Happy Monday, friends and welcome back to a new week! Heck, welcome back to a NEW YEAR!! I hope you had a fun and relaxing holiday weekend! I’ve been mostly unplugged and soaking up all the extra family time, and loving every second of it.
Today I’m continuing our look back at favorite posts and products of the last year, and it’s all about Home and Travel! Last year was big for our family, with an unexpected move and the return of travel!

BEST OF 2022 HOME POSTS //
As for the top posts, here are the most popular for Home & Decor of 2022… no question our move was one of the biggest changes to our year! Moving wasn’t even on our radar, but life had different plans for us, and I’m beyond grateful for the fresh start this new home and school brought for our precious Little Miss.
We absolutely loved our home on Rosemont Drive… after all, we poured our hearts and eight years into making it ‘Us.’ There wasn’t a single square inch we didn’t touch, and I couldn’t have been happier or prouder of this beloved home. Fortunately, the new owners love color and pattern as much as we do, and are just as thrilled to call it home now.

This post, lady! Luv when u rerun things I need to consider. I lost count of the great things you have found to make (my) life better. And awesome places I need to revisit! : ))
Here’s to all things good in 2023! xo.
So glad you found it helpful, Sandy! Happy New Year!
Here for all the travel and fashion! It would be so helpful on the travel posts if you would give more info on how you book these trips….such as do you do all the planning or do you use a travel agent, what websites do you book through for airlines, hotels, etc., any special tips and tricks you use. Happy New Year!
Thanks for the feedback, Donna! For the most part, our travel is pretty much just me spending hours upon hours on the internet and instagram! I’ll start including those details in my Trip Reports!
Probably the most helpful tip you’ve ever given us were the Bose sleep buds. They’re pricy but worth it. In younger years, my husband snored like a construction grade chain saw. He’s quieted down since then but now complains about me snoring. Moi?
The first go-around, we had issues with the batteries. But since Bose re-issued the sleep buds, they’ve worked well. Thanks for saving me from getting poked all night long to ‘roll over’.
haha — it must be the dog! 😉 I still sleep with my old Bose sleep buds…they no longer connect to an app, but block out enough that I don’t hear Mr. SP snoring (or other noises i.e. dogs!). I’m tempted to get the update pair and start connecting to the white noise again! I’m thrilled to hear they worked out for you!
Ok, the fixer here, again. Have you ever heard of mouth taping? From a dentist. It forces you to breathe thru your nose while asleep instead of snoring. Friends swear by this for a better nights sleep. I use the blue 3M tape used for painting, b’cuz it’s gentle to remove. But there is also surgical tape and bandage tape in the first aid aisle. Only a small piece is needed.
Report back how it works for you. Hope this helps, SPs and SP fans!
That’s intriguing!!! Thanks for the tip, Sandy! xo. C
