Love is in the air or least on the brain. This Valentines Day let’s spoil those special men in our lives. Normally Valentines Day is all about the ladies but this year I am ready to celebrate my main man. Traditionally, Valentines Day is not one of my favorites as I consider it a ‘Hallmark’ Holiday and believe we should be celebrating love everyday. BUT this year I am super grateful for all Brendan does so he will be receiving a few Valentines gifts ♥.
A few of the items on the list are a bit of a splurge but I tried to vary up the price points. Hoping this sparks some new inspiration for Valentines gifts but let’s no forget about some of the classics like cologne, clothes and candy. A few of these ideas actually came straight from Brendan’s wish list so here’s hoping your Valentine has similar taste!! Ha

The countdown has begun. Christmas is less than two weeks away. That means family, cooking, presents and love. You kitchen is about to get really busy! Not sure about you but I am so incredibly excited for it all. We are a family that has a lot of traditions and so many of them are centered around the kitchen and eating. Whether it be making food together, gathering around the dining table or just hanging out in the kitchen drinking wine (I mean hot coca) and laughing.
Despite the first day of December being only a few days behind us the holiday season is in full swing. If you are like me, you haven’t even started your shopping yet. And if you are like me, you need all the help you can get. So, today I rounded up some toddler gift ideas. Last week on Instagram you expressed interest in a toddler gift guide and honestly I was really happy as it helped me make some decisions on what we are going to get Declan. Toddlers can be tricky to buy for as their attention and preferences change with the wind! BUT I am hoping this toddler gift guide helps you find something for each of your little ones!
Can you believe Christmas morning is just a few short weeks away.??? This year I am so excited to spend Christmas up in the mountains with my parents. It will be just magical! Here’s hoping for a white Christmas morning. How are you spending your Christmas morning???

This year I wanted to give you some inspiration for making December 25 even more festive and enjoyable. Everything is under $100 and some of personal favorites are even under $50 like this MUG, these BOOKS and this face MASK . I made sure to include items for you (the lady of the house), the kiddos, your man and the home. One of the things I love the most about Christmas morning is all the fun decor that sets the scene. Like these DISHES and this fun DISH TOWELwhich is under $10. I suspect that most kiddos are up super early on Christmas morning but if they aren’t or even if they are this cable knit THROW ,which comes in 6 other colors, is perfect for snuggling by the fire . If wearing Christmas pajamas doesn’t spark the magic on Christmas morning I am not sure what will so I found perfect ones for YOU, for the KIDDOS and for HIM. Keep your toes warm in these cozy $89 SLIPPERSthat will also be perfect for the rest of your chilly winter nights.
After presents, in our family, we end of lounging around while the kiddos play with their new toys. After the chaos of Christmas morning fades and everyone chills out I wanted to make sure the adults were still entertained. This KINDLE and this CAMERA are great for the parents to “play” with on Christmas morning. In all honesty I love Christmas almost more than any other day of the year… I mean who doesn’t?!? Ha. But adding little touches of fun holiday decor, clothes and games is a great way to keep the magic of Christmas alive.
What are your favorite X-mas morning must haves?? Do you have any fun or long standing fun traditions that your family does? Share them with me- I would love to hear them.
