Back to School | Why We Look Forward to It + Giveaway

Spread the love

Back to School - Why We Look Forward to It | Southern Made BlogWho’s ready for fall?! I know we are.  We’re gearing up for the back to school season and looking forward to so many things.  I know I’m excited to get back to a routine and for cooler weather. The fall and winter months have always been my favorite and are definitely special now since I have children.  There are so many opportunities to make memories as a family and I take will take all of them I can get.  My boys are only little for so long and I want to take any moment to make memories with them that I can.  You can just call me the mamarazzi! Any chance I have to take pictures of my littles to capture them in this moment of our lives, I’m all about it.  Back to school is just another perfect opportunity.

I am so obsessed with the back to school line that Gymboree has right now.  Everything is so adorable and the details are so stinkin’ cute!!  There are so many great pieces for school, play dates, church, and anything else you would need.  My boys won’t always let me dress them, so I’m taking full advantage while I still can.  If I can find matching outfits… SCORE! I’m in heaven! Lol!

Harper starts Mother’s Day Out in a couple of weeks and is beyond excited.  Last year he cried when I picked him up because he didn’t want to come home.  It’s amazing that he loves “school” so much and it’s definitely better than the alternative.  We really enjoyed summer but he and I both are excited about getting back to a weekly routine and school is great for the both of us.  He thrives in a setting where he can interact with other kids his age and I’m able to get so much done which in turn means more quality time together when he’s home.

I’m so excited to be adding another boy to this crazy crew of mine. As Rohen gets older and I see his relationship with Harper grow, it just brings so much joy to my mama heart.  They are so goofy and there is always giggling throughout the house.  It’s the sweetest thing! They’re going to be the best big brothers to this new little one.

Thanks to Gymboree for all of the adorable clothes for fall!!

You can shop too because Gymboree is giving one of y’all a $50 gift card!! Enter below!

✨Standing where our home will be in Louisiana. W ✨Standing where our home will be in Louisiana. We’re leaving Tennessee and moving back. ✨

We felt a nudge about 6 months ago to start praying about moving back to Louisiana. So, pray we did! Lots and lots of it. I swore we’d never leave Franklin, so I was a bit confused as to why the Lord had put this on my heart. But I know that His plans are always better than our own. Month after month I softened to the idea and he started working out all the details. 

During spring break we made a trip to Louisiana to see Daniel’s parents and to drive around with a move in mind. We couldn’t find any homes that we loved, so we started looking at land. Long story short, this property is close to my in-laws and had been on the market for over a year. Over an acre on a lake that hadn’t been scooped up. We truly feel that God held it for us. Our vision for this land is dreamy. It will give us what we’ve wanted which is a bit of land that we could turn into our little oasis, it offers some privacy, and allows us to be close to family. 

We closed on the land two weeks ago, put our house here in TN on the market last Friday, accepted an offer on Monday, and started the details of our new home build. The boys will finish out school and then we’re heading back south in early July. It’s all happened fairly quickly but we know it’s what we’re supposed to be doing and we’re at peace with it all. It’s going to be very bittersweet to leave. We love Franklin/Nashville and our community here, but we’re excited about a new adventure and to be around family.

Is anyone else fond of coffee or red wine? I know Is anyone else fond of coffee or red wine? I know I’m not alone. I love the taste but I’m not crazy about what it does for my teeth. ☕️😁

I’m not a fan of whitening strips at home because it always makes my teeth sensitive. I was so excited to get in with @nationsdentalstudio because they offer professional teeth whitening that’s quick. I was curious to see if I’d have the same experience in the office that I have at home Thankfully, that wasn’t the case. 

I was in and out with whiter teeth within an hour. I had minimal discomfort for the first 24 hours and only needed one session. This is definitely the easiest way to get your pearly whites even brighter! Ten out of ten in my book! Not to mention, this is the most chic dental office you’ll ever see. 😍

Mention “Southern Made Blog” when booking a teeth whitening session with @nationsdentalstudio and get $50 off!

Yes, please! Count me in! This may have been the best one yet. @urbanaircoolsprings had everything set up and ready to go for us when we arrived. So much fun, pizza, cupcakes, and lots of celebrating. 

Between the trampolines, rock climbing walls, ball pits, playground, ropes course, and VR, I’d say these boys had a blast! Two birthdays to remember. Thanks for a great day, @urbanaircoolsprings!
