Finish This

Monday, April 7, 2014

1. I don't get enough...sleep. Not always, but lately I have been exhausted. Moving has caused us to be constantly doing something 24/7. Whether it is unpacking boxes or furniture shopping, we have been non-stop lately and I am worn out. Not to mention my 19 little cherubs that keep my busy all day long.


2. My favorite indulgence is...you guessed it, ice cream! If you've been around this blog for a hot second you know us Tucker's love us some ice cream. We are slightly addicted and I'd say we indulge every night. Hey, you've only got one live to live, right?!


3. I made a major change in my life when...I switched from being in public accounting to being a 5th grade teacher. It was by the grace of God that I was able to make it happen over a short period of time, and I will never regret that decision.


4. You should read...all Emily Giffin books. They're perfect. Don't forget to pre-order her new book here!

5. My secret ingredient is...Uncle Bob's Country Seasoning. You can order it online, but I always get it when I go home and go to market days in Wimberley. It is the best seasoning ever.

PS: I got the idea of this post from the lovely Ruthie :)

House Tour: Girly Guest Bedroom

Sunday, April 6, 2014














Until we have a baby, Chris and I decided that one guest bedroom will be girly and the other will be boyish.

When we moved in, this mint room was the previous owner's nursery. Many of you freaked out when I posted the initial house tour using the other homeowner's photos because y'all thought that was our pregnancy announcement. Nope! I clearly posted that the nursery was the previous owner's, but that just goes to show that blog readers love pictures, not the actual reading part ;) 

Anyways, since we hate painting (it is the worst!) I figured I would work with this mint color. I can say this is turning out to be my favorite room in the house!

Enjoy the tour!

WIWW: Bright Stripes + Link Up!

Tuesday, April 1, 2014




"Chris, take the picture from here down..."



When you become a teacher, the first thing you should do is add bright things to your wardrobe. At the end of the day you will have something on your clothes that was not intended to be there. Secondly, those bright clothes should be cheap.

Take, for instance, this dress I got at Ross for $14.99. Ross does it again! I had a million teachers asking me where I got my dress from and I hate saying Ross because it is not like you can run to Ross and get it. It is always so hit or miss!

Texas has yet to decide if it is going to be hot or cold, so I paired it with boots, but that might have been the last day I wear boots this season. Bring on the sunshine!

Randoms:

- My sunglasses are totally disguising a make-up free face, dark circles, and my pony-tail is hiding messy, dirty hair. STAAR test, I will defeat you.

- Speaking of testing...I never realized how exhausting it is just to monitor the exam. Whew! Standing and pacing for four straight hours is literally exhausting.

- I have $90 of reward money to spend at Banana Republic, Gap, or Old Navy and this weekend THESE shoes will be coming home with me!

- And I am basically craving everything at Nordstrom right now...I am getting the itch to shop...ugh-oh.

- Last night when I told Chris I forgot to get ice cream at the store he said, "It's okay, we can just go to Braum's!" #myplanbackfired #iamtryingtoeathealthyhere

Now for the link up!
- All I ask is you link back to my blog and link to a specific post. 

- Write about something fashion related (accessories, shoes, modeling, make-up, etc.)

And if you're feeling up to it, you can follow me:
