Vacay Highlights, What Makes Me Happy, Photo Hack
CURRENTLY INTO
Watching: My to-do list slowly shrink as I knock out a few long-overdue tasks.
Shopping: For groceries since our fridge is completely wiped out after vacation.
Eating: A lot of summer salads - anything with fresh fruit and a tangy vinaigrette!
Reading: A pile of school and sports emails I’ve been putting off.
Listening to: Caroline read me a chapter of Alice in Wonderland every night for her summer reading assignment.
Loving: The amazing week we spent with my family down in Florida—so much fun, sun, and memories!
IN CASE YOU MISSED IT
A few highlights from our family vacation at Evermore Resort with my mom, my brother’s family, and my sister’s family.
We surprised my mom with a 70th birthday celebration while we were all together. Her favorite part was the 70 note cards attached to the balloon strings, each with something we love about her.
We all belly laughed so hard playing Incohearent almost every night on vacation.
This perfect basic tee from Cozy Earth is easily one of my most worn items this summer – and it’s 30% off, plus an extra 40% with my code CE-CAROLINACHARM!
We finally hung our new dining room portraits of our kids and pets — and I am obsessed with this little corner of our home.
These affordable Mahjong Tiles are a great starter set from my fun Amazon list of everything you need to play (or host!) mahjong!
I made my Greek Chicken Bowls for dinner at mom’s house this past week and they were a hit – as always!
This pH-balanced body wash smells so good and actually works to keep odor in check better than regular soap – especially after a sweaty workout.
These fun lunchbox jokes are the best seller from my Amazon School Favorites List (which also includes our favorite snacks)!
I’ve been loving this cucumber ranch cocktail lately. It’s light, crisp, and not sweet—aka perfect for hot summer days.
If I could only pack one skincare product when I travel, it would be this French face cream: Embryolisse Lait-Crème Concentré. It’s my go-to travel hack because this one tube replaces half my skincare bag by doing the job of six products—moisturizer, primer, makeup remover, and more.
THOUGHT DROP
Here’s a little photo hack I’ve been loving: instead of just snapping a pic, take a video and then screenshot your favorite part! Not only does this give you a great photo, but you also grab awesome b-roll footage at the same time!
