So, if you’re up to date on my Instagram, you know I broke my toe this week!! One of these is true:
- I was scaling up Mt. Everest and fell off a cliff. LUCKILY to toe was the only injury sustained on this treacherous trek.
- I got Goldie out of her crib and was walking to my bedroom and ran into a box.
I know it’s hard to tell which is true. You guessed….number 1!!! I have my toes taped together and the doctor said that he’s hoping the bone will start to heal. If not, I’ll have surgery in couple weeks where a pin will be placed in my toe. Please, no!
But really though, this post is coming at the perfect time because the podiatrist that I saw yesterday said that comfortable shoes that give your toes enough room is really important. These sneakers are SO COMFORTABLE and also have great arch support. Online, it says to order 1 size down which is 100% not true. Both me AND my mom got our normal size and these shoes are true to size! I got yo’ back. And yo’ feet, girl.
I rounded up the best sneakers and comfortable shoes of the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale! Take care of those tootsies, my people.

My all time favorite quote is a common one, but it always keeps me going through hard times: “there is no growth in the comfort zone and no comfort in the growth zone!”
My favorite quote of all time is from sister Hinkley- “I don’t want to drive up to the pearly gates in a shiny sports car, wearing beautifully tailored clothes, my hair expertly coiffed, and with long perfectly manicured fingernails. I want to drive up in a station wagon that has mud on the wheels from taking kids to scout camp. I want to be there with a smudge of peanut butter on my shirt from making sandwiches for a sick neighbors children. I want to be there with a little dirt under my fingernails from helping to weed someone’s garden. I want to be there with children’s sticky kisses on my cheeks and tears of a friend on my shoulders. I want the Lord to know that I was really here and I really lived.” Always such a great reminder to me of what I really want.
I’ve been wanting these addidas since you had them on your insta story and I think I’m gonna order them tonight before they sell out! Lol

Favorite quote of mine is “fake it til ya make it”. It helps me get through a lot of things even if I have to fake a smile or fake having fun. Eventually I’ve learned I do make it! But it gives me the push I need. I think you’re awesome Jenica and I’ve loved following your story from IVF to now bring a mommy and I love how genuine you are!
Hi Jenica! Favorite quote would be: “All our dreams can come true if we have the courage to pursue them” -Walt Disney
“Do everything with so much love in your heart that you would never want to do it any other way.” Always been one of my favorite quotes. Thanks for the opportunity! Hope your toe heels fast!!!
I’m not sure if this is where I leave my comment, but I hope so. My favorite quote is, “the best way to predict the future is to create it!”
One of my favorite quotes that I still live by is from Walt Disney himself: “If you can dream it, you can do it.”
“If people spit at your back, it means you’re ahead.”
I have another one that I like, but it’s a long quote.
“Marriage is more than your love for each other… In your love you see only your two selves in the world, but in marriage you are a link in the chain of the generations, which God causes to come and to pass away to his glory, and calls into his kingdom. In your love you see only the heaven of your own happiness, but in marriage you are placed at a post of responsibility towards the world and mankind. Your love is your own private possession, but marriage is more than something personal-it is a status, an office. Just as it is the crown, and not merely the will to rule, that makes the king, so it is marriage, and not merely your love for each other, that joins you together in the sight of God and man. … So love comes from you, but marriage from above, from God.” – Dietrich Bonhoeffer
There are secret opportunities hidden in every failure ????
“Don’t cry because it’s over , smile because it happened.” Dr. Suess

Love your style. I can’t decide between my favorite quotes they change so much.
1. Falling down is part of life, getting back up is living
2. The meaning of life is to find your gift, the purpose of life is to give it away
Hi Jenica!
One of my favorite quotes is…
Walk towards the sunshine and the shadows will fall behind you. 🙂
I feel like this a great one for us moms because we never know what each day brings us and no matter what we always March on forward and keep keeping on with a smile! (Or at least try to smile… maybe a fake smile sometimes haha!;)
Have a great day!!
You are the cutest! Tennis shoes are my weakness ????
“Things happen for a reason!”
“Be so busy loving your life that you have no time for hate, regret, or fear.”
“Since faith in the timing of the Lord may be tried, let us learn to say not only, ‘Thy will be done,’ but patiently also, ‘Thy timing be done.’” -Elder Neal A. Maxwell
I read that when we were struggling to get pregnant with our first, and then again after our first failed IVF attempt when trying to get pregnant with our second. And I should probably memorize it again now that we are in the process of preparing for a FET to try for our third (and fourth if possible!). Anyway, being a fellow infertility mama, timing and patience is always something I need to learn and remember!
And of course, thank you for the fun giveaway, you are just too sweet! ????
My favorite positive quote is not a quote so much as scripture. Doctrine and Covenants 18:10 “Remember the worth of souls is great in the sight of God”
Always reminds me how I am worth something to someone!
My favorite quote is “There is no one you can’t love once you’ve heard their story.” ????
One of my favorite quotes comes from my dad, he always told me to “Live with intent.” That’s always stuck with me.

