Happy July 4th friends! ❤️💙

Happy July 4th friends! ❤️💙

As a mom, I wear many hats. . . If I were to choo

As a mom, I wear many hats.
.
.
If I were to choose, here’s how I would match up the responsibilities in my mom life to an actual hat collection:
.
.
Playtime/entertaining the kids: casual beanie
.
.
Cooking & Chores: down-to-business baseball cap
.
.
Mom night out/shopping/self care: fashionable fedora
.
.
Bedtime stories & snuggles: fun-loving sunhat
.
.
Just like the hats hanging in a closet, each mom “hat” serves a purpose and has to be worn every now and then!
.
.
What does your hat collection look like?

My bathing suit posts have been pretty popular with you gals! So I’ve linked my 3 favorite ‘mommy and me’ matching suits from Amazon. I’ve also found some cute Walmart swimsuits (swipe to see) and some fun outdoor water activities for kids.

Have a great weekend!

June - you have been a big month!!

We started off celebrating our Anniversary. Next we recently settled on a new house 🎉 and are currently in the middle of moving. Finally, we rounded out the month with Father’s Day, celebrating this past weekend since he worked the previous one. Swipe to see some of the fun we had this month. ❤️

This picture was taken the week we got engaged. And thinking back through the years and the life lived between then and now: the happy, the sad, the challenging, the exciting, I’m beyond grateful to be living it next to you, and with you. “How wonderful life is while you’re in the world.” —Elton John

Where are my fellow night owls? . . Despite trying

Where are my fellow night owls? .
.
Despite trying really really hard to become a morning person, I’ve always been most productive at night. And to be honest, I enjoy staying up late. .
.
Once the kids are in bed, I feel like I can totally concentrate with no distractions. The first thing I do is make a cup of tea and get busy working. I cross a few things off the to-do list before I get too tired. Next, I gather my thoughts & plans and review the schedule for the next day. Finally, I do a little reading or watch a show before heading to bed. .
.
How do you set yourself up for your best days?

What’s your absolute favorite way to unwind? . .

What’s your absolute favorite way to unwind? .
.
Before kids I used to roam the aisles of Nordstrom, get a massage/nails done, or grab chips & margaritas with friends. These days, I roam the aisles of Target (pre-corona virus), soak in the tub at home and curl up on the couch with my husband and watch Netflix. .
.
But I am always down to learn new ways to relax! What’s your go-to?
