Life Lately.

 

I'm back!! Happy 2024, everyone! I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas Holiday with your loved ones! I thought today would be a great day to share what we've been up to since my last blog post in December. I am also linking up with Holly and Sarah for Hello Monday! 

We attended our Christmas Eve service at our church back in Madison. In case I haven't mentioned it a time or two, this is my very favorite Christmas tradition! 

Lots of sweet little moments with my favorite little boy.

Saw our fav Christmas lights. 

More family time! 

Day after Christmas fun...

We came back to Starkville on this day. Caleb had to work and I did lots and lots of laundry! 

I found the cutest plastic plates and bowls at Walmart for FIFTY cents!! 

Got some pretty new wall art from my mom for Christmas! These are by MK Decker- a local artist. Caleb and I have both in these 3 cities, in this order. 

Mimi and Libbey gifted us some more Estelle! (I may need more cabinet space if I want any more😂)

I got a new curling iron for Christmas, and my curls lasted a looong time!! 

We packed up and headed somewhere WARM!! More on that to come later! 

I love these little word searches to find my words of the year. Somehow they always end up being PERFECT! The words I found for this year are freedom, growth, abundance. (And if you aren't following @thefancyashley on IG, you should be!)

I got some new Lake pjs, and I'm in love with them! These are my very favorite pjs, they're so soft!- if you don't have a pair, treat yourself! I'm about 5'8.5" and I'm in a small/tall. I think these pants are supposed to be a bit cropped, but I'm fine with them being long. They only had tall left in this pattern, and it's the pattern I wanted 😂. (P.S. they are launching Valentine's patterns today!)

I live for these slow moments where I'm still in my pjs with a second cup of coffee at 12 o'clock! 

Well, that's what we've been up to lately! How is your 2024 going so far?

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...

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...

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...
