We officially have a full week in Alabama under our belts, and it feels really good to be home! I had envisioned last week being full of relaxing days on my parents’ couch and catching my breath a bit, but sure enough we were rockin’ and rollin’ from one to-do list item to the next. Most of it was in… Keep Reading
The Saturday Sit-Down #61: Days of a Wife
Hello hello, and Happy Easter weekend! I have the beautiful Kasey from Days of a Wife on the “Saturday Sit-Down” today, and I think it’s so well-timed that she shares a good amount of faith-based content considering the religious holiday weekend. I love what she has to share today about new adventures, being a newlywed, and a few of her… Keep Reading
Two Beauty Products That Live in My Car
I was driving around a couple of weeks ago, dabbing on some concealer at a red light and then swiping on some matte lip color once I arrived at my destination, and I thought about how darn handy it’s continued to be having a couple of specific make-up items permanently housed in my car.

The Saturday Sit-Down #60: The Good Stuff
Hellooooo from a very slap-happy Erica! Ha! What a week. We are tired and giddy all at the same time. 🙂 Things went well with the packers and movers the last couple days, so today we’re scrubbing this house until it shines and then going out to pop into a few of our favorite places, including the zoo. Our kiddos… Keep Reading
When I Think Back On Our Time Living in Kansas…
On Sunday morning, we’re hitting the road to make the 800 mile trek to Alabama with two very (very very!) packed vehicles. I remember when I drove with the girls down to Alabama in October, I hoped that the next time I made that drive would be in March (if we happened to be moving there for good). Sure enough,… Keep Reading
Packer Prep & a Week That’s Flyin’ By
The last couple weeks have been flying, and I mean FLYING by (!) around here. We’ve had a zillion balls in the air at all times it seems, but now we’re at the point where our packers are on their way this morning and the “to do” list has dwindled significantly. It’s go time! Last week we were focused almost… Keep Reading
