With a new school year beginning, I feel that it’s truly my “New Year.” Not January 1st, but the day after Labor Day. On Labor Day we celebrate the end of summer, and gear up for another year of school, activities, and new routines. We reassess our previous year, recommit to the new year, make small changes, and resolve to do better, be more organized, or take on more/less. As I see my children growing and learning each year, I am thankful to be a large part in this portion of their life. And I admit, it is tempting to wonder what my life would be like if I wasn’t a homeschooling mom…I mean, I did have a taste when my oldest was attending private school. But, I had two other kiddos with me at home. Still, I fully believe and know this is what I need to do; it is the place the Lord has led and confirmed. I trust His will and obey, for He is good and His promises endure forever. I have been blessed with a now 5th Grader, 3rd Grader, and Kindergartener.
My 5th Grader is growing into a young lady. She loves volleyball, playing the piano, reading, and learning about bugs/insects. She is a wonderful big sister and a great help to me. I look forward to being her Classical Conversations Master Class Tutor, and serving in her Sunday School class at church. I pray that we get to spend some quality time together as she transitions into the middle school years.
My 3rd Grader is hard working and full of energy. She loves gymnastics, playing the violin, roller blading, and art. She is as creative as she is active. Her joyful relaxed spirit draws both her brother and sister close, making her an amazing big and little sister. I look forward to seeing her grow in confidence this year without me as her Classical Conversations Journeymen Tutor (she had me for 2 years). I pray that she knows where her strength comes from and continues to be brave in all her endeavors.
My Kindergartener is eager and full of excitement. He loves Legos, music/dancing, riding his scooter, art, and playing Go Fish. He is looking forward to learning to read and playing soccer this year. He is a sweet little brother, and enjoys spending time with his sisters. I am continuously amazed at how fast he is growing, and pray that he takes on new challenges with enthusiasm and a teachable spirit.
To an amazing school year!

Today is the day! I’m super excited to announce the launch of Jamberry’s NEW Fall/Winter Catalog! Take a peak through this video:
What I absolutely love about Jamberry Nails is they are continuously thinking of what they can offer the customer. Jamberry has brought out so many new products and innovative nail wraps with this new catalog! Here are some of my favorites:
A new compact and sleek look for the Jamberry Mini Heater
And last but not least, the Autism Awareness wraps for Juniors!! This wonderful addition to the Junior line is a great way to support this charity. For every sheet sold, Jamberry will donate $2.oo to the Autism Society of America.
Of course these aren’t all the new changes and updates to be found in the new catalog, but just a small highlight of my favorites. There are many beautiful, new, and festive designs just in time for Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas! Check it out!

I’ve been having a blast these past couple weeks joining in the Tuesday + Thursday #coasttocoastchallenge put on by Coast To Coast Central. Yesterday, the challenge was the crossbody bag. What I love about this type of bag is it allows me to have my hands free. Moms like me appreciate being able to carry our purse around the park, shopping, walking the dog…and still have a free hand to hold our child’s hand.
When I thought about this particular fashion challenge, this dress came to mind immediately! With my craving for the Fall season, I couldn’t help but jump to the opportunity to layer. Which explains why this dress became a top, as well as the denim dress beneath it! Without the jeans, this look would be completely different and more summer appropriate. Utilizing elements from summer and carrying these pieces into the cooler months, I’m excited to begin transitioning my wardrobe.
I must mention the unconventional method I came to acquire this adorable bag. What does one do with airline mileage that will not be used before the year is up? Purchase items with points! Thank you to my dear husband, for always thinking of me.

Jamberry Nails Teal Mini Polka and Vintage Chic
This Manicure Monday I am featuring one of my customers and her dear daughter! (Thank you so much for sharing this sweet picture with me. It brings me great joy!)
One of the best things I love about Jamberry Nails is that they make a product for little ones! This creates a wonderful bonding experience for a mom and her daughter. If you missed my post about Jamberry Juniors, you can read about it here, where I share my own experience with my daughter.
There are at least 10 Junior designs that will be discontinued at the end of the month. See my previous post for the list of retiring wraps to make sure you stock up on your favorite designs before they are forever gone!
Have a wonderful week!

Jamberry Nails Northern Lights
This particular design is one of my favorites, which is why I was disappointed to hear that it has been placed on the retired list of Jamberry nail wraps. That’s right, at the end of the month of August, Northern Lights, and all of the wraps in the list below will be gone for good. Get your favorites before it’s too late! here
Which designs would you save if you could?

Jamberry Nails StyleBox Exclusive for August and Rose Gold
Remember my previous post on the launch of Jamberry Nails‘ new monthly subscription box, StyleBox by Jamberry? here
Well, I was super excited when my very first StyleBox arrived this past Friday.
The StyleBox exclusive wrap for the month is the orchid colored chevron pattern which I love! This design is definitely my style and I couldn’t wait to apply them to my hands. I paired it with one of my favorite metallics, Rose Gold.
Here are some things that I love about this monthly subscription:
1) The exclusive wrap that only subscribers receive (it’s a great monthly surprise)
2) The $5 plus in savings, depending on your subscription. Normally 2 wraps would cost $30
3) It includes the Jamberry nail file and orange stick to help with the application
4) The monthly style guide!
This monthly style guide is a nice addition for women who want to coordinate their manicure and pedicure to their wardrobe selections! Giving inspiration and style options for ladies who want a “spring board” in picking the perfect outfit for a particular occasion.
I love that Jamberry Nails encourages women to embrace their own sense of style, as we are all unique; and to share how each of us style our StyleBox! See how I styled mine on Instagram!
May you all have a wonderful start to your week!
