Blogging Loves

Can you believe that tomorrow is the last day of September? It feels like this month has flown by. This also means that this year's Blogtember Challenge with Bailey from Brave Love Blog is almost over. I definitely missed a few prompts but I think i'll do them in October so stay tuned for that.

Today's prompt is one that is so sweet because it's all about showing the love for some of my favorite bloggers. I truly want everyone to succeed and believe in cheering each lovely lady along so please go read these lovelies blogs and show them some love.

Your Fab Five
Share your favorite bloggers/besties and tell us what you love about them! Share a link and give a shout out.

Mamas Blessed
Ashley is one of those sweet ladies you want in your tribe. She's always cheering you on and helping you along.
She supports you 100% and never asks for anything in return.
I met Ashley through another blogger and it turns out we only live about 20 minutes away from each other.
We're planning to meet up soon but in the mean time, we chat every day. Wether it's just popping in to say hi or talking about blogging and Jamberry related things. She sells Jamberry ya'll and if you ever want to host a Facebook party she's the girl for the job!

Hall around Texas
Crystal is another one of those ladies you want in your tribe. Okay, let's be honest, every lady i'm talking about in this post is a lady you want in your tribe. Crystal is a Texas girl who loved her family and Jesus more than anything in the world. She inspires me to strengthen my relationship with Jesus and to be a shining example of Him through all things I do. Her little boy reminds me so much of my son when he was that age and I smile when I look at her pictures and read her stories about him because of that. Being a boy mom is full of adventures and fun-her blog reflects that.

Sarah Emily Blogs
Sarah is like my sister from another mister. Yes I went there! I swear it seems like we were separated. She's full of happiness and her life definitely reflects that. She's always there to help you along when you're having a bad day or need a friend to talk to.
She's the kind who will take time out of her busy life to send you a care package because she knows you've been struggling.

Vintage Simply Love
Janelle is such a sweet soul. Her blog is one of those that is full of comfort and little snaps of life that just inspire you.
When i'm feeling blue I hop on to her blog or instagram and feel so happy and inspired again.
If I had to describe her in one word it would be, Joyful. She can take the hardest of times and make it look so beautiful.
She always finds the happiness in everything. I can tell you she's one of those people who just makes you feel content,
like you've known her forever.

Sweet Tea and Hydrangeas
Mistle is just a doll! She's always so happy and inspiring.
She's got ideas and she's not afraid to share them. She's seriously the sweetest.
If you need anything you can run to this girl.
She's one of the ladies I can always count on to leave love on my posts and interact with me.
And in fact, she and I have talked about doing a collaboration link up.


If I had to sum up my blogging tribe these fabulous five ladies are it. Of course there are others that I interact with but these ladies are the first ones I run to their sites and instagram feeds to see what they're doing now. All of these ladies are going places y'all because they are genuinely themselves. They work hard and love harder. They're always cheering everyone else along and realize that there is room for all of us to succeed. These are the ladies that I would consider friends outside of the blogging world, too because they are everything I want in true friends. So please, go check out their sites and leave them some love, too.

Grandma Approved Family Recipe

The kitchen is the heart of the home and for me it holds so many memories. So many of my memories revolve around food.

I remember when I was just a tiny little girl and we'd go visit my great grandmother on the weekends. She always had a home cooked meal ready. It was never a small meal either, it was a full blown southern meal. I think this is where my love of food began. I remember being in her tiny kitchen filled with the smells of food and all the love in the world. She was an amazing cook. And all those times I'd spend the night with my Grandma and she and I would bake cookies. And the holidays spent in the kitchen cooking for hours with my parents. I especially love baking with my mom during the holidays.

Food brings people together but to me, a great meal is so much more than that. The laughter and stories shared and the memories created are what it's all about. So today's Blogtember Challenge with Bailey from Brave Love Blog is one that I absolutely adore.

A family recipe (if grandma allows, of course)!

My Grandma's Coke Cake

Cozy Fall Favorites

Today is my most favorite day of the year! Okay, that might be a slight exaggeration but this day is one of my favorite days of the year because it's the first day of fall. I love so much about this time of year. I love the colors of the leaves changing, the cool crisp air, apple dumplings with vanilla ice cream, pumpkin decorations, sweaters, boots, and plaid scarves. Actually all the plaid. Something about autumn feels cozy and I think that's why it's my favorite time of year. Don't get me wrong, I love summer just as much when it's time for it to roll around but fall is my jam. What I absolutely love the most about it are the celebrations. My husband and I's first anniversary is this coming Monday (9-26) then we have Halloween, Thanksgiving, my Dad's Birthday, and the Christmas season. I'm all about togetherness and cozyness and celebrations!

Today's prompt for Blogtember with Bailey from Brave Love Blog is fall favorites.
Share your must-haves for this season.

