Whoa! It sure has been wedding week on the blog the past couple days but that is just how life is when you are the "big sister" and MOH. When I first started planning her shower, I had all these wonderful pinterest ideas in my head but with working full time, blogging part time, taking care of my household, and investing in my community, I did not have all the time in the world to make them all come to be. I turned to Minted (only my favorite paper store ever!!) to see what they had. ... continue reading...

StitchFix | A Shopping Dream Come True
Over the past weekend I opened up my most recent Stitch Fix. I just sat here for a couple minutes trying to remember which box number I am on 4th? 5th? - Yikes! I couldn't remember so I went with "most recent!" That is the beauty of the written language! You forget how to say or spell something and you can easily just rework the sentence to convey the same/ similar point! Back to the point I was making with my most recent box, it was so wonderful! I feel as I have continued with Stitch Fix, ... continue reading...
