Twice a month, we all link up with Andrea and show & tell ya something. And today, I am SUPER SUPER SUPER excited!
Y’all…I love Pinterest. Like, it’s one of my favorite things. Ever. The funny part is that several years ago when Pinterest first came out, Sheaffer was obsessed with it and kept telling me how I needed to get an account. But you see…in order to have a Pinterest account back then, you needed to have a Facebook account or a Twitter account and…wait for it…I prided myself on not participating in any social media.
I knowwwwwww!
After a summer of Sheaffer insisting, I signed up for a Facebook account just so I could access Pinterest…and from there, a social media addict was born. #iblamesheaffer #sheaffertoldmeto
Out of all the social media outlets that I participate in, Pinterest is my favorite because it’s just plain happy. And you know how I love happy :). It’s happy, it’s helpful, it’s inspiring, it’s relaxing, it’s creative, it’s insightful, it’s just delightful.
So, today, we’re sharing our favorite Pinterest pins and our love of Pinterest. Bless.
Let’s get started with the basics…
I really try and keep my Pinterest boards specific, organized and seasonal. You’ll note that I move my boards around to make it easy to find what’s in right now (so things like St. Paddy’s Day are at the top and Thanksgiving is way down at the bottom). My boards include (click on the name to go to that board) the following:
Here are some of my favorite boards right this second:
And I just started this one (what took me so long?) to help motivate us this spring and summer…
So, today is all about favorite pins, and in honor of that…I thought it was only fitting to create a Favorite Pins Board. Here you go:
So, that’s Pinterest :).

Sheaffer {Pinterest Told Me To} says
I CLEARLY remember sitting around the circular baby pool and you being on the phone with somebody at facebook trying to get an account set up. I MEAN. That is hysterical. #itoldyouto #gladyoulistened

Almost daily I wonder what I did before Pinterest?? I use it for recipes, outfits, decorating, teaching…everything! Thanks for sharing your faves.
Nicole says
You've mentioned loving the Kristin McGee app for yoga – do you have any favorite ones? I thought I would ask before I purchase 🙂 Thanks!
Narci says
I always love your pins–your boards are so great and organized!! Also, totally laughing at Sheaffer being the one that started you on FB!! Love that! 🙂

Pinterest for me is a huuuuuuuge time suck. It is a great tool, but I have to get in and get out or I'll be stuck there for hours.

Need some new workout motivation..looked at you board for fitness and found a 20 min cardio routine I can do at home with no equipment. It starts tonight!!!
Megan says
How did anyone ever get married, remodel a house, throw a party or even know how to dress before pinterest? Or know what to cook!?! Wow. How could I forget that one. Speaking of, that soup looks delciious.
Valerie Hutton says
One of my favorite people I follow on Pinterest is Cara Carroll. I am a kindergarten teacher so I love her school stuff, but I also love her recipes and ideas for the home! Love Pinterest!
Lisa says
Love me some Pinterest!!! I've finally gotten a hold on how much time I spend on it. Now I have a new addiction, BLOGS…yours being one of my favs ♥ When I first started (about 4 years ago) my husband used to tell me he thought I needed a "Support Group". "Hello, my name is Lisa, and I have a Pinterest problem." Happy Pinning!!!! I'd love for you to check out my "baby" blog. Coasttocoast2.blogspot.com

I was late to the Pinterest game too. I totally got this prompt wrong and a pin that I've pinned, oops! Oh well, it's great getting ideas from other people.
Kelsey @ The Peacock Roost says
I love Pinterest!! Your pins are some of my favorites. I love your recipes because they don't take a crazy amount of time & my husband is picky but he enjoys them so that's a major win!

What did we ever do without Pinterest?? Like, how did I plan a wedding and decorate my first baby's room without it?? I always tell my hubs that I want a wedding redo so I can use all of the cool Pinterest ideas that are out now. Haha.

Love reading your blog and hearing about you and your family! Your kids are just too adorable! The Santa Fe Soup looks delish! Definitely going to have to try that one out this week. Made your Slow Cooker Ranch Chicken & Mushrooms Over Rice last night…SO. TASTY. Going to make it a point to get your book today!

I love this!! What happened to your "Shades of Shay" posts?? I am needing some travel help with a newborn and can't seem to find them!!! Help!!
Mix and Match Mama says
They're still there! Check the sidebar and click on Fifty Two Shades of Shay in the labels section :).
giginpink says
I have a Mix and Match Mama Recipe board that I love! Funny how we choose to arrange our boards. I'm so OCD, that mine have to be arranged alphabetically! I don't know what I did before Pinterest and blogs!
Ann Marie says
I seriously want to come over and just hang in your closet! 🙂 Have a great week!!
