When I was in college, I was a queen at scheduling, time management, and goal setting. My weeks were ordered around my class schedule. Then, I graduated and life happened and I suddenly found myself juggling the role of soon to be wife, small business owner, and influencer. And then we got married. And moved […]

I remember the pit in my stomach, the feeling I had the night before he left — trying to savor each second, knowing that every moment that passed took us closer to saying goodbye… to what seemed like perpetual long distance. He was heading to the other side of the country to start the next […]

My mom gave me a pot of sunflowers two weeks ago. She knew my history with keeping flowers alive and told me this is a simple starter plant, easy to keep alive. Just needs full sunlight and water now and then. Sunlight. Water. Got it. I stuck it in a patch of light on my […]

A friend and I recently sat crosslegged on the floor of her living room, as her 8 month old crawled about and cooed with excitement each time we caught her eye. We talked for hours, about life, Jesus, marriage, all the good stuff. At one point in the conversation, she said something to the effect […]

There‘s been moments I’ve caught myself wishing I had her hair, or her talent, or her (fill in the blank here). Anybody else ever feel that way now and then with their incredible friends? Those thoughts never last long though, because true friendship doesn’t let them stick around. And that’s why I love that we […]

I filled my cup of coffee and tossed in a dash of cinnamon (I’ve been into that, recently, anyone else?) and walked out to the back patio. My backyard is so quiet, serene. Living in the country lets me breathe a bit deeper. The dog followed me outside as I took a seat and opened […]

Matt and I love to try new things, explore little antique shops and flea markets, get creative, and even splurge every now and then. However, we’ve really tried to be intentional about sticking to a budget and choosing to live more frugally, especially when it comes to our little house. So much of the stuff […]

Our gender-neutral nursery is complete! I have been so excited to reveal this nursery. This baby, and this room, have been a long time in the making and it still feels surreal to have baby #2 here, less than 6 months after his big brother. Getting to this moment was the fight of my life. […]

For the longest time, I never paid any attention to the ingredients in the beauty and personal care products I was using. If I’m being honest, I mostly based my decisions on the best branding, the price, or what other people were using. It wasn’t until later that I realized the truth about the beauty […]

When I started my clean living journey, one of the hardest products for me to find was clean makeup that actually worked like my old toxic faves. Most non-toxic makeup I tried didn’t give me good coverage, was too watery, would melt off, or wouldn’t last all day. So frustrating. Every time I’d try a […]

I don’t know about you but I never paid much attention to the products I was using until more recently. I’d stop by the closest drug store, grab the best deal on volumizing mascara or toss some Secret antiperspirant into my basket, and be on my way. Little did I know that the products I […]
