Happy Wednesday, friends. I am deep in the Bachelor in Paradise game (is anyone else watching?). I am a little disturbed that we get two episodes every week – until THANKSGIVING WEEK! That’s…. a lot. This year’s Paradise seems kind of cheesy, so I’m hoping it gets better, but it’s my guilty little pleasure, so you know I probably won’t…

Weekend Recap
Happy Monday! Things got busy at the end of last week, and I just didn’t get around to blogging my Friday. I’ll be better this week!!! Friday I took a wellness day on Friday, and I used it to get a facial, which was awesome. I found a aesthetician here in Houston, and I’ve been going for the last couple…
Home Renovations Complete
Happy Wednesday, ya’ll. I’ve shared bits and pieces of our home renovations that we did as a result of the freeze, and I’m here today to share the final product. If you are new around here, you can read about our new house here, and our subsequent damages during the freeze in February. And, while it was certainly not ideal…
Before and After: Home Renovation
I promised I’d share some more about our home renovation that we needed to do after the freeze. A couple of weeks ago I shared the before and after of my home office. I’m still loving the fact that I’m back in my home office after three, long months. It dawned on me that I need to do a post…
Before and After: Home Office Renovation
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…
First pool day + protecting your backyard furniture
Happy Tuesday! My week is off to a wonderful start already. Don’t you love it when you can check some things off your to-do list? I know I sure do. One of the items on my to-do list for the month of May was to get our pool ready for the summer. Because it was covered all winter, it needed…
Happy Monday + Backyard Update
I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Ours was super relaxing, which is exactly what we needed. The weather was raining on and off all weekend, which is a great excuse to stay in. We slept in late, got some errands done and went to church yesterday morning. It was fabulous. I thought it would be fun to give…
House Update: Post-Freeze
In light of yesterday’s news, Aaron and I have just been trying to cope as best as we can. This means spoiling the heck out of Sawyer, but we also have to keep up with our house renovation. I figured I would give you all an update on that. Pex Repipe When I last shared, our re-pipe was still in…
House update
If you are new around here, you can read some background on what is going on with my house here. While we have made some good progress over the last week, there is still a lot that needs to be done. Three of our bedrooms, including our master bedroom, were unaffected, so we are able to remain in our house…
New House: Dining Room Update
If you are new here, we moved into our new house last September. We are slowly furnishing the house as well go. We didn’t have a formal dining area in our previous house, so we needed to completely furnish the dining room. And today, I’m here to give you an update! The two photos above are what the dining room…
