Hi friends and welcome to a brand new week!  I’m so thankful for our slow weekend and time to just chill and be together as a family.  We got to go to the pool over the weekend!  We had to make a reservation and they are only allowing a certain number of people at a time, but we really enjoyed it.  We went early so there weren’t very many people there, which is so unusual for this time of year.  It’s typically packed and you can barely find a seat!

Today I’m back with a new LOVES and I hope today’s GIVEAWAY sprinkles some sunshine into your day today!

Hello friends! Welcome to a brand new week!  How was your weekend?  We took it really slow and it was lovely.  Over the past few weeks, I’ve been decluttering and cleaning places in our home that haven’t gotten much attention.  It’s been so nice to spruce up the backyard, wipe down the table and chairs, clean up the grill, spray down the patio and watch the Star Jasmine bloom along the back fence.

We had several days of really nice weather, so we colored Easter eggs outside.  It was definitely fun to wake up on Easter morning and have Jordan come running into my room so excited to see the eggs lining the hallway! 

Today, it’s time for February Loves with a little surprise for you!  As a THANK YOU for reading and subscribing to my blog, I’m giving away EVERYTHING in my February Loves to one of my subscribers.  If you’re not subscribed, you can sign up here, and I will pick a winner at random and announce at the end of the month!

FEBRUARY LOVES

If you’re new to Loves,

Hi friends!  Happy Monday before Christmas!! Are you working today?  Off getting things done? In a panic about what’s left to do?  My friends and I were talking about the 5-day panic that sets in right before Christmas where you start freaking out about having things ready.   Hopefully, we’re past that by now and ready to relax and enjoy the next few days with our friends and family. ♥

Today, I have a short and sweet December Loves with a little surprise for you!  As a THANK YOU for reading and subscribing to my blog, I’m giving away EVERYTHING in my December Loves list to one of my subscribers. 

Hello friends!  It’s amazing what some good sleep and girlfriend time can do for you!  A bunch of us went to Round Top this weekend for the semi-annual antiques fair and good old fashion fun.  We spend the day laughing and shopping and eating and laughing some more.  That 24-hour getaway helped get my mind clear and ready for the week.

I’m one of those weird people that likes Monday because I think of it as a mini “fresh start” every week.  As long as I get to spend some time reflecting, planning, and getting organized on Sunday,

Hello friends and happy Monday!  I hope you had a great weekend.  We’ve been soaking up those last days of summer before school starts on Wednesday.  Wednesday!! 

And tonight we get to meet Jordan’s Pre-K3 teacher.  I’m so excited for her to get to see her classroom and sit in her little chair for the first time!   It’s a big step for both of us, but I know she’s gonna thrive and have so much fun getting to play with kids her own age for a change.  The social aspect alone will be wonderful for her.

Good morning friends!  We’re onto Day 2 of camp and so far, so good!  I’m lucky to be sharing carpool duties with Ali-Shaun and Jamie and that makes things so much easier.  And of course, I do appreciate a little bit of a routine, it helps our days flow better.

JUNE LOVES

Today, it’s time for a new Monthly Loves. If you’re new to Loves, it’s where I share things I’m loving each month, with the aim to highlight fabulous things I swear by, some things I want to try, great deals, and under $50 finds! 

Hello again and welcome back!  If I haven’t told you lately- THANK YOU for being here!  I genuinely love getting to pop up in your email or hopefully be a bright spot in your day!  Did you find yesterday’s 10 Handy Household Items helpful?!  From the looks of it, I’m not alone in my fondness for that nifty cardboard cutter!

APRIL GIVEAWAY

Speaking of thank you’s, I’m giddy to announce my April giveaway!

I’m giving away a $100 gift card to Target, Kendra Scott Earring Ladder, and the Get Fit Done Guide!  

Good morning friends and happy Valentine’s Day! I hope you get spoiled rotten even if you’re not big on the day.  I’m all about treating the kids and don’t mind a little something for myself also! 😉

It’s time for my Monthly Loves and this one is focused solely on my beauty favorites!  It’s basically a ‘Ride or Die’ list of my beauty Must Haves that I swear by and use all the time.  This post isn’t sponsored, it just my very favorites, and many of them are drugstore finds!
