Sprinkles is officially ONE! Well, I mean, I actually have no idea how old she is. In fact, when we re-homed her I thought she was several years old and didn’t know until Matt picked “Sally” up from her previous family that she was actually still a BABY… Anyway, Sprinkles secretly became part of our …
It’s been a crazy busy week around here with Teacher Appreciation Week for Thomas’s school, Kindergarten Beginners Day, dance classes, golf practice, dentist appointments for the entire family (all at the same time, which is my new favorite mom scheduling hack ever), Leadership Day for Caroline, a farewell dinner with friends moving away, birthday party …
Over the past few years I think I’ve read a total of maybe 10 books. I enjoy reading but by the time I crash into bed, I either want to fall asleep watching TV or I’m blogging. However, it wasn’t until 2021 that I started downloading and listening to audiobooks! I’ve paid for a few …
I was looking for this delicious appetizer recipe on my blog earlier this week and realized it was buried in one of my party posts! This Boursin Cheese recipe is insanely delicious and definitely deserves it’s own post so I’m sharing it again so you can now find it on my Appetizers page! Also, Boursin …
Sharing a few new (and some longtime) favorite items from Amazon this month… Refills Kicking off the list with our favorite items we refilled this month: Thomas Loafers: We have purchased this pair in every size over the past few years for Thomas.

By popular request, I’ve rounded up a list of the best date night restaurants in Charlotte, NC! Over the past few years, Matt and I have started preferring seats at restaurant bars over quieter tables tucked in the back of a restaurant for date nights. We love the vibe and the buzz (pun!) of the …
Spring is an amazing time to host a supper club get together! I usually prefer a fall month, but this year I wanted to change things up and host during the springtime. In hindsight, I wish I would have picked May only because I knew I wanted to host our dinner outside and everything was …
Happy Friday! 1. Fully Vaccinated Earlier this month I was extremely grateful to receive my second dose of the Pfizer vaccine! Matt received his too and we are over the moon to be fully vaccinated. I was pretty nervous about the second shot after hearing from several friends that they had flu-like symptoms for about …
If you liked my Sheet Pan Chicken Fajitas, you’re going to love these Sheet Pan Steak Fajitas for your next taco night. Our kids really love switching up our taco meat fillings from week to week and steak is one of their very favorites. For best flavor, I highly recommend marinating your steak overnight! *pin …
Sharing another one of our family favorite salads — cobb salad with chicken (air fried chicken, specifically)! You can technically grill the chicken if you prefer, but the air fryer gives the chicken the perfect crispiness! And our entire family loves this salad — kids included (Caroline picks all of the onion & tomatoes out …
Happy Friday! 1. First 4-Day School Week Caroline returned to in-person school 4 days this week! As happy and grateful as I am to feel our lives slowly returning to normal, I have definitely felt a tinge of sadness being home without her by my side all week. And I miss my random whiteboard messages …
