1. BOYS Under One Roof
You know how happy it makes me to have all the kids together. What a help they have been. Cherish these times!
The college boys couldn't even wait to cuddle before we got the bunks set up.
So excited to share life in person again!

2. Sugar and Spice Pecans
I meant to share this recipe on Tuesday for Tasty Tuesday but I didn't get shots so I snapped this one to add today because you really might want to make these for the Holidays! THEY ARE THE BOMB! My mom and I both make them every year. The recipe is from a dear co-worker of mine who was killed in a car accident about 12 years ago and so I make them every year in her honor.

4. Red Poncho
I LOVE my red poncho. My favorite way to style it was HERE but jeans, a white tee, Hunter's and a hair tie will work too. This is the last photo taken at the old house.

5. Misc.Fun
Baking My Spirits Bright My dear friend Kellyann from This Blonde's Shopping Bag thought of the perfect gift to send me. She knows I love to bake as does she and so these were the perfect gift for the new home. Plus, I’ve added a touch of red to the kitchen for Christmas and needed oven mitts and dishtowels. This gal is the real deal and has become a dear friend of mine.

First Selfie in new Closet
So, it's obvious I suck at Selfies but I couldn't resist one in the new closet. The marble island top gets installed today. I had to laugh because this was the only angle I could get where there wasn't a complete mess in the background. #organizingnewclosetgoals. I was sporting the outfit from Wednesday but added some festive red to it for a morning of last minute shopping. I look so beat down, wore down so trying to stay as festive as possible.
Thank you to Rolando from Closet Craft for making my dreams become reality.
