Good morning!  Mother’s Day is just a few weeks away (May 14th!) and I wanted to share a couple of ways to treat the special women in our lives!  Over the weekend, our family lost our sweet Grandmother.  She epitomized what it meant to be a wife, mother, sister, grandmother, great-grandmother, aunt, friend, neighbor, teacher.  It will be so special to see all of the people she touched gather together on Tuesday to celebrate her in all of these roles.  Her love and spirit will radiate through all of us forever.

 Mothers do so much that goes unnoticed.  And I’m not just talking about the physical things they do for their children that keep them fed, clean, etc…we all know that’s a big part of it, but the real job is in those special things that mothers do.  The constant worrying, the kisses when only a mother’s kiss will do, the countless sacrifices, the pep talks.  The list goes on.

When I have good news or bad news, the first person I always want to call is my mom; she always seems to know just what to say.  Since becoming a mom, I realize just how much a mother does–it’s a 24/7/365 job that lasts forever.  And it truly is the best.  So: Mother’s Day: a day to celebrate all of the wonderful men and women in our lives who have taken on this role and given so much of themselves to us!  Listed below are some items that can be wrapped up individually for the big day or added together with a bottle of wine, box of tea/coffee, a gift card to get a mani/pedi, or a photo book like one from Chatbooks!

Monogram Pendant Necklace
Coco Rose Coconut Oil Body Polish
Essie Gel Couture Nail Polish- Satin Slippers
Yummy Mummy Shower Cream
Sugar Lip Treatment- Poppy
Kate Spade Ear Buds and Portable Charger Set
Scallop Faux Leather Tote
Sugarfina XOXO Candy Bento Box
Jardinier Pot Holder
Lemon Recipe Book
‘All in Good Taste’ Tea Kettle

Thank you to all the mamas out there!! We can’t wait to spoil you!
Have a great start to the week, friends!

Good morning! Today, I thought I would share a little gift idea for the mum in your life. This, in my opinion, is the best kind of gift. An assortment of goodies!! Here’s a few things to get you thinking!

1. DIY Wrapped Succulent. Or you could wrap any small little flower pot!

2. Kiehl’s Creme de Corps.

3. Essie Sheer nail polish.

4. Verbena & Sage liquid soap.

5. Vitamin B facial cleanser.

6. Scalloped Pink Desk Organizer. Such a cute little something to organize the goodies into! You could also use a basket or fun tote bag!!

You could also throw chocolates in there, a bottle of wine, stripe straws, notepad, or any other fun little touches you know your momma would love!!

Oh and don’t forget to clip on a darling mother’s day card to tell your mom how much she means to you!

Happy Wednesday!
Erin

Hello, dear readers!

I am so stinkin’ excited to share with you pictures of my bridal shower from this past weekend! I had the loveliest time. I can’t even begin to describe how happy I was throughout the entire weekend… it was an absolute ball!

One thing (out of many things) my sister is so fabulous at is throwing parties. She pays attention to the finest of details and makes it so special for everyone. Mom and Erin planned the whole thing as a surprise and I can’t thank them enough for all of the planning and hard work they put into the shower. And to my beautiful, fabulous friends that helped along the way… love you all!!

Okay, now for the pictures…
