Favorite Things: Vol. X

Favorite Things· Life

Hello friends! We have made it through yet another work week!!

I feel like summer is finally upon us (THANK YOU LORD), and I’m so excited to go on all the summer trips and what-not! Next week, G and I are traveling to Chicago and then we are going up to northern Michigan for the wedding of one of my best friends. I cannot wait!

So if y’all have any recommendations for Chicago, please share in the comments. We have never been, but I will be sure to share what we loved when we get back 🙂

Btw, the blog finally got a face-lift this past week, so if anyone has any suggestions to improve the layout, be sure to share– i feel like it finally looks a bit more polished but I’m going to continue tweaking it.

ONTO THE FAVORITES THOUGH!

Well… I’m just obsessed with everything in this picture.

I’m totally in love with white eyelet tops this season, and actually just bought a similar one off Poshmark. Brb anxiously waiting for it to arrive in the mail.

Also just obsessed with this whole backyard/tablescape/pool. Not about comparing myself to others, so I won’t say this lovely gal, Camille, is #goals… but I will say she is #UltimateLifeInspo 😉 Just counting down the time until G and I buy a house so we can have a backyard!

Does this tart not look like the prettiest thing ever?! I want to eat this ASAP.

Anyone want to teach me how to decorate a tart like that? gorgeous.

Lastly, we have my letter-board in our living room this week: 🙂

Have a great weekend!

Letting go of my own aesthetic to make my toddler’ Letting go of my own aesthetic to make my toddler’s bathroom more colorful and fun.

Wanted to make my toddler’s bathroom a little more Wanted to make my toddler’s bathroom a little more colorful and fun without painting the walls a crazy color and making it feel even darker and more cave like 🫥🫥🫥 
Raising the shower curtain rod and sewing 2 inexpensive ikea shower curtains together definitely brought some color and funkiness into the space. And changing out the light fixture and framing off the builder grade mirror were such inexpensive upgrades that made a big difference! 
Also so happy with the fun wall art and affirmations to make getting ready in here a bit more fun! It’s a kid’s bathroom! Let it be colorful 🥰 #toddlermom #whimsy #kidsbathroom

When I became a mom, I was unprepared for the fier When I became a mom, I was unprepared for the fierce love and protectiveness I was overcome with. It was (and still is) terrifying having my heart exist outside of my body and trusting it to the world. 
Motherhood is the greatest gift and hardest job I’ve ever had. Being both a ‘forever mom’ and a foster mom has formed me into a stronger, more passionate, more empathetic, and creative version of myself. My life and work before kids felt important and meaningful, but raising kind, caring kids to impact their future communities and world feels like my most important purpose yet ❤️

With a little DIY ladder, flowers, and the help of @treepoetry.us (thank you for gifting us with the door and glow-in-the-dark mushrooms!! 🍄) we basically have a fairy village going on! 🏡🧚🧚‍♀️🏠
This is so much more fun for my toddler to play with and we say that Mack the fairy comes out here to play with his friends 🥰 #toddlermom #whimsy #whimsicalchildhood #fairygarden #positivemotherhood
