Mix Book

in Family & Inspiration

Everyone is busy. There is so much to do and most of our stuff to do is good, but it can still be overwhelming. We live in a time that rewards busyness. I usually have my phone on me and love capturing and posting photos of my family…. but that’s as far as I go. My youngest son doesn’t even… View Post

Las Rosadas

in Featured, Travel, World of Lydia

Mexico!!! Awww Mexico. It has a special place in my heart. We just got home from a week of pure heaven at Las Rosadas and as we were leaving, Doug and I asked our boys what they liked more: Las Rosadas or home. After really thinking about it for a moment they all chanted “Las Rosadas!” That is how special… View Post

Knowing Your Child

in Family & Inspiration

I have three boys with very distinct personalities. Maverick could care less if he gets a time out and cries multiple times a day. Stirling is very stoic and if he sheds a tear, you better believe he is very hurt. He hates to be in trouble and it will effect his whole day if he gets a time out…. View Post

My Marriage Secret

in Blog, Family & Inspiration, Featured, World of Lydia

People ask me all the time, “What’s the secret to your happy marriage?”… and I really don’t have an amazing answer. There is no real secret but rather just a way of living. I know Doug and my faith is the foundation of our relationship. I have found a man that sees the world through the same lens that I… View Post

White Hot

in OUTFITS

I love white. It’s clean and pure and happy. It’s a blank slate to build on and feminine. My top is very versatile. I’ve worn it to several different type of functions. (Sale Option,  Blush Option, Other Option) AG are my favorite brand of jeans. I got these gray jeans on sale as a random online purchase because they were in sale… View Post

Confidence

in Blog, Family & Inspiration, Uncategorized

  Marilyn Monroe says, “I’m not going to let my lack of confidence ruin my chances” and she is Marilyn Monroe! Everyone struggles with confidence and some people are better at pushing it aside or using it to their advantage. As the saying goes, “A flower does not think of competing to the flower next to it, it just blooms.” I… View Post

Family Time

in Blog, Family & Inspiration

I think as moms we have to guard our time and say no to certain things so we can say yes to family. I have three boys and its a constant battle to not over schedule them. I value family time. The happiest of memories I have of my childhood are over family dinner, board games,or just bike rides with… View Post

Seeking the Lord

in Family & Inspiration, Featured

I think sometimes I don’t pray boldly because of fear. I’m scared if I make bold prayers and Gods doesn’t come through, I’ll have reason to doubt him. So, I have realized I will  just pray safe prayers. I don’t want to doubt God so I keep Him in this safe, confined bubble. The problem with that is God doesn’t… View Post

Hey Friends. As you can see from the title of this post, I have some big news to share with you today. RHOC has given me a great platform and I’m grateful for that. However, I feel like I can only handle this show one season at a time. I need a break! There is a lot of good that… View Post

Dream a little dream for me….

in Blog, Family & Inspiration, World of Lydia

Doug and I are both dreamers. We love to dream big and boldly. We have talked about moving to Hawaii, opening a ping pong club, and starting a clothing boutique. We talk about having more kids, redecorating our home, and what we would do if success was a guarantee. I think it is so important to dream.  Kids dream. They… View Post
