Surprise - it’s 11 because I couldn’t narrow it down. I’ve always struggled with my skin. It’s combination with dry patches and oily patches, so much redness, and acne prone. I rarely go out without make up because of it. The last 6 months I’ve been pouring into my skin care routine with a focus on healing my barrier after too many actives. Here’s what stood the test!

I love a good stocking but sometimes struggle with what to put in them. I want something that isn’t small toys or candy but is usable and won’t clutter my house. Here’s some of my go to options.

We’ve always traveled frequently. Whether it’s visiting family, fun trips, or trips for my son’s medical care we are always traveling. Here’s some of the products I keep on hand to make sure I everything I need, even things I didn’t think of before.

✨ Cozy cabins. Crisp mountain air. Sunsets that spill gold across the peaks. A little slice of heaven tucked away where time slows and peace takes over. 🌲🏔️ Although we live in the mountains there is no place like the Smoky mountains. We’ve been going yearly since we were kids. It’s very touristy so we prefer quick weekend trips, but there’s so many hidden gems tucked away.

I became a much better mother when I started reserving time to care for myself. These things fuel my mind, body, and soul.
