This is a very easy review to write, this vacuum has changed my life! Let me give you a little backstory about what our life looks like day-to-day. I have a toddler, two dogs (one is an Australian shepherd that sheds like it’s going out of style), several wool area rugs, and a husband. Our house is . . .
Winston Sweater
Hey everyone! This is an exciting post, I finished my first knit sweater! Ahhh! So excited! This was the perfect pattern for my first knit sweater. Not only was the pattern super simple to follow, you can also find this yarn at any craft store and it knits up super quick because it’s bulky . . .
Dashing Dingle, Ireland
After leaving the lovely city of Dublin, we hopped on a plane over to Dingle, Ireland. This was a short flight that took less time than bus or train, and was actually the cheapest option. If you missed the blog post on our travels in Dublin, click here to catch up! If you are traveling within . . .
Best Brine Ever
Here in the Midwest, we grill out on the deck, a lot. Even if there is a foot of snow, we shovel a pathway to our grill. I also married a meat lover, so meat is usually on the dinner menu. And if you’re a typical family like us, chicken and pork are a regular menu item because it’s inexpensive and . . .
My Birth Story
I’ve decided to write about my pregnancy and birth story because when I was pregnant with Edie, I read so many other blogs that reminded me that I had the strength within me to do this.

Honeybun’s Raisin & Oat Cookies
Over the years, I have been slowly perfecting this recipe. Adjusting things with each batch I’ve made, trying to find the perfect balance of chewy and crunchy, salty and sweet. These cookies are hands down my husband Justin’s favorite cookie, and I lovingly call him Honeybun, so that’s where they . . .
Dreamy Dublin
If you missed our wedding blog post, we decided that we wanted a few more stamps on our passport instead of saying our vows in front of hundreds of people. We had the travel bug and when my Dad offered to fund our travels instead of a big wedding, we decided to hop on a plane over to Europe! First . . .
High School Sweethearts
Almost three years ago, I married my best friend on our eleven year anniversary. We had a very small ceremony with just our immediate family in a small church that could not have been more perfect. I actually had planned on just exchanging vows with Justin at dinner. What I thought I wanted . . .
8 Baby Items Every New Parent Needs
When you are a first time parent, everything is terrifying. I remember just laying in the hospital bed with my husband at my side and our newborn daughter sleeping in her little bassinet wondering if she was still breathing. Thoughts running through my mind like “Is the swaddle too close to her . . .
