Christmas Home Tour

December 21, 2015January 8, 2016 - Sarah 5 Comments

For me, Christmas brings about a sense of home and family. It’s a time to cherish one another and spend time together. I love turning our home into a cozy Christmas wonderland during the holiday season to make the experience even more special. I typically end up adding a few things to my collection each year.

Peanut Butter Balls Recipe

December 17, 2015August 25, 2016 - Sarah 2 Comments

Want a healthy treat this Christmas? Well, despite natural peanut butter being the main ingredient, this is NOT it. These peanut butter balls are D-I-V-I-N-E and worth every calorie! We made them during my family cookie baking party last weekend and cannot stop eating them. They are best made with a group because rolling all thoseRead more

When you have a young family you get to decide what will become your own family traditions. Traditions that your kids will grow up knowing and remembering when they look back at their childhood.

Christmas Frame Crafting

December 2, 2015January 8, 2016 - Sarah Leave a comment

My mom has perfected making her home feel cozy and appropriately decorated for every holiday. She changes out pillows, blankets, table and mantel decor, the works. One of my favorite spots to check out each holiday is her table of old photos. She has an array of themed picture frames that host memories of pastRead more

Eat, Drink & Be Thankful for Today

November 25, 2015January 8, 2016 - Sarah 2 Comments

In a world that moves so fast it’s easy to get caught up thinking about tomorrow and planning for the future, but today I’d like to slow down and be thankful for the memories I’ve built and the moments happening right now. We’re all guilty of constantly thinking ahead – the changes we can make,Read more

Playing with Pumpkins

November 18, 2015January 8, 2016 - Sarah 4 Comments

It’s not too late to play with pumpkins this fall! Evelyn loved picking out pumpkins for the family at a local farm down the road from our home. It was one of those perfect fall days for being outside – colorful leaves, a cool breeze, but warm sun and that scent of autumn in theRead more

Went into @olliesoutlet for one birthday gift and found SO much more! 🛒✨ You never know what you’re going to find because the inventory is always changing, and the prices are always a good reason to take a peek!

Sometimes you just need to make a whole day out of it. 🤍

Olivia and I drove an hour to Milwaukee for a little one-on-one adventure before we had to be back for school pickup. We squeezed in the zoo, lunch, a Costco stock-up and lots of little moments in between. 🥹

It’s funny how the simplest days can end up being the ones you remember most.

Would you drive an hour for a little day like this with your favorite little sidekick? 🤍

We were just out and about in another town when we happened to drive past this thrift store, so of course we had to pop in and see what they had. 😂🛍️

We didn’t have much time, so this was definitely more of a quick peek than a proper thrift hunt… but now I’m thinking I NEED to go back and actually take my time in there! 

You just never know what you’re going to find. ✨

Sometimes life throws you a curveball you never saw coming.

And sometimes you don’t need to figure everything out right away. You just need to step away for a little while.

Back to nature.
Back to the quiet.
Back to the people you love.

Sometimes a little fresh air, a campfire, and a change of scenery are exactly what we need to catch our breath, reset, and find the strength to keep going. 🤎🌲

Another Ollie’s treasure hunt ✨ This time I was on the hunt for home décor, and there were SO many good finds! From mirrors and lamps to rugs, pillows and furniture, I definitely found a few things I would take home.

Which find was your favorite? 👇

Life isn’t about hoping nothing hard ever comes your way. It’s about trusting that when it does, you’ll find a way through it. 🤍

Some seasons ask more of us than others. And sometimes strength looks less like having it all together and more like taking the next step anyway.

Keep going. You’re stronger than you think.
