Matthew and I celebrated our two year wedding anniversary last week. I’d love to tell you that we celebrated with a romantic getaway for two to an exotic island. Sorry, it’s not that glamorous. Instead, we spent our second anniversary MOVING. We did make sure to wrap up in time to have a nice dinner together […]
On this day one year ago, I married my best friend. What a rewarding year it has been! We’ve laughed. We’ve cried. (Well, I’ve cried.) But most importantly, our relationship has grown stronger with each passing day. I’m going to share more about our story this week, but in honor of this special day, I […]
The first item I bought for this baby was a pair of gray velcro sneakers. The tag read 3-6 months and they had been discarded near the checkout at a discount store. They were a mere $5.99 so it didn’t take much to convince me. When making this first baby purchase, I didn’t browse multiple […]
March 23, 2020 — I got married. On a Monday. In the middle of a worldwide pandemic. Without actually being engaged first. On a Monday afternoon, Zach and I got married by our pond with just the kids, a photographer, and an officiant. Only a handful of people actually knew it was happening beforehand.
Let me set the stage for you. Here’s the highlights of a dreadful week I experienced earlier this year. It was pre-Corona and at the time, I would never have imagined that craziness that was still to come.
It’s been one year since I moved from #wfwhitehouse and into this new place. Zach and I had a conversation recently where we both admitted to missing that big, old house. We had such dreams for that place. It’s taken this full year to really process the events of that time and some days, I […]
I’ve thought a lot about what I’d share here on the blog this week. I’ve been working to keep an editorial calendar, like a big girl writer would — a calendar where I plan out what I share and have everything ready to go in advance. That way, when life gets busy like this past […]
This year for our four year anniversary, we went to the ever-so popular Dubach, La. If you’re not from around here, you won’t understand that and if you are, you’ll say whyyyy just like everyone else. Dubach is a pretty small town just 50+ miles from Monroe and is unlikely be a place where someone […]
Today is our FOUR YEAR wedding anniversary. I can honestly say that this third year that we’re wrapping up has been one of the toughest yet. Along with some bold business moves allowing Matthew to come work with me full time, our home also flooded. That alone, has tried and tested us more than you […]
As I approach my 3 year blogging anniversary (!!), I’ve been thinking a bit about how I got started. Today, I’d like to introduce you to one of my favorite online spaces. After all, if you like reading my posts, you’ll most likely enjoy reading the posts that I like to read too. Plus, I […]
