Rain, Rain Please Come

Lets be honest, it doesn’t rain much in San Antonio, but when it does, it pours! I have wanted a cute pair of hunters for a long time, but haven’t been able to justify buying them for the minimal rain we get here in Texas. However, when Cloggs offered to send them to me in exchange for this review, I was ecstatic! Pink is my favorite color, so it didn’t take long to decide what color to get. I am loving walking around the house in them! Yup, thats right, around the house. Kevin gets a good laugh at me in them with my shorts, but seriously, I am dying to have a rainy day so I can wear them in public and not look ridiculous.
 
Also, can we please talk about this dress?! I am so in love with it. I’m sorry to say that it is currently sold out, but you can get on an email list in case they restock it. I have been wearing it casually with my jack rogers and dressing it up with heels and a sparkly j.crew necklace. It even has pockets! & it’s one of the best dresses I have picked up all summer.
 
Now that summer is coming to a close, I am getting sad to say goodbye to pool time and sunshine. However, I am excited that fall is coming because that means Kids’ Praise at work (musical the kids rehearse every week to perform in November), cool evenings and sweater weather! Also, as each day passes I’m getting more and more excited about our vacation! What excites you most about fall?

    I wish I could send you some of our rain! I feel like that’s all it’s been doing here in Pittsburgh all summer. So frustrating! Maybe I should look into getting a pair of these boots! lol

    You are so adorable! Love, love those boots on you!

    I’ve been wanting a pair for so long too but I just feel like it doesn’t rain enough for me to need them. Then every time it does rain (or snow), I’m like, well obviously I DO need some. And then it just becomes a cycle. #girlproblems haha

    Love & need these! I seriously lived in Hunter’s all last winter for about six months straight with all the snow and ice on the ground! They’re great for winter too 😉

    I love that color! I really want a pair of Hunter rain boots. I think they’re essential for college students. Too bad I’m a college student who can’t exactly afford them.

  • #ad #RubbermaidAmbassador Resetting my tween’s bathroom didn’t require a full makeover… just smarter swaps 👏🏻

I found these Rubbermaid bathroom essentials at @Walmart while doing a late-night scroll (because that’s when moms get things DONE 😅), and I love how they instantly made her space more organized and functional.

The Rubbermaid Mesh Pockets Shower Liner has been a game changer for keeping everything organized and the Rubbermaid Instamat™ Tub Mat gives me peace of mind with its non-slip design + easy hang-to-dry feature.

Both are BPA-free, kid-friendly, and designed to stay fresh longer—which means less work for me 💛

Small changes can make a BIG difference.

  • Super excited to watch Brooke step onto the stage for her first dance recital 💃🏽✨

She decided to try something completely new and joined a hip hop class this year!

Definitely outside of her comfort zone — and I couldn’t be more proud of her for sticking with it, growing in confidence, and having fun along the way.

Can’t wait to cheer on our girl today for two performances! 🎤🪩
