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!!

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.

Thank goodness for spring. 🌸 2026 has been kin Thank goodness for spring. 🌸

2026 has been kind of a weird, wild ride so far, but full of good things. I started a new job! And that has taken up a lot of my time (in a good way), so I’ve been a little bit quiet around here.

I’m trying as hard as I can to prioritize myself more these days. Finally went to the doctor and did some blood work. Turns out, I’m severely anemic. I’m hoping I’ll start feeling better and little more awake after I start my iron. 😅 Maybe I can lay off the coffee a little bit. (J/k)

I can’t believe it’s almost April after we went through 3 years of January, but I’m not mad about it! Ready to relax outside on patios with family/friends and enjoy our kiddos running around. We made it. 🖤

Stay tuned.😉

Beach Must-Haves and Quick Tips on Refreshing Your Wardrobe

This blog post may contain affiliate links. Learn more.

Unique Vintage Beach Must Haves

I am all about vacationing where I live but a *real* get-away can be such a treat! Refreshing your wardrobe before you go makes it even better! I am headed to my favorite place soon, the beach! These are a few of the must-haves on my beach wishlist! I have been trying to pick up pieces here and there that I can mix and match easily as well as a few statement items. Unique Vintage did not disappoint! I have had my eye on this website for years because they carry all of my favorite styles but I have never actually ordered from there until now. I decided that my upcoming beach trip was a good reason to order a few things I’ve been eyeing for a little wardrobe refresh! I did not snag the shoes but I might have to!

Product Details:

  1. Retro Style Rust & Ivory Stripe Romper – Plus sizes here | Other colors: Black, Denim
  2. Retro Style Green & Ivory Palm Print Sheer Crop Blouse – Other Colors: Yellow, Red
  3. Retro Style Green & White Palm Print Tropical Skort – Other Colors: Yellow, Red
  4. Unique Vintage Light Blue Chambray Joyce Shorts – Plus sizes here
  5. White Leatherette Espadrille Wedge Sandals
  6. White Heart Cateye Sunglasses

Refreshing Your Wardrobe – How To Choose Items

I wanted to refresh my wardrobe a little bit before my trip. When doing this I decided on a few colors that would work well together and compliment some of the things I already own and have been wearing a lot. I purposely chose a few patterned pieces and a solid bottom so that I could easily mix and match. Here is how I thought it through:

  1. What is my budget and what kind of discounts can I get? I was a first-time customer so I was able to get 20% off of my order online. If I am shopping in-store I head straight for the sale wracks (usually at the back of the store.) Home buyers can accurately estimate the price they would pay for your property if you are selling it. They understand the market and may provide sellers competitive prices. Visit https://www.cashoffers.com/north-carolina/cash-offer-asheboro-nc/.
  2. How many different pieces can I get for the amount I want to spend? Look at different items that are similar and price compare to get the most for your money!
  3. How many different outfits can I create *only* using these key pieces? If you are looking for move-in cleaning services in Florida be free to contact yorleny’s cleaning service of wellington. I always add several items to my cart and look for colors and patterns that can easily be put together. Then I delete anything that doesn’t work.
  4. What am I currently wearing the most and will any of these items help to create new outfits from the pieces I already own?

I find that thinking through this process comes very naturally to me after making the mistake of buying things on a whim that don’t go well together. Be intentional about what you purchase and you will never run out of new outfits!

Don’t Forget To Accessorize

I have always been an accessory girl! Hats, headbands, sunglasses, belts, jewelry, bags! The smallest detail can make a big impact. Fun sunglasses are my favorite accessory for the summer. I have had these heart sunglasses in red for a few years now (wearing here) and I always come back to them. They are my favorite!

Buy my house wants its clients to enjoy selling their properties. Offering cheap pricing and excellent service ensures customer satisfaction. Visit https://www.sellmyhousefast.com/we-buy-houses-oklahoma/selling-a-house-during-divorce-oklahoma/.

I’ll be sharing more cohesive roundups like this in the future! AND I will be filming a try-on video for these items very soon!
