LightandLifestyled on LTK

Because when your kids grow up, what you want most isn’t things—it’s time. Time to laugh, to wander, to sit a little longer, to make memories that feel like home. This season is teaching me to say yes to the trips, yes to the photos, yes to the memories… even when life feels busy or fleeting. There is truly no better place to slow down, eat all the soft serve, soak up 80-degree sunshine, and just be together than a Disney cruise with our big kids. 🚢 We’re aboard the brand-new ship, and my heart is full. If you’re an empty-nester learning to hold moments a little tighter—this is your reminder: take the trips, take the pictures, make the memories. It is always worth it. Trust me. 🤍🚢✨ LTKmomlife LTKdayinmylife LTKHoliday

Two Target dresses - Fringe for when you want movement and a little drama, velvet for a classic, sleek moment that never goes out of style, and pajamas for how I’m actually ringing in the New Year. The fringe mini brings the fun, the velvet sheath is soft, stretchy, and effortlessly chic, but if you know me at all, you know the real winner is cozy pajamas by the end of the night.

This Christmas, I’m looking back through the year one month at a time each picture telling a story of God’s faithfulness and reminding me that the only thing I’ve ever truly wanted is to be right here with my people, making memories. My hope for you today and this season is that your days are filled with joy, your home overflows with love, and your heart rests in the hope of Jesus—the greatest gift of all. 🎄#christmascard #christmas #memories #emptynesters

The detail you loved most this year… and didn’t even realize it! When I looked back at everything you loved this year, one detail kept showing up again and again—ruffles. Ruffle collars. Ruffle cuffs. We couldn’t get enough… and honestly, we sold them out everywhere. 🤍

But my friend at Blue House Bows just gave us the best style hack—especially for us in perimenopause. These detachable cuffs and collars instantly transform the sweaters you already own, adding that feminine, polished touch without bulk or discomfort.

They layer beautifully, elevate even the simplest knit, and feel timeless—not trendy. These are custom pieces you’ll reach for year after year, season after season.

You can grab them here or in my stories, but don’t wait—this is one of those “why didn’t I think of this sooner?” finds. Go check out Blue House Bows… I promise you’ll be obsessed.
