What's Up Wednesday

Happy Wednesday!


It's time for the another round of What's Up Wednesday with my girls Shay and Sheaffer. I couldn't be more excited to share what's going on in our lives right now! Here's what's new and exciting!

What we're eating this week:
I've been in a bit of a food rut lately and have had a hard time coming up with dinner ideas, but after discovering this Cashew Chicken recipe a few weeks ago...it's now one of our go-to meals! Also on the menu this week is Cobb Salad and Fried Rice.



 What I'm reminiscing about:
This month marks one year since Shawn graduated from Dental School, one year since we moved across the country to Texas and one year since Shawn started his new job here. Time flies!

What I'm loving:
My new car!! We finally said goodbye to our old Ford Fusion and got me a new Jeep Grand Cherokee. I love it so much!!

What we've been up to:
My mom was in town last weekend and we threw my sister the CUTEST baby shower! I attempted to make and decorate my first layered cake ever and I was quite happy (and surprised) with how it turned out! The shower was a huge hit and we had so much fun celebrating my sister and new little niece!







What I'm dreading:
Nothing at the moment!

 What I'm working on:
I've been working on making my Harry Potter Monopoly game and I can't wait to share it with all of you! It's going to be epic!

 What I'm excited about:
This warm Texas weather has been amazing!! Shawn and I took our niece and nephews to the beach and had a blast! Bring on summer! Do any of you have fun summer vacays planned?!







What I'm reading:
I'm currently reading Rachel Hollis' new book "Girl, Stop Apologizing" and I really like it so far! I loved her first one so I'm hoping this one is just as good! I'm always up for new book recommendations so send them my way if you have some!

What I'm watching:
Ok, no judgement but I'm watching Gossip Girl al the way through again! I'm obsessed with this show and it's been years since I'd seen it all. Such a guilty pleasure show haha! I've also been watching the new season of Bachelorette. I actually really like Hannah and think she's doing great! Do y'all like her?



What I'm wearing:
I have so many new things to share!! I caved in and bought a pair of Reebok Classics thanks to Bre Sheppard's recommendation. I'm obsessed with them! I also bought these cute brown Espadrille Sandals from Amazon and couldn't love them more. And let's talk swimsuits for a sec! I got this Strappy Striped One Piece from American Eagle and it's the best. This Pink Ruffle Palm Leaf One Piece from Amazon is on my list to buy for the summer too!




What I'm doing this weekend:
Well I was supposed to fly to Vegas and drive back here with my sister and her family, but something came up so I'm staying in town. Shawn and I are going to see the new Aladdin movie! I've heard it's so good. Have you seen it?!

 What I'm looking forward to next month:
The official start of summer and some camping trips! Shawn and I are really going to try and get as many little weekend getaways and camping trips in this summer as possible! What are you big plans for next month?

 What else is new:
Nothing much!

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

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
