Hello, lovelies! In my childhood, 4th of July was the holiday I kind of brushed aside. As an adult, though, 4th of July is one of my favorite holidays (right under Christmas and Halloween). It’s a time to celebrate our country, and it also happens to come with yummy food and fireworks with friends. MyRead more

Hello, lovelies! Tis the season! I never considered myself one of those crazy Christmas people that counts the amount of Friday’s left until Christmas. When October rolled around this year, though, I was ready to put up my tree. Maybe because here in Kentucky it has been a little cooler than usual this fall, butRead more
Hello, lovelies! July was divine. Partially because I pursued a lot of my hobbies more. Although teachers don’t truly have summers off, I definitely took some “me” time in July. Though I didn’t even complete all of my goals for July, I thought I would sit down and share in inspirations for August. This month,Read more
