Last summer I had the incredible opportunity to attend the She Speaks conference put on by the Proverbs 31 Ministry team. If you are not familiar with Proverbs 31, they are a large non-denominational ministry focused on bringing women into relationship with Christ. Every morning one of their devotionals slides into my mail box with…
The heat of summer is in full swing at our house! Having the kids home all the time has really pushed me to tackle some organizing projects. There is stuff everywhere 24/7. This DIY baseball bat rack has been a great solution for our sporting goods arsenal. When we bought our house it needed MAJOR…

It felt like I drove past it 50 times. This blue Adirondack chair buried under boxes on the curb waiting for bulk trash day. It was between our house and the baseball park where all three of my kids had practices and games, so you know we were really burning up the road between the…
Farmhouse Storage, a toolbox makeover that is simple for storage solution for guys! Maybe it’s the throws of summer that have me trying to organize anything I can to balance the complete lack of schedule we currently have. I’m not sure, but I am sure that with three little ones home all day stuff is…
Our yard is a magical place. Sometimes I wonder if I’m the only one that gets excited about all the treasures that rotate through this little piece of land we call home. Do other people love their yard as much as I do? When I look around I see that our yard is more than a…
When you walk through my house I doubt you would describe it as coastal décor. Traditionally speaking it’s not. But the real story behind my home’s color palette is 100% coastal. You might just say a little birdie told me which direction to take! Next week I will share ALL my home’s paint colors and more…
create a gorgeous mercury glass diy from grocery store finds. It’s summer and that puts a little crunch on the mom schedule. I like to change out décor and work on projects but with three pair of feet scurrying around it gets tough to find the time. So today I am so excited to join…
Today I’m sprucing up a wooden serving tray I got for a dollar at a local flea market. I’ve been eyeing all the gorgeous furniture I’ve been seeing gussied up with napkin print. Have you seen some? It looks as if some amazingly talented artist hand painted a beautiful pattern that has aged and worn…
I came across this dirty old lamp shade at a garage sale the other day. It set me back $1. Admittedly, I had no idea what I was going to do with it when I bought it, but it had good bones that spoke to me. Good bones really are the key to seeing diamonds…
It’s summer time and that means one thing at our house. Sibling rivalry is full blown. I am not sure I will ever understand the extent of ugliness that can spew out of their mouths towards each other and then, within minutes, they would take a bullet for one another. My sisters are much older…
We’ve all been there at some point. Sitting in a house we don’t love. Just biding our time until we can move. Things will be better when we have more space, a bigger yard, an updated kitchen or _____ (fill in the blank with your dream). We sit. Held captive by our home. Temporarily immobilized….

It’s officially summer according to me. June 1st is the starting line to summer in my head. The kids still have a few days of school left and the solstice calendar won’t declare it for a few more weeks, but today is my go day. To kick it off I’m sharing the Hunt & Host…
