What An Elephant Doesn’t Forget

Published on August 17, 2023August 17, 2023 by officiallykimLeave a comment

Have you ever been to the Fort Worth zoo? Or any zoo for that matter? We have been on several occasions and it’s always amazing BUT anytime we’ve gone a teeny tiny part of me wishes we could get just a little bit closer to some of the animals in a safe way (like the time we fed a lion in Las Vegas). Well months ago I just so happen to come across a lady who told me about elephant encounters. Of course I was all ears and began plotting a way for us to have that amazing experience for my girls during summer break.

In the town of Hugo Oklahoma, there’s an unsuspecting elephant preserve called Endangered Ark Foundation. The foundation exists to service retired Asian elephants and keep them thriving as they live out the rest of their lives.

Fear The Ears: How To Do Magic Kingdom On A Whim

Published on August 10, 2023August 11, 2023 by officiallykim10 Comments

According to a vague explanation from my dad, apparently I’ve been to Disney World as a child. To back up this claim, he has a single cropped picture of me at age 2 sitting on a curb. There’s nothing remarkable about the location. There’s no Disney theme backdrop, I’m not holding anything Disney related, and there are no magical characters hanging out nearby. I don’t remember going to Disney World and it’s a running joke in our family that because there’s a lack photo proof I most certainly haven’t been 😂

Circle N Dairy Farm

This summer I have made the decision to do a weekly big activity with the girls to get their little brains thinking about all the things there are to learn about in our big ole world. I wanted a way to keep them engaged during the summer months, so participating in unique adventures has been a great bonding experience for us ladies.

Make The Most Of May: Part 2

Published on June 28, 2023June 21, 2023 by officiallykim4 Comments

I’m back again with the last half of what went down in the month of May. If you read Part 1, you know I had three different speaking occasions sprinkled throughout the month. Not only was it a busy time for me, but we also had events surrounding my little Buzzy Bee. She had an end of year field day, graduation, a ballet recital, just to name a few 😅. Even though it easily got overwhelming, I tried to make the most of each event by slowing down my mommy brain and breathing in those milestone moments.

I can’t wait to share all that’s been happening so let’s get into it!

The Handbag Guilt

Published on May 16, 2023May 16, 2023 by officiallykimLeave a comment

My husband knows me so well. He knows my favorite phrases, he knows how I like to unwind, and he knows my absolute favorite designer, Tory Burch. Unfortunately, his first encounters of my enjoyment of Tory Burch were not pleasant experiences. I’ve come a long way in how I’ve approached my occasional lux purchases and I’d like to share a learning of mine.

Smoke and Mirrors: Is A Huge Poshmark Following The Key To Success?

Published on April 18, 2023April 18, 2023 by officiallykim2 Comments

It’s been years since I’ve posted anything in the category of Poshing. What’s interesting is I didn’t completely stop, I just dabbled here and there. My life season has made Poshing almost imposhable (haha get it 😂). No but seriously, my favorite guy and kiddos have been the priority for now and even though I miss it, I still get the questions about when I’m coming back full fledge.

While I hover in the queue of my decision making process, one thing that has not stayed the same with Poshmark is my followers. Even though I haven’t posted a new item in weeks and haven’t had the time to engage the app like before, my numbers keep going up.

What is happening? From the looks of it, it would seem that a large crowd equals success…but is that really all it’s cracked up to be? I’m going to give my opinion and say why it’s a resounding no. Ok y’all years later I’m going deep. Let’s talk about it.
