Can you spot the vacuum trying to help me clean up

Can you spot the vacuum trying to help me clean up after five humans and three fur 🐶 babies 🤪?!! AD You know you’re an adult when you get excited about a new vacuum😆!!!

I got a robovac a few years ago but it died pretty quickly. This eufy vacuum came highly recommended and with great reviews!! My favorite thing about it is that I can operate it with an app from my phone! I try to run this thing every night and it just brings me so much satisfaction and joy 😂!!

Not sure about you, but I have started to put things aside for gifting this holiday season! I would love to be ahead of the game!! Sharing a few electronic gift ideas in stories this evening that you can screenshot and save for later!! #walmarthome @walmart shop here ▶️ http://liketk.it/3pELa @shop.ltk 📸 @etchedintime_photography

Fitness/health journey update! I believe earlier t

Fitness/health journey update! I believe earlier this year I had shared with you guys that I was doing keto. It was awesome and helped me pull off a good amount of weight that I was holding onto due to good old 2020 LOL! Lately, I have been focusing on getting my protein in every day and watching macros instead of truly dieting!! I’ve also stopped obsessing over the scale😯. OrangeTheory has also been an absolute game changer!!! What’s been working for you fitness/health-wise lately?!!

Have you ever stretched yourself beyond what you n

Have you ever stretched yourself beyond what you normally could handle just because you were really thinking big picture!?!!!

Some of you know this, but I worked as a nurse for 17 years. The last 5 years of my career I was doing content creation/blogging at the same time! Right at the tail end of me leaving my nursing career was the most stressful. I felt like I was falling apart (cried almost everyday), but I knew that it would be worth it!

My confidence, my strength and my drive are fully reliant on my Savior Jesus Christ! He gets me through it all and y’all know that my faith is everything!!!!

We moved to this beautiful property back in June and it has easily become an oasis for my family. Creating date nights at home are easy, enjoyable and romantic with such a stunning view! It honestly feels like a little escape. This week's Fall picnic date night included the amazing red @avaline wine. All of their blends are delicious, but this one has easily become one of our favorites! This amazing wine can be found at the following retailers: @target, @safeway, and @totalwine #avalinepartner. 📸 @etchedintime_photography

ONE YEAR AGO TODAY I left a 17 year career in nurs

ONE YEAR AGO TODAY I left a 17 year career in nursing to pursue blogging/content creation full time!!! I had been doing both for 5+ years and it was time to take the leap!! I started as a thrifter with no money and a big love for purses, shoes and pretty tops(swipe left)! My first follows on Instagram who made me want to start blogging was @shalicenoel and @brittanyxavier (they thrifted at first as well). I worked with what I had, which wasn’t much and I decided when I started documenting my outfits in 2015, I wasn’t going to stop.

In January of 2020 I met @ashley_dorough who introduced me to the @blogist.co team. My life has forever been changed by the hard work, passion and tenacity of this team for all things influencer marketing and my business. Love you @juliangreene and @angierachelle ✨🌟✨

One big encouragement for anyone with dreams that feel too big- absolutely NOTHING is impossible. This past year I was able to work with dream brands like Anthropologie, West Elm, Levi’s, Amazon, Target… the list goes on. Speak it, believe it, do the work and trust God. My forever favorite scripture is “Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us…” Eph. 3:20
All glory to God ✨
