Hey y'all! I hope your week is off to a great start! We officially moved out of our old house and into our new one last week (much more to come on that) so I unpacked all of my spring/summer wardrobe. After getting my closet setup, I was able to assess to what I'll need for this season and I am definitely looking for a flowy dress, shorts, new tanks, and accessories, always. I jumped on the Madewell website and of course, I found so many things I loved. I love shopping for clothes but shopping for clothes this time of year is my favorite. My wardrobe is pretty neutral during the fall/winter b ..read more

Hey y'all! Today's post is all about our home projects at the new house in Jacksonville. Honestly, this post is more for my brain than anything else but I think it's fun to share projects. I was in the middle of packing up the kitchen and I needed a break to organize my thoughts. First, let's take a moment for those beautiful azaleas in the photo above. That photo was taken recently when Josh stopped by the house. There are so many pretty azalea bushes in bloom there and I'm really excited to see the yard come to life this spring and summer. I've also noticed some buds at our current home and ..read more

  Hey y'all! I hope your week is off to a great start! I have a few *big* updates to share since my last post about our move.

  Hey y'all! I hope your week is off to a great start! I have been on a pretty strict spending freeze for the past month because moving is so expensive. There have been so many expenses to take care of that I definitely wasn't expecting! But, I did grab a few things online this past weekend to fill in some wardrobe gaps and prepare for warmer weather. It's going to really feel like spring towards the end of this week and I cannot wait. Bring on 80 degrees! Today, I'm sharing what I'm Currently Loving, including the items that I just added to my warm weather wardrobe. I ordered this tank ..read more

  Hey y'all! If you know me personally then this is old news but I wanted to write up a post to share about our move and answer some frequently asked questions. Also, we don't plan to do this again for a really, really long time so I thought it would be fun to document the process to look back on. Ok, first up: where and why? My husband was offered a job at the coast with a new company. He's in the safety field and accepted a new position in that field in brand new *to him* industry. He's really excited for this new challenge! Our ten-fifteen year plan was to move to the coast once the g ..read more

Happy Friday! I hope you've had a wonderful week! Today, I'm sharing my weekly round of five of my favorite things that I am currently loving and enjoying. 1.

  Hey y'all and Happy First Day of March! We are getting *so close* to springtime and that makes me so happy. Spring and summer are my favorite seasons! In celebration, today I'm sharing some of my favorite finds from the Madewell Spring Collection. I have my eye on so many items! This time of year is definitely my favorite time of shop.

I have owned this pair of sneakers for a couple of years and they are ..read more

  Happy Monday! I hope you had a great weekend! Today, I'm sharing a recap from our weekend trip to the High Country in the North Carolina mountains. We've been to this area many times and I recapped another weekend trip in this post. The beach is my favorite place to go but I do love to visit the mountains at least once or twice a year, especially during the fall. We typically make a trip to the High Country for my birthday and this past birthday was no exception. We always begin our High Country weekend in Boone. The day we arrived it was super rainy so it was a great day to find a go ..read more
