Here are a few of my favorite things–the topics that really make me tick. I love to focus aspects of life that are already good and find ways to make them even better. You’ll find content here that I hope will add value to your everyday. We’ll discuss faith, travel, home, organization, fitness, podcasts, and more topics that will cheer you on to live your best, most abundant life.
Hi friends! I’m *so* excited to finally be sharing the finished product of our bedroom here in Denver! We moved here in October 2019 and have been slowly but surely decorating over the past year. Things were a little slow to start because I was also planning a wedding (and the holidays!)….oh, and then the pandemic slowed things down FOR SURE. But I am THRILLED to be sharing everything with…
As I navigate my way through my second trimester, one of the trickiest things for me has been finding things to wear that I feel good in. Seems like a simple problem, but at this point, my body is just in an unrecognizable place for me and getting dressed has been a stressor. It’s like my bump is definitely visible, but I also feel like I’m that awkward stage where I’m…
Dreams are coming true in BTD world y’all because today’s post is in partnership with Yasso – my absolute FAVORITE treat! I became an ambassador for them this year and it’s legit a dream come true! If you’ve been around here for more than a minute than you’ve probably seen me eating/talking about Yasso on my IG Stories. I discovered them a handful of years ago and never turned back!…
You might have seen or followed along on Instagram, but I wanted to share a little more about our trip this past weekend to The Broadmoor in Colorado Springs! I’ve gotten a few questions and I’d love to have a place where I can send people and house some images of our experience! I saved my stories from the weekend to a highlight but I think those expire after a…
It’s crazy how much more excited I am for fall now that we live in Colorado. I kinda got to experience it last year (I moved in October) but definitely more so this year and I’m clearly here for it! Basically I plan on living in all the oversized sweaters and doing as many fall things as I can! I really, really want to find a pretty fall hike (more…
In case you haven’t had enough fall content around here, I thought I’d share some very cozy fall home decor! I love decorating for the holidays and seasons, but I tried not to go overboard with pumpkin everything and instead thought more about texture and color. I think you can definitely make your home feel like fall simply by adding details like this blanket and this faux sheepskin pillow. I…
Hi friends! If you follow me on Instagram that you probably already know, but Duncan and I are having a baby! And we are over the moon excited! I’m 16 weeks today (crazy!), so we are really starting to get pumped as we’re almost halfway there! I shared some of our announcement photos on instagram but wanted to have a more permanent home for them on my blog. I went…
Despite all the books I tried to read or was told I needed to read (etc. etc.), I still leaned on the simple, comforting advice that as long as I was taking a good prenatal, I was doing OK. There are so many books about all the things you should or could be doing to have a healthy pregnancy – food to eat, food not to eat, exercise to do…
This post has been a long time coming and I’m so excited to finally be sitting down to write it. At the beginning of summer, I had high hopes of getting it done really quickly, but like most things, it ended up taking much longer than I expected! Regardless, I’m thrilled it’s finished and we’ve been enjoying it every single day. Getting to spend more time outside was one of…
Duncan and I love a good movie marathon! During the Stay at Home time this past Spring, we watched A LOT of TV shows and got sucked into them. I personally love drama series because I love being on the edge of my seat and getting really sucked in. But after months of watching intense TV shows, we were ready for a change of pace! So Duncan thought of the…
As much as I love to cook and be creative in the kitchen, I think we can all agree that some days it’s just easier to get takeout! I’ve been living in Denver for almost a year now and I thought it would be fun to share some of my favorite places to get takeout incase you are from Denver and need new recommendation, or are traveling here sometime soon! Duncan and I have few go-to spots that we’ve fallen in love with!
It’s that time of the month again – I’m sharing all the recipes I’m interested in cooking this month! I had so much fun in July making Sriracha Shrimp Tacos and Hibachi Style Chicken with Magic Mustard Sauce, but I found some new, fun recipes for this month and I’m excited to share them with ya’ll! Outfit Details: Denim Shorts (my favorite shorts – fit TTS) // Ruffle Sleeve Peplum Top…
My brain feels constantly overloaded, so the thought of memorizing anything feels impossible to me on most day! Anyone else feel that way? Even though it feels challenging, I know it’s important. Especially as I have shared with you guys about my desire to grow in prayer and using scripture to pray. What better way to pray scripture than memorizing it? But back to the fact that it feels hard.…
Outfit Details : Leggings // Top // Cardigan // Shoes OK, I feel like I have to kind of say something before diving into this post. I am NOT any kind of personal trainer/fitness influencer LOL. I started sharing my workouts on IG a while ago (even before COVID) because I thought it would be helpful to anyone else who struggles to workout even though they know they should (AKA…
I’ve had so many people tell me to get an air fryer and I finally pulled the trigger and bought one! I was so excited when it came in, that I couldn’t resist plugging it in and trying something out! I love my Avocado Toast and I wanted to try to make some with sweet potatoes instead! And they turned out AMAZING – perfect for breakfast, lunch, or even a…
Okay Y’all, so a moment of transparency; I haven’t been cooking as much as I was in the beginning of quarantine and I miss it! With that being said, I found some new recipes that got me excited about picking up my spatula and getting back in the kitchen again and I hoping that sharing these will spark a little summer cooking with all of you. I’m planning to make…
With everything that’s been going on and most gyms shut down for the past few months, I thought this was a really timely subject to talk about. A lot of places have reopened depending where you live, but I know a lot of you are still working out at home. Personally, I’ve been back to my gym a few times, but not gonna lie, it still feels a little weird.
Something I’m working really hard on right now is slowing way down and enjoying more of the simple things in life like walks with Duncan or getting to Facetime with my family. I want to recognize and acknowledge that each day is truly a gift and take what would normally be any old day and to look for opportunities to make it a little more special! Know what I mean?…
