(source) I’m having one of those days. One of those really bad days where you just wake up angry and it never really gets any better. I yelled at my husband about 5 minutes after waking up. And my kids began driving me crazy about 1.2 minutes after waking up. Why are they always yelling…
I’m not usually all that into Halloween. It’s an ok holiday, but it’s never really been my jam. Maybe it’s because I have to spend the weeks following explaining to my kids why they can’t have another lollipop because Mommy doesn’t want to pay to fill their cavities (also because Mommy ate all the lollipops…
It’s been a long time since I posted fashion photos. Contrary to what you may believe, I have still been getting dressed. And I do still love me some shopping and putting together outfits. But ever since we moved to a new place back in April, I realized I haven’t taken the time to snap…
I love a good handwritten note. There’s nothing like opening the mailbox and finding a letter from a friend. This, of course, is why I’m obsessed with stationery. And why I wanted so badly to expand the stationery options in my Etsy shop. I’ve started rolling out some fresh, new designs that feature watercolor details…
It’s been 15 years since I bought a bed. Yes, that’s correct. When I was 16, my parents took me to buy a queen size bed because my 6 foot frame no longer fit in a twin (the struggle is real). When I got married, I took that bed with me and my husband and…
This post is a long time in the making. Because sometimes DIY projects take me FOREVER to complete. The home we purchased earlier this year was a flip, which is great because of lot of it was new. The downside that everything was very generic to please the masses and didn’t have a whole lot…
I felt compelled this morning to write this post. Maybe because I’ve recently come across several ways that I can do something simple to help those in need. Maybe because God is pulling on my heartstrings and reminding me just how selfish and wrapped up in my own life I can be. Maybe because people…
When we first moved into our house, our small pantry had a bi-fold closet door on it. This was a problem for two reasons: The already small opening to the pantry was made even smaller when you opened the door and pushed it to one side. It was lame. I knew even before we moved in that it…

As you may have read, I recently took a road trip with our 3 kids and my husband across 5 states and the greater Midwestern area. It was an adventure, to say the least. We had some complaining and crying (and maybe a little yelling on my part…), but for the most part we also…
