And the craziest part?! We literally JUST brushed her yesterday. 😬 How does one fluffy little tuxedo cat have this much fur to give?!

Being a cat mom basically means accepting that cat hair is now an accessory, your lint roller is your best friend, and you’ll be doing laundry for the rest of your life. 🤣

Thankfully, Charlie is cute enough to get away with it… and clearly VERY unbothered by the fact that she completely ruined my outfit. 😹

Tuxedo cat parents… PLEASE tell me I’m not the only one constantly covered in cat hair?! 👇🏻

10 YEARS. 🤍😭 Today is our 10 year wedding anniver 10 YEARS. 🤍😭

Today is our 10 year wedding anniversary, and I truly cannot believe an entire decade has already gone by. Somehow, it feels like we were just saying “I do,” and at the same time, I can’t imagine a version of my life without you in it.

Logan, you are my rock, my safe space, my biggest supporter, my constant encourager, and most importantly, my best friend. 🤍

This past year has probably been one of the hardest years we’ve walked through together. Between everything going on with my health, the uncertainty surrounding my job and my future, and all the unknowns we’ve had to navigate, life has looked a lot different than I ever imagined it would.

But through every hard day, every appointment, every disappointment, every fear, and every unknown, you have been right there beside me. You’ve supported me, encouraged me, taken care of me, made me laugh when I needed it most, and reminded me over and over again that I never have to go through any of it alone.

And I don’t think I’ll ever be able to fully put into words how much that means to me.

I’m so incredibly blessed that God gave me you. 🥹🤍 I would choose you over and over again in every lifetime.

Happy 10 year anniversary, Logan!! I love you more than you’ll ever know. Here’s to the next 10 years, and every single year after that. 🥂🤍

A whole decade down, forever to go. ♾️

Because WHY do these things always happen when you’ve already hit your limit for the day?! Like that was quite literally my final straw 😂

And the best part? I had JUST cleaned the kitchen floors. Of course I did. 🙃 But at least this runner is vinyl so it’s easy to clean too thankfully! 

Nothing humbles you quite like standing in your freshly cleaned kitchen, staring at the lunch you were so excited to eat… on the floor. 😂

Just one of those real-life moments where you have to laugh so you don’t cry and keep rolling with life’s punches.

Please tell me I’m not the only one who has days where one tiny inconvenience feels like the absolute LAST STRAW?! 😩👇🏻

Remember that gorgeous amber glass pumpkin candle Remember that gorgeous amber glass pumpkin candle from @antiquecandleco_ I shared last month?! Well… I’m sad to report that I’ve already burned through the entire thing 🤣 It smelled THAT good!

But honestly, one of my favorite things about this fall candle is that the beautiful amber glass pumpkin jar can be repurposed once the candle is gone. After giving mine a good clean, I turned it into the cutest little Halloween candy jar! 🍬🎃

So basically, it’s a 2-for-1: you get an amazing smelling fall candle AND an adorable reusable pumpkin jar for your fall and Halloween decor. 🙌🏻

I love finding ways to reuse seasonal decor instead of putting it away or tossing it—and this amber pumpkin looks so cute filled with Halloween candy!

Turns out… yes. Yes, they do. 🤣

Now I totally get the hype! I love the blue LED light in the background, the slow rotating display, and how it keeps his watch collection organized instead of having watches scattered all over the place. It honestly looks SO cool sitting out too!

And if you’re looking for a unique gift for a husband, boyfriend, dad, or any watch lover in your life, I feel like this would be such a good gift idea. 👏🏻⌚️ Especially for the guy who already seems to have everything!

Apparently I’m enabling the watch obsession now instead of questioning it. 😂

Would the watch-obsessed man in your life love this too?! 👇🏻

Remember when I painted that Target cat statue to Remember when I painted that Target cat statue to look just like my Charlie?! 😹 Well apparently, I forgot to get Riley’s approval first.

Little Miss Riley discovered the finished DIY cat statue proudly displayed on the porch, and her reaction absolutely sent me. 💀 

At first, I’m pretty sure she thought we had brought home a FOURTH cat without consulting her. She kept staring at it from a safe distance like, “Ummm… excuse me?! Who is THAT?!” 👀🐈

Eventually, she worked up enough courage to jump up there and confront the mysterious imposter cat herself… only to realize it was FAKE. 🤣

And then, of course, she immediately had to play it cool like she totally knew that the entire time. 😹

Nothing humbles a cat faster than realizing she just tried to intimidate a painted statue. 😂

Cat moms, please tell me I’m not the only one whose cats get suspicious over literally ANY new piece of decor?!

