I told myself that 2026 would be the year I would I told myself that 2026 would be the year I would get ‘me’ back and I suppose I have been on a mission! ❤️‍🔥

I’ve had this Anberlin tattoo floating around in my brain for yearsss. Finally talked through it with a friend, shared my ideas with @alexandratattoo , and she made them all come to ✨LIFE!✨ Had the best time enjoying several hours of girl talk, good music, and tattoo therapy with her - truly it is therapy and she is the best of the best!!!

I’m not sure I could ever put into words what Anberlin’s music has meant to me over the years. If you feel that way about music in any capacity - you get it. It’s definitely one of those ‘if you know, you know’ things. My Dad was a musician and he certainly passed that feeling down to me. Love that I carry that with me! 

And now I get to carry pieces of my favorite band with me. 🖤🎶
Happy birthday to my SEVEN year old tiny bebe Cohe Happy birthday to my SEVEN year old tiny bebe Cohen! He rolled his eyes at me when I said it’s crazy that he went from 6…to 7! If you know you know. 

Cohen is so sweet, kind, helpful, and smart. He loves building hot wheels tracks, setting up play areas for his little brothers, swimming, NASCAR, baseball, and never sitting still or being quiet… ever. 😆 

I’m so thankful God chose me to be his mom! I love you Cohen!! Happy birthday!!
It was a hot one at Bristol today but we had fun! It was a hot one at Bristol today but we had fun! 🏁

I have the MOST FUN any time I’m in front of Michelle’s camera. She is so fun to hang out with and it ends up being the best girl time + hair and makeup! Y’all know I have 4 kids and I work from home.. I don’t get to feel fancy very often! If you like laughing until your cheeks hurt (your face cheeks) and feeling 🔥 - book a shoot with her! 10/10 highly recommend.

Playing Catch Up..

As you can see (and if you can’t, you’d better click over!) I finally gave this space a much needed new look! I know some of you ladies out there keep the same blog themes forever, but I just get so bored. To the point where I don’t even want to write. The design aspect of blogging was kind of number one on my list for a long, long time. I never really had a “category” when I started blogging and designing was both a hobby and a stress relief that I relied on to make my blog appealing to others (in my eyes). Nowadays, I don’t want to change my blog like I change my underwear.. ya know.. but I do just about go crazy looking at the same ol’ thing for months at a time. SO, yeah.. that had a small part in my absence! Bad excuse, but it wasn’t the only reason so try not judge me.

I’m still working ridiculous hours at work. And okay, they’re not that ridiculous. The problem is that I never know when I will get to go home because I literally don’t and wont ever get done. I’m currently responsible for three tasks at work and the 3rd one is a full time job in and of itself. So when I start it around 4pm I feel very frustrated because no matter how early I go into work I never even come close to fulfilling my responsibilities. And if someone isn’t able to help me that day then there is literally no way I will even make it to half way done, spilling over into the next day and the next. Worse? Before they decided to adjust some things- I made a very similar paycheck and worked 10 to 7pm twice a week and 10 to 3pm most other days. Ha! Now I work 8 to 8:30pm some days. Frustrating.

I will be putting up an outfit post featuring so pretty Blowfish shoes tomorrow, emailing lovely ladies about sponsorships and possible We Married Young candidacy (if you know/are a candidate – email me!), getting together a style post for Posh Locket (pretty jewelry!), sharing Christmas decor photos, Gatlinburg photos, and iPhone Pieces of The Days! Whew! Obviously wont all make it on the blog tomorrow but stay tuned!
