Target Christmas Decor

October 26, 2020

It’s the most wonderful time of the year! Target just released their Christmas decor and it is so good! You guys know how much I love fall, but I also love the holidays. Growing up, my mom always made the holidays so special for us and the season was full of traditions. Ryan and I have created our own traditions with our four children that we look forward to every year, now. One of them is decorating on November 1st. I know this is a “no-no” for some, but the way I look at it is, I do not host Thanksgiving and I like to enjoy the Christmas decor for more that one month (or less than) because it is a lot of work. haha

I rounded up some of my favorites from this year’s Target Christmas decor (above). I love that they included a mixture of modern, traditional and vintage this year.

Christmas Outfit Ideas

December 12, 2018

I love coming up with cute Christmas outfit ideas for different occasions, but this year was a small challenge trying to dress the bump and still feel festive. I found some really beautiful maternity and non-maternity options for y’all and I hope this is helpful! As always, thank you for shopping through my links. I earn a small commission when you do and it helps keep this space going and allows me to continue putting these outfits together for y’all! On to the first outfit:

Stocking Stuffers for the Family

November 19, 2018

Stocking stuffers are possibly my favorite gifts to buy for Christmas! I love to get random but useful things for my family, or sneak big (little) surprises into their stockings so that just when they things they are finished opening gifts, there is still a big surprise waiting for them. I am sharing ideas for the entire family below, but be sure to check back because I am always finding more and adding to these guides! I hope you find some great goodies for the people you love most!

Festive Holiday Skirt and Pink Sweater

December 22, 2017

I don’t know about you, but I love festive holiday fashion. It is so fun to play around with different colors and textures this time of year. I love all things cozy and comfy! I also like to add a pop of color when I can. When I first saw this sweater in the store, I was instantly attracted to it. It is the perfect shade of bubblegum pink and it is so soft. This skirt is something I am not typically drawn to as a SAHM, but when I saw the colors, I had to have it. It will literally go with anything! Hunter green, mustard yellow, red, pink, black, etc. There are so many beautiful colors in this skirt that make is so festive and beautiful. I love that I can pair so many colors and styles with it. Sweaters, blouses and even the right tee with a cardigan would be so gorgeous!

Christmas 2016

January 2, 2017

I’m not sure if you noticed, but I took a whole week off of blogging/working for the first time since I started over 4 years ago. To say it was needed would be the understatement of the century. Ryan had the whole week off, too and we enjoyed every minute of it. I must say, it did give me a chance to miss writing and taking photos and playing on social media and of course, all of you! It made me so thankful for this community and the friendships I have made with some of you through this. I am playing a serious game of catch up and going through hundreds of emails today, but it was all so worth the break. We were lazy and it was amazing. I haven’t seen our kids so happy in long time and it kind of made me reevaluate things a little bit, but that’s another story for another time. I want to catch you all up on our Christmas!

It’s Friday and Christmas is only 2 days away!! Who’s ready? We have had a CRAZY week leading up to Christmas.

My Christmas Wish List

December 13, 2016

I can’t believe we are less than 2 weeks away from Christmas, and I really can’t believe how much more shopping I’ve got to do. Luckily, I have only easy people to buy for now. I got all the tough ones (meaning guys) out of the way first this year which was nice! Everyone has been asking me what I want for Christmas this year and I honestly do not NEED a thing, but I WANT all the things. So, I have put together a little wish list! I love reading what is on other people’s wish lists and I have put together a few of the things I’ve been eyeing. Most of these wants are pretty realistic and some are even downright practical! So, if you see my husband, tell him to read this one! 😉

5 Books To Read This Holiday Season

December 6, 2016

I love to read, but I haven’t had a lot of time to dive into books this year. With the arrival of our new baby and moving, I feel like I won’t have a lot of time to read before the new year, but I am going to really put forth effort. It truly is my favorite pastime and I have always enjoyed reading. Here are a few holiday-related and non-holiday books to add to your reading calendar this month!
