Hi everyone! Soft Surroundings is celebrating their 11th year here in St. Louis at the Boulevard store (which is across from the Gallera). They also have 39 other locations across the country. They sent me this black velvet moto jacket to wear at my favorite St. Louis spot. Velvet is on trend this fall and Soft Surroundings has a lot of velvet merchandise along with other trendy and fashionable pieces, accessories, beauty and home decor products. They design most of their apparel and home products in-house and are known for their globally inspired designs and extremely soft fabrics. Why not take time out for yourself to look and feel your best?

There are many locations in St. Louis that I love, but I would have to say that the Grand Basin in front of the St. Louis Art Museum is my absolute favorite. I have a lot of fond memories of my husband and I paddle boating in the Grand Basin at sunset with a picnic dinner, taking the children to the art museum for Art Sundays... Fair St. Louis... the 1904 World's Fair was here. The St. Louis Art Museum and Grand Basin are in the beautiful Forest Park St. Louis (which was even voted best city park in 2016 by US Today!). I hope you enjoy these photos as much as I did visiting this area on a gorgeous fall day!

My Invisalign Journey (Trays 9-15) and Progression Photos

Today I am going to share a little more about My Invisalign Journey with you. Back in May, I shared my first Invisalign post HERE and talked about my first 8 trays with Invisalign. Today I am going to share some information and progression photos for Trays 9-15. And, no, I am not done with Invisalign yet. After your first round of trays (I had 15 trays), they start revision trays. Unfortunately, I found out I have 18 revision trays... I am currently on tray 3 of those. I will continue to share updates as my progress continues. I talk about why I went with Invisalign and what the entire process was like in my first post (see link below). I am not going to repeat it all in this post, but I will share my progression photos with you. If you have any questions, be sure to let me know in the comments.

Currently {January 2017}

I've decided to keep Currently active again for 2017! It is just such a fun post to do each month and I love updating all of you on what I've been up to besides the usual DIY/outfit posts!  Currently... Beyond Thrilled to see SO many #ShowYourMug Photos! Recently I worked with Community Coffee on a Giveaway, where you would have a chance to win a year's worth of free coffee in exchange for showing your mug and tagging me and Community Coffee on Instagram.

I was so excited every time one of you tagged me and I got to read about your favorite mug! Running Goal I started training for my 10th (that's crazy!) half marathon yesterday! I haven't really set any specific goals for myself with half marathons, except to try to PR. However, I haven't PR'ed my 2:06 time in a couple years! After training ...

Monogrammed Tulip Wreath w/ Burlap Bow {12 Months of Wreaths}

Welcome back to 12 Months of Wreaths! Hi everyone! Welcome back to our third month of 12 Months of Wreaths! I have been seeing a lot of tulip wreaths lately and I wanted to try my hand at making one myself. Wow, this wreath looks complicated, but it has been one of my quicker wreaths that I have made. I kept it simple, with a burlap bow on one side with tulip buds cascading out on both sides. I also added a script monogram 'A' to the other side. The tulip buds are already starting to pop up in my yard, so this wreath couldn't have been made at a more perfect time! Welcome to 12 Months of Wreaths - March!
