I got an e-mail a few weeks ago from the editor of Women’s Day magazine. It was so sweet. She was letting me know that they had featured my 4th of July Pretzel Hugs. She told me that they loved my blog and if I had any other great recipes to please send them her way and they would consider featuring them in the future.

I’m all about lists. And productivity. And finding practical systems that work well for me. I’m also all about finding that perfect pair of great fitting jeans.
But that’s a post for another day. :)

We’ve been working hard around here lately. Really hard.

Happy Friday friends! Let’s talk fashion. I have some CUTE things (and some great deals!) to share with you today. Starting with my latest favorites. Is this teal and green clutch not adorable!? Love the colors, love the pattern, love that it’s only $35. What!? Yes. I’m serious. So cute and fun for summer. (These pillows are from my master btw.. just waiting on a few things that have been backordered and then I’ll share progress!)

Some of you might remember not too long ago I shared in a post that my parents were featured on the Utah news sharing their fun treehouse. (You can see the news clip HERE if you missed it.) I promised I’d take pictures of the treehouse the next time I was at my parents, so the day after my mom’s retirement party I snapped a few. This treehouse is such a dream for all of us!
Happy Friday friends! Usually I’m pretty pumped for the weekend but with summer here, all of the days sort of blur together. That can be a really good thing and a really bad thing. ;) I don’t have a lot of outfits to show you because honestly this week I’ve pretty much gone back and forth from my swimsuit to these favorite striped sweat pants I shared in last week’s favorites/fashion post. Back and forth.. back and forth. Our first week of summer has been a relaxing one to say the least. :)

Today I’m sharing my family room spruced up for summer as part of a Summer Home Tour Showcase hosted by my sweet friend Kelley Nan. So much fun! If you are visiting from my friend Bree’s blog (Z Design at Home) welcome! I’m so very happy you are here and hope you’ll put your feet up and stay a while. :)
I’ve shared my family room many times before throughout the seasons and to be honest, not a lot has changed. I go a bit crazy with Fall, Christmas and even Spring decor, but Summer? That’s usually a season when I focus more on if it’s a pool day or a beach day and when I need to re-stock the popsicles. :)

Happy weekend everyone! So this post was supposed to be up Friday morning but it’s officially summer for us which means.. #priorities. ;) So happy to be done with our school year! As you can see, so is my little buddy.

Tomorrow is the last day of school! Ask me if I’m excited.
You’re all taking too long so I’ll just tell you.. I’m SO excited. :)
Not long ago I shared my summer goals with you all and today I’m sharing my summer reading list! Now before I share these books with you that I’ve ordered and am DYING to dive into, I have to warn you (even though you most likely already know) that I’m a total nerd. I have this thing for organizing/time management books. They are my all time favorite books to read! My husband gets the biggest kick out of it because my favorite thing to do is to lounge by the pool doing nothing and read about how to be more productive. Ha! It is kind of funny when you think about it. But I don’t care. It’s my favorite. :) So most of these books are about how to stay organized and manage your time. I seriously can’t wait to read them all!

Well! It has been a week since I posted last. How is everyone doing? :) We are good. Busy! But the very best kind of busy. There are so many things I’m dying to share with you all (oh my word.. I’ve been decorating and organizing up a storm around here!) but I need to record a few random pics from last week first. It was a special week for our girls!
*Sidenote: Be prepared for bad lighting.. all of these are quick cell phone pics! And excuse the shameless bragging. This proud mom just can’t help herself. ;)
Last weekend my sweet Addison turned 10 years old. Can’t believe that! My parents came to visit (and help!) because we had so much going on. Ad is going to start playing an instrument next year and her grandpa surprised her by giving her his favorite saxophone. (My dad is an amazing sax player and I grew up listening to his jazz.) :)

Oh my word. It’s the end of May! We all made it! Still hanging on around here. By a thread no doubt, but alive and kicking. We have the rest of this week and one more until summer break and we are all so beyond ready. This morning was brutal after the nice, long weekend. Almost hilarious. None of us wanted to wake up! Then we were scrambling big time. It’s like our brains have switched over to summer mode and there’s no going back. :)
Because life is so busy, especially during this time of year, I decided to do a quick month round-up of what happened on the blog during May. I know I haven’t had much time for blog reading lately and I can’t wait to sit down in my pj’s and do some major catching up on my favorites in two weeks! Seriously counting down. If you’ve been on the go like we have and missed a post or two I’ll catch you up quick! Then on to good things in June. :)
I kicked off the month by sharing my organized jewelry. This vanity in my master bathroom has been a dream since I whipped it into shape! I shared all the details in this post (including my favorite jewelry) and can’t wait to share a few more things in this space soon!
