I am loving the chunky, trendy, nautical themed jewelry I’m seeing. I have been pinning a bunch of summer recipes to our Pinterest page and plan to make this cute cake for the 4th at the lake! A gf just shared this … [Read more...]

Happy Hour
What pre-workout drink do you take? I don’t like the way energy drinks make me feel and need an alternative. I stopped taking pre-workout powders a while ago because I did not like the way they made me feel. I have a pretty high tolerance for caffeine, but for whatever reason/ingredient added to pre-workout powders and energy drinks I don’t have a great reaction to them. I typically … [Read more...]
Alix’s Summer Ins and Outs
The school year is winding down and summer is right around the corner. My kids are not out until late June, but Memorial Day Weekend always feels like the unofficial start of summer. With summer approaching, it has me thinking about how I want our summer to look. With Daisy tearing her ACL and getting surgery next month it’s thrown a little curve ball into our plans, but I’m really looking forward … [Read more...]

I have this one and this one and linked a bunch of others here: I need a cute, casual clutch to bring … [Read more...]
What I Wore in Mexico
Ross and I went on a quick trip to Cabo last weekend for a dear friend’s wedding. I’ve only been to Mexico one other time when I was 15 and went to Cancun, so it was nice to travel somewhere I haven’t been before. I was blown away by the beauty Cabo and how friendly everyone was. We got absolutely perfect weather and it was fun to get dressed up. We know I love to wear some color, much to … [Read more...]

What’s the most bang for your buck eyelash serum? I’d say Revitalash over anything. I want a plumping lip gloss but not one that stings or hurts. Do you have a brand that you like? We both love the Lawless lip glosses but I also found this drug store version earlier this week that I love too (I got color Hits Diff). Can you link the toner you got from Costco? Found it on Amazon here … [Read more...]
My Weekend at Miraval
dress // hat My friend Jenny and I meet up once a year for a girls trip (she lives in Chicago) and we’ve been discussing a Miraval destination for a few years. We figured this was the year we made this bucket list trip happen as a belated 40th birthday trip to ourselves ;) I had really high hopes for this trip and it did not disappoint in the slightest. I was able to truly unplug and … [Read more...]
Weekend Snaps + Recent Outfits
Our weekends are go, go, go but I wouldn’t have it any other way! The boys play lacrosse, baseball and golf so we are jam packed from the second they get out of school on Friday to Sunday evening but I love nothing more than being at a field with them and watching them learn, grow and do something they love. We do find moments in between for some down time and socializing so here are some snaps … [Read more...]
