The Secret Is Out- Blogger Secret Santa Reveal

Best Candy EVER!

Merry Christmas Friends of the internet. I am writing this post on Christmas Eve,full of excitement with a glass of wine in my hand. 

My Blogger Secret Santa was Sara Magnolia at Saramagnolia.com , her instagram is beautiful too.  Anyway, after receiving these gifts and reading her about page. I am pretty sure we should be friends. Now onto the gifts..


My obsession with Target dollar spot items continues, with all these super fun stationary items. I definitely will get my use out of them. First stop is to laminate my folders and add them to my collection. I love the fancy manila folders so much and can't wait to fill these up and use them regularly. I'm also pencil obsessed so there is that too. And I can't forget to mention how cute those binder clips are,this planner girl is in love!!!

I am also super glad to have gotten this really fun lip kit! The shade is lovely and I can't wait to wear it out! The best part is that it has an exfoliate for those cold winter days with dry lips #bonus.

Thank you so much Sara and I am so glad to be able to connect with you :)

Photo A Day (Week 6)

Hey Internet Pals,
                            Since it has been a while since I have posted I thought I would share a quick step into my week. These posts are one of my favorites to write and share, and I hope you enjoy them too. Let's get into it!!

Sunday 

I spent some time making my planner look nice for the week and I feel pretty good about it. 

Monday

This little Lady Bug Landed on my shoe and stayed for quite a while. I know that it really isn't a big deal,but I enjoyed that moment.

Tuesday

I love keeping my Tuesday nights free to enjoy Dance Moms. The Season Finale is getting intense! 

Plus I got to visit my BFF this day and it was nice to be able to see him twice a week instead of once a week. 

Wednesday

We had out first snowfall. I don't really love snow when I have to drive or walk in it, however I do like admiring it from out the Window. 

Thursday 

I taught this song to one of the kids I work with and I wish I took a video of how loud he was singing it down the hall at school today. It was absolutely wonderful.

Pineapple Love! Q4YT

The Pin

For this week's Q4YT (Quote for you Tuesday) I want to share a quote that I recently discovered on Pinterest and has been my mantra because it relates to my life in many ways.  Let's get into it! 

When I was in the 8th grade at 14 years old,my friend Rebekah called me a pineapple because I have many blonde moments and I am a brunette. Pineapples have been my favorite ever since, not just because of the saying,but because they are delicious. I love me a good pineapple all year round in all forms. When I saw this quote I fell in love with it. 

With that being said, stand tall and be sweet!

Photo A Day (Week 5)

Hey Friends! Can I just start by saying these Photo A Day posts are my favorite. I love finding 1 or 2 things from a day that were really great. Side note: I also love photo collages that turn more than one photo into 1 photo. Sometimes I have a hard time just picking one. Let's get into it,shall we.

Sunday-I went to the museum with my best friend, and it was a lot of fun. 

Monday- Free Toothbrush Day! Aka going to the dentist. These teeth are happy.

Tuesday- Started out with a large iced coffee and ended with a Panda Express Daddy Daughter date and playing with the new petmoji app. 

Wednesday- Alex  from Alex In the Kitchen and I made 27 PB&J sandwiches for the homeless for a Random Act of Kindness. It was so fun to chat and make sandwiches knowing that we were going to make some people very happy. 

Thursday- I am dog sitting this cute puppy this weekend and he was great to come home to after work. #puppyloveforthewin

Summer Q4YT

Yesterday was officially the first day of summer and I am in full summer mode. Sidenote: It kind of sucks because, officially I have two more weeks of summer vacation then I am back to the books to finish getting the last few classes of my TESL ( Teaching English as a Second Language) endorsement. However, today I wanted to share with you one of my favorite summer quotes. 

Pin

I feel like summer for me is always trying to do big projects around the house that are never possible with a busy schedule during the other 9 months of the year. The sun can change a mood and it helps to have some pink on. I guess the moral of this quote that I am trying to get at is it's summer and there is a lot of opportunity for more play less work.
