Happy Monday! I hope you all had a fabulous weekend! It was a busy one for me and my hubby! I made and sent out a ton of orders, we got a whole new kitchen, we went to dinner with some friends, and my hubby studied for a board exam. And now it's already Monday. Normally, I'm not thrilled when Monday rolls around again, but this week I'm ok with it! It means only one more day until we leave for Dallas and that Christmas is a week away. So cheers to Monday and bring on this week! Today I want to talk about this adorable dress from a cute little boutique called Love Modest Rose . If you're anything like me, finding modest dresses is hard! Even most maxi dresses don't work for me because I'm tall and they hit me at a weird length. So when this dress came in the mail and it fit like a dream, I was hooked. Bonus, the sleeves are even long enough! Love it!! Oh and FYI, these run small. I normally wear a medium, but wear a large in this dress! ...

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...

Happy Monday! I'm hoping that some of you are like me: you work from home and sometimes have a hard time focusing and avoiding distractions. As I was writing this post, I tried really hard to be honest with all of you and myself about what distracts me during my workday. So today I'm going to share what some of my distractions are and talk a little bit about how I avoid them! And please comment at the end and tell me what some of you struggle with and any suggestions you may have! First distraction, phones . I'm so guilty of this! It's super easy to get distracted by our phones, especially if it's sitting on our desk constantly buzzing with texts, emails and notifications. While they do play a big role in communication, marketing, etc, phones are something that we can spend hours on without even realizing it. It's easy to get sucked into social media and spend lots of time reading what everyone else is up to. It's easy to say "just one mor...
