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?

Each year, I put together some of my favorite products to surprise a lucky reader friend.

One lucky winner will receive the following prizes:

–  Beautycounter faves! (daily face SPF, Beyond Gloss in Bare Shimmer, Eye Rescue Cream, and Color Intense Lipstick in Brunch)

– A pair of APL sneakers (my go-to sneakers for workouts and life)

– A pair of Zella leggings (the BEST)

I use this survey to plan out my content for the following year and your feedback is invaluable to me. I really want to make this blog something that you enjoy reading, with the content and topics that interest you, so I’m very thankful to those of you who take the time to share your thoughts!

    Highlights of the year were the birth of my baby boy this summer and the extra time I got to spend with all 3 of my boys at home (although this had challenges as well!)

  6. Natalie on December 21, 2020 at 12:57 pm

    A happy memory from this year was my sister having her first baby after struggling with fertility issues for so many years. I am so overjoyed to be an auntie!

  7. Renae on December 21, 2020 at 12:57 pm

    A happy memory from 2020 is when our family adopted a rescue dog. In my opinion, a home just isn’t complete without a dog!

    I’ve never really gotten into listening to Podcasts, but I’m giving your most recent one a listen now. I’ve been half-heartedly working on my diastasis recti. It’s my biggest struggle…pre my 2 pregnancies, my abs were my best feature. So this one really does interest me!

  19. Jamie on December 21, 2020 at 12:59 pm

    Favorite thing from 2020 is working from home/getting rid of my work commute! We’ve also had a lot of time for activities with just our family, which I’ve loved.

  20. Danielle Dao on December 21, 2020 at 12:59 pm

    Happy memories of 2020: Many camping trips, reconnecting with my brother, spending more time with my kids!

    Happy memory from 2020 is being able to watch my kindergartner do class virtually. Distance learning isn’t ideal, but on the bright side I have gotten to witness some super cute 5 year old antics on Google Meet!
