Happy Hump day everyone!
This week has been a very busy week for me, so I am keeping it short and sweet this week. Yesterday I came home late from a fun dinner with some of my favorite bloggers hosted by Elizabeth Arden. It was such a fun event and I was really thankful to meet their amazing PR and representatives all the way from NYC! The last event I went to I wore this fun white ruffle romper and these beautiful embroidered heels for under $30. For the summer this white ruffle romper makes a perfect addition in your closet for under $60! Check out how I styled this look below!

Three years I will be celebrating Mother’s Day as a mom, and every year it means so much more. I owe so much of who I am now to this little guy right here. I didn’t plan to be a mom, but God’s plans has a way of showing you how much more there is to life. My heart has never been bigger, my days never been happier, and I have never been stronger now that I am a mom. They say when you’re a boy mom you are always tired but your heart is always full, and to me every hour I miss sleeping is every hour I get to play with my little guy, laugh at all his shenanigans, and just watch him grow to the wonderful little guy that he is. There will always be a special bond that a mom and her little man will share. I am so thankful God made me a boy mom, because he has shown me strength, grace, and love more than I could ever imagine. Today I am sharing some fun truths about the life of being a boy mom.
With summer and Mother’s Day around the corner, I am sharing my favorite shorts every mom needs this summer. I’ll be showing you the fit, rise, and length, and why these shorts will be your go to for every event whether vacationing on the beach, or watching a baseball game with family. Make sure to watch the video above and subscribe to my channel. I’ve also linked similar styles and fit below for under $100, perfect for every mom and their budget!

Last weekend, I attended the grand reopening at Francesca’s in Memorial City Mall. I love the open concepts and light airy feel. If you saw my Instastory you might have seen I was particularly fond of all the cool mother’s day shirts and gift ideas, and of course all the cat lover inspired home decor. Francesca’s is one of my favorite boutiques to shop for because of all of their unique and adorable home decor and accessories, and their fashion forward clothing styles for women. Check out my previous office decor post here, and my seasonal Christmas gift guide here with Francesca’s. Today I’ll be sharing some of my favorite maxi dresses from Francesca’s and give you an inside look at their brand new remodel.

Hey guys,
So like many of you requested here is workout video using the workout machines at the gym. Today I am sharing four exercises you can do at the lat pull down machine. I’m the type of girl who likes to utilize each machine as much as I can, because if you know how it can be at the gym, sometimes if you don’t get on a machine quick you might be waiting forever to get on. With these back exercises you will be targeting different areas of your back just back changing had position and grip handles. View the video for more details of four exercises using the lat pull down machines.

Hey guys, it’s another short and sweet Friday post. Today I am going to talk a little about Liketoknow.it app and why you should download it. I have been part of the Liketoknow.it for a little over a year now, and it is one of my favorite affiliate marketing groups to be part of. It allows me to be a personal shopper for all of ya’ll through my Instagram and blog. Think of it like the sales associate at Nordstrom who makes commission off of their sales, we make commission off items we sell through what we are wearing or suggestions we make through our blog. But aside from that, it is very convenient for our readers to shop our looks because it gives you direct links to where to buy the item simply by liking our Instagram photo, and now you can screen shot and have it directly sent to you Liketoknow.it app instead of your email. How easy is that? Check out this adorable summer look I took in front of the famous Liketoknow.it wall in Dallas, and shop the look below! Continue reading “What is Like to Know it”
First of all, I want to say THANK YOU, from the bottom of my heart. I really appreciate every single one of you who took the time to fill out the survey. I also appreciate all the positive feedback and the sweet messages. I seriously was in tears reading it. Honestly, I was so scared to do this survey because I was scared of getting negative or hateful responses. I’ve heard some horror stories from other bloggers, and it being my first survey, I wasn’t sure what to expect. I appreciate every single message from you guys, because it has reassured me of the direction I am going with this blog. I was a little lost at first, but after reading your responses it brought me back to why I blog, why I started this whole thing, and what keeps me going. So today I am going to share with you my whys, my goals, and my vision for this blog. Plus this classic denim on denim look thats perfect for summer and another GIVEAWAY!
Can’t believe I am 29! Time sure does fly by, especially more now that I have a family of my own. This past weekend we went to our 3rd annual trip to Dallas to visit family and support the Texas Rangers. (View our past trips here and here.) We come from a baseball family, and there’s nothing more that makes this mama’s heart melt than seeing my husband and son share their love for the game. On Saturday the night before my birthday, when we went to the game my hubby surprised me with the sweetest birthday message on the big jumbotron at the Ranger’s stadium. And to top it off, since Josh’s Uncle manages the Rangers, we were able to sit right behind President George W. Bush and meet him at the game! Now that’s a pretty awesome way to remember my 29th birthday. I’m really thankful to be able to have such wonderful family to celebrate with on my birthday, and as I near my thirties I can’t help but reflect on how much I have learned and grown in my twenties. I never imagined my life would be like this, and never could imagine how amazing life would be. I look back at all my throwback pictures and can’t help but laugh at all the crazy good times, and lessons learned. My 20’s were something else, and there isn’t a single thing I regret about it, not even my poor choice in “hoochie mama” clothing during my college party days lol. All of my choices, all of my heartaches, all of my mistakes, help me be who I am today. So here are 29 life lessons I learned in my 20’s. Continue reading “29 Life Lessons I learned in my 20’s”
