We are going on our third week with our new golden retriever puppies: Tex and Cali. I thought I’d give you a general update. If dogs aren’t your thing, then feel free to come back tomorrow 🙂 I’m sharing some of my favorite puppy toys and some of my favorite ways to keep them busy while I work from home.…
Okay friends. Now that we are on the flip side of our house repairs, I figured I’d show you some before and afters of my home office renovation. If you are new around here, my husband and I bought our first house back in September. We were fairly close to getting everything unpacked and put together when Winter Storm Uri…
Hope you all had a wonderful weekend. I’m wrapping up mine today. It’s a bit of a short week for me, and I’m really looking forward to a long, four-day weekend. We are having our annual 4th of July party at our new house this year, so I’m prepping for that this week. I’ve got a tennis lesson this evening…
Happy Friday – we made it. After what feels like the longest two weeks in history, we’ve made it! Can I get an amen? I’ve had some big favorites this week, so let’s recap, shall we? Mr. Simplywed’s birthday Yesterday, we celebrated Aaron’s birthday: the big 42! And, it was a favorite of mine because he works so hard and…
Happy Thursday! I feel like a completely new woman now that our house renovations are complete. We had someone come in and do a deep clean yesterday, so I really feel like we have our house back. It’s a wonderful feeling. You don’t realize the extent that life’s stressors can take their toll on you until you really sit back…
Happy Wednesday! I’m officially writing to you from my home office again. It feels so good to be back. If you’re new around here, our house had some damages during winter storm Uri, and my home office has been without a ceiling for four months. The repairs were finally complete, so I’m no longer relegated to working out of my…
I’m back today with Part II of my travel guide to Punta de Mita, Mexico. I closed out part I with our first night at the resort, and our fabulous dinner at Mesa 1. In case you missed it, here’s a photo: As I mentioned before, I was in charge of planning the excursions. Now, Aaron and I are fairly…
The last time I popped on here was last Monday, when I shared part I of my travel guide to Punta de Mita, Mexico. And then, well, I sort of disappeared. It was just one of those weeks. Work was crazy, I’ve got these two tiny pups who need lots of attention, and my house renovations were still going on.…
I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. We are up to our eyeballs in puppies and home renovations. Nothing like doing it all at once – right? I’ll share more about our renovations once they are finished, and at the rate they are going, I’m thinking they could possibly be done later this week. For now, I want to…
Happy Friday. This feels like the longest week ever! We flew back in Monday evening from a short getaway to Mexico, which I’ll recap next week. But first: Friday Favorites. But, obviously, Mexico is a Friday Favorite for sure. We had the best time. We stayed at a beautiful resort in Punta de Mita, and we ate some delicious food…
