I am sure that everyone has a room in their house that they loathe, hate, despise, cry over….right? Well, I definitely have that room and it’s our master bathroom. It is horrible, awful, ugly, and a waste of space. It’s one of those rooms that “appears” lovely and grand when you quickly glance at it, […]
I decided it was time to add something else to the front door that we recently redid . I simply cut out some vinyl lettering with my beloved Cricut machine and adhered them under the wreath. Cute and friendly, right? Before: After: Hello, friends!
LOVE this time of year!!! Everything feels so cozy and warm, but the weather is getting cool and windy. I always tend to gravitate towards the warm color palette, which is why this season is perfect for me! It is so fun to decorate, but I didn’t put out too much stuff this year because […]
We love this time of year! The cool weather, wonderful fall colors, and of course, pumpkin picking time!!! Remember last year? Well, things were much more relaxed and fun this year because Ainsley is finally, well ALMOST, sleeping through the night. Last year was rough, to say the least, so we were very excited to […]
I guess when you have children, you should expect a few emergency hospital visits and a few parental heart attacks, right? Well, I got my first hospital visit this past week. Good times, good times. Let’s set the scene. It was a Friday afternoon. I had taken both kids to MOM’s group meeting in the […]
We finally got around to fixing up the kids’ bathroom. While it’s currently adorable and fun, it won’t stay like this forever because we eventually want to have a bathroom for overnight guests to use without feeling like they are 5 years old. However, our kids love it and that is the main thing. The […]

A while ago, I had mentioned that we wanted to eventually redo the outside of our house. Read about it here . Just a reminder of what our house looked like last week: Not bad, just not “us”! We hadn’t planned on doing anything just yet because of several factors, the biggest factor being money […]

As most of you know, Ethan was diagnosed with Autism over a year ago. He has been in therapy since he was 10 months old and has made HUGE progress. More than we ever imagined possible. His therapies and evaluations were all paid for by our local Easter Seals Chapter and we are currently raising […]
I have seriously seriously been on the HUNT for canned pumpkin puree since last year. Apparently, there was a major pumpkin shortage because of the heavy rains and it totally ruined pumpkin crops. GASP!!!! Last year was rough on me, without my favorite pumpkin goodies. Sure, I could have easily pureed a pumpkin myself, but […]
I CANNOT believe Ainsley turned 1 this past weekend! Happy Birthday to my sweet little girl! Are you ready for an insane amount of party pictures???? You sure? I made everything for the party, with the exception of a few things like the sandwich wraps, etc. Everything else, including the cakes, were made by me! […]
