My September Favorites List Includes A Popeyes Dipping Sauce & Free People Tote Bag (opens the original)
Read excerpt
September is one of my favorite months. It’s when my daughter came into the world. It’s the end of summer and the beginning of fall, so we get to experience both seasons (a little frustrating wardrobe-wise, but lovely if you can overlook that snag). There’s just something about month nine that makes me happy. And what better way to pay homage as it comes to a close than with a list of things that amplified said joy over the last 30 days? Thanks for reading Beyond My By

My Daughter’s Glinda Themed Birthday Party Was Pure Magic (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I came up with a theme for my daughter’s second birthday party while planning her first. I’d had James Taylor’s “How Sweet It Is” stuck in my head for weeks, and one day, it just hit me: How Sweet It Is To Be Loved And Two.” Genius. Inspired! I loved it. I made a Pinterest mood board then and there. I was so proud of myself.
