friday favorites

friday favorites | things I'm currently loving / going through

On Monday, I celebrated my 24th birthday, and I don’t know if it’s getting a year older or what but I’ve been really reflective on things lately. I’ve felt totally removed from where blogging is going, and ultimately I decided to take a step back. It’s hard to share that after I’ve been blogging 5 days a week for nearly four years, but I’m excited to take the pressure of this whole extra things off my plate. Instead of the usual posts, I’m hoping to just check in 1-2 times per week with posts that I enjoy sharing more than what I’ve been writing.

It’s crazy that October is already almost half over, but we’re still trying to make the most of the month. I’m hoping to rope D into doing fall things like getting pumpkins this weekend. I’ve also been working on reading more this month, and I’ve finished Dear Daughter and Finding Lily. I’m currently reading Why Not Me, which is making me literally laugh out loud.

I’m currently working on adding more work to my portfolio, especially my most recent project Sam Loves Cheese. I’ve been trying to get the post about that project up for the last couple of days, but I’m going to shoot for next week instead. I’m super happy with how it turned out since I did a few new things I haven’t ever tried before.

P.s. If you want, you can check out those boots and the book, which is currently half off, this weekend!

    Dear Kory,
    You are not defined by what you do but by how you feel about what you do. Quite honestly, I’ve been happily reading your newsletters not realizing I was missing your blog posts. And were I subscribed to them, I may well have been overwhelmed. I can tell you, every October, this being the third year, I post every single day of the month. I do it to prove it’s possible. And then I go back to 3 times weekly. You have such wisdom for a 24 year old (I’m 49) that I’m often astounded. You are doing an amazing and marvelous job at doing and I hope you give yourself a moment to know this and focus on the feeling of being.
    Happy Birthday Doll!
    Love,
    Shalagh

The past couple of weeks have been amazing and bit The past couple of weeks have been amazing and bittersweet. We spent a week in Tennessee with family, and then came home to get ready for yet another deployment. I’m not ready to say “see ya later,” but I never am. Here’s to soaking up every final moment (and knowing all of my clients are keeping me so busy for Q1 that this deployment will likely fly by 😅😜).
When Emma was born one of the things I was most ex When Emma was born one of the things I was most excited about was being creative with her. This year we’ve fallen in love with drawing with crayons (and pens and pencils), finger painted canvases, painted ice, and now we’ve painted pumpkins.
We woke up yesterday morning and decided to go sho We woke up yesterday morning and decided to go shopping. Then we remembered stores open late on Sundays and ain’t nobody got time to wait until 11am to start shopping. We made an impromptu trip to the beach instead, and it was the best. 😍🙌🏼
2018 is in the books, and it was one of the best a 2018 is in the books, and it was one of the best and hardest years for me. Being Emma’s mama has brought me so much joy - I literally cried when she laughed for the first time. But taking care of a newborn alone was a huge challenge that I didn’t think I was going to make it through many nights in early in the year.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We had an amazing summer while my husband was home, soaking up every second of time we had together before saying “see ya later” for another 4.5 months. We did a small home project, and we watched hundreds of hours of tv and movies after Emma went to bed.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
This was such an amazing year, even through the challenges, and I truthfully can’t wait to see what 2019 brings. Here’s to another amazing 12 months of life and love ✨

Do you ever stop and think about just how grateful Do you ever stop and think about just how grateful you are to be doing what you love with the freedom you have? This morning I got a call from my mom about them changing her hours at work, and the more I thought about it the more grateful it made me to be able to define what my hours are on my own.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
However, it also makes me sooo grateful that I'm able to help women grow their business so they can leave jobs that drain them, that change their hours on a whim, that force them to spend time away from their families.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I currently have just a couple more spots open for design projects before the end of the year, and I would love to fill them with women, like you, who are ready to tell their story through their branding and create a website that helps generate leads and sales. If that's you, feel free to DM me or check out the link in my profile for how we can work together.
