I used to think getting flowers was ridiculous. In fact, when Russ and I started dating, I specifically said, “Don’t get me flowers.” I couldn’t understand because I killed everything and did not have a green thumb (which I still don’t claim to have but I’m getting better). Then, I grew up. (Ha.) And saw […]

The Most Beautiful White Shag Rug You’ve Ever Seen
Rugs USA provided me a rug for review but all opinions are 100% my own. You can read my disclosure here. When I first found out I was pregnant, I was shocked to say the least. I knew this little bundle of joy would be born during basketball season and with a husband that’s a […]
Nursery Inspiration
The house is quiet, I’m attempting to check some e-mail while really scrolling quickly through Facebook, being drawn into Paige’s story and just amazed. God is good. All the time. When the days are long and we still seem to all be adjusting to me being home because somehow I’m not getting anything done. The […]

How Not to Decorate a Space

What I’ve Been Reading…
This post is long overdue but in the little bit of free time I’ve found, I find myself dying to pick up a book or reading articles on the webs. This book a sweet friend let me borrow was truly beautiful. Sarah Mae puts on Allume and knowing that felt like I “knew” her a […]
The First Day
I was NOT emotional this morning of the first day of school until I heard “Oceans” by Hillsong. And emotional may be a little extreme. I wasn’t sobbing or even crying but I was overcome with tremendous gratitude. I was overcome with God’s absolute goodness. I already knew my IG post would read: Hearing the excitement […]
Authenticity {Busyness}
6 “Surely everyone goes around like a mere phantom; in vain they rush about, heaping up wealth without knowing whose it will finally be. Psalm 39:6 As I read The Very Busy Spider a few nights ago as the boys fell asleep, I couldn’t help but think about this post I had stirring in my head […]
It’s a….
Are you ready? I was SO surprised. And nervous to make sure it was healthy but much to my surprise, not Russ’, it’s a…. GIRL! We even asked several times to be sure! I should’ve known because I am so darn emotional (and I’m usually not at all!). I have […]
