Hey friends! I'm back! And I've got a few random things to share. Imagine that... ;) one. Branson. It was SO much FUN! I'll be honest, I didn't have super high expectations...I just thought, it's Branson. But I was so wrong!!! The kids had the time of their lives--and I loved every minute of it too. Except for those minutes in the middle of the night where there was a toddler in our bed demanding YouTube videos. But more on that later--ha! I'll have a full trip post up next week, but here's a ...
Five Quick Things…
one. I L-O-V-E David Nail. That's a fact. And of course he didn't disappoint with his new album, Fighter. We've got it on repeat around these parts! two. If you're shopping the Nordstrom Anni Sale this morning, you might as well add this plaid blanket scarf to your cart right this minute. As much as I'm loving all things summer, this makes me SOOOO excited for FALL! three. My friend Katie sent me this yesterday and it made my day. Maybe my LIFE. And now I'm sharing it with you. You're ...
Favorite “Bigger Kid” Books
Our evening routine looks something like this. Chris bathes the kids while I clean up downstairs (and let's be honest, I might scroll through Instagram for two minutes without any interruptions. Hallelujah!) Then we each take a kid to get ready for bed. After teeth have been brushed, hair combed, and jammies put on--the kids and I head into Nash's room to read a few board books before bed. After we're done, Arden turns on Nash's white noise, turns off the light, and leaves me to sing to him for ...
F-I-V-E
one. Arden just got done with 4 days of fairy princess camp...and I'm pretty sure she thinks she's a real fairy now. I kind of think she is too... Oh, I love this girl... two. Thanks for all of the suggestions on Netflix series! We've officially ditched The Killing and moved on to Bloodline. When I saw my boyfriend Coach Taylor (aka Kyle Chandler) was in it, I was sold. And so far so good! three. Arden's birthday is just over a month away and we finally decided on a celebration. I was ...
Favorite Things Blogger Exchange
You didn't know you were going to get a full dose of blogger exchange recaps this week, did you?! Well I always enjoy seeing the gifts that people get...and hopefully you do too. It's kind of like the adult version of surprise eggs, you know? (And now I've mentioned surprise eggs in two consecutive blog posts...which is SCARY!) Anywho, when Sarah and Jess asked if I wanted to be part of a "favorite things" blogger exchange, I said: "Duh!" I've never been to an actual FT party, but I love the ...
Blogger Birthday Exchange
I've said this a million times, but my favorite part of blogging, and probably what has kept me doing it year after year, is the community. I've met so many amazing people in this little blogging world and I'm always excited to make a new blog friend. It might sound nerdy...but I can assure you, it's totally normal ;) Arden and I recently got to be a part of a fun little blogger birthday exchange put together by Liz at Chasin Mason. Even though Arden's birthday isn't until late summer, she said ...
