The holidays don’t have to be perfect. Everything doesn’t have to be exactly how it was the year before. It’s ok to cut corners. It’s ok if everything doesn’t fall exactly into place how you imagined it would.
These are all the things I keep telling myself repeatedly this Christmas season. Most years I can get it all done, this year I can’t. And it is ok. Accepting that everything is not going to be how I expected it to be is helping me get through this next week or so without wearing myself out. For me, it started with cookie dough. Of course I love making homemade cookies, but this year I needed a little help from Pillsbury. And guess what?! The kids appreciated and loved them just the same. This is just a little reminder to take some time for you and give yourself a little grace this Christmas season. It will all be ok. 🎄#momlife #momlifebelike #momlifebestlife #christmastime #christmascrazy @pillsburybaking

Just a few of our favorite places we ate on Oahu. Each of these places were reasonably priced, and the food was delicious. You can find more about all of these restaurants in my “Five Days on Oahu” itinerary over at Stayingblonde.

I had always wanted to visit the Hawaii during the Christmas season. I was pleasantly surprised to find holiday decorations up, and festivities in full swing while we were there in late November. 🥰🎄🌴 #melekalikimaka #hawaiichristmas #hawaii #oahu #waikiki #waikikibeach #christmasinhawaii #merrychristmas

I was pleasantly surprised by just how much I loved Oahu. There is so much to see and do. These are a few of my favorite things we did during our stay. What did I miss and what do I need to go back for. Trust me, I am looking for excuses to go back! 😂 I have our full Five-day Oahu itinerary up on StayingBlonde.

#cvspartner Who else is on the go this holiday season? We have so much planned and CVS is helping me find everything I need for both on the road and at home.

These holiday arches are an easy and inexpensive diy to add some extra cheer to the holiday season.
They are made with PVC pipes and rebar. We use these same arches to build our Halloween tunnel. We keep them up and festive throughout the holiday season with Christmas lights. I have the full supply list and instructions on Staying Blonde. Link in bio. #christmasdecor #christmasdecorations #christmasdecorating #christmasarches #diychristmasdecor #diychristmasdecorations
