hugs for rugs!

I have a serious love for a good rug. They truly spruce up any room in a house and just add an extra element of cozy + pretty! I literally spent weeks trying to decide on a rug for our family room and Boutique Rugs had exactly what I envisioned and now I am fully convinced that pretty rugs = happiness. 

Check out Boutique rugs for amazing quality rugs. Oh and they are affordable too! You'll feel like you're winning at life!

THIS season is my absolute favorite when it comes to styling. Cooler weather + holidays...gimme alllllll the layers. Black and white + a pop of color always brings me joy and we love mixing higher end brands with affordable pieces. Emmy's Monnalisa shirt + Burberry peacoat, Hudson's mini Marc Jacobs hoodie and Hattie's Microbe dress + Burberry coat all come from P O K Fashion, an online shop that we absolutely adore!

sunsational swim school

At the end of summer, the kids took swim lessons with Sensational Swim School. The big kids both knew how to swim, but they both needed some pointers and so having someone come to us and teach lessons seemed like the best way to go. We were truly blown away with sensational swim school!! Our kids are 1 5 and 7 and all different skill levels. Our swim instructor was Caroline Murphy and she was phenomenal. Caroline was super fun, energetic and so good at what she does. My kids loved her immediately. She came prepared with lots of little pool toys and was very professional. Two of our kids have hearing loss and Caroline had no problem communicating with them through demonstration and illustrations that she brought. She is truly exceptional. I have been so impressed with her and highly recommend Sunsational Swim School.

two week countdown.

Summer is the best on so many levels. We really do love it. The end of summer however gives me many different feelings. Hot, tired, drained...to name a few. Entertaining these tiny people daily is wonderful yet exhausting. There IS something special about the start of a new school year though. All new gear + a fresh new start. So fun! With all of this back to school excitement the kids have been having fun playing "school" around here and so we got them the sweetest little matching Stuck on You backpacks with their names on them and it is the absolute cutest. 

These backpacks + loads of other fun school items available