Enjoy the pictures

Willow loves all my fall favorites.

What are your fall favorites?

We All Scream for Ice Cream

I scream. You scream. We all scream for ice cream. There is something about this frozen sweetness that is hard to resist. I remember when I was younger and my daddy would make my brothers and I ice cream. The way he did it was super special because he didn't just scoop it out of the carton into a bowl. You see, he had a special twist on it. He put our ice cream in a coffee mug and added milk. I still eat my ice cream like that and so does he. It wasn't long ago my hubby, son & I were at my parent's house and my dad pulled out the ice cream and we ate it in our mugs with milk.

My mom always had her things that made ice cream special, too. She has everything from fancy bowls to all the toppings you could ever want and she always made sure there were waffle cones in the pantry, too. I only like my ice cream in mugs or waffle cones. Picky much? Yeah, I kinda am and I blame my parents for that one.

You can see that ice cream holds all kinds of memories for me and so it was super special to be able to start the next chapter of my life with my now hubby by having an engagement photo shoot in my Aunt and Uncle's vintagey ice cream parlor.

My world may actually revolve around ice cream so today's prompt for Blogtember with Bailey from Brave Love Blog is
If you were a flavor of ice cream, which flavor would you be? Why?

Since an ice cream cake it's a flavor, i'd be birthday cake flavored ice cream because who doesn't love those fun little colorful bursts of extra sugary goodness inside an already amazing sugary treat? It's like confetti in your ice cream! I imagine that i'd be served at all the parties, making everyone happy and sugar filled or i'd make someone's sad day happy with my colorful sugary-ness. I think that happiness is a mug full of birthday cake ice cream with milk and since I believe everyday should be celebrated birthday cake ice cream is the way to do that!

Who can be mad or sad when they're eating confetti filled, cake flavored ice cream?

Stress Relief

Hi Peachies! We made it! It's Friday! I'm sooo excited for sleeping in and coffee with my love in the morning. That's my favorite part of the weekends. You know what else I love? The Blogtember link up with Bailey from Brave Love Blog. Today's prompt is...

How do you de-stress/take care of yourself?

I'm such a huge believer in taking care of myself because if i'm not good for myself then how can I be good for anyone else?

I have so many ways I love to de-stress and relax and I want to share them with you and hopefully help you find some inspiration in my favorite ways to do just that.


+ {Get Outside}
There is no better way to de-stress and relax than to get outside.
Sometimes my Willow and I will take walks around the yard and enjoy the beauty of nature.
Other times we sit out of the front porch and soak in the sun.

+ {Baths}
Now, of course, this is a go to for every girl.
Light a candle, drop a bath bomb in the water, and relax.
I like to up my relaxing bath with facial masks, too.


Speaking of facial masks...


+ {Nightly Facial Routine}
Slipping upstairs to do my nightly facial skin care routine is another one of my favorite ways to de-stress.
In the last couple months I've really started to enjoy 20 minutes of taking care of me.
I love the feel of going to bed with a fresh face.

+ {Turning off the t.v.}
I won't lie. I've become a t.v. junkie during the day.
My hubby is at work, my son is at school and it's just me and the dog.
I blog and watch so much t.v. Sometimes I even Netflix and chill.
But one of my favorite ways to de-stress is to turn of the t.v., open all the blinds, light candles and blog and listen to podcasts.

+ {Make-Up}
I love playing in make up but it really de-stresses me to create different make up looks.
This is a fairly new love of mine but it has become a de-stressing method for me.

+ {Coloring}
This craze has caught on lately and guess who fell victim? That's right. This girl!
I love grabbing my pens, pencils, and books and sitting down to color away the stress of the day.

+ {Dancing with my Hubby}
There are times when he'll just grab my hand and dance with me in the kitchen, in our bedroom, the office, the back porch.
I always roll my eyes and laugh uncontrollably while he spins me around but I love it more than anything.

+ {Pinterest}
I have a board of funny things called Laughing Out Loud. When i'm stressed I look at all the pins i've pinned on this board and feel so much less stressed.

You can see the board here.

+ {On Line Shopping}
I love zoning out and shopping on line. I mean, what's better than sitting on your couch in yoga pants and your favorite tee shirt with a glass of wine and no bra? Nothing, right?
Sometimes I even fill up my cart with all the things I would like to buy from a shop just to see how much it would cost.
Answer always equals more money than I have but it's a great stress reliever.

+ {Blog}
This blog is my escape y'all. It's my happy place and a place I definitely check in to to de-stress.
When i'm working on my blog I zone out and am so focused on my work that it leave me feeling accomplished and relaxed.

