Summer Fashion Favorites

August 7, 2017

Happy Monday, friends! We are recovering from another busy weekend and I have officially torn our house apart trying to go through our house and purge! Does anyone else do that right before school starts? I feel like the fall and holiday seasons are going to be insanely busy this year and I am trying to get it all knocked out before then. For some, summer is coming to an end, but for those of us in the south, we still have two to three more months of summer weather. Summer fashion is so much fun! I love that you can wear frilly dresses, white, bright colors, tanks, shorts, skirts, hats, sandals and the list goes on. I have been really excited to share this post with some of my favorite summer fashion staples that I purchased this year! These are things I have worn many times and have absolutely loved!

Friday Favorites

August 4, 2017

Hey guys! Happy Friday!! So, it has been a while since I have written a Friday Favorites post, but I thought it would be fun to share some with you today! I know you guys are so tired of hearing about the #nsale and I promise you won’t for much longer because it is almost over. I feel equally happy and sad about that. Happy that my wallet won’t be tempted any longer, and sad that the deals with come to an end. Does anyone else feel the same way? Looking for a friend, here…

So, we will be doing a lot of celebrating this weekend because my nephew’s birthday party is this weekend and we will also be celebrating my birthday this weekend as a family! I am feeling very mixed emotions over my last year in my twenties, guys. It’s getting real up in here…real old. Oldie, but goodie, right? Okay, I’m done. On to the good stuff.

Quick and Easy Lemon Pasta with Chicken Recipe

August 2, 2017

School starts in less than three weeks, so we have been testing out a few new recipes that will be great leftover to pack in the kid’s school lunches the next day! Last night, (you may have seen on my insta-stories) we tried a recipe from Down Home with the Neelys with a couple of minor changes! This quick and easy lemon pasta with chicken recipe was delicious! Our family is a big fan of any type of pasta. Best of all? It is so easy and quick to whip up and everyone is full and happy by the end of the night! This recipe made plenty for the four of us and we have enough leftovers for the entire family to enjoy for lunch today, as well. In other words, it is a major win for us!

Mommy And Me #NSALE Fashion

July 31, 2017

Happy Monday, friends! Did you see my mommy and me fashion post last night on IG? Lately, I’ve had a thing for matching Sophie. It started one day when I realized we were wearing a similar outfit and got so many compliments on our “matching” clothes. I thought it was so funny because it was a complete accident. I saw how excited and special it made Sophie feel, so since then, I have enjoyed trying to find clothes that are similar so that we can match and take “pit-ures.” Sophie girl loves to take photos with me, now! It used to be a struggle, but now she cries if I am taking them of anything else without her. haha Ohhh the joys of being a mom blogger. I snagged this adorable skirt about a month ago when it was on super sale (I think it is still on sale)! I bought it for under $30! I also got this top on sale a while back, too! My MIL bought Sophie this adorable little skort from Khols that actually has another matching top, but we paired it with a white tank to match mine for church on Sunday. I loved it. Let’s just say we were feeling a little ruffly.

Back to School Gear for Kids

July 28, 2017

It’s hard to believe that it is already time to talk about going back to school! I can’t believe how fast the summer has flown by. We are excited about the new school year, but the feelings are very bittersweet. My Sophie girl will be going to 2K two days a week and Camp will be heading into 3K. I am excited about the extra time that it will allow me to get some work done during the week, but I always miss them when they are away. It was dogwood for Hampton last year, and I am praying big blessing for both of them this year. I can’t wait to watch them learn, grow and get so excited to show me what they made or colored every day! Those moments were so fun for us last year, and I can’t wait for Sophie to experience school for the first time.

Mommy Motivation + #NSALE Athleisure Picks

July 26, 2017

Hey moms! I wanted to talk specifically to you today about a little thing called motivation. Since having Weston, I have really struggled to get motivated. Everyone told me that the third baby is the one that gets you – they were right! This third one has been a lot more difficult in many ways – not the baby, but my body, pregnancy and postpartum. The weight has not come of like it did with the other two, but I think a big reason for that is the simple fact that I have not worked out like I did the other two times. So, I want to encourage you while I try to encourage myself to get motivated and do something about it!

15 Books to Read Before the End of the Summer

July 25, 2017

I have not had as much time to read lately as I would like to, but reading still remains my favorite past time. I have been getting lots of questions about what I’m reading and what’s on my reading list, so I thought it would be fun to share that with y’all today. If I had more time to read right now, these are the books that would be at the top of my list to read before the summer ends. In fact, I am about half way through these first two books right now and they are so good! …

How to Maintain Peace at Home with Young Children

July 24, 2017

Since having Weston, and then moving a week after that, I feel like our lives have literally been turned upside down. We have had a lot of good days, but we’ve also had a lot of bad ones. Hampton is still having major sleep issues – meaning he doesn’t sleep. Ever. Weston is also not sleeping. Ryan has been traveling a lot. The list goes on and on. Life is anything but easy right now and I’ve honestly been a little down about it. One thing I keep coming back to in my readings is the word peace. Peace is not an easy state to maintain, but it is something worth fighting for and working hard to get to. As I continue to work hard to create peace in our home for my husband, our children and our marriage, I wanted to share some ideas that I have been bouncing around.

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Purchases

July 21, 2017

Happy Nordstrom Anniversary Sale Day! The sale is finally live to the public and I am so excited about all of the restocks! I want to preface this post by saying I purchased a lot of things at the sale, but I am not keeping it all. I will return probably half of this. The store I went to did not have many of the things I wanted online, and because Nordstrom offers free returns, I went ahead and purchased online and will try it on at home, then decide what to keep and what to return. This year, I was shopping mainly for basics: jeans, tees, cardigans, boots and pajamas (I desperately need some new ones). I like to buy staples and not buy too many trendy pieces. Although, I am sure I will keep a couple of the trendy tops to enjoy throughout the year. So, here are my purchases and my absolute favorite things from the sale!
