What I’m Reading Now

By Bre

I started off 2020 with a personal goal for myself. No, not a list of new years resolutions, but ONE goal that I wanted to challenge myself with personally. It's easy for me to write up ideas and goals I have for this blog, or things I want to do with the kids this year, or projects I want to get done around the house in the upcoming new year. But this, this goal was just for me. A personal goal that didn't affect or rely on anyone else. Honestly, it had been a while since I had don't anything for myself like that, and it felt good to focus on something that was just for me. Do you know what my 1 goal for 2020 is? ...

The BEST Skinny Margarita

By Bre

Hello Friends! I'm going to be honest, in the past I would have been totally skeptic just by the title of todays blog post. I used to think of myself as somewhat of a coinessuar when it came to Margaritas, and I had tried my fair share of "skinny" margaritas in the past, but they just never seemed to taste like a true margarita. Margaritas were my favorite drink to order when we would go out, and my absolute favorite summertime drink. Up until a couple years ago when I started cutting back on my sugar intake, and cleaning up my diet even more, I loved margaritas!! Unfortunately, the sour mix used to make margaritas didn't make the cut, so I just left out having margaritas all together - ... Read More about The BEST Skinny Margarita

Hello Friends! The sweet sounds of summer have graced our backyard! Birds singing again, leaves back on the trees, and the smell of fresh cut grass. While the world around us still feels uneasy and uncertain, I decided to shop my home for this years Summer Mantle decor, making it 100% FREE to me. It's true I have collected quite the arsenal of home decor over the past few years of blogging, but as I pulled out pieces to use I'm reminded of the advice I always share when it comes to buying things for your home. When you absolutely love what you buy, then you will love the room you decorate it with even more. Making it decor to last through the years, not just provide a quick fix. I love ...

New Gravel Patio

By Bre

We did it friends!! If you've seen any of my IG stories over the last week than you know recently we've been working on installing a new gravel patio in our yard, and I'm so excited to share this project with you today! We are 98% done with this project, with only a tiny area by our back door to finish, but I get so many questions on how we installed the gravel patio around our fire pit area, that I wanted to share how we installed our new gravel patio area next to the house. I took a ton of photos along the way - so beware! This post is photo heavy, but sometimes it's easier to let the photos do the talking, and I included a full budget breakout below. So here we go!
