Hey, Friends! I’ve been quiet on the blog and social media lately, so I figured an update was in order! We’ve been sick for the past month which is why you haven’t heard much from me! First, I had a sinus infection, then the flu, then Little Man got sick, then Jeremy got the flu, […]
Showing Love in Desperate Times of Need… and Valentine’s Day, too!
Happy Valentine’s Day, Friends! I know everyone is sharing pictures of their significant other and saying all kids of lovey dovey mushy stuff today, but I am going to take it in another direction today and tell you about how love has looked to us lately. As you may remember from my post last week, […]
Personal Update + Reader Survey!
Hi Friends! Hope you all have had a wonderful week! I haven’t shared this on the blog yet, mainly because it’s boring and personal, but I have a bad gallbladder and am anxiously awaiting my surgery to get it removed. On top of that, my family has been down with sickness for months. Seriously, at […]
Easiest Kids Tent Ever
Hey, Friends! Did you have a good weekend? Hope so! I went on a girls trip to the lake for a couple days last week which was so nice! When I got home, I opened the door to find my hubby and kids dressed in party hats yelling, “Happy Just Because Day!” They had decorated […]
For My Grandma
Hey, Friends. I’m sorry for the sudden silence over here on the blog. Three weeks ago, I got a call that my Grandma had a stroke and was not doing well. After it became clear to me that she was not going to be recovering, I drove down to FL to see her. She passed […]
Five on Friday {10/2/15}

Weekend Update
Five random things swirling around inside my head lately! 1.) The pollen cloud has descended on NC! Everything is yellow! I was using my phone to take pictures of the kids outside and in that short time, my phone got a good pollen coating. Insane! But, pollen season also means tulip season. This is our […]
Why to Organize and Decorate
A few months ago, I was discussing my blog plans with a friend and she mentioned it would be interesting to see some of the reasons why I make the decorating/design choices that I make. It is a great thought and I’ve been percolating on it ever since and will try to incorporate those answers […]
Gratitude
I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas! I’m getting ready to pack up our Christmas decorations and get our house back to normal. Sniff! I’m especially going to miss this joy sign. Anyway… This week is very exciting for us! After nearly 5 years at his company, my husband decided to move on and […]
Heavy Hearted
I’ve been hard at work checking projects off my list and will be sharing them with you next week! But, today my heart is heavy. My heart is heavy thinking back to September 11th, 2001 and all the lives that were lost that day. People always ask if I remember where I was on that […]
