I had to share a few things that are currently making me very happy.
1. Daddy’s home!
First and foremost – Dave came home after two full weeks in Africa (Congo, South Africa & Zimbabwe). I’ll share more about his incredible trip in another post. For now, we are all soaking in the joy that comes with having daddy back HOME.

| He surprised the boys at school. TEARS. Y’all. These boys were over the moon. |
2. Stitch Fix.
You guys. I had heard about Stitch Fix for months and months but never took the plunge. And, then, I did and I will forever sing it’s praises.

| A few of my favorite knits for fall… |
Oh my word. I never have time to shop for myself…by myself. So, this amazing style service does it for me. LOVE.
A few tips:
1. Create a Pinterest board of style ideas that you love and share with your Fix Stylist,
2. Make your age younger (if you’re over 30) to get cuter styles (thanks Kelly for this tip!),
3. Share very detailed feedback with your stylist after you receive your items.
3. Schmidts Natural Deodorant. *
I’ve been looking for a natural deodorant that ACTUALLY works for years with no luck. Until now. This little jar is free of aluminum, propylene glycol, parabens and phthalates and keeps you dry. It is slightly more work to apply – you have to scoop it out with this cute little spatula and then apply by hand – but the little hassle is worth it for the results.
4. My most favorite app of ALL TIME: ArtKive. *
You take a photo of your little’s artwork, file it by child by age and then print a cute book when you’re ready. Ta-da!
Now, I no longer feel guilty when I throw away the 50 trillion pieces of artwork that come home from school or are created on any given day by my little artists. I recently printed a book from the boys’ preschool years and now plan to do one each school year. Seriously, this is genius. And the quality of the book is amazing. I can’t stop raving about it.
We launched a new season this past Sunday. If you are local to NW Arkansas, please join us each month. I wrote more about The Sessions HERE. The best part of all … proceeds go directly to our feeding program with Feed Their Tummies.
Oh, did I mention that we launched The Sessions exactly one year ago today? AND, our very first artist was the incredibly talented Barrett Baber. Did you see his auditon on The Voice?!? FOUR CHAIRS! We are so proud of him. Be sure to watch and support him this season!
6. Feed Their Tummies sweatshirts. **
These are THE most comfortable sweatshirts of all time. I am currently pretending that the weather actually coincides with the date on the calendar by turning the AC way down and snuggling up in this cozy shirt while I type and drink my hot cinnamon tea.
I hope this was helpful! Have an awesome weekend, friends.
*Disclaimer: I’m getting no compensation for this post – these guys don’t even know I exist. I just love this stuff and had to share with you all. 🙂
** All proceeds from the sweatshirt go toward feeding the children in our feeding program in DR Congo.
