I finally put some of those frozen bananas to use in my banana bread! 😆 Who else has a freezer full of brown bananas? Can’t just be me.

Honestly I can’t believe a band tee didn’t mak Honestly I can’t believe a band tee didn’t make it into this mix. 🎶🤘🏻 But there’s a @drpepper t-shirt so that’s even better! I’ve been having so much fun lately remixing things I’ve had for years along with a few new pieces! 

Thrifting and finding a super good clearance deal = my favorite! I’m not really sure what my style is these days.. but I’m having fun playing around with it and feeling a little more like ME in what I’m wearing. Warped Tour heart, coffee shop soul vibes? ✨😆

I think sometime between becoming a mom, working, I think sometime between becoming a mom, working, keeping up with a house, and trying to take care of everyone else… I forgot to ask myself what I actually like.

So lately I’ve been paying attention.

The clothes I want to wear.

The hobbies I want to try.

The spaces I want to create.

The things that make me feel like myself.

Maybe this is exactly what your late 30s are for. Not becoming someone new.. but remembering who you are.✨

My littlest boys are 4️⃣!! Their only birthday My littlest boys are 4️⃣!! Their only birthday demand was that we get them a Sonic the hedgehog cake! 😆 

I still just sit and stare at them in disbelief sometimes.. my twin babies.. my last babies.. and somehow they’ve been here for 4 whole years. If you’re a twin mom, you know that the time passes different. The early stages are a blur in a way I don’t even know how to explain. It makes it all a bit more bittersweet.

I love you Bennett & Everett! 💙💙

Universal was a blast. I hadn’t been since I was Universal was a blast. I hadn’t been since I was a teenager and I only vaguely remembered a ride or two! There was so much to do for the littlest brothers and aside from being HOT, it was perfect. 

Everett was big mad at us for taking him on the SpiderMan ride and did not trust our judgement the rest of the time. 🤣 He LOVED the 1 Fish 2 Fish ride and wanted to ride that all day. 

Bennett on the other hand was all about the thrills and the Trollercoaster was his favorite. He said it was “Torrifying” but he made us all ride it with him multiple times.

I rode Velocicoaster with Nate, Landon, and Maile. And while I would do it again - for a moment I did think I might die. I only did that once. 🤣 Nate and Landon rode it multiple times. Hagrid’s was more my speed and Cohen agrees with me! 

I am a Disney girl at heart! But Disney doesn’t have a *real life* baby dinosaur that you can pet sooo there’s some competition. 😆

Every Day Life, What I Wore · September 25, 2011

Pink & Plaid.. and A Tip!

Today has been such a good day. Nate and I went over to his parent’s house for a yummy lunch, we strolled through the mall for a few minutes, and then headed to the movies to see a matinee of the Lion King in 3D. We enjoyed the movie so much. I’ve only seen one other 3D movie (Toy Story 3), but so far this is my favorite. I would say it has a lot to do with this movie being more of a childhood memory than a movie! We headed over to the grocery to pick up a few items for the week and came home. I desperately need to tidy up a bit for the start of a new week.. but so far I’ve only managed to take a few outfit photos. This took unexpectedly long because it required some clean up! Um.. yeah.

I decided to head out on location for some new scenery. I’m kind of lame in that I don’t like traipsing around by myself with all of my camera gear. If someone is with me it can still be awkward but I’m not fumbling around like an idiot quite as much. But, I decided I couldn’t take one more photo in my backyard and Nate was too tired to go along. I didn’t want to actually drive any where .. so I took a walk. I ended up in this undeveloped field in my neighborhood and thankfully I didn’t encounter too many people driving by and staring while I carried my tripod down the road. ;]

This face is the face of a person who realizes that she’s in deep- literally. I was sinking and trying to walk around and not stand in one spot wasn’t helping. I snapped a few pictures and got outta there!

So my tip to all of you fashionable ladies running blogs and snapping pictures of yourself: choose your location wisely, haha. If it looks like it might be squishy- it probably is! I tested the area out, and where I set up my tripod was fine, but once I got a ways back into the field it was no bueno! I spent 30 minutes or so sitting outside scrubbing my shoes. That mud was like cement!

    love your outfit. Totally makes me want to go shopping and find some cute new clothes.
    a tip for the mud – let it dry and then clean it off in the morning. It's usually easier that way. less sticky and gross.

      Well it’s funny because the dress, top, and tights are all super old! Just never paired them together! And youre absolutely right about letting it dry. I didn’t even think of that in the moment.
