This May marks 5 years since we moved into our house. That’s 5 years of making memories, 5 years of the boys chasing each other up and down the stairs, and 5 years of staring at our large blank living room wall. From the minute we moved in I had an idea of what I wanted for this little nook area. I knew we needed more seating, maybe a cute side table, and most importantly, the perfect artwork that tied the room together. Finding art that my husband and I can agree on is next to impossible so imagine my excitement when I learned about Photowall.

5 Senses DIY Valentine Gift
J and I have celebrated 13 Valentine’s Days together. That’s 13 years of trying to find new and creative ways to let J know just how much I love him. After so many years together it’s easy to get stuck in a rut or by-pass the holiday altogether. We are pretty predictable in how we celebrate; J usually gets me flowers, we go to a nice dinner (on any day but the 14th to avoid crowds) and I get him something small like a bottle of booze or underwear.

Ben’s 11th Birthday!
The boy who made me a mom turned 11 last week and we’ve spent the last several days celebrating him. We started Ben’s actual birthday with singing and a birthday donut before a 1/2 day of school. The boys’ school had a planned early out day so we headed to lunch at Fuzzy’s followed by a small family celebration that night at home.

5 Pinterest Recipes that are Actually Worth Making
One of the most common New Year’s Resolutions I hear is to stop eating out so much. Like a lot of you, I love not having to cook. Someone else preparing a meal or even cleaning up after it is the best. But it also comes with a cost. And those costs can add up quickly. Usually when I find myself in a cooking rut, it’s because I’m tired of making the same boring things over and over. Cue Pinterest to the rescue.

2020 Goals & Resolutions
I saw this meme the other day and didn’t know whether to laugh or scoff. As someone who posts my New Year’s Resolutions every year, it had me thinking, Do people really not care about my list? And the answer is, yes 🙂 Of course there are. There will always be people who couldn’t care less about resolutions-mine, yours, and even their own. But then there’s is other other group (me included) who love to hear other about people’s goals. There’s something so special about the excitement and thought that goes into resolutions not to mention, one of your resolutions just might be something I could benefit from doing as…
