Hi friends!

Hope you are doing well! Alright I know it isn’t even Thanksgiving yet, but we are already in the Christmas mood! One thing our family loves to do around this time is stock up on our matching Christmas pjs. And with our growing family I love finding quality clothing for my family for a great price.

Last Friday I had planned to post my Friday Favorites with this outfit, but after waking up and finding out another school shooting happened not even 15 miles from where I live, I became an emotional wreck. All the fears, anxiety, and guilt as a mom overwhelmed me.

This month we welcomed in our new addition to our family, Rocky Rotel Darnell. We decided to add to our pet family with our first family dog.

Who says you can’t pattern mix when it comes to fashion? I am probably the biggest perpetrator when it comes to mixing pattern. I love Aztec prints and though most people like to pair it with solid colors, I loved how it coordinated perfectly with this black and white striped dress. I recently picked up this one on sale at H&M and I love how versatile it is. It’s perfect for pairing up with brown over the knee boots or with casual black canvas shoes.

It was a crazy time for me and my husband, we were house hunting, last minute trying to get everything ready for our new bundle of joy. I didn’t really have time to count my blessings at that time, but I also didn’t realize how much my life would change since then.
