Does anybody else out there really enjoy wrapping presents? I love turning on Christmas music and setting up my wrapping station in the floor next to the tree with the lights on!
But in order to wrap, first you have to have presents! Today’s gift guide is a collection of gifts for your mom or mother-in-law, and everything is under $100.

My Christmas tree has been up since the weekend after Thanksgiving. I have most of my Christmas shopping done, and all the gifts I’ve purchased are wrapped and under the tree. But for some reason, I’m having a really hard time processing that Christmas is NEXT WEEK.
I love all the fun holidays that take place in the early part of the year. I know a lot of people hate Valentine’s Day because of the intense marketing and believe that it’s more about selling products than anything else. Nevertheless, I think all the pajamas and jewelry and decor that are covered in hearts are sweet and fun.
Fun fact: New Year’s Eve is our wedding anniversary! This year we’ll be celebrating year two. We haven’t nailed down any plans just yet, but the great thing about having a New Year’s Eve anniversary is that there are always so many options for celebrating to choose from…
Thanksgiving is right around the corner! I’m so excited to be traveling home to Virginia for my Thanksgiving meal, and I plan on eating SO MUCH sweet potato casserole!
So the big question I have for you today is, are you Team Comfort or Team Dressy for Thanksgiving?
The daffodils and cherry trees are blooming, which means spring is here, right? I was hoping so, but it’s been one rainy and gloomy week and weekend! My parents, who live in Virginia, said it’s rained so much the last week+ that people have been out of school and in landslides. I’m not sure if that’s better than snow or not.
All I know is that there’s one more week of school before spring break, and I AM SO READY.
I’m usually all about some carry-out and a movie at home or Buffalo Wild Wings and some stretchy pants while watching our teams on the big-screen, but sometimes it’s nice to have a scheduled, “dressier than usual” night out. Don’t get me wrong, I like being in my sweatpants or pajamas way more often than dressing up and going out, but it is nice to occasionally have a special date night that involves more than our town’s only steakhouse-like restaurant.
So what better time than Valentine’s Day for a new date night outfit?
Who said Valentine’s Day was just for lovers? Today’s post is a roundup of all the fun things I’ve found to shower your girlfriends with all the love they so obviously deserve!
I’m getting one more quick post in for 2018! And just like the post from Epcot, this one is again focused on delicious snacks you need to eat, but this time at Magic Kingdom! Of all the parks, Magic Kingdom, to me, seems to have the least appealing sit-down restaurants (I’m no fan of buffets and that’s what a lot of them seem to be), so snacking is my go-to at this park.
If you’re anything like us and planning an Epcot trip centered on eating and drinking (and without children), todays post is an overview of some great holiday drinks and snacks that we tried!
