Okay, I honestly didn't think I would ever tell this story because to be honest, it is kind of embarrassing haha! It makes me out to be a little spoiled, but I promise I was not usually like this (at all)! I just had a huge passion for animals and decided to make a rash decision... just keep reading... Thinking back on this story, the one thing that always comes to my mind is - how did I get away…

Okay, we are officially one week into the New Year... How are everyone's resolutions going? I am going to be honest, I have had a slow start. I blame the whole "holiday hangover" I talked about the other day. It's tough to get back into a routine after the holidays, especially when you are implementing new goals and habits. Today I started one I am really excited about, drinking 90 oz of water a day! So far I am peeing…

Happy 2019! Is anyone else in complete denial that the year is over?! I always feel like it goes by so fast, but if you think back to who you were in the beginning on 2018 you have changed so much. I know some people make fun of New Year's Resolutions, but I love them! I like any excuse to start fresh and make new goals, I think that's part of the reason I actually like Mondays! I have posted…

Happy New year's Eve! I honestly can't believe it's already here, this year has flown by! 2018 was one of my best years yet, you can read my recap here if you missed it! Like any year, it was filled with some ups and downs, but I learned a lot and wouldn't have changed a thing! For today's posted I wanted to bring you guys back to exactly one year ago on last year's New Year's Eve, the day I…

Last year I did a post like this where I went through every month of the year, talked about my monthly highs and lows, and recapped my favorite blogposts. I can honestly say that 2018 was my best year yet! If you have been following me for awhile, you would know 2017 was a rough year. I pride myself in being someone who can find the best in everyday, but I had a lot of hardships. That quote about not…

Disclaimer: I am in NO WAY trying to brag by posting this. Holidays in my family have always been huge. We are really close and love to spoil each other. I feel so thankful for everything I have and I know that I do not deserve any of it! Watching my parents come from nothing and work hard to provide for their family just motivates me to do the same for my future family and others. xoxo Merry Christmas (or…

Haha remember when I said I was going to post 24 gift guides a few weeks ago? Welllll... that was a fail. Honestly you guys have no idea how long these take to make! I made six gift guides on Thanksgiving and felt so overwhelmed. I ended up spending Black Friday and the rest of my weekend just relaxing and spending time with my family. I felt guilty for promising them and then not following through, but as days went…
