Once we started to actually go through the process of buying a house for the first time, I wanted to share some of the things I learned. I’ve been taking notes on my phone and it’s funny how quickly you kind of get swept up into the process. On one hand, if you’re not buying…
While we had a grill at our old apartment, it was definitely a smaller one that wasn’t too obtrusive in our backyard. Mike’s upgrading to a nice one for our house and I’m super jazzed for it to come too. Not necessarily to grill myself (although I’m not opposed to learning), but mostly to eat. I’m…
I wanted to share some of the best sellers on here. I find it interesting to see what other people are buying and are into. Sometimes it’s exactly what I predict will fly off the shelves (so to speak) and sometimes you guys surprise me! Especially as we’re only a couple of weeks away from…
Don’t worry, it’s Saturday! I rearranged my editorial calendar so I could time up our moving announcement with the day of our move. It’s been such a whirlwind of a week and I have a feeling the next week or so is going to be just as crazy with unpacking and settling into a new…
Has it felt like I’ve been teasing this forever? Because it has for me…. Initially I had planned to keep the whole thing under wraps until it was signed, sealed, and delivered but life had other plans. I really couldn’t pretend like this wasn’t happening after a while because it had seemingly taken over my…
Life has been pretty crazy over here in the best possible way. But I swear on busy days I find myself reaching for my tried and true neutrals that I have in my closet. I know it’s boring and far from groundbreaking but walking out the door feeling good no matter what the day brings…
I’m partnering with Nordstrom on today’s post and I’m so excited to share this dress. While I’ve been sort of trying to branch away from my usual blue and white wardrobe in the summer, I keep coming back to it. I can’t help it! As I’ve been searching online, so many dresses I’ve found are far…
This is going to be a long post and I have plenty of outfit posts coming up from the trip too. If you remember, Ashley and I went to Nantucket last year for a girls’ trip. Before our bags were even in the room, she received the most devastating news that Ryan, her husband, had…
This may be my favorite Maxie Monday post she’s ever written. Big decisions aren’t something we face every day, but when we do face them it can feel daunting. Equal parts exciting and daunting (and a full range of emotions in between). Max is sharing six things to remember to do when you’re about to make…
If your goals for 2025 include reading more and having better habits, @audible audiobooks are about to be your best friend! I love listening to audiobooks, especially when they help me become a better person, wife, friend, mom, etc. January is the perfect time to dive into one and cross two of your goals off at once. I’m listening to Mel Robbins’ Let Them Theory and it’s blowing my mind– “let them” is such a simple phrase and yet the impact is POWERFUL. Right now, eligible new subscribers can sign up to get your first 3 months of #Audible for $0.99/month! #AudiblePartner #amazoninfluencer @amazoninfluencerprogram
Can we bring this kind of outfit of the day video over to this app 👀 tell me if you like it or hate it- in light of everything, trying to experiment! If you want links to what I’m wearing, leave a comment with “OUTFIT” and I’ll send it over!
Sorry for the jump scare… but go ahead and add “great at multitasking” to my resume 😆 is it habit stacking or just survival mode? Every morning, I’ve been doing a red light session with my @omniluxled face mask, while listening to an audiobook, and I spend the 10 minutes tidying up. I make the beds, put laundry away, straighten up the boys’ toys… I always feel on top of the world and like I can do anything 😆
I’ve been hesitant to add new skincare products to my daily routine because I don’t want to disrupt my healthy skin… I tested @oakessentials skincare line though and it’s now a staple in my weekly routine. I’m using these three 2-3x a week (the night before hair wash days!) and my skin is SO moisturized and hydrated!!
Moisture rich balm + Ritual Oil + Balancing Mist
(Why has no one been using this song for this trend? Literally all that I hear whenever I see another “ins and outs” trend 😆)

Over complicating things
Holding in emotions
Yes, I’m an iPad adult now ✌🏻 I have been feeling all over the place with how I stay organized. In a dream world, I’d have a good ole fashioned paper planner, but I need something digital that I can access wherever I am and set alarms and reminders and appointments in my digital calendar. Kicking the new year off with a fresh iPad in the hopes that it helps?? Kind of felt like back to school shopping with fresh school supplies (but more expensive lol)… here’s to an organized twenty twenty five!! 🥂
PS I am trying out @goodmondayspaper on @goodnotes.app and went with an 11” iPad Air!
