image Apparently, yesterday was Winnie the Pooh Day, and while I’m not normally the type of person to celebrate things like National Popcorn Day (today), or Bubble Bath Day (a few weeks ago), I feel Pooh has enough amazing things to say about friendship and life that may be worth celebrating. Not that popcorn and […]
Is anyone else dreaming of traveling more in 2017? Maybe it’s the nasty cold spell we’re having in my neck of the woods, but I am READY to start planning some getaways for the new year! Today’s Bestie Finds is all about getting outta dodge for a bit! Traveling is one of my favorite types […]
Welcome to 2017, Besties! I hope you all enjoyed your New Year’s celebrations! Each January, people are naturally inclined to dream about what they want more or less of in the coming year.

Merry Christmas (a few days early)! I’ll be taking the rest of the weekend off to celebrate with family so I wish you all a lovely holiday full of comfort, joy, and peace! May you make beautiful memories with those you hold most dear. Before I sign off for the long weekend, I wanted to […]

But sometimes our days […]
10 days till Christmas, Besties! Not sure how in the world that happened, but the excitement in our house is growing every day. Today’s Bestie Finds would all make perfect holiday gifts…or they would make wonderful additions to my your own cabinets. There’s something about relaxing with your beverage of choice that says “self care” to […]
How was your weekend, Besties? Mine was busy but so fun! I got some quality time with the fam as well as a whole day of brunching and Christmas shopping with some of my besties (thanks, husband!). We have been carving out regular, intentional time together for a while now, and my life has been […]
Hi Besties! Just another edition of Bestie Finds for you this Saturday! Today I’ve rounded up some fun journals for every occasion. I journal every day (and have since practically birth) because I love it. I know not everyone gets as excited about a new journal as I do, but if journaling is one of […]
