First Day of Christmas: Shopping with Heart at Posh West Boutique

The Messy Mommies are gearing up for the holidays! We are so excited to share some special ideas for holiday inspiration! This holiday season we will highlight local businesses and strong women in our communities who work tirelessly (and sometimes what seems effortlessly) throughout the year to bring beauty, kindness, health, and happiness to our world. These wonderful women have pursued their passions spreading cheer along the way. 

To kick off our holiday blogging and our 1st Day of Christmas, we want to highlight the inspiring Sadie West, business owner of Posh West Boutique located in Shorewood, Illinois. Posh is a special boutique offering stylish women's clothing and accessories. Just this past June, Posh went from being an online only shopping experience to this wonderful storefront location at 852 Sharp Drive in Shorewood.

Sadie is definitely a woman who has pursued her passion! Through hard work and loving dedication to her family, she has created a wonderful shopping experience within her community. Sadie is the mom of now teenage twin boys Jaden and Kale. Jaden has an immune deficiency called CVID which requires him to have monthly infusions to boost his immune system. Kale has an autism diagnosis which has a lot of underlying medical diagnoses fueling it. This family owned business allows Sadie to be home with her boys, to make sure their needs are being met by scheduling doctor/therapy/infusion appointments, etc. and to teach Jaden and Kale the skills needed to be more independent in their lives.

Like all moms, Sadie has things that pull her in many directions, but the love she has for her family is helping her thrive as a business woman in her community! And, we love her big heart and how she gives back to our community. Sadie is supporting Morningstar Mission with a food drive at Posh this weekend. You can shop with heart and help others in our community! Bring in your non perishable food items and paper products to help support Sadie and Morningstar Mission!

 After you have had your fill of Thanksgiving turkey, gear up shopping fun over the weekend! Support Small Business Saturday on November 30th at Posh West Boutique and meet Sadie! Treat yourself to a new winter accessory or fun clothing item to wear this holiday season while you're there. You can also find so many great gifts under $25 for friends and family on your holiday shopping list! Posh looks so festive and will put you in the holiday spirit!
On Sunday, December 1st we are honored to be at Posh West Boutique to share Holly's cookbook, Together: Recipes to Bring Families and Friends to the Table. Thank you, Sadie for your big heart and warm welcome! We love women who support other women! 

We love the heartwarming stories that accompany each of Holly's special recipes. Holly will share snacks and sips as well as have her cookbook available for purchase and signing. We would love to meet you all! So, head out on 
Sunday, December 1st from 11:30am-1:30pm to Posh West Boutique to meet Holly! Posh will be open Saturday, November 30th and Sunday, December 1st from 10:00 am-3:00pm.

Why I can't wait for Cat & Nat: #momtruths live on Sunday in Joliet!

We love fall and Halloween in our house and we were all in this year! We hit four packed pumpkin patches, an apple orchard, two Halloween parties, hit trunk or treat, and trick or treated on Halloween in a snow storm and again the next day in our neighborhood! October was epic! Sophia and Stella had a blast with their family and friends. I did too, but I am exhausted! 
And, now it is November and Thanksgiving and Christmas are everywhere! I absolutely love the holidays but I'm not ready yet to be all in! Parent teacher conferences are barreling down, work is hectic, and the girls are already talking about Christmas lists! I need a recharge and some serious laughter! Thank goodness Cat & Nat will be at the Rialto in Joliet on Sunday! I am so excited and cannot wait to see these inspiring and hilarious gals in person.
Picture
I love listening to the Cat & Nat #momtruths podcasts! They are authentic, spot on about family, raising kids, and spending time with your girlfriends, and put things into perspective. Cat & Nat have also built a huge #momtruths community and help me realize we are all going through similar crazy things! The highly witty Cat & Nat are reassuring and uplifting. If you haven't listened, check out their podcasts now and their super funny YouTube #momtruths videos!

Cat & Nat recently talked with another great podcast momma from St. Louis - Jill Devine of Two Kids and a Career. Check out their chat too and you will be laughing all day! We love how Jill supports other women in her podcasts and is always looking for ways to lift people up! Jill knows that with humor, hard work, and support we can all make big things happen together. Cat, Nat, and Jill were so funny on the podcast and definitely brightened our day! Subscribe to Jill's "Two Kids And A Career" podcasts, follow Jill on Instagram @jilldevinve and on Twitter @JillDevineRadio! We love Jill's big heart and humor!  

I am so excited about Cat & Nat coming to Joliet that I had to do a quick shout out to these awesome moms! ​​
You should follow Cat & Nat on Instagram and check out their Instagram Stories and videos! I love the behind the scenes videos of them getting ready for the shows! The bus videos are hilarious and props for the bus flips. You also see how down to earth they are, that they have an awesome team, and that they all love being together!

I'm so excited for the show and have to give a huge shout out to my awesome friend Colette for going with me! You are always up for an adventure and so appreciate you! We are also meeting up with our fellow Messy Mommy and amazing friend Kimmie and her sisters which will be so fun!

For all the #momtruth gals coming to the Rialto for the incredible Cat & Nat show here are a few tips!
Parking: use the parking deck on Ottawa Street, right across from the Rialto. If you park in the open lot directly across from the Rialto be sure to pay at the box - they give parking tickets!
Drinks: If you come early you can go to Harrah's Casino to gamble and for drinks! If you are looking for a cocktail and great Italian food, go to Juliet's Tavern which is just a few blocks from the Rialto. If a pint and great bar food is more your style, head over to Chicago Street Pub which is across the street and a few stores down from the Rialto. 

The Rialto is a gorgeous, iconic theater and I know you all will love seeing Cat & Nat in this cool setting! 

Cat & Nat, thanks for making us laugh and helping us realize it is all going to be ok! And, in fact, better than ok, with you gals and the #momtruths community it will all be amazing. Travel safe Can & Nat and see you soon in Joliet! 

xoxo, Meg
