Happy Sunday! Today we did something for the first time - went on an axe throwing date! See my stories for how well we did haha 🙌🏻 There’s a brewery right by our house that has an axe throwing area attached to it...what a great combination right? 🤪🍺⛏ . Trying new things together keeps things fun and interesting in marriage and in dating, especially when it’s something you can get competitive and cheer each other on with! What’s something new you and your partner have tried doing together?

We have so many of @lulebloom’s flower headbands, but these pumpkin headbands are next level!! @lulebloom’s fall drop is today, which includes so many lovely fall floral accessories plus these little beauties 🎃🍂...but she’s almost sold out of these pumpkin ones!! If you haven’t yet, run to her page and snag one for your mini! . Also, tell me all your favorite fall traditions to do with kiddos! Is it hay rides? Pumpkin patch visits? Homemade hot chocolates? I’m so excited to experience seasons and holidays with Izzy this year, now that she can actually participate!

I won’t be 30 for another few months, but you guys...I think that turning the page to a new decade of life is so exhilarating!!! Even though 90% of what I see online and in articles casts “turning 30” in a negative light. But like….why?! The thought of turning 30 is SO EXCITING TO ME! There is so much life to be lived still, and I am runninggg toward my 30th birthday. Mostly because I’m totally fine with leaving my 20s in the rear view. They were good, but I know my 30s will be so much better. _ There are so many things I want to do and accomplish before I turn 30 next April, so I made a list on the blog and wanted to share it with you today! _ Hopefully it inspires you to look forward to your next big birthday instead of cringe at it, and know that you don’t have to have it all together or have accomplished all the things to be living a full, wonderful life. _ Click the link in my bio to read my full list of 29 things I want to do before 30! ✨💃🏼

This is such a busy week for me! Yesterday I made a spontaneous trip to Disneyland to see @racheal.hanson, tomorrow I’m spending the day in Palm Springs for @valxo_xo’s bachelorette party, Saturday John and I are going to LA to see the Taking Back Sunday + Coheed and Cambria concert with some friends (anyone else religiously listen to them in high school? 🙋🏼‍♀️), and Sunday we will start packing our moving boxes!! Talk about being B U S Y! 💃🏼 _ What are your favorite ways to find calm during your busy season? I live for the alone time I get during Izzy’s naps - usually I’ll read a book, do a devotional, shower, or just sit on the couch for 30 mins and relax listening to my wind chimes in the breeze. Those little quiet moments of pressing pause are what get me through the day! How bout you?

New on the blog: COMMUNICATION IN MARRIAGE // With John and I being on opposite schedules (he works nights), it really challenges our communication, patience and quality time we have with each other. But instead of wishing the situation would change and fighting over it, we’ve tried our best to adapt to his schedule and make appropriate internal changes in the ways we approach each other about our feelings or needs. 🥊 Today on the blog, I’m featuring my friend Mel from @confessionsofaworkinprogress who will be sharing her experience on communication in her 4 years marriage, and how to be mindful of each other when “talking about your feelings.” 🥊 Her blog is chalk full of modest + feminine style tips and tricks, insight on how to make your marriage strong and solid, and reflections on how to live your life with purpose and grace! Give her a follow and then click the link in my bio for some funny and wise insight on communication in marriage! Xo