I turned these plain white pumpkins into DIY golf I turned these plain white pumpkins into DIY golf ball pumpkins, and I think I just found the perfect fall decor for a golfer’s man cave!

I used my Cricut to cut out some of my hubby’s favorite golf brand logos, then applied them to the pumpkins with transfer tape. That’s literally it! Such an easy Cricut fall craft, but they turned out SO cute.

You could definitely hand-paint the logos if you don’t have a Cricut…but y’all know me and my shaky hands. 😂 Painting tiny golf logos was absolutely NOT happening, so my Cricut saved the day!

Now these golf-themed pumpkins are officially my favorite piece of fall decor in my hubby’s man cave garage. Because apparently this is how you sneak fall decor into a golf-obsessed husband’s space. 😉⛳️

Honestly, I think these would be such a fun DIY golf gift idea too! If you want my full step by step tutorial, comment “golf” below and I’ll send it your way! 

Would your husband approve of these golf ball pumpkins, or would he tell you to leave his man cave alone?! 😂👇🏻

That’s how adulting works, right?! 🤣

Consider this your reminder that the laundry, emails, errands, cleaning, and never-ending to-do list will still be there later. Sometimes you just need to romanticize your life and pretend you have absolutely nothing to do for a minute. 😂

The Best Colostrum Brand

For a couple of months now, I have been taking powdered colostrum. Which when I first heard about it, I had no idea really what it was. I was seeing it all over Instagram and my social media. So I decided to research it more and determine why I should started taking it. As well as what the best colostrum brand is.

And after researching, and trying it out myself, I am happy to report that I have came up with the answer! If you’re curious about colostrum and want to know more information, then be sure to check out my post below.

I will be explaining all the benefits to taking colostrum daily and why you should add it into your daily routine too. You may remember I mentioned colostrum back in my post about hair loss a few weeks ago too.

And not only does it benefit your hair, but much, much more too! So definitely keep on reading to find out more about my favorite colostrum products! 

ARMRA

Full disclosure, I am not a healthcare provider or registered dietitian, so please consult your medical providers before taking any kind of new supplement to make sure it is right for you! This post also contains affiliate links, which means I make a small commission off anything you purchase through here, at no additional cost to you. Please read my full privacy policy for more details.

What Is The Best Colostrum Brand?

If you already read my post I mentioned above, then you know I highly recommend ARMRA Colostrum. In my opinion, this brand has worked wonders for me and I have enjoyed taking it. So for this post, I will be talking purely about ARMRA’s colostrum and ways it can benefit you too! ARMRA is nature’s first bioactive whole food bovine colostrum that is uniquely optimized for human health too!  

What Exactly Is Colostrum?

Colostrum is actually a dairy food produced by all mammals within the first 48-72 hours after giving birth. It is the first form of milk that a baby can receive. 

You may have heard of it being referred to as “liquid gold”. Since it is the very first nutrition we receive in life and contains everything else we need to survive and thrive too.

Current research shows that colostrum provides the vital functions of protecting and strengthening the mucosal barriers of newborns. And it activates physiologic pathways at the cellular level as well.

ARMRA colostrum contains over 400 active bioactive nutrients which in turn provides protective antibodies, whole food prebiotics, free amino acids, strengthening peptides, immunoglobulins, trace minerals, tissue growth factors, adaptogens, tissue growth factors, mitochondrial regenerators, antioxidants, and other supportive compounds to name a few!

All of these active ingredients act like a blueprint for the body which in turn helps cellular regeneration and repair. As you can see, it is definitely not just regular cow’s milk. 

ARMRA Scoop

The ARMRA Revival 

We all know that stress, pollutants, toxins, chemicals, medications, nutrient deficiencies, and so much more can damage and affect our bodies.

And in fact more than 90,000 new chemicals have been introduced to the public ever since the 1970s. And do you know how much of them have been tested for safety?! Only 1%!!

So no wonder that modern living damages the mucosal barrier. But thankfully, ARMRA Colostrum™ can help build it back! Continue reading to see how this pure bovine colostrum can help in so many different ways!

The Barrier 

The gut barrier is actually composed of 4 layers:

1. Gut Cell Barrier 

2. Mucous Layer

3. Microbiome

4. Immune Cells and Antibodies 

To have a healthy mucosal barrier means to have it in balance. Allowing the body to absorb all the essential nutrients, but also keeping out all the unhealthy substances we can take in just from breathing, eating, and drinking.

