My Favorite Things {Real Life House / Outfit Moments}

Some of you email asking if our house is always perfect looking and that makes me laugh because it’s only perfect when I shoot pictures for a blog post. I am going to attempt to do a better job of sharing real life with you all. My favorite things for the week will consist of real life moments so I plan on sharing those favorites (life + outfits + messy house moments ect.) from now on with all of you.
So if it’s a favorite outfit, you may see me standing in front of a mirror taking a picture :).
If you follow us on instagram, you know I started sharing fun outfits of the kids and me. I have a date with my mom next weekend to take pictures of her in her favorite outfits so stay tuned for that.
Apple Picking a few Saturday’s ago.
Boots / Knee Socks / Jeans / Sweater (similar mine sold old)
My cute gramp at 7am heading out to work. He loves that plaid coat. Even though he drives me crazy sometimes, I am so lucky to be able to see him every morning walk through the kitchen. You know what I mean?
I was pulling out Christmas bins trying to organize the closet and found my favorite Christmas pillows.
Merry Christmas Pillow / Jingle Pillow / Woody Car Pillow
Jeans under $30 from Target and purple ballet shoes. Sometimes I like to get out of my yoga pants and look like a girl.-ha.
My dad and son making apple pie. It’s times like these that make multigenerational living worth the craziness.
I went to a blogger event in Boston a couple weeks ago and snapped this cute picture because I love this dress. It’s from Banana Republic Outlet and was under $50. Look closely, who do you see under the coffee table?
Forts. This is for all of you who think our house is always perfect and clean.-haha. Yes, the kids are allowed to play in the family room.
So that’s what has been going on in our world the last week or so. My Favorite Things will be back next week ;). This post contains affiliate links in case you like something and want to buy it. That means if you do buy something, we may make a few pennies.
Meet Jessica
What started as a hobby, Jessica’s blog now has millions of people visit yearly and while many of the projects and posts look and sound perfect, life hasn’t always been easy. Read Jessica’s story and how overcoming death, divorce and dementia was one of her biggest life lessons to date.
Always enjoy your posts Jessica. Glad to see you live just like the rest of us! Keep posting “real life” in addition to your “cleaned up posts”.
