As I’ve been reflecting on my wellness this season, I can’t help but notice there has been a theme. It’s a theme that I have little experience with, but have been forced to acknowledge, accept, and learn from.

I’m hoping to add some personal pieces to each space in our home this year… I try to focus on one area of our home each month to improve on. This past month I’ve been eyeing some folksy wall art from sugarboo and co for our bedroom that reminds me of the journey of two […]

Jared and I are mountain people. We have been a few times in the past and claim the mountains as our happy place. It’s the place we can go repeatedly and never tire of. For one reason or another we’ve held off on going since the kids were young. We decided this was the year […]

One of my go to kids wear brands for the past few years has been Mabo. As I’ve journeyed through the process of blogging and creating my own business. I’ve come to appreciate and acknowledge small shops. I love to support small and I’ve found that most always I’m so happy with the quality and […]

In all my years of keeping up with a family so far, I’ve learned that it’s never shy of chaos. Every time I chat with other women or families the conversation comes up… All of us are struggling to keep up! I recently listened to a great speaker talk on how there will always be […]

Sticking with our staples, I’m sharing our two favorites spots for some seasonal adventures that our family […]
