If you’ve been following along on Instagram, you know that we have hit completion with a couple of home projects. What a relief! Raising two girls has definitely given me the patience required to endure construction commingled with a pandemic. I definitely had my days though!
Read MoreI’ve nearly just begun styling my closet. We hit completion two weeks ago and I have yet to find a permanent home for everything BUT I did cram almost everything in so getting dressed has become fun again. Jack calls it my “tree house” because I could quite literally spend hours in here. I’d like to think of it as my she-cave. Tomato-tomato, bottomline is that it has become my blissful, new retreat. I cannot wait to really utilize it for a night out!
Read MoreI think it's safe to say that the one eyesore in our house was the office. Really, I spend the most time in it and it's my domain. It didn't know what it wanted to be other than vanilla walls and a really bad paint job coupled with horrible blue carpet with stains from the kids and muddy feet. It was slightly maddening but it wasn't a priority...until now.
Read MoreSummer is in full swing and I couldn’t be happier. Summer means more outside time and more family time. No matter how much time we spend outside, everyone, myself included, needs a moment to themselves. I call it “quiet time” and I’ve trained my girls to take an hour everyday.

Read MoreGettin' real with ya folks. Today you're going to see a bunch of "before's." We're nearing the end of our master bedroom renovation so I thought I would give you an update. It's been ages since we took on a huge project. And for good reason...it's a mess and this fashionista can't stand disorder.
Read MoreIt seems like our social calendar is picking up and with it, a real brain-buster problem: what's a cool hostess gift?
We're a little tired of gifting the proverbial bottle of wine which got me thinking...what would I want for a hostess gift?
Something unique, whimsical and practical. Those are generally good traits to have in your gift-giving abilities. More importantly, something to remember you by - after all, we want that second and third invitation back to the fun couple's house.
Read MoreThe Money Pit Series is back! This round is all about my baby turned big girl. Lola finally kicked her crib to the curb and upgraded to this bright, whimsical bed that our entire family just adores.
We now gravitate to her room because of the warmth her room evokes. It's amazing what a bed does for a little girl. Lola is so proud of her room that she actually wanders upstairs when no one is noticing just to sit and read books. Something that really warms a parent's heart, I tell ya.
