💖Tell Me Something Good:💖⠀
⠀
💕Feeling like one of these? Ya. I think we all are right now. The tension, stress and sadness in the air are valid and hard.⠀
⠀
So let’s make this a place for uplifting news. Tell me something that made you smile recently.⠀
⠀
Things that Have Brought Me Joy Recently:⠀
💖family night at the drive in (even if I did fall asleep for half the movie)⠀
💕the sound of rain Sunday morning⠀
💖the fact that it’s almost gingerbread cookie season⠀
💕we have cautious, well thought out plans to see my family for the first time since March and I can’t wait⠀
💖I got a text that my ballot has been received and counted ⠀
⠀
Now tell me…..what is bringing you Joy right now?

👻Family costumes…..yay or nay?👻⠀
⠀
🎃Flashback: this may be my favorite one we’ve done so far (mostly because Robbie hadn’t seen any of the movies at the time and didn’t understand who he was)…..but this year’s? It might be even better. Can you guess what we decided on? ⠀
⠀
Hints:⠀
👻Lydia picked ⠀
👻It’s princess related ⠀
👻one of us is an animal⠀
⠀
🎃Halloween Activity of the day: stalking the #colormehalloween hashtag for throwback Disney Parks Halloween photos……and missing Oogie Boogie Bash

💕Double tap if you can count the self care mome

💕Double tap if you can count the self care moments you had today on one hand. <AD>💕⠀
⠀
💖I know guys, I know. From holiday prep to distance learning.....we’re all running on fumes lately and if you’re anything like me? Self care isn’t exactly at the top of the to do list.⠀
⠀
💖One thing I have committed to? These morning rides in our garage to start the day. They help me take a little time for myself, to get some endorphins, and to provide stress release. Today I teamed up with @Pedsbrand to share a day in my self care shoes (or socks).....and I realized, there are a few more moments I can work into my day.⠀
⠀
💖My bike rides aren’t the only daily habit....so are the socks I wear all day long. From bike to distance learning classroom (aka our dining room).....I’ve been wearing Peds All Day Active No Show Socks. They’re the first no show socks I’ve tried that actually STAY PUT (even during exercise). From the comfortable toe seam to the breathable mesh and double tabs.....they actually make it through the day with me from bike to.....dining room classroom.⠀
⠀
Do you start your day with a form of self care? Exercise? Quiet time? What works for YOU? #SelfCareWithPeds #Peds #PedsStyle @Pedsbrand <Peds Partner>⠀

⠀
🌊BWHAHAA. How could I not? These surfing Santa pajamas just needed a beach background. I mean, how Southern California can you get? ⠀
⠀
🌊Don’t worry, Robbie is off the hook for another year. But, can you go ahead and give him some kudos in the comments? Tell the truth….would your family trek to the beach for these photos?⠀
⠀
🌊These adorable pajamas are super soft, and are a total steal at Kohl’s (they sent them to us as a holiday gift and I can’t tell you how excited I was when I saw the print). Yes, you can also shoot them in the privacy of your own home if you’re not quite as extra as I am.⠀

⚡️⚡️I Smell……..CHILDREN!⚡️⚡️⠀
⠀
🎃I know, I know……we’re all talking about Halloween plans for the kids, but I had to have a little fun too. I mean, we’re all smelling, seeing and hearing our kids constantly…..so might as well get in on the fun right?⠀
⠀
👻Halloween is one of my favorite holidays, and when I was teaching I used to have a separate costume for school and home. So? We’re doing that this year too. This is my first costume (it might all be downhill from here, does it get any better?)…….but the next one? Is a family costume.⠀
⠀
🧹Hint: it’s Disney themed too. Can you guess what it is?⠀
⠀
⚡️What are you dressing up as? I know Halloween looks a little different this year, but…..we can still celebrate right? Even if those Halloween parties are virtual! ⠀
⠀
🎃Thank you to our friends at Shop Disney for helping us celebrate Halloween at home by sending this adorable costume, now don’t judge if I wear it in the background of Lydia’s zoom classes this week, ha! You can use #DisneyHalloMoments to look for Halloween at Home inspo! ⠀

💕 What did you call your dad growing up?💕⠀

💕 What did you call your dad growing up?💕⠀
⠀
💖However you say it…..it’s filled with love. There is something so special about dads and their daughters. One of the things I love most about Robbie? The special relationship he has with Lydia. Lately they’ve been going on their own date nights (she even puts on her most grown up clothes for them) and it’s absolutely adorable (they are obsessed with going to this fancy ice cream shop near us that makes the BEST homemade ice cream sandwiches).⠀
⠀
💖#PenguinKidsPartner You guys know I love a great children’s book (it’s basically my love language) and this one from @penguinkids? Is absolutely adorable (a GREAT gift idea). What We’ll Build: Plans For Our Together Future is the latest book from @OliverJeffers (one of our favorites). He creates beautiful stories with illustrations that are stunning….and this one? No exception. This sweet book shares a father and daughter who are building a life together with tools (tear jerker warning). ⠀
⠀
💖This is the perfect holiday gift for dads (and their daughters) everywhere.⠀
⠀
💖Cheers to the dads, who build up our daughters and encourage them to be the superwomen they are becoming. #WhatWellBuild💖
