We are in full Christmas mode at the Pendell house! Here's a fun video where my better half sat down with me to share our favorite things about Christmas - from food to music and movies.

Enjoy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e9tMwxAcl28&feature=youtu.be Links Mentioned: Mary, Did… Continue reading Christmas Favorites with Paul and Whitney

My Christmas Menu
It's Christmas week! We are staying home for Christmas, and I had so much fun planning all the yummy things we'll eat on Thursday and Friday. I won a Honeybaked Ham giveaway over on Rhoda's Instagram - so I planned two meals around the delicious spiral cut ham I'll pick up with my gift card.… Continue reading My Christmas Menu
High Five For Friday!
1// Yesterday Paul and I celebrated our 5th anniversary! We enjoyed memories of our magical Disney vacation (which was an early anniversary celebration) by looking at our pics and watching our Disney vlog. Then we headed to Texas Roadhouse for a yummy steak dinner, after which we hit up Target for a new living room area… Continue reading High Five For Friday!
5 Years
Today marks five years since I walked down the aisle and said "I do" to the man of my dreams! My favorite thing about being married is just simply being able to share life with Paul. I was single for over three years after I finished college. Those were some great times, but I wouldn't… Continue reading 5 Years
Christmas Card {2015}!
At Thanksgiving, I shared with my family that I was most thankful for the HOPE we have in Jesus Christ. It seemed only right to include this line from "O Holy Night" on our Christmas card. We have HOPE not only because Jesus was born, but because He lived a sinless life, died on the… Continue reading Christmas Card {2015}!
Red And Green Christmas Tablescape
I had so much fun putting this tablescape together for today's post! This year I really wanted to decorate my tree with lots of red, gold and burlap...but the Christmas decor I've collected over the past several years is red, turquoise and silver. Don't get me wrong, I love my tree - but it was fun… Continue reading Red And Green Christmas Tablescape

I'm a big believer that an organized life requires maintenance. Staying on top of the organization systems in my cabinets, closets and drawers keeps this clutter bug/hoarder from drowning in all my stuff! I looked back over all the organization projects from my home this year and have chosen the five that made the most difference in… Continue reading My Favorite Organizing Projects From 2015
High Five For Friday!
What a week this has been! I had a week at home in between my old job and my new job, so it was a week full of organizing, cleaning and Christmas fun. Here are a few of the highlights: 1// My new job! I'm not ready to share exactly what it is on the… Continue reading High Five For Friday!
9 Things I Learned From Working In Retail
The last twelve months of my life have been spent working in a high-end home furnishings retail job. My job wasn't high-end (I ran the customer service desk) but the clientele and merchandise was high-end. It wasn't my favorite job of all time, but I did meet some nice people and of course I enjoyed… Continue reading 9 Things I Learned From Working In Retail
$5 Goodwill Challenge: Christmas Edition
I struggle with wreaths in general, but Christmas presents an additional challenge to my wreath impairment. My front door is a lovely burgundy...but it clashes with Christmas red! Last year I went with green and gold, but that arrangement bit the dust after being exposed to the elements of winter. This year I went a totally… Continue reading $5 Goodwill Challenge: Christmas Edition
