Happy New Year Darlings!

What a year! Isn't it crazy to look over the past twelve months? Though some days might feel insignificant, all together the ups and downs of everyday life make for an amazing year in review. I decided to share some of my favorite memories from 2014.

The husband and I were thrilled to find out we would be having our first baby.

And after endless guesses, we found out it was going to be a girl! 

A little later in the year, I was so excited and absolutely honored to be a part of UVU's Alumni magazine.

Then the pugs and I celebrated birthday month in March--like party animals.

 

Then came third trimester in late spring.

Then in May I released the final book in my Shapeshifter trilogy, The Secret of Darkwood Castle. I was overwhelmed by your support! 

In early June I celebrated my five year anniversary with the love of my life. 

Then.........Our sweet baby girl came in late June! 

Our lives became completely centered around our little girl, and were were so excited to bless her in September.

A little later in fall we went on our first family trip to Florida (traveling with a baby was a whole different experience).

In the past couple of months, we watched this blue-eyed babe grow up WAY too fast before our eyes. 

So much happened in 2014 to our little family and I can't what to see what new adventures 2015 has in store. I hope you had a wonderful year and wish you much happiness and success in this new year! 

Running Into Fall

I love staple clothing items that stand the test of time. This outfit is one of my favorites because it's so versatile! These long boots are from Arizona Jean company and are a steal. The top is from Brass Plum. I'ts long, comfy and I've worn it in summer, fall, and winter. The leggings are from Lulu Lemon, which is a bit pricier, but I've used them for everything! They're actually athletic pants made of incredibly thick spandex material. They're great for any season and I swear more flattering than regular leggings. I consider certain clothing pieces an investment--these leggings are one of those pieces. If you can wear it to work out in, as leggings, throughout your pregnancy, and all year long, it's worth it!

Edgy All-American

I love a fun edgy look, especially when there are soft elements mixed in. This look was centered around these Arizona boots which I've LOVED and are on sale right now. I think it's fun to mix together looks that you might not normally put together, like combat boots with ringlets, or a waist-tied sweatshirt with dark denim. Now that it's getting a little colder, I can't wait to turn my closet upside down with sweaters, boots, and and warmer looks. Fall is coming!

Just My Style

We've been enjoying the last of these warm days before fall is officially here. I'm sad to end the days of swimming, eating snow cones, and basking in the sun, but I'm really excited for all the fun fall brings too.

I love bright colors and I couldn't pass up on this turquoise tee from AEO Factory. Once again, I'm ecstatic to say that both the shirt and denim on this piece were under twelve dollars! The necklace is not available through H&M.com anymore, but I've posted a similar beauty. Details and links below, have a fabulous week!
