I've worn glasses since I was in the 6th grade. I have had every sort of dorky glasses known to man. Not once have I ever thought, "If I didn't need glasses, I'd still want to wear them." Not. Once. But my girl? That's a whole different story ... she doesn't need glasses. She can see perfectly. But, it appears we all want what we can't have. And so, when Firmoo offered me a pair of glasses to review, I knew this was just the opportunity for me to give my girl a little something ... [Read More]
WIWW {the back to school: winter edition}
Ahhh ... do you hear that? It is the sweet sound of routine settling back into the corners and crevices of our home. I love the holiday season and I'm thankful for all the fun we had over the break. But there is something sweet about the return of schedule. {I am sure some people manage to have schedule and routine when school isn't in session, we are not those people.} My girl started the second semester of her freshman year in high school today. Right now I can't sort out all the emotions — ... [Read More]
Your Favorite Posts of 2014
2014 is over and this week my goal is to get back into my blogging groove. December was a crazy month and while I did LOVE sharing some Advent thoughts from the Gospel of Luke every day on Facebook, I didn't manage to blog as much as I had hoped. So, here we are in January. My girl goes back to school on Wednesday so we're relishing our last bit of Christmas break with some shopping and salon-ing. {Yeah, I just made up that word.} I'm looking forward to some fun family time before we jump ...

What I Wore … and some winter nail care tips
Hey y'all! I'm finally jumping back in with a What I Wore Wednesday post ... it's been crazy around here and I have meant to share more of my outfits but since most nights I'm sitting in a gym wearing a "cheer mom" shirt of some sort, I suppose you haven't missed much. LOL But I have managed to wear colors besides black and gold in the past week so I thought I'd share what I've worn for a few exciting things happening around here. And I'm thrilled to be partnering with JULEP to share some ... [Read More]
For Your Weekend {modest is hottest edition}
I'm all about some cute clothes ... even if I can't take a good selfie for anything. And I'm also all about some cute and modest clothes for my girl. Many of you loved this week's post featuring Casiday's adorable outfits so you can definitely expect more of that. In fact, we're brainstorming a few ideas about mother/daughter styling. And since this week has also had its fair share of stress and anxiety about social media, I thought I'd share some of the great resources I've found lately for ... [Read More]
WIWW Teenage Girl Fashion Edition
Last month was so crazy and busy with big scary projects and lots of ball games. I have to be honest, I only got out of my yoga pants if I had to go to a ball game or to church. Please say you understand and that you have days {weeks, months??} where the same sort of thing happens to you. The good news is, I still have photos to share with you because my sweet girl has such cute style ... and I wanted to highlight some of her recent outfits. Sometimes it seems like all we hear is how ... [Read More]
