This little drop zone off the kitchen makes my life so much better. The big woven bag holds returns or things that need to exit my home, as well as sunscreen and bug spray for when we are running out the door. The calendar keeps everyone in line and cuts down on the surprise practices or concerts. Each child has his or her own color.💡

It’s not particularly gorgeous but it works. Do you have a space like that in your home?

I started a new adventure this week! Back to the 9 to 5 grind, except that it starts at 6:30! If I’m absent from social during the transition, that is why.

That view at 6 am is gorgeous though!

I’ve been known to go a little overboard when Grove releases the fall Mrs. Myers scents! 🍁Acorn spice and apple cider are my favorites.

This cardigan is such a the perfect camel color for fall. It’s soft, a great length, and it’s not too hot. I’m in my usual size medium. Oh, and it’s from #walmart!

I added all these pieces on LTK today (linked in my bio).

Also, right now these tanks are 30% off! I have them in almost every color. I’m in a medium.

Today I did a hard thing…
I put in contacts my eyes for the second day in a row. 😂

I know, you probably are thinking, “That’s not hard!” Truthfully, I wanted to give up. This is the second time I’ve gotten them. Last time I quit after a couple of days.

What you may not realize is that doing things that scare me is kind of my superpower.

Whether it’s getting contacts, learning a new skill, starting a new job, etc. I charge full-force into things that intimidate me.

Here’s what I’ve learned about doing new, scary or difficult things:

1. Everyone is a beginner at some point. It was hard for them at first, too.

2. There is nothing wrong with me. I was convinced my eyes were just too small for contacts. That is not the case. Maybe you think you’ll never learn this program or how to do some thing. But you totally can!

3. Talk kindly to yourself. In the past, I told myself that I was an idiot for not figuring out how to do contacts. This time, my inner voice spoke like I would talk to my best friend. It was much more encouraging and made me want to keep trying.

4. When you tell yourself that you love doing hard things, you find that you do more hard things! There’s power in your thoughts!

So get out there and do the thing that scares you! Be fearless!

I don’t care what the weather thinks! I’m ready for fall!

These gorgeous wreaths are perfect with a mix of blush, burgundy, green, and cream. They will definitely sell out, so act quickly if you want them!

It was a trip to remember!

We spent a few days in Vegas for my birthday! The 10 photos that Instagram allows don’t begin to scratch the surface of all the things we did. Our trip was packed with crazy restaurants, concerts and shows, pool days and shopping excursions.

My sister and her hubby are our official Vegas tour guides, and they haven’t steered us wrong yet.

I’m working on a blog post about our trip and our favorite places to go. Stay tuned…
