welcome to my creative and happy space. i hope you love it all!
this upcoming week, i have a supplier dinner, wade has a holiday party, and we’re so excited for holiday festivities with friends all of next weekend. i have a ton of christmas shopping to finally finish, for the kids and friends. a few things i’m eyeing are in my links.
these cookies are my absolute favorite. my mom has made them every year for the holidays, and it doesn’t feel like the holidays without them.
hi! another weekend in the books, and i can appropriately say my family is living for the holidays. we love a good excuse for a cookie, and we all are incredibly content snuggling into the blankets on the couch.
variations of this outfit have been on repeat this weekend, and i intend to wear all winter.
so, i caved in on this swoon worthy sweater, and i’m so so happy i did. it is the coziest and warmest, but functional. i feel so chic every time i throw it on or over my shoulders.
the weather is really letting me live my best fall life, and i might feel basic, but i’m living for it. give me all of the cozy sweaters, sneakers, and layers possible. i’m also getting ready for my first 10k since my kids were born, and this is my favorite time to run, so i am loving it all.
i’m ready for fall, and excited to finally start dressing for it. i’ve gone through so many old things and made lots of room for some new exciting things.
So that’s where I’ve been - taking a quiet moment to give myself credit for the past two years, and the chaos of the past six months. I’ve been listening to my body tell me to slow down and focus on one thing at a time, and to be proud of everything I’ve done this year.
we’ve been living our best summer lives, popping into and out of the pool, stalking the ice cream truck, eating all of the pizza, going on long walks and finding all of the coffee.
this week was a bit crazy in preparing for her birthday, and managing our day to day lives. work has been busy, but it’s been exciting to dive back into it and feel out my footing again. adding to the anticipation of maya’s birthday weekend, organizing and planning, i ended up with a tick bite, spending an afternoon at urgent care. this has made me fully lean into my life as a hat lady, using any opportunity to wear my favorite summer hats while i still can.
this week finally felt like a new normal. both babes were back at school all week, we had no travel plans this weekend, a few plans with friends and lots of laying low. it was a dream.
happy happy friday! i cannot believe it’s already friday and another week is done. this was my first full week back to work, albeit part time. i still cannot believe i’m back to work, but it has felt so good. i’ve loved getting dressed, getting organized, putting everyone on a routine, it really is my happy place.
