Hot Springs {Part Three}

 Happy Thursday! Today I am sharing my third and final part of our Hot Springs trip!

Monday, December 22


We started our last day off with breakfast at The Pancake Shop. My mom and step dad ate here back in the summer, and it was also highly recommended by a family friend of Caleb's.




After we ate, we went to the Hot Springs Mountain Tower. I did not love being so high up- I am usually not afraid of heights but for some reason I didn't love this one. It was pretty neat, though- just away from the windows 😉.



We then made our way to find a waterfall.....I a NOT a hiker but somehow got roped into a hike for this. Once we got back to the car, we saw that there was a shortcut to the waterfall 🙃. Oh well.

















Later that day, we went to Garvan Woodland Gardens for the Christmas lights and to see the famous chapel there. It was BEAUTIFUL. Such a fun evening!

Tuesday, December 23

Tuesday morning, we all got up pretty early to all head home.




Caleb and I made a detour to go to Oxford for a bit. We ate at one of my fave's- Ajax on the Square! We did a little shopping before heading home.

We had such a great trip, and I loved sharing it with you all! Have a great Thursday!

    Your family is so adorable! I love the pics of you and your son, or you and your husband. I've been to that chapel! It's in Eureka Springs, right? I went to a wedding there many years ago when my guys were all in elementary school. It was amazing! I love all the nighttime pictures with the lights. This trip has brought back so many great memories for me!

    What a neat place to go hiking, especially the unusual chapel. The restaurant looks like a big rip-off, high prices for what amounts to a plate of starch.

      The chapel is gorgeous- the pictures truly don’t do it justice!

Let's Look: January 2026

 Happy Wednesday!! Let's Look is one of my very favorite blog link ups and after not doing it last year, I am ready for it in 2026! I am linking up with Shay and Erika for this monthly series! Today, we are LOOKING at..... THINGS WE OUTSOURCE WITHOUT REGRET. Ok, there are so many things you can outsource that I just would rather do myself. I love to grocery shop. I think I would be weirded out by someone else doing my laundry. A house keeper is just not something we currently need or really want. BUT, there are occasions when outsourcing is just what needs to be done. Grocery Delivery/Pickup We don't do this often, but when we do it's pretty nice. That being said, I am usually ready to get back in the grocery store myself! Food Delivery This is another one we do not do often, but a Wednesday free delivery from Wingstop has sucked me in a few times 😂. And of course, pizza delivery is always nice! Plus, we can get food delivered to the school I work out, so that's nice e...

Friday Favorites {6.6.25}

 Happy Friday, friends!! How was your week? One of my summer classes started this week, so I have been getting back into a bit of a routine which is nice! As always, I am linking up with Erika and Andrea to share some faves from the week.  How cute is our new wreath sash?? My mom got it for us, and I am obsessed! Lots of food faves this week.... Another salsa I am now obsessed with! I found this at Aldi, and y'all it is SO good! I used it in a recipe, but I am definitely going to get another jar to eat for a snack or with lunch or dinner! Now for a Tik Tok "recipe". I used quotations, because it's really just a chop/open a can and throw together situation. Corn, black beans, pinto beans, onion, tomato, cilantro. I ate it with tortilla chips for lunch this week. It was so good! Next time, I would add more tomato and use less onion (maybe even no onion at all), and I should have chopped up the cilantro a little better! I also squeezed in some lime juice and added salt a...

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...
