400 Miles to Magnolia

Hey everyone! I just CANNOT get it together and be consistent on here! It has been a few weeks since I last posted. I’m finally now starting to feel like we’re getting settled into the new house. It has been difficult to get into any sort of routine the last few weeks with the move. Half of our things were still in boxes and half my things are at my parents’ for those few days between move out of our old house and move into this house. It has been so fun decorating this new house and making it our home. I had a few big wedding invitation orders that happened to pile up right around the time we moved, so I had a hard time doing anything else besides that and unpacking.

We did make time for a quick trip to Waco though. Last weekend, the girls took an overnight trip for my mom and aunt’s birthday! It was so nice to just get out of town and forget my list of “to-dos” for a little bit. I had been to Magnolia before but I didn’t get to fully enjoy it. Without knowing, we went on the weekend of a fall festival while I was pregnant with Mila. I loved it because there were so many vendors and fun things to do, but Kalep like a typical man was over the heat and all the people. Don’t take your husbands! 😉 lol This time around the heat was definitely still there (& probably worse), but we still enjoyed ourselves. I don’t think this time of year is the best time to go especially with a toddler. I’d much rather go in the fall when the temperature drops a little. We also did a fun tour on our own of the Fixer Upper houses. You can find a Fixer Upper map online and follow along. We also tried to eat at Magnolia Table…3 hour wait. Next time, I think we’ll definitely wait and go on a random weekday and in the fall. I’m obsessed with anything Magnolia and Joanna Gaines, so I still loved it!
