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 not typically one to go buck wild over Amazon Prime Day BUT this year there are a few things in particular that I’ll be looking for. It’s not without reason though. You see, it all started with a mop… More on that below. Anyway, there are a few things I’ve been eyeing for a […]
We have been traveling a lot lately but just recently we took our first flight together as a family of four. Now, I’m not going to sit here and act like I’m an expert by any means BUT we did do some things that we were SO GRATEFUL WE DID so I wanted to make […]

I have a funny story to share (I’m going to paraphrase so it doesn’t take me forever). Since the fall of 2022 I’ve been attending a course on the Catholic church (yes, RCIA, for those of you that know what I’m talking about!). I wanted to learn from the Catholic Church what the Church actually […]
We’re making progress on the bathroom. We’re not as far along as we wanted to be at this point but we’re alright with that. We have a lot of LIFE happening at the same time (make sure to subscribe to receive our weekly newsletter with those deets!) and we’re just… Tired! That being said, we […]
These are currently SOLD OUT! One of my greatest joys in the past few years has been starting, learning, failing, failing some more, and on some days mastering the art of sourdough (and sharing about it with you!). Many of you have seen me make dozens of loaves just in this last year… Oh how […]

Well folks, we are finally tackling the room most in need of some serious lovin’ in our Mississippi home – the guest/kids bathroom. Adorned with wood paneling in the shower with vinyl tile above it, a vanity that has seen much better days, and a poorly patched ceiling, the time is past due. All jokes […]
You may recall that in the fall of 2021 (wow that feels like ages ago…), Stephen and I tackled the DIY remodel of our primary bathroom. While we were working on that, it made the most sense logistically to tackle our bedroom at the same time. By the grace of God, we managed to finish […]
I wrote the words I’m about to share below nearly two months ago now but never mustered up the courage or time to finish my thoughts and hit ‘publish’. As I went to edit my drafts today, I noticed this post, opened it, and read through these words. I almost deleted them and then instead […]

A couple of weeks ago a sweet friend of mine, Nikita, hosted a gathering in her home for our friends. Everyone brought a part of the meal while she made the main dish, salmon chowder. You guys… This. Salmon. Chowder. Stephen and I loved it so much we hadn’t stopped talking about it since. It […]