+ {Get out of the house}
I'm such a homebody y'all and I'm usually very content that way but sometimes I find that just getting out and smiling at strangers and
interacting with other humans really helps me de-stress.
Some of the worst days i've had evened up being better all because I was out
of the house and striking up conversations with other people.

I'm working on adding meditation and yoga back into my daily life because I find that helps me de-stress and un-wind so incredibly much.
Share with me some of your favorite ways to relax and de-stress.

Fall Is In The Air

Hi Peachies. Autumn is my absolute favorite time of year. I think I said that back at the beginning of the summer, too but I really do love fall. There is something about the cool, crisp air and the vibrant colors of the leaves changing that feels so refreshing. I love pulling out all my favorite boots and scarves and spending time snuggling outside under blankets. Fall makes me feel so content.

Today's Blogtember Challenge with Bailey from Brave Love Blog is to create a mood board so naturally I had to make mine all about what i'm most excited about-fall!

I'm ready for hot apple cider, cozy sweaters, vibrant leaves changing colors, plaid everything and pumpkins everywhere.

What's on your bucket list for fall?

Switching Lives

Hi Peachies! If you could switch lives with anyone for a day, who would you choose? There are so many things I think about when I think who i'd like to switch lives with for a day. She's got to be someone who is strong, independent but loves hard. Someone who has talent and is a good person. Someone who is true to who they are and seems like the girl next door type. Someone you can imagine spending girls days with doing mani/pedis and coffee dates. She's got to have a strong sense of self and caring for others. Someone whose life is like mine but more glamorous.


There are no less than 10 people i'd love to switch places with just for a day. Rebel Wilson, because she's hilarious. Pink because she's strong, beautiful and confident. Ellen DeGeneres because she's very kind and giving. Reese Witherspoon because she's a southern belle like me and she's a fighter for women. Sophia Amoruso because she's the ultimate #girlboss. JoAnna Gaines because she's all about family, faith, and helping others.

But there is one lady who fits the standards for someone I'd like to switch places with, Jessie James Decker. She's a Southern girl who can sing, has an incredible marriage and two beautiful kids. You can tell she loves her family unconditionally and supports her husbands dreams, too. What I love most about her she's un-apologetically herself. She's the kind of person who is so gorgeous but I don't even think she sees it. Her family is her #1. She seems so down to earth and fun. She's basically #lifegoals. Oh, and if I was Jessie James Decker for a day I'd be belting out some tunes, for sure.

Her Lights Down Low video is everything.


So if you could be anybody just for a day, who would you choose?

Come Away With Me

Hi Loves! How special do you feel? You get a double dose of me today because I decided to participate in today's Blogtember post with Bailey from Brave Love Blog.

Today it's all about where you'd love to travel.

If you could go anywhere in the world, where would you go? Why?

For me the answer is easy and it's kinda, maybe cheating a little bit because it's somewhere i've been. If you've been around me or my blog in the last year you've heard me rave about Kauai, Hawaii. It's heaven on earth and I would live there if I could. My husband & I went there last September/October on our honeymoon and fell in love. Well, more in love with each other but in love with the island itself. It's a tiny island and from the resort we could drive 45 minutes to an hour either way to the either end of the island. Yes, you literally drive until the road stops. It's not like you can drive off a cliff into the ocean or anything, because that's what my worried mind thought. The road just ends right before a mountain. It was the most marvelous sight i've ever seen.

As you drive along scenic highways you can see everything from the beach to the mountains to fields and crops. They even have their version of the Grand Canyon, which was an amazing sight to see.

Several days on our honeymoon my hubby and I did just that. We got in our car and drove until we found sights we wanted to see and little old towns we stopped and visited. Mingling with the locals was the best part of the entire trip. Everyone there seems so happy and friendly and would talk to you for hours on end. I can't say enough amazing things about Kauai. The atmosphere is so relaxed and laid back. No one gets in a hurry for anything. Their rush hour traffic is literally about 20 cars and roads only close if there is an accident. In the older town there are some of the best hole in the wall restaurants you have to try. It's such a small, safe town that the kids walk to and from school.

One of the days we were eating lunch at the smallest hole in the wall when a young girl, maybe 12, walked down the street to her parent's restaurant that we were eating at, after school was out. She changed into a sports uniform (soccer I think) and walked back up to school for practice. I think that's when I was hooked. I want so desperately to raise my kids in that kind of environment.

I would 100% go back to Kauai tomorrow if someone said lets go.
We're planning a trip back with our son in a few years.

If you want a laid back place to go, Kauai is it. And if you do go, spend as much time with the locals as you can. They know how to live.
I can promise you this. It's the kind of place that gets in your soul and leaves you longing for it long after you're gone. To me this is the epitome of wanderlust.

Joyful

Hi Peachies. Happy Wednesday loves. We're half way through the week and what better way to celebrate than sitting on my couch with the sun shining through the windows smelling the most lovely Relax scent in my diffuser and working on today's Blogtember post.

