Let's Look: January 2024

 

It's the first "Let's Look" of 2024!! This is by far my favorite link up that I join- mainly because I'm super nosy and like "looking" into other people's lives 😂. So, today I'm joining Shay and Erika to "look" at....

HOW WE CLEAN OUR CLOSETS.

I might be slightly embarrassed to share these pictures with you today. But I mostly don't care 🤷🏼. I know I'm not the only person ever with a messy closet, right?? Our closet is really the only space that I allow to "pile up" and take the back burner when it comes to cleaning up/being organized/decluttering/etc. I guess I'm a little lazy when it comes to my closet. I think it's ok to have at least one spot like that....mmkay let's get into it. 

Here is a look at our closet post Christmas and post vacay. It's rough. 

We share this space, and though it isn't ideal, it works. For the most part. Maybe. I may the only one who contributes to the mess. Ok, I am the only one. Oops. My purse fell over, and I didn't pick it up. Couldn't tell you why I didn't take the two seconds to do that 😂.

Another view. Like why do I have a pair of shoes partly in their box, but not all the way? Idk. And the sweatshirt on the floor??? (And yes, I keep every single shoe box. Easy organization!)

All of my jewelry has a "home." A lot of that jewelry is not in it's home in this picture- likely because it was still packed in my suitcase two days after we got home from our trip. Ha! And in this pic, you'll also see Caleb's section for his clothes. See, he keeps his space organized. 

The next day, I took a few minutes to "pick up" and organize a little. And unpack that suitcase. 

Definitely not perfect, but we could at least step inside the room. I am trying real hard to pick up every couple of days, so it doesn't get extremely out of hand. It's a work in progress! 

Things are....somewhat.....neater. It's definitely been better. Maybe I'll work on that soon!

And the jewelry is back in it's home. I also have an over the door organizer for more jewelry, so everything on "display" are the pieces I reach for daily! 

And I will be completely honest with you....my closet is already just about back to looking like the first three pictures..whoops! Soooo, any tips for me 😂??

Have a very happy Wednesday!! Thanks for stopping by!

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...
