Today, we’re talking personal growth in honor of a recent Fools in Love Podcast episode. In the episode, Brandon and I share the “10 commandments” of personal growth. These commandments are our observations of the main ideas that every self help/personal growth guru talks about in their books, podcasts, and social media posts. Of course, […]
If you’ve had your white clothes dryer for any length of time, you likely have some rust and scrapes on the top of it. Ours had been a mess for YEARS, and it always bothered me. After accomplishing our latest DIY though, I feel so silly for letting the rust annoy me for so long. […]
Before this past Spring, considering a Christian school for Harlyn was not even on the radar. But as preschool was in its final months, we started feeling a pull to explore a Christian education beyond her preschool years.

I’ve talked about being an introvert on the blog for a long time, but today I’m putting together some thoughts on how to truly love and understand an introvert. My husband and I are total opposites. He’s tall, I’m short. He’s funny, I’m serious. He’s extroverted, I’m introverted. And that last one? That’s where it […]
I’m a Type A Woman. In case you’re unaware, it basically means I’m insane. 😉 Kind of kidding!! Type A people are generally ambitious, focused, organized, and NEED everything to be perfect.

Well, we did it. Our firstborn child is now officially in KINDERGARTEN. And somehow, we survived the first week. Let me back up for a moment so you can understand my apprehension. It’s not that I was an emotional wreck about my kid going off to school (I wasn’t). It’s that our summer has been […]
Making the most of your family vacation can seem, well, almost impossible at times. We just got back from a week at Carolina Beach, and while it was a lot of fun, it was also a lot of work! Listen, I love a good couples’ vacation, and it definitely feels way more like R&R when […]
Today, I want to share some cute, affordable, mom-friendly swimsuits with you! I’m writing this post while I’m looking out at the ocean from our beach house (rental) deck, and it just feels right. 😉 Psst! This post contains affiliate links.

It’s okay to want to be a working mom. No, really–it is! Today’s post is about being a working mom, because I am one. That does not mean that I believe all moms should or should not work. It does not mean that being a stay at home mom is worse or better than working. […]
