  • This Stay-at-home mom is looking to go back to work!

    Summer is halfway over and it’s just crazy! With my kids starting 1st & 4th grade, I’m officially lost. With my daughter in kindergarten last year, I felt a bit like I was entering a mid-life crisis (even if I’m not yet mid-life!). I’m not needed 24/7 anymore! The day to day gets boring quickly–you…

  • Washable rugs…

    Washable rugs…

    I don’t know about your house, but in our house, we go through rugs like crazy! Between the kids, our dog & bird, we regularly purchase area rugs, runners, doormats, etc. For the living room, it’s about 3 a year. And as our dog gets older, I hate that we’re going through them so fast–not…

  • It’s ok to not always be insta-worthy…

    Lately, I’ve been quite frustrated with Instagram. I follow a lot of home decor/renovation accounts & with their new suggested content, it’s all I’m seeing all the time. But, I have a big problem with that. If you go by what you see on Instagram alone, everyone has these grand homes that are always clean…

  • i stopped wearing my apple watch…

    I’ve been wearing my Apple Watch every day for the last 3+ years and this week, I took it off. When I first got it, I thought it was great–I’m notoriously known for leaving my phone everywhere & hard to get a hold of. So, the watch was the perfect solution. People could get in…

  • How to be content with what you have…

    This is something I struggle with on a daily basis. But, it’s complicated. I love my family completely–I wouldn’t change a thing about them. What I’m talking about is material possessions. I feel like with so much social media, all we see are things we should have, want or strive for. We should aim for…

  • Sooooo ready for summer…

    Sooooo ready for summer…

    Our whole house–seriously, summer can’t come soon enough!! My son is ready for school to be over & getting him up in the mornings is getting to be more of a chore. My daughter is eagerly waiting for the beach. I’m just ready for a break from the daily grind. We planted our flowers weeks…

  • Mother/Son Night…

    Mother/Son Night…

    So, Dex & I went to our first Mother/Son night tonight through his school. My goodness, it was crazy!! I seriously felt like we were at a rave for kids. There was laser robot dancers, a crazy strobe light dance floor with a dj…laser tag, a Mario Party truck, trucks & k9 dog attacks. All…

  • Easy fencing!

    Easy fencing!

    September was super busy! With all of us still getting used to Dex being in school, we’ve been a bit sluggish. But, we’re also still trying to have as much fun while the weather is nice and with the weather changing, that means I’m racing to get all the home projects that I had planned…

  • What’s a “perfect mom”?

    Let me be clear, I am in no way a perfect mom. I had someone make that comment to me the other day and it has bothered me since. I’m not sure exactly what a perfect mom even is. I love my kids, but they drive me nuts. I love spending time with them, but…
