My Monthly Favorites
Monthly favorites posts are roundups of my favorite things each month. These posts could include favorite beauty products, like the hairspray I like or my go-to facial cleanser. Sometimes I talk about current favorite shows, either on TV or streaming services. I also cover any favorite books, music, or movies. I never share any products or entertainment that I have tried out myself and truly love!
My “favorites” posts can also be a glimpse into my life around Richmond, VA. I love to share about restaurants or coffee shops that I’ve been frequenting. Plus, local activities that my whole family enjoys.
I also use these posts as a diary of sorts to really catch readers up on my life for the month! They are more casual and intimate.
April 2021 Favorites
April is usually my favorite month of the year. It’s Jesse and I’s anniversary and the weather is starting to get warm. I love the hope and promise of Spring when the world is coming alive again. But this month, I was not “coming alive.” …

2020 Favorites
The past year has been a whirlwind, for everyone I’m sure. We made the difficult decision to drop everything and move out of our home. We lived with family for 4 months while our old house was on the market and our new house was …
April 2020 Favorites
What a weird month April was! It feels like it flew by, but also lasted forever. Jesse and I celebrated 9 years of marriage with takeout at home, a bottle of wine and a Fast and Furious movie. Those movies typically come out in April, …
March 2020 Favorites
What a weird month March was, huh? At the beginning of the month everyone was going about their business and then BAM! Toilet paper was gone, restaurants closed their dining rooms and schools shut down. Honestly, our family bought extra groceries and started “preparing” for …
February 2020 Favorites
For as long as January felt, February flew by! We are in full swing of our busy season between Jesse’s school, kids’ birthdays and all the little holidays. I’m excited for warmer weather and more time outside though! I’ve basically been hibernating this month (which …
January 2020 Favorites
How is January such a long month?! It seriously feels like it lasts FOREVER! I guess it’s the lull after the holidays that does but, it’s just odd how this month seems to drag. I’ve even been busy this month with tiling our kitchen backsplash, …
