We started 2019 in the best way possible, by going straight to our happy place, the beach. A place of solitude, in it's purest most pristine form, and a bit secluded this time of year. After coming off the past few years, where New Years was a place of uncertainty and a prayer for life's difficulties to subside, this year was different. 2018 overall, was good to us. It was a representation of ...
KEEPING A CLEAN HOME DURING THE HOLIDAYS
This post is sponsored by Bona but the content and opinions expressed here are my own. The holidays can bring a little stress and anxiety between all of the activities, Christmas shopping, guests, and all of regular "stuff" that still has to happen on a day-to-day basis. Needless to say, things can get a bit crazy! Keeping up with it all, especially household cleaning, can sometimes feel ...
MY BLOGGER SIDE
I was recently interviewed for an article in our local paper in Charleston and other than being extremely flattered by the opportunity, I thought it might also be good to share it here with you guys on the blog. Not a day goes by that I don't receive a DM asking about the specifics of my position as a business owner or blogger. If you've followed along on my insta-stories recently, you know I ...
HALLOWEEN DECOR: OUR EERIE ENTRYWAY
I've never really been a big fan of Halloween, but since having kids, I've tried to buck up and enjoy the holiday for what it is - a time to have a little fun. I guess the one thing that's always rubbed me the wrong way was all the ghouls, ghosts and goblins. Skeletons, spiders, and blood-sucking vampires... I mean, I just can't. But, it doesn't have to be all about the scary, even if you aren't ...
A SURF INSPIRED PLAY-HOUSE FOR BOYS
With Christmas right around the corner, an outdoor playhouse would make the perfect gift for any toddler in your life. When I think of playhouses, I fondly remember a good portion of my childhood - playing "house" and renovating like a miniature HGTV flipper in the making. When we decided the boys needed one of their own, we searched high and low for a playhouse that would fit the vibe of our ...
5 WAYS TO COZY UP YOUR HOME FOR FALL
We may not be feeling Fall yet in South Carolina thanks to the 90 degree weather we're still getting, but it's starting to feel more like October in our home! The minute I saw Trader Joe's full of pumpkins I started to fill our house with them, so it only seemed appropriate to share 5 ways that we are cozying up our home for Fall. Because with the start of the holidays, hopefully comes cooler ...
A STYLISH FAMILY-FRIENDLY LIVING ROOM
Let me tell you one thing about having kids that they didn't tell you. They - will - ruin - everything. It's just Murphy's Law of being a parent. Everything you once kept nice, will now be turned upside down, on it's head, with peanut butter handprints the size of a toddler plastered all over it like a preschool Mother's Day project. I've since learned to let some things go when it comes to my ...
RAISING HEALTHY, HAPPY KIDS
Thank you to Healthy Times for sponsoring today's post! All thoughts and opinions are my own. There's nothing more important to me, as a mother, than to want to raise healthy and happy kids. Isn't that our main goal in life just as parents? Naturally, I've been simplifying the items in our home to be from companies that offer non-toxic, organic alternatives to things like beauty + cleaning ...
