                             have fun, ok?  

 One of the most rewarding facets of being a stay at home mom and wifey is the gift of summer! For me, it’s all about putting aside my normal, organized (somewhat obsessive) routine, and well, quite frankly, making room for more things fun! I imagine this may all sound like an obvious no brainer to you. Though it can sometimes become a bit of a struggle to let go when the home space gets busier and the need to keep it cozy starts tugging at my inner heart strings. My hubby likes to call it “the crazies”, and perhaps there’s some comical truth to that. Though I’m pretty sure that homemade fish tacos, epic beach days with the fam, grilling out on the fly, rosé with my besties, and sleeping in till 9 is way more of what I’d like to be celebrating this summer!  💛 -jess xoxo
