I'm so proud of the beauty and the faith that this collection shares. It perfectly aligns with how I want my kids to understand and cherish Christmas. I'm thankful for my dad's example and for the light that these images share with the world.

Happy Saturday friends! Today I'm posting a round up of all of my recent Instagram outfits.

You know the feeling of showing up early, being totally prepared and ready to give 100%? Yeah, me either. Especially lately. Over the past few months, I think I have been better than ever at solidifying my reputation for being late,

Hey, hey, Monday after a long weekend. Let me tell you—I was not prepared for today. I got up early with good intentions, and then Abercrombie sucked me into their Cyber Monday sale, and next thing I knew it was time to get kids on the bus.

And just like that, it's Thanksgiving week! The temps have finally dropped and just in the knick of time. Here in Kansas City we have all been pretending to need boots and sweaters for the last few weeks.

It's November 18, and it's a big day for our family! First, today is Soren's birthday. He's turning one year older, and we're excited to celebrate him. He is such a great dad, husband, business partner, and example. He's one of the smartest men I know, and I've learned so much from him.

This outfit is one of my favorites so far this year. Unfortunately the top is sold out, but this clutch, these pants, and these shoes are total holiday staples. This furry clutch comes in several colors, and I LOVE the texture it adds to this outfit.

It's been a while since I bought clothing from Target for myself. Not that I don't always look and not that I don't usually find things that I like, but I usually stop myself.

When I first started my blog, I had recently rediscovered thrifting. For several years, shopping at thrift stores was my favorite retail therapy. I now shop almost exclusively online - for myself, my kids, and Soren. And until a little while back, that meant no more thrifting. Enter thredUP.
