Summer Katie

sweater: target   tee: shade clothing  shorts: borrowed  sandals: target  necklace: pink rust

Hello to my favorite, overly worn summer sandals. 

I wrote a very similar post this time last year about how I used to be offended when Chris called me Summer Katie and implied that I'm much happier and more fun in the summer.  But he is definitely right. 

This summer will be quite different than others though.  But I'm pretty sure summer Katie plus mom Katie is going to be a good combination.

Happy Summer break!!  

and to start off summer break one of you has the chance to win $200!  


I had the pleasure of working with Datevitation back in January and gave Chris one of their customized coupon books.   Datevitation has over 350 different options to make a perfect gift for spouses, parents or kids.  This would be a great Father's Day present too!  And you can take $10 off your first order using code: LAUREN10.  

Now for the giveaway! Enter below for your chance to win $200!

To my husband


Let's just start out by saying that it's time I give my husband some major credit.  

December was a rougher month in the Vale household and he definitely stepped it up.  I was pretty much on bed rest for four weeks and was incapable of cleaning, cooking, getting food, all of it.  And then I'm going to add the next two weeks in there too, which weren't doctor ordered but still happened due to nauseousness and tiredness.

He even told me that he had no idea how much work I did around the house, which let's just hope he doesn't forget that now that I can do things.  Let's be honest, if he does - I will remind him.

I thought I would save this gift until Valentine's Day but decided it needed to be a "thank you for everything you've done the last month and a half" gift instead.

Enter Datevitation.


This company allows you to create custom made coupon books with over 200 date ideas to choose from.  While it would be a perfect Valentine's Day gift, you could give it for any occasion.  I loved this company even more after I watched the video of the owner proposing to his girlfriend.

Being very indecisive it took me forever to choose what 5 coupons I'd make for Chris.  I may have looked through all 200 of them.  I'll tell you ones that I didn't choose, although Chris probably wishes I did:

Skydiving
A coupon for skydiving together. 

Flight Lesson
Flight lessons.  

Being the cheaper and less adventurous type, I went with some of the safer versions like, 


I even offered to play chess.  See? I really really love him.


I'm glad I could add the "within reason" to that one. 

But if you are the adventurous type, there are quite a few exciting options, as well as some more "adult" ones too.  Just don't tell me you picked them because Chris would probably be jealous I didn't. 

Today you have the chance to win one of your own coupon books to customize and give to someone you love!  Enter below:



AND I get to share with you a code to take $5 off any order, which means your coupon book would be only $15!  Just use code: lauren
