This post may contain affiliate links. Around this time last year, I participated in a challenge where we had to transform a room for $500 within 5 weeks time doing at least 5 DIYs. I chose to tackle the laundry room/mudroom and at the time I really liked it… until I didn’t. Now there is […]

*This post may contain affiliate links. I am really excited about everything outdoors this year! We have some super big plans and I am looking forward to enjoying these spaces. The first thing we tackled this year is some minor landscaping for Josephine. I really love how cute she is looking. I wonder what changes […]

I recently sat and reflected on just how important front doors are to our homes. They are typically the first things our guests see when they arrive for a visit. Our front doors are usually our first layer of defense. They also give our neighbors and people passing by a good idea of what the […]

I had so much fun creating the kiddos’ meals this week! I feel like they were all pretty diverse, mainly healthy, and colorful! Also, the boys seemed to really enjoy them! They especially enjoyed the samosas that their granny made them on Monday! Check out the charcuterie boards that I made the kids this week. […]

I feel like I have been waiting on this fall garden forever!!!! I am so excited to garden in cooler temperatures and with less bugs to contend with! That bug part is seriously like the most important! No but really, I am super excited to get this garden started and to finally have a solid […]

If you follow me over on Instagram, then you know that this particular project tormented me for awhile. First, I had a hard time with the math and then I struggled to make a decision between using mats or not to showcase the art work. I have temporarily (maybe not so temporarily) decided to leave […]

I have been waiting to redo this bathroom since we moved in. Well, I actually thought I did redo it and that attempt seriously fell flat! I mean, I had very good intentions, but it just did not work out. A total bathroom renovation is not in our budget right now, nor do I think it is […]