All the items mentioned above can cause this barrier to become more penetrable, which in turn makes it easier for the harmful particles to get inside our bodies. Which includes bacteria, mold, viruses, allergens, and environmental toxins.

All these exposures can make us ill, but also cause the immune system to activate and inappropriately trigger inflammation. In turn, this leads to so many modern health issues.

Such as allergies, weight gain, autoimmune disorders, digestive issues, bloating, mental fog, sleep disturbances, anxiety, depression, and so much more!

But again, ARMRA is formulated to help your body build back a better barrier and support a healthy microbiome.

The Best Colostrum
I love adding the unflavored colostrum into my morning iced coffee!

Benefits Of ARMA Colostrum

By taking ARMRA daily, you can experience so many beneficial effects to your body. Antibodies can strengthen your immune system and optimize cellular health for whole body benefits. I will list some of the key potential benefits and side effects below for you as well.

Fortify Gut Health

If you struggle with boosting like I do, then this product is a lifesaver for you. I always tend to have bloating and digestive tract issues due to my endometriosis.

Sometimes, it doesn’t even matter what I eat, I could have the healthiest diet ever and still feel bloated in the evenings.

So by taking this daily, it has greatly improved this issue for me. ARMA fortifies your entire gut wall, optimizes your microbiome, and strengthens the gut wall. Which in turn blocks out all the irritants that can cause uncomfortable bloating and constipation. 

Strengthen Immunity

I tend to always get sick around the holidays. I joke and say that it’s time for my “Christmas cold”. And working in people’s mouths all day (in case you didn’t know- I’m a registered dental hygienist!) doesn’t seem to help my immune system.

Especially if they come in sick with a cold too. So I was desperate to try something that actually worked and helped strengthen my immune system. I’ve taken all the “immune gummies” and supplements before, but nothing seemed to work for me.

Until I started this. I have been around sick people and have thankfully, not caught anything here recently. And especially heading into the dreaded cold and flu season, I wanted my immune system to be strong and impenetrable!

Since ARMRA strengthens your immune barriers, it blocks out all the unwanted toxins that can come in and weaken the immune system. Keeping you strong and healthy!  

Ignite Metabolism 

All the toxins that enter into your body through a weakened gut barrier can cause a slower metabolism and inflammation.

Taking colostrum can help you absorb more nutrients, support balanced blood sugar levels, and modulates horomones. Such as leptin, which is a fat burning trigger that can boost your peak metabolic performance. 

Improve Mood, Energy, and Focus

​If you want to feel clear and focused throughout the day, you should definitely start taking this! Gut health and brain health are directly related so by taking colostrum, you are supporting the production of hormones like serotonin and GABA.

Which in turn promotes the health of your brain cells. This ultimately translates into improved mood, mental clarity, and clean energy. Which you can experience without a caffeine crash!

The Best Colostrum Brand
You can make several yummy mocktails with the different flavors of colostrum too!

Restore Sleep

ARMRA helps to balance out your cardiac rhythm. Since ARMRA helps revive microbiome health, it in turn fuels synthesis of hormones and neurotransmitters that are essential for regulating the sleep cycle.

For example, like melatonin, which when produced at the gut wall is 400x higher than in the brain. 

Support Sinus Health

By taking ARMRA, you can focus on feeling your best all year round! This supplement can seal and strengthen the immune barriers for your nasal passages, sinuses, and lungs!

These barriers can in turn block out all the allergens entering your body and triggering symptoms. This is definitely a must during peak allergy season! Get your immune health back in shape by taking ARMRA daily! 

Enhance Skin Radiance 

Of course you know that glowing skin begins from within. And by taking ARMRA you can get strong anti-inflammatory benefits with prebiotics, antioxidants, vitamins, growth factors, and regenerative peptides that actually help to reverse age-related changes.

Also, helps active collagen production, enhance skin radiance, and strengthen the skin barrier. Which ultimately protects against toxins and UV light damage. 

Activate Hair Growth 

You may remember this from my telogen effluvium hair loss post, but this was one of the main reasons I actually started taking colostrum supplementation.

When you experience hair loss, you are willing to try out anything and everything to reverse it. And luckily for me, not only has my hair improved drastically, but I am experiencing all these other amazing benefits as well.

