Instagram // February 2021

Happy March! I was thinking it could be fun to do a monthly Instagram recap series here on the blog? What do you lovelies think? At the beginning of the month I will upload my most popular/my favorite Instagram photos from the month before. I have seen this series done on other blogs & I love seeing and reading a recap of the previous month Instagram-style!

I think this will also be a great way to document my growth, as well as hold myself accountable and make sure I am posting to Instagram consistently. Currently my Instagram has 1750 followers, for April I would love to be able to grow that to just around 1800!   

Here’s February's Recap:

1. It had been awhile since I have gotten fully ready (thanks covid), so of course a good hair day + a complete outfit had to be documented selfie-style!

2. Colden re-reading his fave Dog Man book. We had a stretch of insanely cold weather which was perfect for snuggling up with a good book and TONS of blankets. 

3. Valentine's Day! We all had so much fun taking these love-themed box photos. Check out all the pics here.

4. The boys completed their first month as Littlest Prince Couture ambassadors! More on that in a later blog post ;)

5. Another Valentine's pic! This one was from another collab with Littlest Prince Couture.

6. My little Valentine's <3

7. One of my most fave pics of Haesten! So much joy + happiness in one photo!

8. This was a throwback to my birthday cake; it is a Tres Leches cake - a sponge cake soaked in 3 kinds of milk. I was scrolling through my phone and instantly wanted a piece as soon as this pic popped up on my phone!

That’s a little bit of our month! What have you been up too? I can hardly believe that we are already 3 months into 2021...and Easter is just a few short weeks away!

Valentine's Photos // 2021

 

Happy Monday everyone! I hope you had a wonderful long weekend + a lovely Valentine's Day!

In addition to a cold stretch (like -40 e.v.e.r.y. single day this week), we are still under stay-at-home orders with the majority of places and businesses closed, so it was a pretty quiet weekend at home. 

In the week leading up to Valentines I was able to take some really cute photos of the boys! In the collage above I utilized a huge cardboard box Pier brought home from work. Like when I say huge, I mean its massive. Haesten can easily stand up in it and I am pretty sure we would be able to fit all 4 of us in there for a family pic -- next time I will set up the tripod and try it out! I knew the collage would have 9 squares so I tentatively decided the loose set-up (for example: I knew I wanted a photo of Pier and I together, the boys together, as well as singletons of everyone.) in my head before I started taking pics. It was so much fun to do and both boys LOVED blowing glitter everywhere! It was super easy to piece the collage together, I used the layout app which is really user friendly and customizable. 

For these photos of the boys in their twining red flannel shirts, I pulled the photo booth/lemonade stand Pier built a few years ago inside, and we took photos with props and decorations we had at home. 

                

Roses are red, violets are blue, being in quarantine is better with you! 

HA just kidding its crazy over here but they sure are cute and I love them so stinkin' much!!!

Anyway, we hope you all had a Happy LOVE Day. Hold your loved ones extra close and tell them you love them. If there is anything to take away from this crazy year + lockdowns, it's how important our friends and family truly are. Celebrate love each and every day! I certainly do not take it for granted that I am blessed to have these three Valentines to love on!

Happy {7th} Wedding Anniversary

Another year married to this amazing man <3

Thank you for being my best friend, the biggest teddy-bear and creating this life with me that feels like our vey own fairytale. You are my rock, my sanity, my companion and the love of my life! 

and although we may not be able to celebrate how we want to (thanks covid), I know we will still make today special and memorable for our sweet, little family. There is no one else I would want to go through this life with!

I'll love you tomorrow and I'll forever. 

Happy Anniversary, Pier!!

9.27.13 // Reception

 When we were wedding planning, Pier and I wanted our wedding day to be a warm, cozy, and intimate celebration. Overall we wanted our friends + loved ones to feel at home and have the best time -- we really tried to keep our guests in mind when we planned every little detail. From the ceremony desserts to the pizza buffet, the interactive photo booth and the INCREDIBLE candy bar (plus HELLO....no boring speeches) we wanted this to be not only a memorable, but enjoyable day! One of my most favorite parts of the wedding is when our bridal party returned to the venue for the reception with huge grins! That feeling of overwhelming bliss truly captures the essence of our special day! We really did have the best time and both Pier and I love to look back and reminisce about our beautiful wedding <3

Instead of numbers, each table was named after a different style of dance. 

Our Emcee drew names out of a hat to decide the dinner order.
