One of our favorite quick and easy recipes is this healthy broccoli salad. It’s perfect for summer and our three kiddos are usually asking for seconds! With a few ingredients and about 15 minutes, you have tasty part of your meal. Feel free to experiment with the measurements of the ingredients. I don’t usually measure, [...]
I picked up this piece awhile back off of Craigslist and really considered leaving it as-is {despite the scratches}, and keeping it for myself.

Ok, before I even get into today’s post, can y’all do me a HUGE favor??? {Not super huge, just please if you can}. All of a sudden I’m getting weird “non-real followers” on my Instagram page ~ like you click on the profile and it says, “Get 100′s of fans, click here, etc.” I HATE [...]

It was SO great working with Aimee and she has a whole section of [...]

After years of marriage, these “special days” can easily turn into “just another night”, so leave it up to my [...]

Hey hey from Vegas!!! Yes, we’re in Vegas and having a GREAT time! I may share more about our trip later, but today I wanted to share a before and after of a recent dining table I refinished. I pretty much followed the same exact steps I did for our office desk I just finished. [...]
It’s felt like a crazy last few days as we’ve been preparing to head off to Vegas today! I just learned that the Las Vegas Market is happening this week and wish I could attend. I, however, am tagging along with my hubby for a firefighter conference and will be spending my days catching up [...]