Studies have shown that ARMRA helps reactive hair follicle stem cells and supports the hair microbiome. Which combats hair loss by reversing the inflammation and blocking chemical damage to the hair follicle. 

Fuel Performance and Recovery 

If you’re into working out and training, taking a colostrum powder is something you should also consider. Preliminary research has shown that taking colostrum can give you up to a 20% improvement in fitness strength, stamina, and endurance.

It’s also been shown that it can decrease your recovery time after exercise to up to 50% as well. By taking colostrum daily, it can enhance nutrient absorption, stop inflammation, and fuel cellular regeneration with peptides, growth factors, and functional nutrients for your best athletic performance yet!

By taking this supplement, you can harness all the strength, recovery support, and mobility that even the most professional athletes have. 

How To Take ARMRA Colostrum

This high-quality supplement is in powder form, which makes it easy to add into many different drinks, smoothies, yogurt, etc. ARMRA Immune Revival is available in several different flavors as well.

I would say the most common one would be their unflavored jar. Even though it states it is unflavored, I think if you add it to just plain water, it kind of makes for a milky fluid. Which isn’t bad, but I do think there is a slight flavor there.

ARMRA Mocktail

I like using this one in my iced coffees, or my pre-workout that I drink. If you add it into something that is already flavored, then you really don’t notice it. And you always want to add it into some kind of cold beverage.

Adding colostrum into something with high heat can damage all the bioactive compounds and whole foods in the product and not be as effective. They also have different flavors such as blood orange, watermelon, and peach (seasonal).

I have tried the blood orange too and really like that one as well. It tastes delicious in regular water, or you can even add it into recipes to make a mocktail with it too! 

ARMRA Mocktail Recipe

Enjoy The Variety Of Health Benefits From Taking Colostrum

​Well, as you can see from all the recent research above, as far as dietary supplements go, ARMRA Colostrum is definitely one of the best!

Who doesn’t want their immune response and immune function to be top notch as we are about to enter cold and flu season?! I know I sure do.

And after reviewing the best colostrum supplements, I think ARMRA is definitely a solid choice. It’s a reputable brand with a very high-quality product so you can easily add this into your daily wellness routine.

And good news for you- you can use my code “Charity” to get 15% off your first order with ARMRA Colostrum! I promise you will love all the gut health benefits and everything else you receive just from taking it daily.

Have you ever tried taking a colostrum supplement like this? Or do you yourself take ARMRA too?! I’d love to hear how you take it below too. Let me know if you have any good mocktail recipes for it! I love trying new ones out!

Seriously, WHY do the Reese’s Peanut Butter Pumpkins taste so much better than regular Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups?! There’s just something about that perfect chocolate-to-peanut-butter ratio that gets me every single Halloween. 😂

They are hands down my favorite Halloween candy, and honestly, I could probably eat my weight in them.

So if you offer me one Reese’s Pumpkin this spooky season, just save us both some time and hand me two. 😉🤣

Now I need to know: what’s the BEST Halloween candy of all time?! 👇🏼
I am absolutely LOVING these fall trees from Nearl I am absolutely LOVING these fall trees from Nearly Natural on @amazon 🙌🏻 Usually, I keep my olive trees in these baskets on each side of our bed until Christmas, when I swap them out for Christmas trees. But now I officially have trees for FALL too… and I’m obsessed. 😂🍁

They add the prettiest deep, rich fall colors to our bedroom and instantly make the whole space feel warmer and cozier. There’s just something about bringing those autumn tones into your bedroom that makes it feel like the ultimate cozy retreat!

I’m definitely adding these to my list of favorite fall bedroom decor finds. 🍂

Are you someone who decorates your bedroom for fall too, or do you keep the seasonal decor to the main areas of your home?!

Little Miss Riley is VERY particular when it comes Little Miss Riley is VERY particular when it comes to cat toys. I can buy her the cutest toy ever and she’ll look at me like, “And what exactly am I supposed to do with this?” 🤣

But cat scratching pads?! Those are her absolute FAVORITE. She’s just about worn her old one out, so when I spotted this adorable Halloween cat scratching pad at Target, obviously I had to bring it home for her. 🎃

After a few very thorough sniffs, an inspection, and some test scratches… we officially have Riley’s approval! 👏🏻😹

Honestly, I’m just glad I managed to buy something that passed her incredibly strict quality-control standards. 😂

