One thing that irritates me is spending a small fortune on snacks every time we left the house, so i try to do this before we leave the house. I pack one snackle box with grab-and-go snacks and another insulated snackle box with sandwich fixings, so we're always ready for pool days, the park, soccer games, dance competitions, road trips, or any other summer adventure. It keeps everyone happy, saves us money, and makes it so much easier to avoid last-minute drive-thru stops and overpriced concession stand snacks. It's such a simple system, but it's made a huge difference for our family this summer. Comment "SNACK" and I'll send you the links to these snackle boxes. The individual lids and built in ice packs are game changers! Plus, every mom needs an insulated cooler tote bag.

I love a good excuse to be a little extra… but I also know i need to go into it with a solid plan if I want to do everything I’m envisioning.

this baby shower was so fun to put together, I’ve learned that I really love hosting, especially with a fun theme. We wanted to do a Baby in Bloom theme and when I started planning the food, I thought it would be so fun to do an at home café set up of sorts. So my inspiration here became a spring garden café.

I had so many fun ideas to do for decorations, the drink bar all the food. But none of those ideas become reality unless you actually put together a plan, and every aspect of this party started with a checklist in my Notes app. Then the week of the party I put all of the cleaning, decorating, set up, and food tasks into our digital calendar so I wouldn’t forget a thing. Plus, it is so fun to check off these tasks, especially when you finish your list for the day and it gives you that surprise confetti.

I’m hosting a baby shower at our house this weekend and just added every single cleaning and setup task to my skylight calendar so the whole family can jump in and check things off. Just having a central place to put things like this so everyone can see what needs to be done is super helpful for reducing my mental load.

One less thing to trip over🙌🏻

These rug grippers are a small thing that make a huge difference! They keep rugs and runners in place without damaging the floors. No more tripping and constantly straightening your rugs.

If you’ve got rugs that won’t stay put or are tired of almost wiping out, this might be really helpful for you too.

It's dance competition season so today I'm labeling all of my daughter's outfits, accessories, tights, shoes, makeup, and more.

If your kids are in school, daycare or activities, you know how often things go missing so I'm not taking any chances!

Making name labels is super simple with this label maker, just design in the free app and print! I used iron-on labels on fabrics and regular adhesive labels for the rest.

#LTKmomlife #LTKHome #LTKKids

I’ve been attempting to put together better outfits lately and so many outfits I save involve a denim shirt so I’ve been shopping for one! Couldn’t say no to the fun hearts.

Monday working at the office - tried the denim on denim trend today and not sure how I feel about it but I do love the little hearts!

started my Soup Sundays again so looking forward to my leftover soup for lunch today

going to spend my lunch break creating an itinerary and packing lists for an upcoming girls weekend because I’m for sure the one in the group chat who volunteers to make us a spreadsheet😂

Hoping to watch an episode of Stranger Things! We rarely watch tv together and watched the first couple seasons years ago so we stayed back over at season one last week.

I purged. I condensed. I reorganized over and over again.

But here’s the truth I finally had to admit: we’re just a crafty family, and our supplies aren’t getting any less.

For a while, I kept wondering if my kids would “grow out of it”… but I really don’t think that’s happening for us. So instead of fighting the mess, I changed the container.

This new cabinet spans the entire width of this little wall and is taller too, which means we were finally able to fit almost everything inside. No more overflow pile on the side stressing me out.

I also designated the entire top shelf for craft kits that need to be used up, and we’re officially making it a goal to actually do them. 👏

Sometimes the problem isn’t your organizing skills, it’s the storage you’re trying to force to work.

Feels like 10 degrees outside but I still got my steps in for the day thanks to my walking pad. Knocked out 2 miles all while troubleshooting a tech issue on my blog. That was annoying but l I love having the option to move at my desk! affiliate

Happy Small Stuff Saturday⬇️

I didn’t deep clean my whole kitchen… just this one little spot. Small Stuff Saturday is our reminder that progress doesn’t have to be all or nothing. Every Saturday, I tackle one small house project in under 30 minutes. No waiting until I have more time, no overwhelming projects. And honestly? These tiny resets add up faster than you think.

Today’s win: a cleaned + reorganized coffee station. If your house feels stuck, try starting small. One drawer. One shelf. One corner. That’s it.

✨What’s one little house project you’d like to tackle this weekend? Let me know in a comment and I will cheer you on!

Ready for bed. Time to unplug and read for a while!

I met up with a few college friends last year and we did a book swap. We’ve been mailing the books to each other all year and everyone adds notes and flags their thoughts as they read. It’s been really fun!

This book is amazing, I’ve read a couple others in this series on audio and they are all good!

Also the best book light ever right here.

Grabbed this $6 necklace at Walmart last night and think it’s cute! I haven’t worn a bigger necklace like this in years but I’ve noticed others sharing this one and thought it was adorable with their outfits.

Do you think this is a valentines season only or can I wear it year round?

We finally bought a new dishwasher and microwave and it’s revolutionary to me just how quiet this dishwasher is. We splurged a bit to get this dishwasher model with some extra features and you guys, the ball bearing slides on the racks are a JOY to use. Seriously the selling point to me, they feel so sturdy and just roll sooooo smoothly. Once I tried these, nothing else in the store compared.

