About me...

Hello...  I'm Carla, the owner and writer behind the curtains at life at peonies house blog.

Peonieshouse is my poshmark closet. Visit me there and have a look at my listings. ❤

I am a 29 year old stay at home mom. I have an adorable, wild son. He is my life! He has given my life purpose and lots of gray hairs for almost 5 years.

Alongside my son, I share my life with my partner, lover, hubby, father of my child.

I'm currently completing my first degree in business and accounting. & trying to decide where my education/career path will lead to next.

Peonieshouse started because I needed to stay at home with my son. Yet attempt to hustle, in order for our little family to buy a house. (Hence the name)

-A goal we hope we can accomplish very soon. & a brand that I will be expanding soon as well.

So here I am, opening the doors to our "house." Sharing life at peonies house with all of you who are willing to read my thoughts. & share yours with me in the comments.
Xoxo Carla

Last week I entered a super fun giveaway from Strut_official on instagram. It was a back to school giveaway.  As I've mentioned before, I'm currently completing my degree.

Five nights at freddy's 5th birthday party....

I know... I know... Five nights at freddy's aren't exactly the characters you'd expect a 4 or 5 year old would like. My son however is obsessed with these ugly looking characters. He has been watching their music videos and such for a couple months now. Therefore, his birthday party theme this year was obviously Five nights at freddy's. I opted to do it friendly and not scary with the "nightmare" version. For you mommas, who have kids obsessed with these characters. Here are some ideas for your theme party. We held the party at a local park. Set up tents, ice coolers, tables and chairs. Invitations... I like to be simple when it comes to invitations. I send out a custom made invitation through text messages or make an event on Facebook. (Most our family and friends are on there) When I say custom invitation, I mean custom made by me. 😁 Food... Since the characters like to eat pizza & Fred Bear Fazbear works at a pizzeria. (Or something) The ma...

Getting comfortable in my own skin...

This year I will be turning 30!!! Where and how that happened? I have no idea,,, What I do know, is that it has taken me a very long time to accept myself.  As a matter of fact, I'm currently still working on it.  Through the years I have struggled with learning to love myself.  Never completely content with my appearance.  Whether it was my teeth, face, features, body.  You name it!  In the past I have even contemplated getting surgery. What stopped me? The money of course! As well as the scary stories told by friends.  Which often times they hear from others.  Postpartum, I suffered from weight gain.  It took me years to loose the weight.  Even then, my body is not perfect.  Does that define me? Do my looks define me? Of course NOT! I know that; However that doesn't change the fact that I obsess over my weight, and constantly weigh myself. My point with all this rambling is, that it's never too late to learn to LOVE ...
