Rice Casserole recipe for dinner (adults liked it, kids were unimpressed), and also forgoing an actual meal for dinner and opting for ice cream instead!!

If you’d like to see the whole week’s antics, complete with a full list of what we did, where we went, and what I wore, watch the video HERE. And if you want to catch up on all of 2016’s Weekly Vlogs, have a look at the 2016 Weekly Vlog Playlist.

I also uploaded three videos on my YouTube channel this week.  If you missed them, you can click on the titles to have a look:

Finally, if you’re reading this blog post on Sunday, May 22nd, then today is the LAST day of the BaubleBar Stock Up Sale.  This is a great way to get some pieces at great prices AND load up on Vault Points to use for future purchases.  Just remember to use one of these codes: STOCKUP20 to get 20% off one piece, STOCKUP25 to get 25% off two pieces, or STOCKUP30 to get 30% off three or more pieces.  If you need suggestions, take a look at the blog post I wrote about it this week or have a look at the suggestions below.  Make sure you’re subscribed to my YouTube channel to catch the big BaubleBar Haul video that will go live on Wednesday morning!  If you’re reading this after Sunday, May 22, don’t worry…watch this space (or my YouTube channel) on Wednesday for a special announcement!

Thank you again for spending another week with me!  I am always so pleasantly surprised and so eternally grateful for the kindness and support you have shown me over the years!
