My hope is that this space serves YOU and helps to make your life feel a bit more elevated and a lot more joyful. I will be sharing simple recipes, affordable finds (and what to do with them), tips and tricks, our home (wherever the Air Force and life takes us), and a lot of joyful life in between.
hey there!

I’m going to start off this post by unapologetically admitting that our backyard isn’t anything to write home about in terms of looks. It has, however, provided thousands of hours of entertainment for our girls, a good bit of produce in our garden despite its lack of sunlight, an ample amount of space for our […]
About nine months ago if you had told me that I would be writing this Merry Christmas post to you with a baby soundly sleeping on my chest I would’ve been quite shocked. Yet here we are! Baby Jackson John (YES, OUR GIRLS HAVE A BROTHER!!!!) made his way into the world on December 11. […]

Of all the rooms in our Mississippi home, the girl’s/guest bathroom needed the most love. Ironically, it was the only bathroom we used the entire first year we lived in this house before we completed the primary bathroom remodel because it made the most sense for us logistically.

Over the summer we found out that we are getting stationed at Langley AFB, our first pick for where we were desiring for the Air Force to send us next.

Her biggest frustration with the space was that the entire thing was all “paper bag” brown – the walls, cabinets, counters, backsplash. All of it. The area was in dire need of some contrast. […]

As the temperatures are starting to drop (PRAISSSSSSSE THE LORD!) here in Mississippi, I have been starting to reach for fall clothes. I quickly realized though as I was stuffing myself like a sausage into non-maternity casings pieces that I was hoping I’d still be able to use for a while, that just wasn’t going […]
I’ve been itching (and praying) for the time when I could share write this post and here we are. If you’ve been keeping up with my (almost) weekly letters or the little blurbs I’ve shared on my Instagram, you know we’ve had a lot going on in our family with my brother. If you have […]
When we moved into the Mississippi house almost three years ago (TIME FLIES!!!), all of the blinds on the front windows of the house were white wooden blinds and on the back of the house they were brown blinds. We decided to keep the ones in the front because they’re decent quality and blinds can […]

Ellie and I are celebrating another birthday together in just a couple of days. She was born on my birthday three years ago! I shared her birth story here. Thank you Jesus for another year of life! We are so grateful. I started putting a little gift list together for her on my phone (you […]
