Fall Corn Maze Adventures


Super fun Saturday with friends and their kiddos getting lost in a corn maze. It only took me 34 years to finally experience this fun Fall tradition, and we had a blast navigating through the maze mostly with little Max leading the way.

Home Decor: Modern Style with Functional Design



If you travel quite a bit, you've probably noticed the growing trend with hotels incorporating USB charging plugs into lamps or outlets on the wall. This is the direction modern decor is taking to accommodate for technology and having to charge your phone on-the-go.

Life Lately + Giveaway


Since the weekend was pretty uneventful (which I'm not complaining about), I thought I'd check in with a life lately update.

Party Supplies from the Dollar Store

I love party planning, often on a tight budget. If there's one thing I love about the Dollar Store is that they have a great selection of party supplies for every occasion.

Elephants For Strength: Gift Guide


I recently read an article about ancient lore and the symbolism of different animals. It said that the elephant came to Earth to teach us about true strength and loyalty. They are extremely strong animals but gentle nature, never using their power to harm others.

Solving Personal Hair Care Struggles + Giveaway


I was contacted by Formulate, a new personal care brand, to test their customized shampoo and conditioner formulas that are created by their chemists specifically for your hair type and needs. The company's concept is very unique and a new-to-me experience. I was all onboard since my hair is not as easy to maintain as it may look.

Friday Faves


Happy Friday everyone!

My work life has been crazy for the last two months coordinating a huge conference happening next week. Considering our corporate is in Australia, the time difference has sometimes consumed my nights to coordinate with the team over there, instead of blogging which I only find time to do at night or weekends.

Recent Amazon Purchases: Baby Girl Gifts


It just so happens most of the babies born in my circle of friends/family this year have been girls so there's lots of pink in this post from baby showers to first birthday parties.

Twin Pumpkins Turn 1


The weekend was relaxing and productive which is always much needed between all of our travel adventures and busy work schedules but the highlight was celebrating my favorite twinsies 1st birthday yesterday.

September Happenings


A new week and a new month start today. I welcome October but it feels like September flew by in a blink of the eye. Looking back at everything that happened the last few weeks, it's evident time truly flies when you're having fun.

This weekend was a quiet one so I'm sharing all the things that happened in September including some tidbits from the weekend.

Nashville Work Trip


With all the busy weekends the past few weeks, I made sure I was feeling rested before making my way over to Nashville last week Monday for a work training conference. The days were packed starting with breakfast at 8 am, back-to-back courses throughout the day until about 5 pm, then ending with happy hours, dinner and networking.

Wedding Weekend Fun



The past few weekends have all been filled with different celebrations - bridal showers, birthday parties, travel adventures, baby showers - and this weekend was no exception.

Fall Fashion Accesories


Tomorrow is the official start of Fall and, while it stills feels like summer weather in Florida, I'm already planning all the cute fashion accessories in preparation for the crisp air finally making it's way south.

CoverGirl's TruBlend Matte Foundation & Skim Primer


I love receiving beauty products that actually work for my skin so I can do a rave review after testing for a few weeks and then have the products to use until they run out and I repurchase.

A Cowgirl Themed Baby Shower


It was a fairly low key weekend except for a co-ed baby shower on Saturday which was beautifully decorated and had a huge turn out. The mom-to-be is from a small town in Texas so the cowgirl theme was perfect plus her favorite food, Tex-Mex was on the menu!

Austin Double Decker Bus Tour


We had a blast exploring Austin, TX over Labor Day weekend to celebrate K's birthday and, while most of the trip was unplanned, I did book a hop on/hop off sightseeing and historic tour on the Double Decker Austin.

Adventures in Austin, Texas


Austin has been on my travel wish list for several years now and we finally made it over there for Labor Day weekend to celebrate K's birthday.

Fun and Funnies in Austin, TX


Happy Birthday to my 2 loves - K and Lola who share the same birthday today!

We got back from Austin on Monday night after a fun-filled long weekend celebrating K's birthday so I'm in the struggle mode trying to get back on track with a busy work schedule. With that said, I'm keeping it light today with some fun and funny sightings from our trip.
