Annual survey + Favorite Things Giveaway
Hi friends! As we put the cherry on top of the 2020 dumpster fire and say ADIOS to this year, I wanted to take a minute to say thank you.
I don’t take this blog or the work I’m able to do for granted, ever. Every single day I’m excited to connect with all of you in this space which first began when the Pilot told me to “stop shopping online so much and find a hobby that doesn’t cost anything.” <— lol. The blog has grown and changed so much over the years, and whether you’re an OG blog reader (thank you!!!) or a new friend (hi! welcome!!), I hope you know how much I appreciate you hanging out with me over here.
Every click, comment, follow, like, product purchase, and pageview directly helps our family and I am sending you so much love and gratitude.
How about a little giveaway?

My happiest memory of 2020 is being able to visit family in the summer (when restrictions were looser and travel was allowed). I feel very grateful that I was able to see them this year!
Happy Memory of 2020 getting real estate license!

Thankful that I have a job and a home and that my children have the same. Have been blessed as many have lost these things. In 2020 My granddaughter got a diagnosis for a medical problem that she was dealing with and is finally on the mend and healthy.
Thank you for all that you do on this website- it’s the first one that I read in the morning!
that means so much to me – thank you!
Happy memory from 2020 was watching my 2 year old twin boys learn to ride their strider bikes!! They were cruising the whole neighborhood by then end of the summer, and I was fortunate to be working from home to be there with them!

We went as a family to Lake Tahoe this past August for a week. It was awesome to be out in nature!
A happy memory from 2020, is really just long walks I took with my family. It was amazing to see how much my kids grew this year and see them going from sitting in the stroller to walking with us.
those are some of my favorite memories, too! both kids started riding bikes without training wheels back in march and now they’re pros
My favorite memory from 2020 was seeing he bioluminescence algae in San Diego this past spring. So magical.

A happy memory of this year was all the time I spent outside. Even though I missed the gym in some ways, it was nice to take more walks and hikes and be out in nature.

Something happy from 2020 – we got the sweetest pup to add to the family. He serendipitously fell into our lives and we adore him!
