This pumpkin bread recipe has been in our family for years and years now. Growing up, my mom would make it, and it was usually gone by the next day. For Thanksgiving and Christmas you can bet it will always be on the table. It makes a great snack, a great breakfast, a great side, […]
Hi friends! Yesterday it was 100 degrees out, today it was 47. As in Fahrenheit. That is Kansas weather for ya! I grew up in Nebraska so I’m pretty much used to it by now. I prefer the cooler weather, so bring it on I say! For me, fall starts September 1st. That’s when I […]
The temps are starting to cool down in the mornings and it makes my heart so happy. Whenever the temperature starts dropping I get the urge to bake. Yesterday I made a batch of my Soft Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookies. The girls gobbled them up, only a few left today, which probably wont survive past dinner time. […]
Hi! Are you as excited for fall as I am?! This is truly one of my favorite times of the year. As temperatures slowly drop, school starts and a new season is upon us, I find myself reflecting on the summer and at the same time, anticipating the months ahead. Fall is one of those […]
Well, here I am again. Almost two months ago I showed you all my laundry room makeover. To be honest… I didn’t love it. It didn’t really feel like me but I took the pics and posted them anyways. Over the last year I have felt this pressure to “keep up”. Instagram and the blogging […]

The smallest one, with ringlets of golden brown hair down her back, swung the bat and made contact with the ball. A big smile made way across her face as […]
Have any of you had a bad experience with boxed hair dye?! My hand is raised, probably along with yours. Back in high school I used the Revlon Frost & Glow kit to highlight my hair frequently. It had the cap and hook and that white bleach stuff you stirred up in a small plastic […]
BUILDING BLOCKS Sometimes it’s the little things that all pile together; much like wooden blocks that little hands stack. One by one they go up, higher and higher. The pile starts to tilt a little to the left so the next block is put on a tad to the right. Things are shaky but everything […]
Today is my husband, Matt and I’s 12 year anniversary. 12 years seems like a life time but also like a fleeting moment at the same time. Like any marriage, we’ve had ups and downs, highs and lows. We’ve experienced life’s greatest miracles x 4, the birth of our 4 daughters. We’ve also experienced life’s […]
