Today my daughter and I made an apple pie from a very simple recipe we found online; we figured you cannot go wrong with Mrs. Paula Dean, right?! Many of you asked for the recipe, so HERE it is! Enjoy! Hope you all had a wonderful Sunday! And as always, thanks for stopping by! <3 […]
My husband and I recently celebrated our 10th wedding anniversary by taking a trip to Italy, and while things are still fresh in my mind I thought I would put together a little guide for all of the things we found useful while there, as well as include the things we didn’t really need! To […]
Hello, friends! As I have been sharing over the past week, we finally decided to do something about our catch-all room; the one that you first saw when you entered our house, and the one I tried turning our guests’ eyes away from upon entering. So, I drew up some plans and we got to […]

Last week, my family and I went to the Oregon Coast and it was truly one of those family vacations we will never forget. There were so many elements that just worked out well, so I thought I would share them with you today in the event you may be planning a trip to the […]
Two summers ago we decided to rebuild our back deck, and I have slowly been adding decor to it here and there ever since. I knew I wanted some sort of hanging planters out there, but wasn’t finding the right ones, or, they were just too expensive. So, I decided to make my own, and […]

Be gone! We initially took out […]
