Christmas cookies 🎄
I pulled out my Mom’s cookie press and we made Butter Almond Spritz Cookies tonight. The kids did great. 😊 It brought back sweet memories. She used to make them cookies with it when they were little. 🎄❤️

A little Christmas cleaning and organization before the chaos begins!! I forgot to put my rugs back down as you can see, but it’s squeaky clean! I put away a lot of clutter and tossed out a lot of stuff in my pantry today. I also cleaned out the fridge which was pretty gross and…

I mean… he’s too cute.
Rusty looks pretty dapper in his new bow tie. ❤️

Describe a man who has positively impacted your life. I can think of a few, but I cannot imagine not saying my husband. God fully orchestrated him coming into my life and we both realized that pretty early in our relationship. It filled so many voids in both of our lives, and it was so…

Is your life today what you pictured a year ago? No. I think it’s better. The past year hasn’t been without its struggles, but that’s part of living. Life is rarely free of obstacles or pain, yet you can still be in love with your life while carrying heavy things. They don’t cancel each other…

Santa brought New Appliances
I’ve slowly been replacing toxic pans and plastics in our kitchen recently. After finding out our air fryer was a HUGE cancer risk, I started finding out about other things we use too, so Gary ended up surprising me with a Ninja Dual Zone air fryer that had PTFE- and PFOA-free baskets, a Ninja Foodi…

Bluyoncé did her thing!!
I put her to work!! Mrs. Mix-A-Lot, Stevie Mix or Bluyoncé (I can’t pick a name yet) put her time in today! I made cheeseballs for Christmas, Sourdough, buffalo chicken dip and hummus!

Lovely..
We went to get Teachers Christmas Cards today, and I ended up treating myself to some new perfume. It smells sooo good. I haven’t bought myself perfume in years.. I just wanted something really different. I’ve worn AERIN Mediterranean Honeysuckle and Gucci Bloom for years, but I wanted something that reminded me of my Mother…

Goodnight.. 🌙
Today I was kinda feeling blue. I guess hearing that news from Jenn really upset me more than I realized. A few months ago when my fb got deleted I obviously wasn’t able to just add my Mom & Brother as friends easily, and I couldn’t see their photos and pages. So today I was…

Last Minute Gift that arrives before Christmas! This Womens Moto jacket comes in a few colors. I ordered the black one for Norah Harper and it’s so cute!! I just ordered the red one for myself bc I love it after opening it! Amazon Link ❤️

The sexiest thing a man can do for a woman, is reassure her that he’s got everything under control. 😮💨🙏🏼

I am heartbroken.
I’ve briefly spoken before about my lifelong friend Jennifer that has been battling cancer for about a year now. This morning she announced that she was told to get her affairs in order, because she would not be here much longer. I sat here in my bed and sobbed. I can’t imagine being told that…

Mama is TIRED
We did a huge Sams Club run today. I finished ALL the Christmas shopping except the kid’s Teachers. Gary got to go with me since he’s working nights. I haven’t stopped today and my sciatic nerve is feeling it! We also looked at a house. It’s an example of too much blank space. Don’t get…

He loves my pink robe. He’s just the cutest! Little Rusty!!

Unfortunately…
Unfortunately I DO love: (Gotta jump on this bandwagon) 1. Being overdressed. 2. Hot dogs 3. Perfume. My collection is as bad as my shoe and bag issue. 😬 4. Running my car on empty 5. Taking photos of my food 6. Being braless 7. Being a Passenger Princess 8. Kitchen Dance-offs!! 9. Yacht Rock…

What technology would you be better off without, why? Probably AI and phones, but here we are. I had to really think about it and it made me laugh but kinda feel weird too because Gary’s in the HigherDose and I’m doing my Shark mask while we stream TV, look at our phones, and our…

YAY!!!
Norah Harper is going to be the happiest girl! I found her red converse last week but I clicked on an email a few days ago and scored her a red converse beanie, red sweatshirt and a mini red converse keychain. All of them were 40% off. Then today I was in TJ Maxx and…

Ugh…
This is feeling like a Monday. I think I’m coming down with something. 😭😭😭

That’s a Wrap
Well… it’s very sad when you can’t help someone that you know needs help. I’ve had a friend that has really struggled with alcoholism for the last few years. I’ve tried so hard to encourage her, and help her. I’m tired though. I really am. I’ve worked hard to get rid of those habits in…

What l events have taken place in your life over the past year that your proud of ? Hmm.. It’s been a tough year for me with my back issues and in some ways it’s been one of the most challenging years of my life, but I’ve maintained a good attitude through it. I think…

What is one thing you would change about yourself? I used to would have said something regarding my appearance, but I’m probably more content with that than I’ve ever been in my whole life. I like getting older. I think we get better. I’d change my lack of self assurance and decision making. I really…

Just a quick note..
Everyone wants discernment until they realize what a painful thing it sometimes is to have. It’s the privilege of clarity… but now the ache of awareness, because now you can’t not know what you know. It’s letting go of people you don’t always want to let go of. It’s hanging onto people you sometimes want…

Rainy Day!
It’s been a cold dreary day. Gary is on nights so we rode to Fort Walton for lunch and to check out the Le Creuset Outlet. Nectar Yellow is my color and I love seeing what they have in stock. I scored salt shakers, 2 teacups and a honey pot today! I’m eventually going to…

Do you ever see wild animals? Yes. We live in an unusual area. Our neighborhood is on both a bayou and the Escambia Bay which goes into the Gulf. We have alligators in brackish/primarily fresh water on one side, and salt water with dolphins and small sharks on the other. I got a good video…

Good Morning!!
I’m up early! Today is going to be another busy day. It’s Dentist day for the family! Gary has to get a crown and we are all due for cleanings etc. I went to bed early last night. We ended up at the Mall bc Gage’s shoes didn’t fit so we returned them and drove…

Never Stops
I just found Gage’s Hey Dude boots yesterday and I hid them in the attic with the other Christmas stuff. Well, I was getting a manicure and he texted me “Mom, my shoes are so tight I can’t hardly walk. My feet are hurting.” These are the converse I bought him in October that were…

Round 2- Christmas Shopping
I managed to pull together a few things for both kids today. I think we’ve decided to get them a 3D printer, because neither really asked for anything this year. Our kids have more than enough, but neither one of them have ever been big on “stuff”. I’ve been blessed that when I say no,…

Dear Santa,
Yes, please. 😍 I’m in love.

Home Sweet Home
We went and looked at a house this morning. Again, we aren’t looking to move anytime soon, but Gary wanted me to see the floor plan. I love our home so much, but I do know we need more space. The kids rooms are small and we want them to have a big game room…

Gorgeous!
Wrangler has some awesome collabs happening. Yes, Wrangler!! I absolutely love these Women’s Fawn print bootcut jeans. They’re 119$ and they’re in very limited sizes, but I hope this becomes a fashion trend! I love these!!

I can’t tell you how good both of these are. I’m going to stock up on the chocolate mint bc they’re a limited edition. 😍😍😍

Thankful Always
Off to bed! We had such a wonderful Thanksgiving! My back felt better and we had so much fun today. We watched football, played some board games and watched a few Christmas movies and it was so nice! Our dinner was wonderful, Gary’s turkey was AMAZING. It might be the juiciest turkey I’ve ever had.…

Thanksgiving
Well this Thanksgiving will be a little different. It’s just going to be us! I’m pretty excited about that and I think Gary is too. We thought about going to his Aunt Yvonne’s house, but the kids want to stay here. I get it. Yvonne’s get togethers used to be wild bc of all the…