Anyone else have a super picky cat?! What’s the ONE toy or cat product they actually love?
If you love ooey gooey desserts, you NEED to make If you love ooey gooey desserts, you NEED to make this Ooey Gooey Pumpkin Butter Cake this fall! 🎃🤤

Confession: I’m one of those people who would rather lick the batter or sneak some cookie dough than wait for the finished dessert. 🤣 And don’t come for me about the raw batter…I’ve been doing it my whole life and I’m still here 😜

Which is exactly why this pumpkin butter cake is one of my FAVORITE fall desserts. It’s fully baked, but the middle stays unbelievably soft, rich, and ooey gooey. 🙌🏻

You get a buttery yellow cake base topped with a creamy pumpkin layer that basically melts in your mouth. And add a big dollop of whipped cream on top?! CHEF’S KISS. 🤌🏻🎃

It’s easy to make, packed with cozy fall flavor, and would be the perfect pumpkin dessert for Halloween, Thanksgiving, or any fall gathering!

POV: you let your tuxedo cat snuggle on you while POV: you let your tuxedo cat snuggle on you while wearing a dark colored sweat set… rookie mistake. 😹

Consider this my official reminder to NEVER wear burgundy while cuddling Charlie again. 😂 One snuggle session later and my entire outfit is covered in black and white cat hair.

And the craziest part?! We literally JUST brushed her yesterday. 😬 How does one fluffy little tuxedo cat have this much fur to give?!

Being a cat mom basically means accepting that cat hair is now an accessory, your lint roller is your best friend, and you’ll be doing laundry for the rest of your life. 🤣

Thankfully, Charlie is cute enough to get away with it… and clearly VERY unbothered by the fact that she completely ruined my outfit. 😹

Tuxedo cat parents… PLEASE tell me I’m not the only one constantly covered in cat hair?! 👇🏻

10 YEARS. 🤍😭 Today is our 10 year wedding anniver 10 YEARS. 🤍😭

Today is our 10 year wedding anniversary, and I truly cannot believe an entire decade has already gone by. Somehow, it feels like we were just saying “I do,” and at the same time, I can’t imagine a version of my life without you in it.

Logan, you are my rock, my safe space, my biggest supporter, my constant encourager, and most importantly, my best friend. 🤍

This past year has probably been one of the hardest years we’ve walked through together. Between everything going on with my health, the uncertainty surrounding my job and my future, and all the unknowns we’ve had to navigate, life has looked a lot different than I ever imagined it would.

But through every hard day, every appointment, every disappointment, every fear, and every unknown, you have been right there beside me. You’ve supported me, encouraged me, taken care of me, made me laugh when I needed it most, and reminded me over and over again that I never have to go through any of it alone.

And I don’t think I’ll ever be able to fully put into words how much that means to me.

I’m so incredibly blessed that God gave me you. 🥹🤍 I would choose you over and over again in every lifetime.

Happy 10 year anniversary, Logan!! I love you more than you’ll ever know. Here’s to the next 10 years, and every single year after that. 🥂🤍

A whole decade down, forever to go. ♾️
POV: you’re overstimulated, exhausted, SUPER hangr POV: you’re overstimulated, exhausted, SUPER hangry… and then you drop your entire hot lunch on the kitchen floor 😩🤣

Because WHY do these things always happen when you’ve already hit your limit for the day?! Like that was quite literally my final straw 😂

And the best part? I had JUST cleaned the kitchen floors. Of course I did. 🙃 But at least this runner is vinyl so it’s easy to clean too thankfully! 

Nothing humbles you quite like standing in your freshly cleaned kitchen, staring at the lunch you were so excited to eat… on the floor. 😂

Just one of those real-life moments where you have to laugh so you don’t cry and keep rolling with life’s punches.

Please tell me I’m not the only one who has days where one tiny inconvenience feels like the absolute LAST STRAW?! 😩👇🏻

Remember that gorgeous amber glass pumpkin candle Remember that gorgeous amber glass pumpkin candle from @antiquecandleco_ I shared last month?! Well… I’m sad to report that I’ve already burned through the entire thing 🤣 It smelled THAT good!

But honestly, one of my favorite things about this fall candle is that the beautiful amber glass pumpkin jar can be repurposed once the candle is gone. After giving mine a good clean, I turned it into the cutest little Halloween candy jar! 🍬🎃

So basically, it’s a 2-for-1: you get an amazing smelling fall candle AND an adorable reusable pumpkin jar for your fall and Halloween decor. 🙌🏻

I love finding ways to reuse seasonal decor instead of putting it away or tossing it—and this amber pumpkin looks so cute filled with Halloween candy!

