Last week The Hubby and I took a (kidless!) trip to San Diego to help celebrate two of our best friends uniting as one. We were there less than three days but it was such a beautiful, fun and memorable trip and I can’t help but share these (non-professional phone) pictures, mostly displaying the gorgeousness […]
For fall I wanted a wreath that I could use for a few months, and with my infatuation with burlap and twine I knew this was the wreath for me once I came across this picture. I could probably use this into Christmas as well! And THAT is why I love burlap so much. Because […]
Hello! It’s another what they wore Wednesday up on the blog today where I share with you what the kiddos wore this week, where I found their clothing, and what discounts may be currently available at the stores I shop. Who doesn’t love a good sale? Sweater-Old Navy Yellow v-neck- Old Navy […]
I came across this beautiful mantle on Pinterest and knew this is what I wanted my new mantle to resemble for this fall season. It worked for October and November and I already had some of the items on-hand, so I set out to recreate something similar, but on a budget. Below are […]
Something pretty cool happened this week. Monday was the birthday of Grandma DePell. We lost this special lady less than a year ago, maybe you remember this post. So, Monday started off a bit somber.

I love to dress the kids in clothing that is versatile, fashionable and affordable! But, that isn’t always easy. So, I keep my eye out for deals, sales and coupons. And I try to buy pieces that can be worn in multiple ways. Top- Nordstrom Rack- I love this top! Lacy in the front, […]
I bought a huge can of pumpkin that needed to be used up, and per The Hubby’s request I made these pumpkin goods for an early morning hunting trip breakfast and for guests we were having stay the night. These were simple to make and the streusel topping gave it a little extra something special […]
The moment I found out we were having a girl, I broke out in tears. Happy tears. Very happy tears. Not only because I knew I always wanted to have a girl at some point, but because let’s be honest, there are just so many cute girl’s clothes out there that are hard to resist. […]
With two cans of pumpkin in my pantry and a husband begging for a pumpkin treat, I scoured Pinterest before coming across this recipe and knew I had hit the jackpot. These “Starbucks knockoff” pumpkin scones are even better than the “real” thing and were approved by my whole family. A few times. 😉 Below […]
