Happy Wednesday, Friends! I’m finally recovered from Thanksgiving, and I’m ready to tackle the next couple of weeks. I’m decorating for Christmas this weekend (I slowly started when my family was in town), and next week is going to be full of fun as I celebrate my bestie’s wedding. All the fun and excitement starts next Wednesday – so my…

Weekend Edit: Thanksgiving Recap
Happy Tuesday, friends! I know I don’t normally blog on Tuesdays, but I was exhausted yesterday, so I gave myself a bit of extra time back in my day. I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving. I’ve shared a bit about this before, but when Aaron and I got married, we decided to switch off the major holidays (Thanksgiving…
Thanksgiving 2022: 5 Things I’m Thankful For This Year
Happy Wednesday, friends! Because it’s a holiday week, this will be my last post so I can spend some time with my parents who will in town. I’ll be back to regularly scheduled programming on Monday.

Thanksgiving pre-game + 3 Easy Thanksgiving Appetizers
Happy Monday, friends. I’m actually writing this Sunday evening because Monday (today) will be fast and furious. The house is quiet, I’ve got a candle going – and the vibe right now is immaculate.

Friday Favorites – Week Before Thanksgiving
Happy Friday, friends! I’m on a deadline today, but in the spirit of Wednesday’s post – I’ve made some plans to meet some of my colleagues for lunch today.

Combatting Work + Life Burnout + A White Chicken Chili Recipe
It’s been awhile since I’ve done a “Working Wednesdays” post, so I figured it was about time. And, this post will apply to you whether you are in the working world – or not. You all know that in March 2020 (just like everyone else) I began working from home. My makeshift home office was at my dining room table…

Happy Monday, friends! I hope you had a wonderful weekend. I’m sitting here at my desk this morning, with my cup of coffee. I’m still waiting on my holiday Nespresso order to arrive because I tried some of their new holiday flavors. Our weekend was filled with a good mix of busy – and some relaxation. So, why don’t I…
Friday Favorites Nutcracker Market Edition
Happy Friday, friends! We changed up our weekend plans a bit in the effort to slow down and embrace some of the items that we need to tackle on our to-do list. We were supposed to be headed to Waco for the Baylor game this weekend, but the more we looked at our schedules – and the more we thought…
Finding out + The First Trimester
Aaron and I have been feeling the love and excitement over our exciting announcement. We kept this secret to ourselves for about eight weeks, with the exception of two of our very best friends. And, around eight weeks, we started slowly telling our family. Once we had our 12-week appointment, we started telling our friends. It’s been so nice to…
A Day in the Life: Work Event Edition + Weekend Fun
Happy Monday, Friends. We had ourselves quite the weekend over here. I’m still suffering through the time change, and if I’m being honest, I don’t love that it gets dark out earlier. So, I’m starting my Monday off a bit tired. I’ll do a whole blog on my first trimester at some point this week, but I’ve been relatively okay…
