Cozy minimalist: a mindset shift + decorating lifestyle that will save you time, money, and your sanity 👏 . When I first heard @thenester talk about this concept #cozyminimalist, I wasn't sure if I could adopt it (hello, vintage thifter and lover of all the target things here 🙋‍♀️) But when I had to go through all of our things and then move halfway across the country, I was intrigued. So I bought her winter course, and I've purchased every season since 😂 #imabeliever . Take a peek into our #cozyminimalisthome for this winter season over on the blog! Psst there's also a code where you can save $5 on her winter course! This was the course I bought and got hooked 🎣 You may just become a believer too! #itssimplytuesday #targetstyle #lmbpresets

#mcm this hottie 😍😍 because he started his new job today (apparently that's what we do around this time of the year 😆), and I'm super excited for him! It's at Nike, which has basically been his dream since forever. . It's been a very long road, for both of us, but I'm really proud of him for getting through some extremely tough days. I think he would say it was all worth it 😊 but it's so hard to see that when you're in the midst of the unknown. It's so hard to trust + have faith in the dark when all we want is a light to guide us. 🔦⛼ Sometimes that darkness is our greatest teacher. It's what tests our faith and pushes us outside our comfort zones to grow in it. To grow our faith in Him. . So yes, although I'm very proud of @chrismadrigal8 for getting his dream job, I'm mostly proud of him because he never quit or lost faith in the dark🕯❤

Happy Monday!! It's a new week, friends! A fresh start 🌿🌱 Traditionally, I've always dreaded Mondays. Back to work, back to early mornings and early bedtimes. Aka no fun, right? 😕😟 Well, there was something about this Monday that was different, that was exciting! This week, I have a new blog post scheduled, a sponsored post coming up that was super fun putting together, I've created a new fb community for #creatives that I'm actually excited about, I'm seeing and feeling results from the new fitness+nutrition program I'm doing, and to top it all off, Chris started his new job this week so he's back at work too! . I have ALL of that👆 to be excited for and to look forward to on this Monday! 🎉🎉 Will all Mondays be this exciting? Nope. But I can definitely start looking at Mondays through a different lens and #rebrandmondays ✨👊 . What do you look forward to most on Mondays? . Mine is usually new podcast episodes (like from some of my faves @thelazygenius, @goaldiggerpodcast, and @communicator.academy) for my morning commute! 🎧 . Let's #rebrandmondays together and kick those #sundayscaries to the curb! 🙌

Happy weekend, friends!! We started off our 3-day weekend with a trip to the @nike employee store 🎉 I had a pass through my employer and Chris needed to exchange the shoes I got him for Christmas so it worked out perfectly! We also ran to the mall, which we never do, and I snagged some good basics and some other fun stuff - check them all out in my stories! 😄👆 Football, cleaning+decluttering, and working on blog stuff are on the rest of the agenda for the weekend ✅ hope y'all are enjoying your weekend! 🥂😎 (PS: how is January already almost half over?? 😫😲) #targetstyle #nike #nikewomen #targetdoesitagain #oldnavy #oldnavystyle #athleisure

Finally coming to and can't believe we're already one week into 2019! Like what?? Haha! . Looking back at 2018 and it was kinda a whirlwind. It seriously flew by, but felt so long at the same time. I love looking back at these #topnine pics and reflecting back on each of them. . 2018 was a year of change and growth. From getting a new job, moving (again), and coming more into the "new me," it's been one heck of a year. Like I'm actually becoming a new me, slowly but surely. Or as I learned from @allyfallon in her #indestructiblebook, maybe this is the me I've been all along. She's just finally making her way. . Each year, month, day that passes since losing Kenny, I've either removed things from my life or added in new. It's been a strange, scary, but a little exciting journey all at the same time. Grief is a wonderful, but tough teacher. And I'm always learning and growing from her. . I've been thinking and praying over some intentions for this new year. In health, finances, relationships, writing, blogging. I'm still working on those, but taking some steps in the right direction! Excited to share more with y'all and potentially start some new ventures as well 🤓 Excited for this new year and seeing what it holds for the truer me 💕✨ #newyeartruerme
