Sparkle, Sparkle, Shine…It’s Almost Christmas Time!
Today’s post is sponsored by Bona, but my love for their hardwood floor mop is all my own!
My parents are on their way here to visit this weekend. I don’t know if I’ve mentioned this on the blog before…probably have…but I am a CLEAN FREAK!!! When people come over to visit I go into my crazy cleaning mode. I love having hardwoods and I’ve been using a Bona Hardwood Floor Mop for the last 3 years. 
Bona is a non-toxic and no residue product. The Bona Hardwood Floor Mop takes easy cleaning to the next level. This ultimate hardwood floor mop combines Bona’s high quality, no residue professional cleaner with a durable, premium spray mop (with washable microfiber pad). Bona Hardwood Floor cleaners are non-toxic and GREENGUARD certified.
I’ve always been pleased with how Bona has cleaned my hardwoods and now they have a new product for quick and easy clean ups. These Bona Hardwood Floor Wet cleaning pads are awesome when you need to clean something in a hurry or run out of cleaner.
I am so excited for the holidays and having a sparkly & clean home makes me feel even better! I also LOVE the way Bona cleaner smells. I hate over powering scents and Bona makes my home smell fresh and clean.

Weekend Update
How was your weekend? My was CRAY CRAY!!! That’s how this time of year…it’s go, go, go!
Saturday morning we got up early to go to REI in Southlake where they had a brand new store opening. The first 100 customers got a gift card so we got there an hour early only to find about 200 people already in line. #FAIL
Connor needs a new coat because he has outgrown the one he had last year. Kids be expensive yo! We ended up ordering him one. Hopefully it will get here soon because I feel like a horrible parent sending him to school in a fleece and all the other kids look like Ralphie’s little brother bundled up in their winter wear.
We had good family time though walking around Southlake Town Square and checking out the Christmas decoration.
Terence is in need of new glasses. He tried these on, they are WAY out of his comfort zone and much more trendy than he would normally wear. What do you think ladies??? He needs an opinion:
Later that afternoon I went to take photos of this little nugget. He is such an angel and gave me baby fever like BAD! He is so adorable! I don’t do babies a lot, but he was such a doll. Check out my fall galleries HERE.
This isn’t a full resolution photo because I grabbed them off Instagram.
Saturday night I met up with some FABULOUS gals I’ve been blessed to become friends with through blogging. If you live in Texas then check out TEXAS WOMEN BLOGGERS it’s a great way to get connected to other bloggers in your area.
We had a yummy dinner and fellowship.
Yesterday I stayed in my jammies all day and got caught up on some editing….
And TODAY I finally FINALLY finally got my eggnog latte!!!!!
HALLELUJAH!!!
OshKosh B’gosh #GIVEHAPPY This Christmas
I participated in an Influencer Activation on behalf of Influence Central for OshKosh B’gosh. I received an OshKosh B’gosh gift card to purchase product and to thank me for my participation.
I’ve been super busy with Christmas photo sessions this season. I absolutely LOVE taking photos and it’s such a blessing! One of the questions I get asked a lot is “How should we dress?” or “What should we wear?” I usually tell people to mix and match. You don’t have to be all matchy matchy. Choose one or two colors that blend together well and after that just dress FUN!
I recently had the opportunity to shop at Oshkosh B’gosh and I chose Connor’s outfit for our family photos this year. I love Oshkosh B’gosh and I remember my Mom buying my sister and I overalls when we were around Connor’s age. Oshkosh B’gosh has been around forever, but it’s not just about overalls anymore…they have SO many cute options to choose from.
Here is what I chose for Connor:
Shop this look:
I shopped for all of these items online and everything was easy to find and it was fun to shop all the looks that were put together or create my own. My items came in less than a week, so if your in a hurry to find something for your little ones to wear this season…fear not! I also believe Oshkosh B’gosh has FREE SHIPPING right now!
If you would like to shop in store, find your nearest location HERE.
Here are the jammies we got too! These say “I ate Santa’s cookies”. So cute!
OshKosh B’gosh is a brand I’ve trusted and worn for years. The quality cannot be beat. If you want something that is going to last you until next year, then OshKosh B’gosh is the place.
It’s easy to #GIVEHAPPY, and even the smallest acts of kindness can help brighten someone’s day! We are planning on buying some clothing, socks, and shoes for two children this year. There are so many kids who won’t be getting anything for Christmas. Adopt a child in need and show them love & #GIVEHAPPY. It’s just as much fun to give as it is to receive.

Friday Favorites: November Edition
Here we go! It’s Friday and I’m linking up with some of my favorite bloggers!
I got some new glasses from Firmoo. This is the second time I’ve had glasses from them and every time I love them and they are unbeatable prices! I think these were under $40 bucks. You just type in your prescription and then you can try on any pair of glasses using the virtual feature that lets you add them to your photo. Right now Firmoo has a Veterans Day sale going on and you can get 20% off any pair with code: VDS20
On Wednesday my friend Becka invited a few of us out to preview their booth for Vegas. She also owns a cute shop called Kiki La Rue. She’s SO sweet and they are going to do great in Vegas…the booth was awesome!
I bought this shirt and I just love it! Perfect color for fall 🙂
Another thing I’m loving is this hoodie from Evy’s Tree. It is SO soft and I love how it has the holes at the bottom of the sleeves. When I’m shooting photos I can’t wear gloves, so this is FAB in my book!
I’m so glad the eggnog latte is about to make a return. In case you didn’t know that yet? Happy #redcup season!!! If you have never had a Kinder Santa then you MUST try them! We have the German Deli that sells them here. I also think you can order online. My Dad used to bring Kinder back from Germany all the time when we were little. So, Kinder is just a taste of my childhood. Maybe that’s why my sister and I are so crazy about it!
HAPPY WEEKEND EVERYONE!!!
Trick-Or-Treat 2014
We had a pretty laid back Halloween. Of course we always dress up where I work every year and that was fun! This years theme was “What did you want to be when you grew up?” There were some interesting costumes for sure! I was an artist 🙂
Only my boss thought I was a muffin….uhm???
