• We got chickens!

    Omg! We have chickens! Never thought I’d be that girl, but here we are! We got baby chicks around Easter time. They are now two months old! My honey just built me the chicken house of my dreams! It’s perfect! Never thought it would be this fun watching chickens roam around! I have the cutest little helper too! Some days I crave the slow sweet days like these even more. My working days in the salon are long and busy! I don’t ever take slow days at home for granted.  Here are some photos of when the chicken house was finished! Save for inspiration!  The chicken coop inside is by…

  • Autumn is here!

    What a way to start my favorite season! A sweet fall soirée with my babies! We had a little decked out tea party then Noah grilled some hot dogs on the fire pit! He loves doing that for us! We are so ready for cooler weather, uggs, sweaters, cozy knits and fuzzy blankets.  Let’s not forget the warm drinks!  I hope this inspires you to do something cozy to get in the fall mood! 

  • Magical memories on the beach! 

    For my birthday this year I told my family I wanted a beach picnic. So we found a beach that was pretty much all to ourselves and we had the most magical time! This is your sign to romanticize your life. The little things, the little moments that you can make even more beautiful! My life can be so full with work sometimes that I make myself slow down with moments like these. I’ll be posting links to what I used! Make sure and tag me on Instagram with your photos!  https://www.instagram.com/gladystheblog/ Picnic table  https://rstyle.me/+BRN5s59VZt5MN0w13NHBrg Candles https://rstyle.me/+q9Am4UBVV1NgBpXGI88Gwg Would you believe I found the picnic basket at Goodwill? Oh my gosh,…

  • Do you believe in love languages?

    Do you believe in love languages?  It’s February my friends. The month of Love! Sweetest 28 days of the year! Although I always aim to live a life I love and love the ones I’m around, this month is special because I can express my love with extra sweets.  I really do!! I feel that everyone loves different, and the way people FEEL loved is different!  I can already see by now that my 8 year olds love language is physical touch. She will never get enough hugs and kisses. She will hold my hand forever! It’s what makes her feel loved and secure. I’m down with that!  My 6…

I’m making a list of my 2018 trips and so far I’m counting 6 amazing trips!  On this post I will tell you guys all about our San Francisco trip!! It was my first time ever going to California.

My hair in mostly every photo was gone with the wind!! LOL The vibe there was very chill and every…

  • Girl! Take some time off!

    Alright listen! I am all about working hard and staying motivated, always doing the most! Yes, I am an owner of two business plus all my mom and home duties. I am grateful I get to chose what days I get to work and which ones I don’t. This year I’ve already taken more than a hand full of trips and they were wonderful. That is usually what we do to get away and recharge. I love the feeling of being somewhere else and not having to worry about the dirty dishes in the sink, and the mess the kids made. So we really do dig that hotel life. Let…
