With no snow to be found, it’s been kind of nice to enjoy some extra time outside. Especially with a two year old pup who needs lots of exercise, I’m pretty grateful for these afternoons outside.
We typically take Teddy to our favorite dog park (it’s like heaven on earth, I swear!), but the beach was calling our names this week! There’s nothing cuter than seeing twenty dogs sprinting back and forth on the beach! Teddy dipped his toes and nose in the water… while other dogs did their own polar bear plunge.
There are around a million reasons why I love living in Connecticut so much… and being so close to the water is right up there as one of the top reasons.
I’ve had a few pieces of Patagonia clothing from my college rowing days and always loved them. Working from home and being a little more outdoorsy than usual, I’ve collected a few more pieces this year that I wear way too often. This quilted snap-t is one that I wear at least every other day! It’s super soft and a little less puffy than the fleece version.
While it’s not an official “resolution” I do intend on spending more time outdoors this year. I always feel stress melt away and my overall happiness go up after being outside even for a few minutes.
I love Patagonia as well! I just started collecting it about three years ago and already have several pieces. They're just so well made, it's easy to fall in love 🙂
I’ve been loving wearing my scarf collection and I’ve been getting questions about how I tie them! This is probably the way I wear it most- it’s super easy and the trick is to not be overly fussy with it. Go for it and zhuzh it up a little but don’t make it too perfect! Goal is effortless!
Fold the silk scarf across the middle to create a long triangle. Holding the two corners, twist the triangle back *towards* you a few times. While holding the corners, wrap behind your neck crossing behind you and pulling the corners back to the front of your neck. Tie once, then again to secure. I like to tuck mine into a button down!
PS I got this Hermes scarf as a souvenir while in Paris!
A wild Saturday night around here… and I wouldn’t want it any other way! A relaxing shower, clean hair, cozy bedtime routine, sourdough, laundry, a clean playroom, mahjong, (a little sweet treat… or two), needlepoint, skincare, and a good book! What could be better???
An evening routine as a mom of two with timestamps!
@mackenziechilds has done it again! Say hello to Mocha Check, the latest pattern in the MacKenzie-Childs family. I am loving how the neutral but warm tones brighten up my office space! Swipe to see how I’ve incorporated the pieces throughout my office. #MCPartner #MCMochaCheck

I love listening to audiobooks, especially when they help me become a better person, wife, friend, mom, etc. January is the perfect time to dive into one and cross two of your goals off at once.
