The Sunday Sweet Edit | No. 27

Hi, sweet friends. This Sunday Sweet Edit our community is still reeling from the events at the Highland Park 4th of July parade. If you want to get involved in fighting for gun reform, please head to Moms Demand Action and sign up for your local chapter. If you’re local, we have a meeting Monday evening. I’ll be there and I hope to see you there, too. If you have any questions, please feel free to comment on this post or send me a DM on Instagram. Now is the time to fight, mama bears…

We live just a few miles from Highland Park, and I opened up about what it feels like when a mass shooting happens in your community. Also, I discuss the power of moms who are pissed off, well-resourced and connected.

Sober in Vegas: A Story – The Sober Mom Life

I just got home from a 3 day trip to Las Vegas. Even when I was a drinker I wasn’t a Vegas girl, so I was curious what the experience would be like to be there sober.  Few places glamorize drinking as much as Sin City, and on this trip I saw that on full display. It was an important reminder, and it made me all the more grateful for my mocktails, my early nights in bed, and my lack of shame.  If you’re preparing for your first sober vacation, whether it be to Vegas or anywhere else, check out this episode on how to prepare for your first sober vacation.  Here’s my Sober in Vegas highlight reel!  Are you looking for community in sobriety?

NORDSTROM ANNIVERSARY SALE | WHAT I BOUGHT

In case you missed it, I shared my Nordstrom Anniversary Sale haul so far! And yes, that means a few more pieces are coming and I’ll be sure to share those when they arrive. Overall, I’m impressed with this year’s sale. I like it better than last year’s selections, especially the dresses and activewear. I’ll be sharing my activewear favorites in a post tomorrow. Stay tuned!

Amazon Prime Day is just two days away! I’ll be sharing the best deals in a blog post on Tuesday and I’ll also have more deals in my Amazon storefront. Stay tuned!!
