Fashion Friday

workout wear
YEA!!  It’s Friday!  So excited for the weekend!  I haven’t done a Fashion Friday post in such a long time!  (You can see past Fashion Friday posts here.)  But I found some really fun things at the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale and have to share them with you!  The sale goes public today and it’s a good one this year.  I snapped this picture above a few days ago to share with you my typical wardrobe these days.  Honestly I have made a bad habit of living in workout clothes.  I exercise in the morning and then get busy and run around in gym clothes all day.  Now that things have settled down and our new house isn’t taking so much of my time I’m trying to make more of an effort to actually get dressed in something cute for the day!  You’d think that would be an easy thing..  :) Continue reading “Fashion Friday”

Letting the dishes wait

insta flowers_edited-1
I had something planned to post today but my kids had other plans for me.  Funny how that happens often.  Especially in the summer.  :)  I was cuddled up on the couch with my 11 year old tonight thinking about how quickly time is going by with her.  She’s such a mini grown up these days.  It was getting late – almost her bedtime and she wanted me to sit with her a few minutes longer.  My mind started racing.. I still need to clean the kitchen.. clean up Kole’s bath mess.. switch the laundry.. edit my pictures.. and then I stopped myself.  And just sat with her for another thirty minutes.  Watching TV and laughing and talking.

Organized Medicine Cupboard

Happy Wednesday!  I hope you all had a nice 4th!  We are back from Utah and had such a fun trip (hoping to share a few pics soon).  I’m slowly trying to re-engage and get on top of things around my house.  Lots of laundry and food prep and cleaning!  It always takes me a few days after a family trip to recover.  Sometimes I feel like I need a vacation to recover from our vacation!  That’s why I call travel with kids “family trips” and not vacations.  While they are fun, you often come home more tired than you were before you left.  :) Continue reading “Organized Medicine Cupboard”

Mom’s new outdoor decor

mom-and-dad
I hope you’re all enjoying your summer so far!  We are having a fantastic week at our #1 getaway.  A place where food is bought and cooked for me, babysitting is readily available, my kids are forever content and everything in sight is a walk down memory lane.  Mom’s house.  Ahhh.  Love it here!  Isn’t my parent’s home beautiful!?  It’s just as cozy and welcoming on the inside as it is the outside.  We spend a week here every summer and aside from the dreadful heat (San Diego weather has spoiled us!) we love everything about our time here.  Yesterday my parents celebrated their 41st wedding anniversary.  41 years!

Fun 4th of July ideas!

pretzel-hugs-for-the-4th-of-july
It’s the 4th of July this weekend!  So excited.  We have fun plans with family and I can’t wait to be together with everyone!  I made some 4th of July Pretzel Hugs a couple of weeks ago to get us in the mood.  Same Pretzel Hugs I’ve made for Christmas and Valentines Day for years.  I just switch out the m&m color.  Now there’s a versatile holiday treat!  :)  **Picture sources: scale is from Nordstroms – I can’t find it there anymore but their other home decor is adorable! Rolling pin is from Anthropologie, cake stand is from World Market – looks like they only have ivory left (kind of want this marble/wood stand too!). Continue reading “Fun 4th of July ideas!”

Girls’ bathroom decor

pottery-barn-bathroom-rugs
Hello friends!  Sorry about the crickets chirping on the blog last week!  Things were a bit crazy around here finishing up the school year but I’m happy to report we made it!  Today was our first official day of summer and it was WONDERFUL.  We slept in until 7:45, didn’t get out of pajamas until around 11:00, played at the park, swam in the pool, take out for dinner.  I loved every minute of it.  I am being really selfish this week and keeping my kids all to myself.  No playdates or get togethers.  We love them, but there is plenty of time for that and more than anything I have been craving some time with just me and my three kiddos.  We have a lot of fun together when we don’t have to be anywhere doing anything other than what we want.  Imagine that.  :)

Anyway!  Lots of time for future summer ramblings!  This post is supposed to be about a touch of decor I added to my girls’ bathroom so I guess it’s time I steer back on track.  So here you have it.  A touch of decor I added to my girls’ bathroom.  See.  I can stick to the point.  :)

Final countdown!

white roses
Happy Thursday everyone!  Week is almost over and we will be down to just one more week of school left!  I’m so excited I can hardly stand it.  We are limping across the finish line around here.  I have so many fun things to share and haven’t had much time for posting lately so here are a few pics I snapped with my phone quick (some I’ve shared on Instagram).   My roses are blooming!  So fun seeing everything we planted last year popping up and looking so pretty.
