Wore: Denim – AG Jeans // Dress – Ella Moss // Jacket – Diesel
If you asked me…
If you asked me I would tell you that I’m so excited for the launch of the new iPad Snuggie next month. I would tell you that my goal is to launch the brand new design and colors on March 19th.
I would also tell you that I’m dying to show it to you and I’m beyond excited. I really hope you all love it as much as I do.
If you asked me I would tell you that THE SHINE PROJECT is coming to San Diego and I’m really hoping to go. I can’t wait to meet Ashley and have the chance to do something good for others.
If you asked me I would tell you that I’ve been researching schools like crazy. I know Katelyn still has another year before she start Kindergarten, but I feel like there are so many decisions to make. Homeschool, public school, private school.
UGH! What’s the right option?! Kyle and I are spending a lot of time in prayer about it. We want to find the perfect fit for Katelyn and for Brayden that will allow them to thrive in their environment.
If you asked me I would tell you that last week I made a pan of brownies for some friends we had over for dinner. Well, guess who finished the rest of the pan?
Yup! That would be me.
I would tell you that I’m pretty sure I’ve gained 3lbs stuffing my face with all those dark chocolate with chocolate chip brownies, but I’m too scared to step on the scale. I’m going to need to fit in some extra work outs this week.
If you asked me I would tell you that we are enjoying our Disneyland passes. To be honest I didn’t grow up going to Disneyland so I didn’t understand the magic of it all. But watching my kids faces light up each time they go, to see their excitement when they see the characters they recognize…. it’s pretty magical.
If you asked me I would tell you that my marriage is in an amazing place right now.
The other night I cried as I shared with Kyle how much I love him and how proud I am of him. I can’t even put into words how blessed I feel to know him. He is my best friend, my encourager and my confidant.
I know that we can weather any storm… as long as we continue to keep our focus on God, and continue to pray for one another.
If you asked me I would tell you that I’m excited for the months to come.
I would tell you that I’m beyond excited for SNAP Conference and all the amazing people I’ll get to meet. I can’t wait to spend four days with my amazing roommates and hug every single person who will hug me back. Are you going to SNAP? If you are, I’d love to meet you.
I would also tell you that I have an upcoming family trip to Hawaii I’m looking forward to as well.
Oh and did I mention my birthday is in 1 month?! Yup feel free to send me a present! haha #totallykidding
I do think we might need a Blog Celebration, what do you think?
If I asked you…. what would you tell me?
I’m linking up with The Pleated Poppy and Momma Go Round this week.

Hey there! What an amazing and inspiring post! I feel as if I could have written it about my life as well….especially the part about eating too many sweets and gaining a few lbs. I’m really looking forward to getting to know you and your blog! Take care!

I’m loving that white sweater/jacket!! 🙂 If you asked me I would tell you I’m pretty disappointed in myself for not saving up to go to Snap or Creative Estates this year… But that I am already saving for next year and it WILL happen!! Hope you have the best time on all your fun adventures coming up!!! Can’t wait to see the new snuggies!!
Rags to Stiches says
Thank you for your kind words friend. I’m so sad you’re not coming to SNAP this year too!!! Next year we’ll party it up!! Whoop, whoop. Heart you friend!
Kristina Gulino says
UGH I looooove Disneyland! My husband and I had passes together for about 8 years, and sadly, we had to let them expire this time around 🙁 Driving past the park and knowing you can’t go anymore is a tragic feeling! Hopefully we’ll opt for the monthly payments instead soon 🙂 Much more manageable 🙂

Thank you so much sweet friend! I’ve had that jacket for years and love it, but for a while there it didn’t fit… so it felt great to bring it back out of the closet.

I LOVE what you said about your marriage! Strong marriages and a strong relationship with the Lord will help you sail through the storm and walk through the minefields!

I LOVE the dress, the colour the stripes, it’s awesome. And the jeans underneath make it so fun. Looks like things are going well with you and you have a lot of fun things to look forward to.
Rags to Stiches says
Thank you friend. I’m kinda enjoying the whole dress over skinny jeans look. Might need to keep playing with it.
