Monday Mood

Happy Monday y'all! 


I hope you all had a fabulous weekend! It was a busy one for Shawn and me. He had three board exams, I had a ton of orders to do, and we had a Christmas party to go to. Oh and we have to move everything out of our kitchen because we're getting new cabinets, countertops and appliances on Wednesday! Wahoo!


My Monday Mood....so ready for Christmas!! I can't believe it's only two weeks away! This year has flown by so fast, but I'm definitely not complaining...this is my favorite time of the year. Shawn and I can't wait to head to Dallas and be with family for a couple weeks! We have some fun things planned. Indoor skydiving, seeing the new Star Wars movie, whirlyball (Google it!), lights at the Dallas Zoo, Annual Christmas Eve Auction, baking old family cookie recipes, the list goes on. All of that is what's gonna get me through the next 8 days!


Ok since Monday tends to be kind of a downer, I figured I'd do some fun things today and help me get in the Christmas mood! It definitely worked. I watched Elf (how can you not LOVE that movie?!), made and decorated (and ate) some Christmas cookies, and rocked out to Christmas music! (Y'all need to check out Lindsey Stirling's new song with Becky G called Christmas C'mon...it's FABULOUS and I'm Uhhbsessed!

Have an awesome Monday and start the work week off with some fun!!

Playing Catch Up: June (Plumb Family Vaca)

June was a CRAZY month for us! My family came out for eight days and then Shawn's parents and friends came out for about five days. Oh, and we managed to squeeze a super fun camping trip in between those visits! We love having visitors, it makes us feel less lonely and far away from everyone! And we love showing people around Boston! My parents and two little sisters came out here the first week of June and we had so much fun! We did everything...and I mean EVERYTHING! We crammed a lot into the eight days they were here. The first day we took it easy and laid low since they got in really late the night before. We went and checked out the Harvard campus, had some shawarma , then went and saw Wonder Woman (such a good movie!) in 3D at the huge IMAX screen inside Jordan's Furniture. If anyone hasn't been there, you really should check it out ! They have the newest technology for sound...there are sound boxes above you, in front of you, behind you, on the sides of you, AND

How to Build a Summer Capsule Wardrobe

Happy Friday! Isn't summer the best?! The sunshine, laying by the pool, days at the beach, cruises, vacations...it's perfect! Just like I did this spring, I've put together some items to help you build the perfect summer capsule wardrobe! Whether you have fun summer vacays planned or just need to freshen up your closet, I'm sure that these capsule pieces will inspire everyone!  The whole point of a capsule wardrobe is to put together a handful of staple pieces from each clothing category that can be mixed and matched to form a wardrobe of multiple outfits. The pieces should all be complimentary in color, pattern, style, etc. So let's get started!  First up, the basics! The best way to start building your capsule wardrobe is with some simple tees. I tend to choose tees that are neutral in color; some solid some with subtle texture. This way they go with more items and outfits! (Tip: make sure one of them is a plain white tee because they literall

Dealing with Life’s Lemons! Man, I’m falling behind on this whole blog thing! Yikes! I better get my butt in gear. Anyways, I’ve been thinking about a lot of things lately. So disclaimer, this post may be fairly long…but it may also help someone out. I know it definitely helps me to write it all down. Everyone has heard the old saying, “When life gives you lemons, make lemonade…” Well, sometimes I don’t want freaking lemonade! Sometimes I just want to chuck the lemons back at life haha. Harsh, I know. But it’s the truth. Sometimes all I want is to vent, blow off steam, or punch a hole in the wall haha! I can’t be the only one who feels this way. I’m sure we’ve all had our moments. And by moments I mean weeks. This was just one of those weeks for me. I won’t bore you with the details, but let’s just say things have been snowballing for awhile and this week I burst. It takes a lot to make me cry and get upset over things, but the other night I did. I told Shawn everything that
