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:

    My happy memory was my fiancé and I buying our first house together after postponing our wedding! Every time. Iw all in the door I’m reminded of our accomplishments and hard work. Even though we were both sad to postpone our wedding, finally being able to live together added a lotta sweetness to this yucky year.

    My favorite memory was actually the day that we were supposed to get married. My fiancée and I went away for a (socially-distanced) long weekend and took the time to reconnect with each other. It turned what should have been a sad weekend (postponed wedding and all) into such a joyous weekend.

  9. Danielle L on December 21, 2020 at 3:33 pm

    A happy memory from the year is hanging out in our tiny backyard in the sun with the kiddos… swinging in the hammock and digging in the dirt. 😀 We’re in CA, so we can still do that, but there were way more flowers over the summer.

    A good memory from 2020, all the time I got to spend with my kids! Daycare guilt is real and this year forced us to work without it. I’m thankful, sorry for the reason it had to happen and anyone else’s hardship but so glad for the time with them!

    I don’t have a specific memory, but I have an almost 2 year old, so there’s a lot of fun times. He loves to dance, especially to holiday music! It’s so cute.
