I recently started and stopped a handful of wildly popular books. I don’t know if I just wasn’t paying close enough attention or what, but I just couldn’t get into any of them! I even tried to re-start several of them. I think it’s because I had a really good run of psychological thrillers that …
I always get so excited to round up back to school items! There is something so fun about kicking off a new school year with fresh new supplies! Here are some of our favorites (many of the same favorites from last year, as well as some new ones we’ve discovered since then)! Bentgo …
I’ve been getting creative with Taco Tuesday lately. I’ve been cooking vegan dinners for Matt (and the family) and so they can be hit or miss. For the most part, we’ve been pretty successful. The outlier is Thomas. He loves meat. And he can spot fake meat from a mile away. So every Taco Tuesday …

Happy Friday! 1. Summer Updates It’s wild to think we are finishing up week 7 of summer already. We’ve been busy checking off lots of fun activities on our (ever-evolving) Summer Bucket List on the weekends! We continue to add and remove items from the list as our summer progresses and the kids frequently change …
Thomas is officially 6! It’s so crazy to think our littlest is SIX! And surprisingly, I am not sad about it at all. In fact, I LOVE this age so much right now and wish I could bottle it up forever. He is SO DANG FUNNY, extremely outgoing and is an absolute blast to be …
Last weekend I made an extra special dessert platter for Family Movie Night to celebrate my brother and his girlfriend being here for the holiday weekend! It was such a fun and delicious treat that I wanted to share it… In my large chip bowl, I added our favorite Dunkaroo Dip and then filled in …
Summer has been insanely busy for us. Wasn’t I just whining about wishing I was spending the summer at the pool with my kids? Well now we are…only it isn’t exactly as fun as I had envisioned in my head! Several nights a week we are cutting out early from work to pick up the …
