Life Lately
what I've been up to...
Piper is a Monday morning mood.
On the bookshelf this week!
Quick morning walks before school are the best way to start our day!
Waiting oh so patiently for the doors to open.
& now it’s time for her 9am nap.
outfits of the week...
For the past few months or so I’ve started *trying* to consistently share my OOTD (outfit of the day) just for fun! I’m typically able to link most pieces, but I also just share it to hopefully give a bit of inspiration & show you that you can recreate my outfits by just using pieces from your own closet.

what Bethany is learning...
My sister, Bethany, is currently doing the Craving Community bible study with a group of friends. She is really learning a lot & is going to share a few things each week that really stood out to her!
1. This week on Monday we met for the final time for our study, Cultivating Community! It was so sweet, and one of the girls who was there came every single week and we got to get really close because of that! One of the things we talked about was how we treasure different friendships and that was really encouraging to me!
2. Our friendships with other Christians should look differently than our friendships with those who are not following Christ.This was a good reminder that we will (and should) have different expectations for those who are following Christ!
3. One of the last things that we talked about was how we can become the friend we are wanting to have! This was so good because the study went through several different qualities that we should be striving for. Some of them that I am personally going to be working on are sympathy, hospitality, and loyalty.
4. Thank you all for following along with me as I started this new journey! We will be doing an introduction next week for our new study, It Is Well, which is a study over anxiety!
in case you missed it...
We ordered a lot in the month of July! Between Prime Day, a couple of weddings & baby showers + back to school shopping! Check out my July prime finds here.
As you may have seen, I started a new weekly post where I share my Weekly Sale Finds! I’ve been sharing them daily on my Instagram stories & I figured I could compile all of them from the week into one post so that y’all can see them, too! You can click here to read that post.
If you follow me on Instagram or LTK, then you’ve probably noticed that I have really stepped up my game when it comes to collages of sales, outfit inspos & new items. Well, that is all thanks to my younger sisters, Bethany & Avery. They’re “poor college students” & my mom & I were looking for some extra help on the blog, so it just made sense to bring them on board! We’ll be compiling all of the collages into one post each week so that they’re all in one place & to give those who don’t use social media a place to find them! Check out their post by clicking here!
Next up is my Friday fashion favs post!! Click here to read that one. It’s a goodie if I do say so myself. ;)
I recently purged my closets & posted about it on Instagram. I had a bunch of people asking if I’d be selling those clothes, so I created a private facebook group to share them! If you’d like to be added to the group, please send your name & email & I’ll get the link sent to ya!
