Spring has sprung, and with all the cute and colorful things catching my eye as I’m out and about, I couldn’t help but spruce up the house a bit! This was my first time decorating for spring and I thought this “SPRING” stamped burlap and felt bunting ($7 from Target) was a perfect first purchase!
Easter is less than two weeks away, and I’m getting so excited! We picked out Kate’s Easter basket a couple of weeks ago and she’s been carrying it around the house ever since. I love how much she gets into the traditions of the holidays! Last year Kate had fun with an Easter egg hunt
The weather in Wisconsin has been unseasonably warm lately which feels lovely, but I’m not quite ready for it. I have nothing to wear! How is this even possible? I have a closet full of clothes! (Well…two closets, actually.) And a dresser full of clothes! (Well…two dressers, actually.) Yet I open drawers and doors, and
You can’t put anything past my daughter. You really can’t. Just when you think she’s in some Sesame Street-induced haze where nothing else matters to her besides her crayons, her accessories, and her alphabet, she’ll do something surprising just to prove that she sees it all.

Who doesn’t love food on a stick? Um, I’m pretty sure no one. You know why? Because food on a stick is fun! It makes you feel like a kid again! These Mediterranean Antipasto Skewers that I created for my Oscar party are my grown-up equivalent to corn dogs at the county fair. Could these
Before we dive into my overall Whole Living Challenge overview (including how much weight I lost!), I have to share my food log from Week 4. To recap, the following are off-limits throughout the entire 28 day detox plan: processed foods and beverages, added sugar, dairy, caffeine, and alcohol. During Week 4 you can pretty much
My favorite purchase this winter are these fur-trimmed booties. They’re faux, yo, and so much fun to slip on and wear! Shirt: Old Navy Vest: Gap Jeans: Gap Outlet Boots: BareTraps
I love doing a candy buffet for my annual Oscar Party, loaded with popular movie theatre candy. I also love doing a “sweets tower” of delicious finger food treats. This year I married the two and created chocolate-covered strawberries coated in Pop Rocks candy! Remember Pop Rocks?! I loved them back in the day. They’re
