Black Cat Costume and DIY Tutu for Toddlers and Baby Girls

My little kitty cat was so cute this Halloween! I wanted to try my hand at an easy DIY costume for Evelyn rather than buying a pre-packaged option, so I decided on a black cat costume. Mostly, so that I could make her a tutu for twirling. She loved spinning around, meowing at everything, and even crawling atRead more

    Last fall, I told myself to take more days off from work during my favorite way too short season of FALL! Yesterday, on a random Monday, that’s exactly what my family did. My husband and I took off of work, we pulled Evie out of daycare, and enjoyed the perfect fall day togetherRead more

A little reading update πŸ“šβ˜•οΈ ⭐️ The Calamity Club
A little reading update πŸ“šβ˜•οΈ

⭐️ The Calamity Club by Kathryn Stockett was SO good on audio. Five stars from me!

πŸ’• I was reading Happy Place by Emily Henry, but I just wasn’t getting into it, so I set it aside.

πŸ“– Then I picked up The Night We Lost Him by Laura Dave and flew through it! I really enjoyed this one.

Now I need YOUR help deciding what to read next! πŸ‘€πŸ“š

✨ Option 1: A Court of Mist and Fury by Sarah J. Maas β€” fantasy/romantasy πŸ§šβ€β™€οΈ

✨ Option 2: Conform by Ariel Sullivan β€” dystopian πŸ“–

Thanks to @bradylockerby for putting Conform on my radar!

πŸ‘‡ HELP ME CHOOSE! If you could only pick ONE, which would you tell me to read next β€” A Court of Mist and Fury or Conform? And convince me in the comments WITHOUT spoilers! πŸ‘€ I want to know which one will have me staying up way too late turning pages!

Some nights, our family dinner table is the car! πŸ˜‚πŸ” Between hockey, ballet, gymnastics, swim and all the after-school activities, this time of year gets BUSY. I still love finding little moments for us to sit together, catch up and enjoy dinner, even if we’re squeezing it in between stops.

And tonight is extra special because our local @awrestaurants is giving back with a school fundraiser! ❀️ A good dinner, time together and supporting our community, too.

Adding Holy Hill to your fall day trip list πŸ‚πŸ€Ž Such a beautiful spot in Wisconsin, from the stunning basilica and the 178 steps to the tower views to the walking trails filled with fall color. We grabbed lunch at the cafΓ©, browsed the gift shop, and enjoyed a little time exploring together. If you can, I’d recommend visiting during the week when it’s a little quieter!

Have you been to Holy Hill before?
