A New Name & March’s Mundane
Our faithful longtime readers would have noticed our website name change recently. Besides the name, not all that much has changed. I’m still putting blogs together when my heart desires. But, logistically the business side looks a little different these days. While Dillon and I would love to shoot family photography someday in the future…

Good Days & Gallery Walls
Wow, March is nearly gone and these last couple months have really flown by. Many of those weeks were spent ushering workers in and out of the house on electrical and plumbing projects. But between it all, we were able to enjoy our time with the girls and sneak a few other little projects in.…

Downsizing & Organizing
Sometimes I catch myself getting caught up in all the work we have to do with this house. It can feel really overwhelming. Working on the basement is a huge undertaking with so many layered components. Dillon’s been pouring hours into completing the project but there were some big plumbing and electrical hang ups that…

Cozy Play & Greenery Bouquets
We wasted no time at all throwing ourselves into another house project: rewiring our entire house. A couple of months ago, we were working on the entryway. We wanted to add sconces to the wall so we started to take a look at how and where we could connect the wiring. After popping of the…

We all actually got to enjoy a number of comfortable weeks which was so lovely, but that familiar chill in the air just feels so good. Thanksgiving is around the corner and Christmas will quickly follow. This year…

Day to Day & New House Play
Life’s been so beautifully full and busy since going from one to two. I know everyone’s experiences are different, but so far this change has been the hardest. All of our routines and rhythms have been turned upside down and our priorities have really shifted especially with how we spend our days. Playtime is paramount.…

Farm Days & Flush Mounts
Catching up on some much needed photo dumps. First up: the house. It is slowly coming along and feeling so settled. Next on the list for smaller projects: updating the lighting and our flush mounts and fixtures! We’re also excited to keep finishing the basement this fall to maybe even get Dillon working down in…

July’s End & Little Friends
These sweet summer days are so full. Sunshine and late bedtimes. Lots of ice cream. Playing outside with our littlest cousin friends. And soaking up all the outdoor activities the season has to offer us. Our house finally feels settled, so free time is a bit more ample these days. But of course, that leaves…