Want one for your home too? Comment “CANDLE” below and I’ll send you the link! 👇🏻

POV: your bedroom officially entered its cozy fall POV: your bedroom officially entered its cozy fall era 🍂🤎

Sharing some cozy fall bedroom stills today because this room might be one of my favorite spaces I’ve decorated for fall this year! There’s just something about rich autumn colors, warm candlelight, and seasonal touches that makes a bedroom feel SO much cozier.

And can we talk about these new fall eucalyptus trees from @nearlynaturalfloral?! 😍 I feel like they completely pulled the whole fall bedroom look together. The deep, moody colors are perfect for creating that warm and cozy autumn vibe I love.

I swear I sleep better when my bedroom is decorated for the season too. 😂 Anyone else?!

And of course, it wouldn’t be fall in our house without an @antiquecandleco_ candle burning. 🕯️🍁 Their fall scents make the entire house smell like autumn perfection!

If you’ve never tried Antique Candle Co. before, you can use my code Macedonia20 for 20% off! 🤎

When my hubby first got this rotating watch displa When my hubby first got this rotating watch display case, I’m not gonna lie… I thought he was being a little ridiculous and extra 😂 Like, do the watches really need their own light-up display?!

Turns out… yes. Yes, they do. 🤣

Now I totally get the hype! I love the blue LED light in the background, the slow rotating display, and how it keeps his watch collection organized instead of having watches scattered all over the place. It honestly looks SO cool sitting out too!

And if you’re looking for a unique gift for a husband, boyfriend, dad, or any watch lover in your life, I feel like this would be such a good gift idea. 👏🏻⌚️ Especially for the guy who already seems to have everything!

Apparently I’m enabling the watch obsession now instead of questioning it. 😂

Would the watch-obsessed man in your life love this too?! 👇🏻

Remember when I painted that Target cat statue to Remember when I painted that Target cat statue to look just like my Charlie?! 😹 Well apparently, I forgot to get Riley’s approval first.

Little Miss Riley discovered the finished DIY cat statue proudly displayed on the porch, and her reaction absolutely sent me. 💀 

At first, I’m pretty sure she thought we had brought home a FOURTH cat without consulting her. She kept staring at it from a safe distance like, “Ummm… excuse me?! Who is THAT?!” 👀🐈

Eventually, she worked up enough courage to jump up there and confront the mysterious imposter cat herself… only to realize it was FAKE. 🤣

And then, of course, she immediately had to play it cool like she totally knew that the entire time. 😹

Nothing humbles a cat faster than realizing she just tried to intimidate a painted statue. 😂

Cat moms, please tell me I’m not the only one whose cats get suspicious over literally ANY new piece of decor?!

I turned these plain white pumpkins into DIY golf I turned these plain white pumpkins into DIY golf ball pumpkins, and I think I just found the perfect fall decor for a golfer’s man cave!

I used my Cricut to cut out some of my hubby’s favorite golf brand logos, then applied them to the pumpkins with transfer tape. That’s literally it! Such an easy Cricut fall craft, but they turned out SO cute.

You could definitely hand-paint the logos if you don’t have a Cricut…but y’all know me and my shaky hands. 😂 Painting tiny golf logos was absolutely NOT happening, so my Cricut saved the day!

Now these golf-themed pumpkins are officially my favorite piece of fall decor in my hubby’s man cave garage. Because apparently this is how you sneak fall decor into a golf-obsessed husband’s space. 😉⛳️

Honestly, I think these would be such a fun DIY golf gift idea too! If you want my full step by step tutorial, comment “golf” below and I’ll send it your way! 

Would your husband approve of these golf ball pumpkins, or would he tell you to leave his man cave alone?! 😂👇🏻

Me walking into the weekend like my to-do list isn Me walking into the weekend like my to-do list isn’t a mile long and I don’t have approximately 47 things I should be doing. 😂

Because apparently if I put on a cute outfit, walk dramatically through some twinkle lights, and simply ✨ignore my responsibilities✨… they no longer exist.

That’s how adulting works, right?! 🤣

Consider this your reminder that the laundry, emails, errands, cleaning, and never-ending to-do list will still be there later. Sometimes you just need to romanticize your life and pretend you have absolutely nothing to do for a minute. 😂

Please tell me I’m not the only one entering the weekend with a to-do list I have ZERO intentions of completing. 👇🏻
