Happy Saturday! Sharing a few things going on around here today! Pics from a recent trip, lots of organizing, a book I’m loving and more. Feels good to be home! 🙂
Sharing a few pics from my quick weekend in Zion National Park! I grew up in southern Utah about an hour away from Zion National Park and we spent lots of time here. If you’ve never been before definitely put it on your bucket list! It’s absolutely beautiful (especially in the spring when the weather isn’t too hot!).
Met my childhood/highschool besties for our annual girls trip! I could only fit in a weekend but something is always better than nothing and it was so fun spending time with these girls again! Love them.
Room with a view! Aren’t the mountains stunning!?
Zion National Park is full of so many beautiful hikes! They remind me of my childhood. 🙂
Aside from hiking and eating we also spent some time at the spa.. so heavenly! I loved my facial and that chair was so comfortable I never wanted to leave it!
We stayed up chatting and laughing until we couldn’t keep our eyes open one more minute! Nothing like time with close friends. I’m so grateful I was able to get away to see them all again!
I also got to sneak in a day with my cute parents. Fun fact.. they met and fell in love at Zion National Park! They both worked summers there. Knowing that has always made me love the park even more.
When I got to my parents my mom had this on my bed. Stocked for another few months.. thanks mom! My beloved Cherry Ice Chapstick is always waiting on a pillow for me when I come home. 🙂
After almost two weeks of traveling between college tours and my girls trip I came home feeling ready to scrub my house from top to bottom! So many spaces feel cluttered around here because we have just been busy. Ellie’s desk in her bedroom has been driving me crazy for months but she has been too busy to clean it so I just took charge a few days ago!
She has had these new brushes for months and we were waiting to open them when we got her vanity area cleaned.. they are my girls’ favorites for makeup!
I dumped everything from her desktop and drawers on her floor on a towel and started sorting! Then I organized all of her makeup in this fun organizer.
A little spot for everything! She is so excited about this.

We went from this..

AFTER
To this! Clean desktop, organized makeup, clean mirror. YEA.
While I made major progress, her vanity makeover wasn’t quite complete! Today I tackled her jewelry. She has this cute jewelry box that she will take to her college apartment in the fall.
El especially loves earrings and this has been a great spot for them with so many drawers to hold them all.
But because she has been busy jewelry was popping up everywhere.. in bathroom drawers and on nightstands. I consolidated it all in this drawer and then ordered this set of jewelry trays because I want her to have a place to keep jewelry when she’s home.
Such a fun project!
Her desk is small so I could only fit 4 trays but it was just enough to hold everything. I was also able to fit a few longer eyeshadow palettes on the side. Thinking I’ll use those other 4 trays in my bathroom and do the same! I love this set up.
Now this will be such a great spot for her to get ready!
Angels are happy and so is El and so am I. 🙂

Felt so good to get that done! Addison saw it and now wants me to do the same in her room with her desk so that’s my thank you.. more work! Ha! Good thing it’s fun work I love. Bring it on. 😉
We did a little favorite things party on my girls trip and each brought something we love to share with everyone. I bought each of them my favorite make-up bag so we can all travel in style. 😉 My friend Angie brought is each this Heart Talk book and I’m LOVING IT! Have you read it!?
It’s full of little bits of wisdom and motivation and advice. You can read it all at once or a page a day.
I’m half way through it and it’s just so inspiring! I love that I feel like I can highlight and mark it up as I read it too. She wrote it in a way that it’s easy to add your own thoughts/notes.
I think it makes such a thoughtful gift too and plan on giving it to friends. It would be perfect for Mother’s Day!
I ordered this cute faux olive tree I share a few weeks ago and it arrived and I’m in love! It’s so beautiful and perfect in the corner of my family room! I wanted to take a pic to share but ran out of time so coming soon. I’m looking for a larger pot to put it in at the moment and will share it soon but 10/10 if you are debating it!
I’ve been working on setting up a place for all of my Amazon favorites to live (something I’ve wanted to do for years!) and am off to a good start! You can see my main storefront below. It includes folders I’m slowly setting up of all of the items we use/love for decor and organization along with fashion and sale items I’m loving. I hope this is helpful! If you are trying to remember the sheets we love or any items I’ve shared in the past you should be able to find it there as soon as I’m finished. I’ll also continue adding our favorites and fun items that are on sale!

That wraps up this week’s Saturday 6. Wishing you all a beautiful day!