A quote That’s been humming in my mind lately is “There is power in persistence”, said to me by a lady at church, ha! But it’s been a significant mantra of mine when I’m up against hard things (like… waking up on time 😉 )
Love your blog!
“All things work together for good for those who love God; to those who are called according to his purpose.”
It always sets my fears to rest!
Be kind, everyone you meet is fighting a harder battle.
“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

“Bad times make the good times better” Can’t tell you how many times I have used that during tough times
I love, LOVE those Nike bionic training shoes. I’m wishing I could take advantage of the early access sale but I don’t have a Nordstrom’s card and I’m wary to open new credit since we are building a home. Love everything that you share though!
My favorite quote too:
“Life is 1% of what happens to you and 99% of how you react to it.”
I often remind myself of this when I get upset about little things, caught up in the moment. I choose each day how to react to my situations and it’s given me a much better outlook on life in general!
“I’m have the best yet, and yet my best is yet to come. “
“Life begins at the edge of your comfort zone” -this quote is such a great reminder to me that change and taking chances can lead to beautiful things

Hi Jenica!
Thank you for always providing the best deals. All my life I never had really nice things. I had “things” but never anything luxurious. Then I started following you about a year and a half ago, and I’ve found that I can have nice things AND stay on a budget!!! The first thing I ever bought for myself that was seriously nice was a Kate Spade purse. It is TO DIE FOR, and it’s all because of you, and your beautiful insta! Thank you for spending so much time rounding up the best deals. I’m a researcher too, so I know how much effort you put into your insta and your blog!!! Thank you for all that you do!

Hey Jenica! I loveee your blog and watching your insta stories. I love how real and down to earth you are.

I find myself not even trying new things because I’m afraid of failure but this quote reminds me that I will never know what I can do until I give it a shot. Thanks so much!

My my inspirational quote comes from my dad who passed away unexpectedly a few years ago. One of the last things he said to my family was “do what makes you happy”. This saying has become my mantra as I have realized how short and precious life is. We have to live the life want!
You are just my fave!!! My favorite quote is, “Keep trying, keep trusting, keep believing, keep growing, Heaven is cheering you on. Today, tomorrow and forever.” Gets you through all the hard times like infertility!!!
One o my favorite quotes of all time is…”Better to do something imperfectly than nothing perfectly.” It means even more to me now that I am mother because being a mother means a lot of trying and failing. But I think I’d rather try and fail a little or even epically than not try at all and have a lot of “perfect” days full of no effort, no trying, no memories, and even no heartache. Life is good when we try! 🙂

“Our children are great intimidators, so let’s give them something great to intimidate”
My favorite quote is actually from my Grandma and its simple but powerful. “Make the choice once so you never have to choose again”. I find this wise in my behavior, the kind of person I want to be, beliefs, and as a mom. It helps to eliminate doubt in my life because I’ve made this positive choices and I’m sticking with them.
I love the quote “everything will be okay in the end. If it’s not okay, it’s not the end.” It’s not in our hands and I always love and need that reminder.
“Give people high fives just for getting out of bed. Being a person is hard sometimes” -kid president
We all have those days ✋????
I love “Children are great imitators, so give them something good to imitate.” It always makes me stop and think.
Two favorite quotes…

Great idea- I love quotes too! My favorite quote is:
“A reaction to a situation literally has the power to change the situation itself.”
I always think about this quote when bad things happen in the news.
The very best quote. Elder holland ????❤️
“How is it that a human being can love a child so deeply that you willingly give up a major portion of your freedom for it? How can mortal love be so strong that you voluntarily subject yourself to responsibility, vulnerability, anxiety, and heartache and just keep coming back for more of the same? What kind of mortal love can make you feel, once you have a child, that your life is never, ever your own again? Maternal love has to be divine. There is no other explanation for it”.
Love
I learned this in high school and it has never left me.
The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.

So a quote I love and repeat to myself almost daily:
The best antidote for worry is work. The best medicine for despair is service. The best cure for weariness is to help someone even more tired.
Keeps things in perspective and a great motivator!

Quoting my favorite line from the movie, The Help…”You is smart, you is kind, you is important!”
In a world that focuses so much on physical appearances, we can’t forget to tell our children how smart they are, how kind they should be and that they are important!

