It’s that time of year again! Do you have teachers to buy for? Or girlfriends that you are doing a holiday gift exchange with? Or maybe a Sister or Mom to buy for? Or hey…maybe you want one of these for yourselves? Am I right?!

Well I got you ladies! ;) This gift guide includes items ranging from $4-$28 and in most cases you may even have online promo codes to make them even cheaper!! Item #4 was a page favorite and best seller last year! Don’t miss that one! It has a tremendous value for the price! I gifted them to the teachers and to all my girlfriends last holiday!

I wanted to talk about teacher gifts for a sec! I have always believed in treating those that are good to my children, teach them, and take them under their wing. We have been blessed with amazing teachers, therapists, assistants, and staff at my boys schools over the years and I ENJOY shopping for them! Many of them we have known for years of working with my boys and I think of them as friends. No matter what your budget, you can find an amazing gift for teachers here. I strongly suggest writing a handwritten card to go with it. I like to let them know that our family appreciates them and all they do. You may have noticed I stayed away from mugs because there are SO MANY other fantastic options! I also am not crafty so I do not make my own gifts. They would be huge Pinterest fails so I’d rather not even attempt!

I hope you find a great option for someone on your list here! Be sure to follow me on Facebook because I will be posting finds and more gift ideas over the next few weeks leading up to Holiday!

So....Stan and I...we did a thing. We took our first "big" trip together just the two of us to celebrate our 15th Wedding Anniversary! ❤️ Sure we've done an overnight or two away from the boys but we were always nearby. This time we headed to Cheeca Resort in Islamorada, Florida Keys. We had some well needed alone time to "reconnect" 😉, eat, drink, sleep late, go fishing, lay by the pool, and laugh our asses off. I’m gonna share some pics of our trip and some of my outfits that I wore! Hope you enjoy!

(FYI…this post is not sponsored by Cheeca…just saying.)

When we arrived and could see the ocean from the entrance door…we knew we had truly “ARRIVED”. You can scroll through a few pics of the resort. Our view from our lunch at Cheeca’s restaurant Atlantic’s Edge was an amazing start to our trip after a long day of travel. We literally could feel ourselves decompressing as we just sat and looked out. That pier I later did some fishing off of.
