Blog Nineteen: The Power of Good Friends
Do you remember your first childhood best friend? I do. Her name was Maggie. (If you’re reading this, hey, hope you’re doing well!) We’d drive around on the golf cart at her house and we’d sneak into her sister’s room to try on her clothes and use her makeup and curling iron to get ready.…

Blog Eighteen: It’s not just a portable fish house.
I found this post in my drafts. It’s currently not even close to being ice fishing time. It’s sunny and my view looks a little different, but as I reread this message, I figured, I better share it anyway. Enjoy a message from the drafts that I forgot to share. I hope it brings you…

Blog Fifteen: It’s Good To Be Home
It was April 15th when we drove over to our land and met our builder for the first time. I was nervous because I couldn’t even believe we were about to meet the guy who was about to build our home. I wasn’t prepared whatsoever.. I didn’t have a jacket on and I’m almost certain…

Blog Ten: A lot Can Happen in Five Years
August 2nd is a day that I don’t often think much of… It quickly approaches and then once it’s here, it hits me. It shouldn’t surprise me, obviously the second comes after the first, so I don’t get why I’m so shocked every time it rolls around. Five years ago, in the early morning of…

Blog Nine: It’s Dirt Season
It’s dirt season, which means my husband works long hours and our conversations happen at 5am over a cup of coffee before he runs out the door. Dirt season is a grind. The alarm goes off right after you shut your eyes it seems, but you have to make hay while the sun shines, right?…

I love trying different products-hair, makeup, skincare. The list goes on. One of my most recent finds that I’ve been LOVING is Pure Haven. I saw a cleaning product from this brand on an Instagram story one day so I decided to go on the website and take a look. I’ve been trying to use…

Blog Six: Do You Practice Silence and Solitude?
Let’s be real. I don’t as much as I should. I don’t do well in the quiet. My mind is always going a million miles a minute and even when I’m sitting in a chair in a room with no one around I’m talking to myself in my head or thinking about what I need…

Blog Five: Ziploc Bag Notes
I love to cook and bake, shocker right? From homemade mac and cheese to rich chocolate cakes topped with chocolate buttercream, I love to do it all. BUT my favorite thing to make is my husband’s sandwiches for lunch during the working season. My hubby works long hours in the summertime. It’s weird because his…

Blog Four: My Student Told Me That I Stink
Like seriously. I had a student come up to me and say “You stink, don’t you wear deodorant?” Teaching high school is weird sometimes. Kids say the craziest things to you, you overhear the weirdest phrases in the hallway, but yet I just LOVE IT. Not all of you may know this, but I started…