“So much in life depends on our attitude.” Thomas S. Monson
“Some blessings come soon, some come late, and some don’t come until heaven; but for those who embrace the gospel of Jesus Christ, they come.”
This is probably breaking the rules, but I have two quotes!
“To live is the rarest thing in the world. Most people just exist.” It helps me live in the moment more and seize opportunities that arise!
My second one is:
“Remember, for everything you have lost, you have gained something else. Without the dark, you would never see the stars.”
One of my favorite quotes I can always remember is “just do it”. When I’m literally dragging my feet all I just have to look at that swoosh to kick my butt in gear!
I love this, you are adorable and I hope that toe heals soon!
My quote is “Being happy never goes out of style”
My favorite quote is “Love is the divinest attribute of the human soul” ❤️
“Your future is as bright as your faith. ”
By Thomas S. Monson
President Hinckley: I’ve tried to recognize my wife’s individuality, her personality, her desires, her background, her ambitions. Let her fly. Yes, let her fly! Let her develop her own talents. Let her do things her way. Get out of her way, and marvel at what she does.
My favorite quote right now.
I like a lot of quotes and a lot of them were shared here! I love so many! So I’m sharing this one! It’s from Meet Joe Black. I think using your head in love is a good thing, but this quote is sooo romantic!
“I want you to get swept away, sing with rapture, dance like a dervish.
It’s a cornball thing.
Love is passion, obsession… something you can’t live without.
I say, fall head over heels.
Find someone you can love like crazy, that will love you the same way back.
How do you find them, well…
you forget your head and listen to your heart.
’cause the truth is honey,
There’s no sense in living your life without this,
To make the journey and not fall deeply in love, well… you haven’t lived a life at all.
But you have to try.
Because if you haven’t tried, you haven’t lived.”
My current favorite quote is “There are far, far better things ahead than any we leave behind. ”
C.S. Lewis
The way we talk to our children becomes their inner voice. -Peggy O’Mara
“God changes caterpillars into butterflies, sand into pearls, and coal into diamonds using time and pressure.. He’s working on you too”-R.W.
I have two quotes. The first is my own of sorts, seriously my mantra, and it has been my go to through losing my 2 babies and every trial since. “Things work out, they always have, and they always will.” My other is one my sister sent me on a card. I can’t remember who it is from, but it says “What if I fall? Oh, but my darling, what if you fly?”
Love to you always!

One of my favorite quotes is from my father-in-law “You’ll never be sorry for doing the right thing!” He is a pastor and performed our wedding and used this quote during the ceremony. I’ll never forget it!

“When it rains – look for the rainbows – when it’s dark, look for the stars.”
Hard to pick a favorite quote but this one is relevant to my life right now!
I don’t know who said it. Probably a lot of people. I’m sure others will know better than mine. But it’s ” Put the Lord first, everything else will fall into place. ” never have truer words been spoken. Even if we don’t think they are at the moment.

I want that white shirt so bad!!! I love how solid it is. I’m hoping it means no undershirt
Yes!! I hate layering and this is one of the reasons I love it 🙂
“No hay nada más poderoso que una idea cuyo momento ha llegado.” My grandmother used to tell me that all the time. “There is nothing as powerful, as an idea which time has come.” It’s almost like the one from The Alchemist, when you want something, the universe conspires with you to get it. That’s the idea. 🙂
Hi!!
This is one of my favorite quotes by Elder Holland.
“Keep loving. Keep trying. Keep trusting. Keep believing. Keep growing. Heaven is cheering you on today, tomorrow, and forever!”
My favorite quote is: “Owning your story is the bravest thing you will ever do.”
Oh and I forgot my quote!!! One of my favorite quotes is: “with 2 people anything is possible as long as one of them is Christ”
“I am a daughter of a Heavenly Father who loves me.” In a world of chaos, I have found peace in knowing me real identity. Things in life have NOT gone at all how I have planned. As the stress surges, I think about who I am and where I am going.
I have this hanging up in my house and refer to it often: “Joy always comes after sorrow” – Elder Henry B. Eyring
Hi ! My fav quote is “don’t tell me the sky’s the limit then they’re foot prints on the moon”
“By being yourself, you put something wonderful in the world that was not there before!” I Love following along with your blog, it is always a bright spot in my day to see your positive and real life posts! You are an excellent role model thank you for that!
I love that quote!! And thank you so much. That means the world and is so kind of you to say 🙂
I love your posts they always make me smile! I’m a twin Mommy too – to boy/girl twins. Mine are 13 months now so I love that we are sharing this experience at the same time – even though I do not know you personally it’s so fun to know other twin Moms and the daily Mommy things they love out – with the challenges and the complete outpouring of our hearts to the loves of our lives. My favorite quote right now that is fitting to this twin life is “The days are long but the years are short.” It’s a great reminder to cherish the moments and enjoy and savor your babies because it goes by in a blink. Being a stay at home home sometimes it feels like the day will never end before my hubby comes home. BUT – I’ve had to choke back tears lately – our twins have grown so much over night and they are already a year old – seems we just brought them home from the hospital yesterday. Hugs to you Momma friend.
You are so sweet, Brooke! I couldn’t agree more with your quote. My babies are turning into toddlers and it’s so much fun but it also breaks my heart because it’s going too fast!! So much love to you 🙂
….The Biggest Mistake you could ever Make is being too afraid to make one…
“Only grow thoughts in your brain that you wouldn’t mind putting in a vase” Love it 🙂
