Getting Clearly Creative


Happy Monday! Am I the only one happy it's Monday?! I worked this weekend therefore this feels like my "Saturday morning." Today will be filled with laundry and staying my pajamas :) Over the weekend, my sister Melissa came home from college. She had this grand idea with our Clearly Creative Escential jar holders from Partylite. We love finding new ways to decorate our holders. This DIY is so simple and inexpensive, it will add so much character to your space! It only takes minutes!!!

TA-DA! She put her Cucumber Ginger Mint Escential jar candle in hers.

Pour in the sand and rocks.

Add succulents and flowers. Then top with your favorite Escential Jar.

I love this on top of my shelf! You can get these beautiful Clearly Creative Escential jar holder here or earn them for FREE through me, of course ;)

Day off

When you have a day off, do you ever feel like there's not enough time in the day?!   I have this anxiety where I feel like we're not going to have a good day if we don't leave early in the morning, if there's not a plan, if we don't get everything prepared to leave on time, if it's too late in the day then we won't get to enjoy the day as much. With our schedules, there's only so many days where we have days off together. Sometimes I need to just let that go and let it be, I stress myself out thinking that way. I worry too much about having the day be perfect with my family that I am not actually enjoying the moment.   This weekend was filled with spontaneous moments with my loves and it was exactly what I needed to let that anxiety go. Friday, my sisters, Lennon and I spent that evening in Santa Cruz visiting a friend that lived down the street from the beach, and my son loves the beach. He said "beach, beach, beach" the whole way there. I

I wish "Mom guilt" never existed...

"Raise your hand if you dislike Monday mornings? After such a busy weekend, there is no time to recover. Monday morning was such an emotional one. Of course I press the snooze button too many times, its 7:30am and I have 15 minutes. Fifteen minutes to get my son dressed, myself dressed, breakfast for Lennon, making sure he actually eats it, find clean clothes for him and I, then its a race to drop him off. For the first time, since he was in preschool last year, he never cried or hugged on to me. When I dropped him off he just hugged onto me, not letting me go. His eyes started to tear up and his arms wrapped around my hips. I just said "Lennon what's wrong?" In that moment, I just felt this sadness. My little four year old that has been so happy and independent, still needs me. Eventually it took two teachers to take his hand to play. I just couldn't help but leave crying all the way to work, and I couldn't stop when I was at work. I sat at my desk and coul

Shrimp Tacos with homemade guacamole

Image
Happy Wednesday! :) I am pushing through the week. Today was beautiful with the sun out, my sister and I took my son to the park. We raced on the basketball court over and over again. It's his new favorite thing to do now and we love to watch him run. He clenches his fists and has his elbows up. It's the cutest thing ever. Now I need a nap but I'd rather blog instead.  Sometimes making a homemade dinner is challenging. Especially when you don't have a whole lot of time or you are just exhausted from your day or week, you want something quick, easy, and good for you! One thing we can always agree on are shrimp tacos. Plus my two year old Lennon loves shrimp and guacamole so why not marry them together in a meal! YES HOMEMADE GUAC!!!! It is seriously the best thing ever I could eat this everyday for the rest of my life, if it was the only thing I had to eat! Lennon eats my guac by the spoonful! I caught him literally grabbing a spoonful and putting the whole th
