Let's Look: June 2023

 Happy Wednesday! Today I'm linking up with Shay and Erika for the JUNE edition of Let's Look! 

In January, we LOOKED at Scheduling/Organizing.

In February, we LOOKED at What's In Our Medicine Cabinets. 

In March, we LOOKED at our All Time Favorite Amazon Finds. 

In April, we LOOKED at our Biggest Pet Peeves. 

In May, we LOOKED at our Morning Routines. 

Today, we're "looking" at...

OUR BEST TRAVEL TIPS! I love to travel, and I pretty much do the same things whether I'm traveling by car or plane- and later this year I'll be traveling by boat for the first time! (What are your best cruise tips??? I'm nervous!)

I ALWAYS have a big bag filled with my essentials. 

I usually carry my biggest Barrington tote. In this bag I have my...

-chargers

-AirPods

-lip balm/gloss

-nail file

-book or Kindle

-medicine

-snacks/candy/gum

-blanket or cardigan

-wallet

PACKING CUBES! 

If I'm traveling with my big rolling suitcase, I definitely have my packing cubes! I need to get better about using them just in a duffle too. I have these from Amazon! 

Plan out your outfits ahead of time and try on everything complete with shoes, jewelry, and other accessories. 

I try to pack a good amount of nice, casual, and lounge/athleisure outfits. I'm definitely an over-packer, too. I'd rather have too much than not enough, though I do try to keep shoes and jewelry simple. I pack accessories that will go with pretty much everything! 

Go with the flow! 

This is something I'm not very good at, but I try really hard😂. I try to tell myself that no matter what, great memories will be made, and I'll have fun no matter what. 

TAKE THE PICTURES!! 

I know people are always saying "put your phone down and live in the moment," BUT if you take tons of pictures, you'll be so thankful days, weeks, months, and years down the road. 

Have a great Wednesday! Where are you traveling to this Summer??

Friday Favorites {12.20.24}

 Happy Friday, friends!! And Merry Christmas Eve Eve Eve Eve Eve- that's a thing, right??😂 I'm linking up with Erika and Andrea today to share some faves from the week, and then I will be off for the holidays! My plan is to see y'all back here on January 13! For some food faves.... I grabbed the raspberry kringle at Aldi the other day after seeing so many positive reviews on it. It is really good!! I had some with a cup of coffee a couple times this week! Last night, Caleb made lasagna soup- YUM. Definitely a favorite of mine lately! A great way to end the night.... Caleb made me a cosmopolitan the other night. Yum! I am really going to miss this sight.... This is my favorite time of year for sure! Twinkly lights and candle light = the BEST. On my drive home from work yesterday.... This was a fun little surprise. I don't remember this from last year! I hope you all have a great weekend and a very Merry Christmas and a Happy Holiday! However, whatever, whenever, whereve...

Friday Favorites {10.18.24}

 Happy Friday!! I hope you all had a great week! I'm linking up with Erika and Andrea today to share some faves from my week. Well guess what is back tonight?? NEW Hallmark Christmas movies!! Ummm YAY!! I'm most excited about Confessions of a Christmas Letter (Angela from The Office is starring in that one!) and Holiday Touchdown: A Chiefs Love Story! For some foodie faves... This right here. It made my week. I'm obsessed with the tuna from Beagle Bagel. It's amazing. I can never say it enough! I made egg drop soup for the lunch the other day, and it was really good! It's always been my favorite soup from Chinese buffets. I didn't feel great and wanted a soup...luckily I had all the ingredients. I used this recipe here. The weather this week was absolute perfection.  I mean, it was really, really cool. And it was fabulous. So, that means.... I broke out a sweater and my Sorel booties that I love so much! I always forget how good the Bible app is. I opened it up...

Let's Look: September 2024

 Hey, friends! I hope you are having a great week so far! Today is the September edition of Let's Look. But before I get into that, I want to talk a bit about today, September 11. Today is the 23rd anniversary of the attacks on 9/11. I was only one year old when this happened, so I obviously do not remember where I was or what I was doing or anything from this day. All I know is because of the people who continue to honor to victims and the heroes of this day. I have had the honor of visiting the memorial and museum in NYC twice now, and both times I have been were such an incredible experience. Visiting there is heavy. It is sad. It's informative. It's also beautiful to see how our country came together in such an awful time. I love this picture that I took on my last visit. The leaves in the picture are from a tree that survived everything from that day 23 years ago. It was transported to a greenhouse for a while, but it was eventually moved back, and I loved that I could...