Today's blogtember challenge is to share five things that bring you joy.

Of course my family and friends bring me joy. Being a wife is my dream come true. So is being a mom but I want to share five other things that bring me joy on a deeper level.

+ one. shopping small. I love supporting small businesses because I love making other people's dreams come true. I'm all about cheering everyone on because there is enough room in this world for us to all succeed and I want that for each one of us.

+ two. being a wife. I dreamed for 30 years of being a wife. I prayed for the man that would love me and my son and make us a complete family. Little did I know he was in front of me the whole time. I've learned a lot about myself through this first year of marriage
and I have grown a lot, too. Little did I know what a ride this year would be but I wouldn't change any of it because it had brought us closer and made us stronger. I know now what it truly means to have someone beside you in good times and bad and that's a feeling I can't explain.

+ three. coffee. I’m a coffee-a-holic. I can’t function in the mornings without it and i’m a Mama Bear until I have it. I started drinking coffee while living at home and my dad, brother, and Grandpa would drink it. A lot of mornings started off by having a cup of coffee with one of the men who I adore.

Now I love coffee on the weekends the most. I’ve usually slept in and as soon as my husband hears me stirring he comes and asks me if i’m ready for a cup. He makes it the best and i’m not even sure how (marrying a former barista is a dream come true) and we enjoy our slow mornings, sipping coffee together. Even though my Grandpa has since passed, my brother got married and moved away, and I no longer live with my parents, I still get to enjoy my morning coffee with one of the men I adore most.

+ four. the sky. I'm always enamored with the sky. I can't help but look at the sky and feel completely overwhelmed knowing that I am one small person in this huge world. And that I can still make a difference. I like to think my loved ones who have passed are looking down on me from Heaven, smiling.

+five. peonies. They're my favorite flowers ever but this year I was able to grow one beautiful one of my own.
My love of them grew even more.


Share with me loves.
What brings you joy?

Blogtember Challenge-About Me

Hi Peachies. TGIF. It's been a rollercoaster of a week. I'm exhausted in every sense of the word. My Memama (grandma) is in the hospital and not doing well. She is showing signs of improvements though so that's a great thing and proof that there is power in prayers. All I know is that i'm beyond ready to snuggle up with my loves and enjoy a cozy, relaxing weekend. It's even better that it's a 3 day weekend. I hope to get a ton of blogging done over the weekend, too. Especially since I found out this morning that the sweet Bailey from Brave Love Blog is doing the Blogtember Challenge again.

The Blogtember Challenge is a daily challenge that begins September 1st (I'm already behind) where you write a post about the prompt of the day then link up on Bailey's page. This is such a great way to meet new bloggers and get to know more about each other. I made friends from this link up last year and it was so much fun.

There are no real rules, just use #blogtemberchallenge when you share your posts on social media.

Day 1:Introduce Yourself

Hey Y'all. So my name is Leslie and I blog here (of course you now that because you are here).
I'm also a wife, about to celebrate my one year anniversary on the 26th of this month and a mom to a teenage boy and a fur baby named Willow.

I love wine, coffee, donuts, and cupcakes. If you want to make me happy or get me to do something for you just bring me donuts. Coffee is life. It keeps me going until it's acceptable to drink wine. I try to be a #girlboss but all I like naps more than I like being #girlboss. I love anything vintage and shopping local. Small boutiques, you got my business. I'm an etsy junkie. Oh, and Jane.come, too. Have you been on Jane.com? Give me everything please and thank you. I like to go to websites and fill my cart up with all the things I can't buy just to see how much it would cost. I love getting happy mail so much that when I realize I won't have any coming in for a while I get sad.

I could spend my entire life on the beach and be happy as a seagull eating french fries. Are they happy? Anyway, I would gladly be a beach bum. I love the beach so much that I got married there and it was beautiful. Maybe i'm partial but it was the most beautiful wedding i've ever been to.

I'm a Georgia girl and proud of that but after going to Hawaii on our honeymoon, i'd move there in a heartbeat. Kauai is amazing. All my family and friends have heard me gush over Kauai this last year but it really is heaven on earth.

I enjoy cooking with my husband, blogging, making jewelry, and collecting books that I have hopes and dreams of reading.
I have a thing for cute mugs, aprons, blankets, owls, water bottles/tumblers, nail polishes, make up brushes, lip sticks and succulents.

If I was going to be on a Real Housewives show my tag line would be "a modern day June Cleaver want to be with Lucy antics" because that's my life. I try to be the perfect housewife/mom but I tend to do it with Lucille Ball style. If you hung around my family for a day you'd end up laughing hysterically or breaking out into song and dance with us because that's how we roll. Life's too short to be serious all the time.
