Grinch-y Green Dress

You nauseate me… Mr. Grinch. Fun fact: I have already watched ‘How the Grinch Stole Christmas’ (the Jim Carrey version) SEVEN times already….and it’s not even December yet. My friends will call me obsessed but honestly how can you not love such a hilarious classic? I could probably recite the entire movie…so you get the point…big Grinch guy. So my love of the Grinch is the inspiration behind this blog post. I got this dress a few weeks ago from Old Navy and its so soft and flowy. I’ve already worn it to work and church a few times. I really love this green color during the wintery months because this color definitely reminds me of Christmas, especially with a red plaid scarf. I’m also wearing my new DSW booties that make me super, unnecessarily tall. What can I say? I like to intimidate people…just like the Grinch…

Happy hump day! To help you get through the week, I thought I would share this gift guide for “the fit girl” in your life. I have to admit that a lot of this may be things that a girl who works out a lot already has, but I also think these are good gifts for the girl trying to be super fit in the new year. Hey, we all start somewhere!

My Experience With OrangeTheory Fitness

So for the past 8 weeks I have been working out at Orange Theory. I originally started because I wanted a work out class to give me a little push before my trip to Jamaica. I ended up signing up for one month, and then another month and now I’m hooked. My friend Emily originally told me about it and I am so glad she did. I seriously love these classes. I used to not push myself at the gym and get bored of my normal work outs, but Orange Theory keeps things fun, different and you always walk away feeling accomplished. I’ll try my best to explain the class and why I like it so much.

Tan and Red Striped Sweater

Gobble Gobble y’all! It’s Turkey Day! Today my aunts, uncles and cousins are coming over to my house. Both of my brothers also made it home so its a full house! I’m trying out this new butternut squash recipe I hope everyone likes (but I haven’t been able to make it yet since the turkey is still in the oven). My family is loud and messy (in the best way) and I’m so excited to eat all of the food my mom and dad made this morning. Anyone else have sauerkraut on Thanksgiving? Right now my house smells like cabbage and I love it! Anyway, hope you enjoy your Thanksgiving, however you spend it, and here are some pictures of my new sweater that I’m wearing today. I got it from a local boutique downtown but I was able to find the link online! It’s super big and soft which means I can still wear it with a food baby and for my after dinner nap. Sounds like a perfect Thanksgiving to me!

Best Christmas Pajamas

As I have gotten older, I developed a fear of Christmas not feeling like Christmas anymore. It could be because of school and work and money problems and not believing in Santa anymore, but as of late I think one of the easiest ways to keep in the Christmas spirit is festive Christmas pajamas. Ask my brothers…I make them wear these ridiculous Christmas onesies on Christmas Eve every year. I’m not sure I can pull that off this year so here are some of my favorite pajamas I’ve found at my favorite stores (most of them are on sale this week!)

Icy Blue Sweater

Chicago, its certainly bean a while! (ha I love bean puns). A week ago I was in a very snowy Chicago. Now its snowing here in Maryland, so I guess I can’t escape it until March. Lucky for me I love snow and all things associated with snow. This new sweater I got from Vici reminds me of ice and snow (like if Elsa were to wear a sweater in 2018, this would be it). Vici is one of my new favorite online stores and I can’t wait to buy more sweaters on Cyber Monday (if I can hold out that long). It was absolutely freezing in Chicago when I look these pictures but I hope you can’t really tell how cold I was. Word of advice, don’t take off your coat in Chicago, no matter how cute your sweater is.

12 of the Best Advent Calendars 2018

Growing up, my family always had a paper advent calendar that hung on our fridge I used to fight with my brothers about who got to open which day. Now that I’m living at home again, I definitely want to get a brand new advent calendar, but recently I learned that there is such a huge variety of advent calendars to pick from! I used to get so excited just over opening a little paper flap and reading a Bible verse of a story I know like the back of my hand. Just imagine how happy I’ll be in December when I get a little present (from myself) every single day. If this doesn’t sound fun, theres something wrong with you. I think advent calendars are a great way to count down to Christmas so here are 12 different advent calendars that I found super interesting!

CrockPot Taco Soup Recipe

I had the rude awakening the other day that it is extremely cold outside, and apparently the cold is here to stay. So of course I texted my dad about this (because whenever I’m upset about anything, I text my dad) and he suggested that this week would be a great time to make some taco soup. Now I realize that not everyone knows what taco soup is and truth be told, the best way I can describe it is a thinner version of chili. Now I want to emphasize that these pictures do not do this soup justice. Taco soup is one of my all time favorite dishes and it is so easy and cheap to make! Trust me when I say that as the days get chillier, you’re going to want to come home to this soup.
