It goes without saying at this point, that if there's a way to save myself from making a trip to the store with all three of my kids in tow, I will find it. Shopping from the comfort of my own home (read: in my sweats, rocking a messy top-knot, Daniel Tiger blaring in the background) has become one of my favorite pastimes. There's just something so soothing ... Read More
Autumn at the Magnolia House | A Fall Home Tour
Despite my deep love for pretty much anything and everything that Joanna Gaines does, this post actually has nothing to do with her, or her show Fixer Upper. As you can see from the photo above, my nickname for our new house does, however, have everything to do with the exceptionally large magnolia tree that sits in our front yard. According to our neighbors, it is ... Read More
Our Master Bedroom Reveal

Ella's "Big Girl" Bedroom
I have to admit... I was a little apprehensive at the idea of moving Ella into a toddler bed. Girlfriend has a bit of a wild streak, and life was good with her behind bars, but with her 2nd birthday approaching at the end of April, and a new little brother who would soon be needing a crib, it just seemed like the timing was right. I had decided, months in advance, that I ... Read More

Holiday Home Tour
Nothing makes me happier than when our house is decorated for the holidays. "Kozy" nights spent watching Christmas movies next to a brightly lit tree are pretty much my favorite thing ever.
