Image from iOS (3)

Oh, hello November! I'm glad you showed up being all fall like and all. Sometimes fall in Texas can mean chilly rain, which is not my favorite but cooler temps are always welcome this time of year. Currently, I'm writing this post {or finishing this post} from the Des Moines International Airport. I'm waiting on my flight to take me back to Texas. I've spent the weekend in Iowa with my family. Sometimes I am able to make trips home that are happy but this one was filled with sadness. A funeral ... Continue Reading...

Life is an adventure, right? Home decorating is an adventure that is scary for me...Boo! Yes, pun intended. But truthfully, I am so far from an interior decorator that our universes may never collide. Enter my husband, who has a new-found love for home decor.

If you can relate, then you are walking in my shoes, sister. Glad you're here! I ... Continue Reading...

Hey, friends! So confession time and you might already know, but I missed Currently last month with Anne in Residence. I just could not get it together after re-entering the teaching field. There were just too many things on my plate, and I could not get a blog post together to save my life. But, hey, 9 out of 10 this year isn't too bad! Wearing ~ Y'all, my wardrobe has totally changed. No more tucking my shirts and wearing belts. It's loose tops that are untucked these days. Why? Because I ... Continue Reading...

Hello, friends! It's been awhile but I'm glad to be here today with my friends at The Blended Blog. I'm also glad that October is here!

I have some fun news to share today! It's about makeup, which I'm sure is one of a girl's best friends, right?! Any woman who has a ballooning makeup collection definitely needs someplace fabulous to store it. Well, I have the perfect place to share with you. Joligrace makeup bags and cases have the most fabulous collections. Recently, I was given the opportunity to try one and as I perused their website, I decided a larger bag would perfect. Why? Well, I don't have the largest makeup ... Continue Reading...
