Skinny Margarita

RECIPES
Is there anything better than sipping a fresh margarita on a beautiful day? I made this fun reel the other day and thought I’d share the recipe here so you can reference more easily. I wanted to craft my favorite cocktail from scratch at home and make it a little less sugary than the typical margs you find from your favorite restaurants. I decided to start with creating my own jalapeño simple syrup and adding fresh lime, lemon, &...

Feeling Edgy

OUTFITS
I used to be a little more edgy back in the day when I was newly married and it was really fun. We used to dress up all the time to go out in Chicago but since I’ve lived in Austin and become a mom, my style has moved into more flowy and vibrant dresses. It just makes sense with our weather and the types of activities we do on the weekends now (lots of birthday parties, swimming, and...

One Year with Jack

MILESTONES
Baby Jack, You are ONE. This year has flown by and we both have grown so much. It feels like yesterday that we were bringing you home from the hospital and introducing you to your big brother and sister. They were smitten with you right off the bat but it did take a little time to adjust to a family of 5. I was so surprised when you popped out, this sweet tiny boy, who looked quite a bit...

The Coffee Read No. 3

BLOGGING
I’m sitting down at my computer today to type. It feels like it’s been forever since I’ve been able to actually write! Last week I was totally over-programmed with appointments and finally, I have minimal plans on the calendar for the days where the kids are in school! What a fresh of breath air to have my house to myself, no sick kids, time to paint, and actually unwind. We have a few renovations happening around our house that...

My Favorite Clothing Brand

OUTFITS
I know it’s quite a statement to claim a favorite brand, but I think my collection may speak for itself. I first discovered Emerson Fry about two years ago when we moved into our new house. As someone who spends a ton of time outdoors and in a swimsuit, coverups are just something I live in during the summer. Emerson Fry makes the prettiest ones (in my opinion!) on the market. The classic India Collection is always my favorite...

A Green and Pink Tablescape for Easter

OUR HOME
There’s just something about setting the table with a pretty linen and decorating for the holidays that gives me all the happy feels. This is the first Easter that we’ll have guests in town and I was inspired to get ahead of the game and start decorating now. Especially with the gorgeous sunshine and 75 degree afternoons we’ve been having. After discovering this beautiful Foxglove tablecloth from Sweetgrass Home, I started browsing table items that would say Spring with...

Saying Goodbye to Winter

OUTFITS
We’re officially on Spring Break over here and I think we just said goodbye to our final freeze of the year. The weather has been all over the place lately but today it’s going to be 80 degrees and the first bluebonnets have made their appearance! I’m feeling all sorts of excited and have already decked out our house with Spring decor: a variety of adorable bunnies and gorgeous faux flowers. While the weather is warming up, I know...

Easy Tuna Salad

RECIPES
Sharing the easiest tuna salad today that makes a great salad topper or dip with crackers. With just 4 ingredients, it has that perfect savory taste with a bit of crunch. Lots of protein + healthy fats make it a great lunch option ;) All you need is a small can of tuna or packet (my favorite are the Starkist pouches), 1 tbs dijon mustard, 1 tbs avocado mayo, and a diced radish for a single serving. I mix...

The Coffee Read No. 2

BLOGGING
Uni Hi Friends. Wow, what a week. We were in Fort Collins with my family over the weekend as the war erupted in Ukraine and I’m still in shock over it and dumbfounded at how much worse it gets by the day. It feels as if the world has constantly turned upside down the last few years and when I feel helpless, I focus on my the things I can control. I turn inward to my family and friends...
