First of all, there is an amazing giveaway opportunity for someone to win a beautiful, wooden Jord watch in today’s post! I am wearing the Ebony & Sable watch from the Cassia collection. It was fun to swap my Apple watch for something a little fancier for the weekend!

Thankfully, I run around with kids most of the day and their expectations are pretty low in that category-- a rousing game of dodgeball and they are more than impressed.
