Sweet snuggly girl!
Dinner was sub in a tub! Recipe linked here.
Game night!
Piper enjoyed her evening, too.
Beautiful evening for a walk!
Both of my sisters read it ends with us so we decided to watch! We thought it was so good!!
My sister joined the candle warmer club recently & she loves hers, too!
Made my dad try on some of my new prescription sunglasses & my sisters & I all think he looks like pitbull lol
Here is what they look like on me!
I love how much Piper still loves her outdoor dog bed!
Another beautiful evening for a walk!
“you look happier”
“thanks, I finally painted my toes after 5+ weeks post op & I feel like a girl again”

Dinner!
Stopped in to see my sister for a mid-week massage. There’s truly nothing better than that post-massage bliss!
When your nails match your pjs >
I’ve been hearing frogs jumping in the window well, so I made my dad do a catch & release mission lol my sisters & I did this to him ALL THE TIME when we all lived here together!
Poor Piper is not a fan of the fireworks.
Dorito taco salad for lunch. Here is the recipe!
We used our little shredder attachment for the cheese for our lunch! So satisfying lol
Lazy Sunday afternoon means popcorn + a movie with the fam!
Praying that my days with these crutches are coming to an end.
A beautiful evening at the dog park!
With surprise guests!
My siblings & I got Avery this faux fern as a house warming gift & it’s so cute + looks so real!
Piper was a bully & barked at my parent’s neighbor while walking her dog, so like any good mom would, I made her apologize. Watch my short Instagram reel here to watch lol.
I’m obsessed with this viral colorful bubble initial necklace. So cute for summer & will be a fun pop of colors for school, too!
Piper & I feel the same way about my coffee lol
Piper got some snuggles from my grandma while her car was getting serviced. Piper was a happy girl!
PTL!!! I was cleared to walk + drive in my boot this week at my appointment!!! I will have to stay in the boot for at least four weeks, but I’m so thankful to have some of my freedom back!
Piper & I moved back to my house. I started watching Bachelor in Paradise. Are any of you watching?? What are your thoughts? It’s very much giving Love Island vibes to me, but I’m not totally mad about it.
My sisters & I stumbled across an absolute gem! Ten summers ago, right before I left for college, I wrote each of the girls 31 handwritten “open when” letters. omg they are precious!!!
So cute to see what 18-year-old-Alli wrote to them (probably stole from Pinterest) & what 11-year-old-Avery & thirteen-year-old-Bethany cried over (literal tear stains all over the letters)! Watch my Instagram reel here.
A little sunshine + reading in the backyard is my ideal kind of afternoon!
My dad is the cutest lol he loves K-State football season!!
Two happy girls to be home!
Cutie little visitor while Piper & I were outside.
in case you missed it...
Here is the top 10 post of most loved items (both from just Amazon & other stores as well) by all of you for the month of June!
If you follow me on Instagram or LTK, then you’ve probably noticed that I have really stepped up my game when it comes to collages of sales, outfit inspos & new items. Well, that is all thanks to my younger sisters, Bethany & Avery. They’re “poor college students” & my mom & I were looking for some extra help on the blog, so it just made sense to bring them on board! We’ll be compiling all of the collages into one post each week so that they’re all in one place & to give those who don’t use social media a place to find them! Check out their post by clicking here!
I am focusing on my health & wellness during 2025 with LiveGood. If you’re interested in clean, healthy, AFFORDABLE products, i would be happy to share some info with you. There is a quick, easy & FREE health assessment (linked here) that will show you what products are best for your needs & goals. + some info on how to earn some extra $$ along the way (linked here).
& if you’re not ready to commit to anything yet, that’s ok! I’m thankful you’re here regardless. & I hope you stick around for cute clothes + my health journey!
