Do you know your “WHY”? That thing you have inside of you that gets you out of bed in the morning, that causes your attention and efforts to manifest in the way they do? I’m not necessarily talking about purpose here, although that plays a part in it, but knowing your “why” can set you free from the mundane, and reignite the flame to your passions. Today I’m sharing my “WHY”, and how I came to find it… again!
Hello Friends! I’ve been doing a lot of thinking lately. Well more processing. Thinking about my blog, why I blog, what I want to share. I’ve told you how in the past I’ve felt like I needed to keep things more professional while building my brand, but in an effort to be more candid I want to start sharing more lifestyle things as well. In all my processing, I’ve had so many thoughts swirling around in my head, well words actually. Things I really want to share, and sometimes they don’t always fit into a neat, categorized blog post, or even a blog title for that matter. I know I’ve done round ups in the past on furniture or decor I’m loving for that season, but there are so many things that catch my eye, or that I love during certain seasons, heck even weeks for that matter. So I decided to start rounding up the things I’m currently loving, and share them in one big post. They might include some home decor, some beauty products, a tv show, a magazine article, an outfit, or just an article of clothing. You get the idea! So today I’m kicking things off with my first “Currently Loving” post.
It’s always a delight to see how they choose to feature our home in magazine articles. Which photos they will chose, what details they will highlight. Of course the 2 page spread above is one of my most favorite views in our home. However, I think you’ll agree with me, when I turned the page to see the photo below, I squealed with delight to see a candid shot of me and my daughter made the feature!
Since it’s Black Friday, (which this year seemed to turn into an all week event?), I wanted to share some of things I have my eye on for gifts this year. Let’s be honest, whenever I do a little Christmas shopping I always end up throwing a thing or three in my cart for me. Since I have no desire to leave my house and brave the crowds, my goal is take advantage of some of the online sales this weekend. So this years gift guide is brought to you by all the things that have caught my eye online.
Hi Friends!!
I have some pretty exciting news to share with you today. Umm sort of like, pinch me, dream come true kind of news. I feel like I’ve been keeping this secret for ever! Well for 1 year, and now I can share it with you and I’m so excited!!
the hubby and I enjoyed a little weekend getaway. Honestly I was so smitten with this cute little coastal are we visited, I just had to share some of my favorite things with you 😉
I feel like this story began so long ago that it needs a grand beginning like “A long long time ago…”, insert my 8 yr old son rolling his eyes at my cheesy Star Wars impression, but it’s true, this story began long before we brought her home. We got a puppy! Come hear all about how we came to the decision, how I let go of the need to have a perfectly kept house, and the great pumpkin fiasco!
I remember stressing myself out to no end as a new wife, trying to make every dinner party, every get-together PERFECT. It was ugly friends. The list goes on and on, but one of the most important things I learned was that the people sitting around my table were more important than a perfectly put together place setting. That hosting and burn out do not go hand in hand. And sometimes the simplest gatherings are the most fulfilling. To read more and enter a fun giveaway, visit the blog for all the details.
Have been contemplating taking a leap in the creative field? Maybe it is to start your own blog? Maybe you want a booth at a local consignment shop, or an Etsy shop? Whatever that dream is, don’t for one second think there isn’t room for you. It’s a lie. There is room for you too! I’m reminded that ….
