Best Camo Leggings Under $20!




These camo leggings are AMAZING!  Only $14 from TARGET!  I promise, these are the same on the model, but they look very different in the ad.  I also love these Calia tanks, because they are long enough to cover the booty!

Bell-Sleeve Top from Wal-Mart for only $15!



Here I created two different looks with the same top from Wal-Mart.  The top is only $15!  I can't believe it!!!


Here is the first look!  I paired the bell-sleeved top with the peach statement necklace for under $24!  You could wear this with jeans and flats, or in the office with navy trousers and pumps.

Fall evenings!



Hopscotch fun!!!


She's holding his HAND!!! So proud




 Ahh, there is nothing better than a nice, brisk, fall evening!  Just a light jacket will keep you warm, a cool breeze making your hair blow in the wind, and scarecrows!  I love being a mom, and experiencing joy, once again, with my girl.  A simple stick of chalk, and making a hopscotch a board, can bring so much joy, smiles, and laughter into the evening.  This is what matters...

Just-Because Flowers

True story.. My husband buys me "just because" flowers all the time!  He is the sweetest!  I also try to use different "vases" to hold my flowers to make a different look.  Here, I placed my new wooden coffee sign (because I love all things coffee), in between my vases that are actually candle holders!  I could not love this more! 

 What do you guys think?

Mickey Mouse Themed Birthday Party

Mickey Mouse Themed Birthday Party!


I needed to decorate for Addi's Mickey Mouse-themed party! I found this awesome way to do streamers on Pinterest and figured I needed to try it!  

Just starting out!  I wasn't sure how this was going to look 
 Starting to look better.. But still was not sure! 
 Finished product!  Added some balloons to really highlight the piece!
 I also created this centerpiece with balloons and a popcorn container!  I also think the polka dot table cloth really made the decorations come together!

 My handmade, DIY Mickey garland.  Also, used this Mickey water bottle that I found on sale as a vase and Addi's train as a statement piece!  
 More streamers and my DIY Mickey cake plate!  Made with a bowl and plate from the Dollar Store and some felt pieces I cut out!
 Another cake plate that I used as a centerpiece!  It seriously only cost $2 to make!! 


What do you guys think?  I'm pretty sure I only spent about $40 to decorate for Addi's party! 

Thanks for stopping by!

Choose Happy


My life motto is "choose happy".  I choose happy every day.  I placed this here as a gentle reminder when I need to choose more happy.  Like today when I have barely slept post night-shift and seems that I have a million things to do. So I will choose happy. And coffee.  Lots of coffee.  With many refills.

More fall decor!


I love the shabby chic, rustic feel that pairing metal and wood gives!  I recently picked up this galvanized metal bucket and knew I had to have it!  I think I found the perfect spot here!  Also, love how my vase holder and picture frame are also galvanized metal to make it all cohesive!  What do you think?

Apple picking!

We decided we would go to a local farm to pick apples and have some fall fun!  The trek was almost 50 miles one way!  We were reluctant to go, but my sister thought it would be fun.. so we go!  Turns out.. apple picking was not happening that weekend!  We did pick some acorns, and an apple from their market!!