I’m no expert in appliances, just simply sharing what we ended up getting since some have asked. I found Lowe’s links for you here but we shopped at a local appliance store and got a full education in dishwashers from the amazing sales rep.

got all spiffed up for my company holiday party last night. we weren’t out crazy late or anything but getting home at 10pm is definitely past my bedtime🤣 this Walmart dress was a winner!!

#LTKHoliday #LTKgrwm #LTKFindsUnder50

Logan gave me this blanket for my bday last month and I didn’t think I needed another blanket by oh my is this one the softest, coziest thing! I’ve used it daily. It’s a winner if you need a simple $15 gift! found the mug at hobby lobby!

Ran to Target to pick up my order and this beefy dude made me chuckle the whole drive home.🤣 Logan saw this stuffed animal rhino a while ago and giggled so much, had to get it for Christmas! Linking some other toys we’re getting him if you’re looking for gifts for 4 year olds.

Wrapping paper organizers at every price point! Organizing gift wrap can be done many ways - here are some of my favorite picks.

#LTKHoliday #LTKSeasonal #LTKHome

My hidden wrapping part organizer is officially in Christmas mode 🎁✨ I swapped out the everyday birthday/celebration supplies and loaded it up with all things holiday—gift bags, tags, tissue, ribbon, and rolls. Nothing fancy… just a super functional spot that makes wrapping 100x easier during the busiest month of the year. Highly recommend this gift wrap organizer and all things Elfa at The Container Store

Our Elf on the Shelf refilled the gumball machine with red and green balls! Hershey kisses inside each. My kids play with this vending machine all the time and usually fill the balls with little toys/trinkets

#LTKHoliday #LTKKids #LTKmomlife

It’s time to get your wrapping paper organized! Gift wrapping season is here and it’s soooo much more enjoyable to wrap presents when you are stocked up on supplies and they are easy to find and grab.

Here are a few ideas for organizing things, depending on your space.

#LTKHome #LTKHoliday #LTKmomlife

My very favorite vacuum mop is as low as I’ve ever seen it for Black Friday, and I had to share. If you’ve got kids, pets, crumbs, spills, or just… floors 😂 this thing is a total game changer.

It vacuums and mops at the same time, cleans up sticky messes in seconds, and honestly makes my house feel cleaner with way less effort. One of my favorite Amazon purchases EVER.

This tote bag is epic! I’ve had it for years and it’s held up to so much. There’s a fantastic price on several colors! We pack clothes for the whole fam in this one bag for overnight trips! I’ve also used it to lug all the baby stuff on weekends away, haul gifts to family Christmas, blankets and stuffies for sleepovers, etc

It's baking season and time to get our baking supplies all stocked up and organized so we’re ready to make all the yummy treats in the weeks ahead. What’s your favorite thing to bake this time of year?

I don’t have a pantry or a ton of extra upper cabinet storage, so I adopted this lower cabinet in our kitchen island to hold all of our baking supplies. Adding this pull out drawer was super simple and a total game changer for being able to easily see an access all of our supplies without having to rummage through the back of a cabinet because that would be super annoying.

I love these clear containers from @thecontainerstore for everything. They fit really well in the drawer, keep everything fresh, and make it easy to see how much I have of each ingredient at a glance. I added nice labels with my @cricut machine and now I just love this little baking cabinet!

Kpop Demon Hunters birthday party! We had Dr. Han juice pouches and ramen cups to fill up with popcorn and candy. These balloon stands are the bets for parties!

#LTKParties #LTKFamily #LTKKids

My daughter’s canvas painting birthday party was so fun! We set up tables in our garage, covered with brown paper and set up a station for each girl. I cut out the letters with my Cricut Maker ahead of time, they painted them, then pulled off the letters at the end. Such a fun birthday party craft! Was a big hit with second graders. This was the big activity during her Kpop Demon Hunters birthday party

#LTKFamily #LTKKids #LTKParties

If you know K-pop Demon Hunters, you know we need Ramen cups! Used a template from Etsy to create the design with the names. Then I exported those as images and uploaded those images back into Canva using the 9oz cup wrapper template to size them to wrap around a cup. Printed at staples and attached with double sided tape. Instead of ramen, we’re filling these with popcorn and candy for Chloe’s KPop Demon Hunters birthday party.

#LTKKids #LTKParties #LTKFamily

Can’t forget Dr Han’s drinks for our daughter’s K-pop Demon Hunters birthday party. We printed these at Staples, cut out, and stuck to the back of Capri Sun using double sided tape
👌🏽

#LTKParties #LTKKids #LTKFamily

This balloon pump is the MVP of all party decor! We also love the balloon garland kits to decorate for parties and I use a plastic tablecloth for the backdrop. Metallic balloons feel so special! This was for a KPop Demon Hunters birthday party

#LTKKids #LTKFamily #LTKParties

Such a cute Halloween pillow! This little DIY ghost pillow was such an easy fall craft. I promise, no sewing or anything complicated required. DIY Halloween idea you can do in an hour or less!
