Happy Sunday, friends!
What? What? What am I doing on here?
Well, one of the comments I heard quite a bit last year was “oh gosh, I missed ____”. I totally get it. YOU ARE BUSY PEOPLE and you might not be able to catch every blog post every day. So this year, I’m going to *try* and do a little SUNDAY RECAP…

These posts will be short, sweet and just a quick line up of that previous week’s posts…PLUS, when I can, a little extra throwback content too that also pertains to topics we discussed that week.
I hope this helps you get caught up in blog world 🙂 .
If it helps, I’ll keep doing it. If it doesn’t, I’ll quit. Ha!
Don’t forget, the BEST way to keep up with each day’s posts is to SUBSCRIBE TO MY DAILY EMAIL! I send it out each day so you won’t miss a one.
Okay, here we go…

No post! The Shull family were busy bees flying home from Poland 🙂 .

We kicked off not just our week but our YEAR…

…celebrating ASHBY’S {11TH ANNIVERSARY} GOTCHA DAY!
A very, very special post in deed.

On this day, I discussed my winter goal of…

…HIBERNATING! This was this week’s Wellness Wednesday post.
I also shared…

…PART ONE from our winter trip to GERMANY, AUSTRIA AND POLAND!

The travel posts continued on this day with…

…our absolutely spectacular day in SALZBURG!
I also shared THE TOP TENS!

In this post, I shared all of your favorite TOP TEN posts and products from last year. It’s a really fun and eclectic mix!

And we wrapped up the week with…

…38 COZY WINTER SOUPS (all super delish and oh so easy!) and…

…a super sweet mix of FRIDAY FAVES!

Here are a few extra pieces of bonus content based on this lineup of blog posts…

Perhaps THE most popular soup on my blog is my WHITE CHICKEN CHILI!

My little globetrotters pack their own carry on bags. Take a peek inside IN THIS POST HERE!

And since it’s winter, make sure you check out…

Happy Sunday! xx

I was thinking of you this morning as I was coming out of church. I saw a woman wearing a shirt that said “Take me to Nantucket.” Thank you for your wonderful posts.
