I don’t share clothes too often, but when I find something I really love, I have to share it!
This skirt is technically high-waisted, but the ruching makes it really easy to adjust and wear it wherever it feels most comfortable. And it’s SO flattering. Oh, and I want to mention that the red color is currently on sale.

If you’re headed to Japan during the summertime, save this post!
Summer in Japan is HOT and humid, and after 11 days traveling through Tokyo and Kyoto, I definitely learned a few things about what to pack… and what not to pack.
I put my full summer packing list on the blog, complete with a FREE printable packing checklist. Comment JAPAN and I’ll send you the link! I also have the link in my bio.
Can you tell I love making these packing lists? 😂 Where should I do next?

Where have you traveled that had the BEST food?
For me, it’s Japan. 🇯🇵 We seriously didn’t have one bad meal the entire time we were there. Everything was SO good and so fresh.
Can you tell I’m both hungry, and have Japan on my mind? 😂 I’m working on a couple of new Japan blog posts right now, packed with tips and tricks, and going through all our old photos has me craving the food all over again.
In the meantime, our full 11-day Japan itinerary is already up on the blog, including where we stayed, what we did, and some of our favorite places we ate. Link in bio. #japanfood #japantravels #familytravel #japaneats #favoritefood

I put in my stories that Spud is back in his cone, and a lot of you reached out asking why, so I thought I’d give a little update.
He’s fine! We’re actually hoping it’s just a pimple and not cyst. 🤞
Oh yeah… and he still only has one ball. 😂 Never a dull day around here. #englishbulldog #englishbulldogpuppy #update #dogmomlife

Is anyone else baffled by how fast summer is speeding by?
Audrey starts school next week! 🤯 That just doesn’t seem right. Luckily, William doesn’t start classes until September, so at least we have a little breathing room before he starts.
We’ve been trying to squeeze in as much summer fun as we can these last few weeks. Beach days, amusement parks, baseball games… you name it, we’ve been doing it. And I’m definitely not ready for it to end.
How have you been spending your summer? And when do your kids head back to school? #summer #capitola #momlife #momlifebelike

This is why I can’t have nice things. Who wants to take bets on how long it lasts? Btw, I found mine at Costco, but I also have it linked online. Comment Pool and I will DM you the link. It’s actually quite nice for a blow up lounging pool. #englishbulldogpuppy #bulldog #tanningpool #adultblowuppool #dogmomlife

I know it’s August… but a little Halloween inspiration never hurt anyone. 🎃
Whose mind has already started drifting toward fall? My youngest started school today so I’m finally letting myself start thinking about themes for this year‘s Halloween tunnel. Any suggestions?

Packing for Peru is a little different than packing for most trips.
You’ll likely experience everything from cool mountain mornings to hot, humid days in the Amazon, so packing smart makes all the difference.
We spent two weeks exploring Peru with nothing but carry-ons, and this is exactly what worked for us (plus a few things I’d leave at home next time).

The town most travelers rush through ended up being one of our favorite places in Peru. 🇵🇪
Most people only spend a few hours in Ollantaytambo before catching the train to Machu Picchu, but this charming town deserves so much more.
As the last living Inca city, Ollantaytambo is the only town in Peru where people still live within the original Inca street layout. Walking its cobblestone streets feels like stepping back in time.
We spent our first three nights here after flying into Cusco, and it was the perfect place to acclimate while exploring the Sacred Valley. We wandered the ancient streets, explored the incredible Inca ruins, and took day trips to Moray, the Maras Salt Mines, and Chinchero.
If you’re planning a trip to Peru, don’t make Ollantaytambo just a stop on the way to Machu Picchu.
I’ve shared more about our stay in Ollantaytambo, our complete 14-day Peru itinerary, and 14 Peru travel tips I wish I’d known before visiting over at Staying Blonde. Links in bio. #ollantaytambo #perutravel #perutraveltips #machupicchu #traveltips
