Nothing is wasted

 

We are reaching the end of the year. I feel like I've pushed hard this year. Working, a new show, health issues, putting out new music. But that burn out is real. It's a vicious cycle. So with the remainder of 2022 I want to do just that. Rest, reset. I feel like I might say that all the time. But taking a moment to breathe and focus on family and the things that fill my soul. Work things out. There's always room to learn new things. There's always room to heal. I want to do that.

 

Fashion Friday {Back to school}

We are back in school. I got one kid home and one in school. Only two days this week but it's made a difference. I never really realized how much I thrive on routine. While I hate having to set my alarm again it's not all bad. 

I got together with all my mom friends for brunch to pray for all the kids at school. If you don't have something like that I highly recommend it. Such a great thing to have! A group of great women to hang out with, eat with, and who will pray for you, your kids, your marriage etc. 

Back to that mom life. I'm planning play dates until I hear if little man got into preschool or not. Getting activities sorted out until we get told we are moving. Living that military life where you area always in some kind of limbo. 

My fellow military spouses know exactly what I'm talking about. 

You would think after all these years that I would be used to the unknown. 

We thought we knew exactly where we were going next and when. We started to get excited. We started researching and of course getting our hopes up. Only for it to completely change and now we are back to having no clue. I guess we have to practice that living day to day life. That "live like there's no tomorrow life". I'll let you know how that turns out.

Happy Friday!

Fashion Friday {Casual Bohemian}

I'm already in vacation mode. School is out in just a few more days and I'm already relaxing and hanging out in my most comfortable pants. I'm letting my hair go natural like a true bohemian ( I suppose). It's the "I don't care" kind of vibe that I'm really into these days. 

I'm right in the middle of planning our summer vacation plans. It's nice being so close to Florida and the beach and theme parks. We are trying to take advantage of all that while we are still in Georgia. You never know when the military is going to move you. It's just about that time of year too. 

I still have to do a big Disneyworld trip with the kids and go to all the parks. Definitely do Universal Studios again a couple more times. We are big Harry Potter nerds. 

We are playing around with ideas on where to stay. Hotel, RV, or a vacation rental. There's so many options. What are your plans for the summer?

Fashion Friday

 I love this kimono! I love the color of this Kimono. I don't know if you've noticed but Target has been stepping it up in the fashion department lately. I love a lot of the stuff that they've been putting out. When I saw this I had to snatch it up quickly before it was gone. They also have it in white and right now they are buy one get one half off right now. Pretty good deal if you want to grab both colors which is what I did. 

We made it through the first week of school and all went well. It's looking to be a good year. We might just do a back to school fashion series of all Riley's cute back to school outfits. 

Happy Friday everyone!

Fashion Friday

 Recently went to Brunch downtown and wore this outfit. It's perfect for that casual, effortless look. Loving the print and cut of the dress. It doesn't cling but lays very nicely. Forever21 is still having their sale on dresses right now. Definitely a good deal on their inexpensive dresses for spring and summer so go stock up!
