BEAUUUTIFUL - Whimsical September

There is something about a good 70-something degree cloudless day that just does something to your mood. Everybody just seems flat out happier, like the warm weather was a surprise or something. 🙂 Walking outside yesterday morning to an incredible temperature and blue sky brightened (literally) my entire day. We always know spring IS, in fact, going to come, but that doesn’t mean those first few days (or weeks) of warm weather are not heavenly. I just love seeing people bust out flip flops, shorts, and sundresses. I, for one, am ALWAYS ready to say a temporary GOODBYE to my boots and sweaters.

Jamie and I spent the day exploring several parts of downtown Clarksville (by foot), which included a REALLY popular lunch/dinner pub, several cute shops and boutiques (Jamie didn’t complain ONCE – brownie points), and the historic riverwalk. The place was packed, and we enjoyed people watching, dog watching, and walking/talking.

The rest of the day was spent in and out of many furniture stores shopping for our “perfect” living room set. WHY OH WHY is it when you LOOK for something you can NEVER find it, but when you’re NOT looking, you want EVERYTHING?! Annoying. That’s EXACTLY why I bought our kitchen table when I did. I wasn’t looking for it at all, and have yet to find anything better than it to date. Go me. 🙂

My stomach is growling and I have a dinner to make! Hope you’ve had a great week and enjoyed this INCREDIBLE weather as much as we have. 🙂

Hi! I’m Erica, and I absolutely adore sharing my life on this website with you! I come here almost daily to blab about all of the things related to being a regular wife and mother in today’s ever-evolving society. I share about our new home, what’s on our kitchen table, what we’re hanging in our closets, where we’re traveling to next, my crazy 5 a.m. work outs, how I make time for girlfriends, our faith, and much more. We always have a lot of balls in the air and somewhat thrive on the chaos. I believe in the power of story-telling as a form of inspiration and entertainment, so I’m here to do both! I was born and raised in north Alabama and recently re-planted roots here again after my husband transitioned out of the Army (he is now in the Reserve and it’s going so well!) I’m a super proud mom to three little girls (ages 7, 4, and 1) who seem to be the stars of the show around here (for good reason – they’re pretty great!) I’m so glad you found me and are here reading! I hope we can get to know each other here on the blog as well as Facebook and/or Instagram. xoxo
