The Perfect Gift for Him {Giveaway Time!!}

Hi friends!! I am finally back to my blogging game!

As most of you who follow me on IG know, I recently started working in a new full-time position and haven't been able to get to blogging or much of anything else lately, but today I'm back sharing a special anniversary gift for my hubby that I received from Jord Wood Watches! As you know I am obsessed with these watches and had to have one for my hubby. Our 9th wedding anniversary just passed and I wanted to give him a one of a kind gift that would reflect him and what he loves! 

My husband has been coaching high school lacrosse for the past fourteen years and was asked this year to coach football. As you can imagine he was stoked, and honored all at the same time. So, of course I thought, what a great way to celebrate our nine years together and his fourteen year coaching achievements, then with the gift of time.... and what makes it even more special is the fact that Jord does engraving now and I was able to add a really unique and special touch to his gift. I'm so excited to share this watch with you so I won't keep you waiting any longer!! Be sure to enter for your chance to win $25 gift card code so you can share the gift of time with someone special in your life! Look for the link in bold at the end of this post! It's super simple to enter, simply click the link and enter your email address and you are entered! 

I am so pleased with the quality and craftsmanship of this watch and I know you will be too!

I am so grateful to Jord for creating this timeless gift for my favorite coach!

The Gift of Words {with Sophistiqa}

Hi friends...

My apologies for my absence. I have been taking much of the fall away from blogging and social media to focus on my family and take time to prepare for the holiday season.

Now that I have had some much needed down time it's time to start decorating, baking and of course, Christmas shopping!!

This year I've decided to choose meaningful gifts that will last a lifetime.

If  you know me, you know that the written word means a great deal to me.

I am a firm believer in sending the right message to my children and there is no better way to do so than with inspirational words and quotes.

Just recently Sophistiqa sent me a handmade wood sign with my absolute favorite quote, Remember When.... It's words are simple and to the point.

Having this sign in our home for my children to read everyday is priceless.

We pass it in our walking and it can be seen from our kitchen, living and dining spaces, our most lived in rooms in our home. Our daughter Gracie asked me why I like this quote so much and I explained to her that it's the message I love.... Listen, do good, be good and you will do great things!

This sign makes the perfect Holiday gift, especially if you need a unique gift that is thoughtful and timeless. Sophistiqa has so many hand made signs with so many messages that are perfect in any home! I have my eye on a few more!!
