How Much Does It Cost to Run a Profitable Blog?

At the end of last year, Jamie created a fancy little Excel file where I could easily keep track of my incoming and outgoing blogging money. I’ve been tracking every penny since that’s spent on and earned from this little corner of the internet, and it’s become quite apparent that the old saying is true: It costs money to make… Keep Reading

Slice of Life: August 16th, 2017

After looking back at the pictures in today’s and yesterday’s posts, I’ve realized we’ve done a lot of living outside the last couple weeks. The weather here in northeast Kansas has been unseasonably “cool” (we haven’t hit 90 all month), and comfortable weather like this has all of us wanting to be outdoors. It’s been wonderful! I’m not quite ready… Keep Reading

Meet Erica

Hi! I’m Erica, and I absolutely adore sharing my life on this website with you!

I come here almost daily to blab about all of the things related to being a regular wife and mother in today’s ever-evolving society. I share about our new home, what’s on our kitchen table, what we’re hanging in our closets, where we’re traveling to next, my crazy 5 a.m. work outs, how I make time for girlfriends, our faith, and much more. We always have a lot of balls in the air and somewhat thrive on the chaos.

I believe in the power of story-telling as a form of inspiration and entertainment, so I’m here to do both! I was born and raised in north Alabama and recently re-planted roots here again after my husband transitioned out of the Army (he is now in the Reserve and it’s going so well!) I’m a super proud mom to three little girls (ages 7, 5, and 1) who seem to be the stars of the show around here (for good reason – they’re pretty great!)

I’m so glad you found me and are here reading! I hope we can get to know each other here on the blog as well as Facebook and/or Instagram. xoxo
