This post has been sponsored by Burt’s Bees. All thoughts and opinions are my own. Living transitionally for the past three months with our impending move to Nashville, well, let’s just say it’s been quite the adventure. While we have not been able to control everything, we have tried to maintain aspects of our normal […]

My dearest, Tanner… This year has been a wild one and I believe that is putting it lightly. Between diving into homeschooling and then making the decision to move, living in your grandmother’s home for four months while we finalized plans and now embarking on a complete life change as we leave Phoenix and find […]

There is a scene in Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade. When Harrison Ford is standing in the Temple of the Sun and literally could not see the path in front of him. He stands at the edge of a corridor looking out into a complete abyss, staring with disbelief until he realizes that it’s […]

Mother’s Day is just around the corner and I cannot believe I will be spending it in our new home in Franklin, Tennessee! It will truly be a Mother’s Day to remember! Because I know finding something unique that she will love can be hard and I don’t know about you, but the usual flowers, […]

Last Fall my Macbook Pro died a sad death and I knew that I had to purchase another piece of tech in order to keep up with work demands while on the go and traveling when we do. I figured I would purchase another laptop, but I started to entertain the idea of the iPad […]

To say that I am thrilled to finally be sharing these is an understatement. For so long I have seen mobile presets that completely change a photo and not always for the better – too extreme of color, weird tints and more. I longed for a handful of presets to make editing my photos quicker […]

To say that I am thrilled to finally get to share about the next installment of the Documenting the Everyday series would be a massive understatement.

Every year I try and pull together fresh Spring styles for my family to wear on Easter Sunday. And with every annual tradition such as this, I am always looking to purchase wardrobe pieces that can be worn again without it feeling out of place. For example, Christmas dresses are something I want my girls […]

When I am preparing to say goodbye at the end of my days I will have my children gathered around me. Embracing them I will tell them that, through all of the years we spent together, they taught me so much more than I ever taught them. From the very first day I heard the […]

Over here I am just sitting in a huge pool of denial that we are already to the end of March. Like, how did this happen?! I felt like we had so much time, but we are on the home stretch of temporary living and will be in Tennessee before we know it! All the […]

Last weekend we were able to venture out finally after dealing with a few of the kids being under the weather as well as Jarett’s work schedule getting completely thrown off. And since the temperature here in the valley is going to start ticking up, we figured we needed to spend a day at the […]

Since making the transition to homeschooling our children, I am constantly asked by fellow parents about how we are approaching it. Whether it’s because they are curious as to how a working mom would even go about tackling it or if it’s because they have felt the same pull in wanting to have more control […]
