It’s Sunday, so you know what that means… It’s meal plan day! And if you’re ever in need of a little extra inspiration, remember to check out the Meal Planning page! But for now, as usual, here’s a look at our dinners from the previous week. Sunday: Tandoori-Spiced Chicken with Green ...
Fun Facts Friday {8/28}
1. The last weekend of August. Holy crap, where did the last month go?! I'm hoping we'll be able to get a little pool action in, since once September happens, I feel like pool time is basically over (sad face). 2. The last couple of days here have been quite a bit cooler than the extreme ...
How We’re Using Our Spare Bedroom For Now
When we were in the early stages of designing our home and choosing a plan that was right for us, we were faced with the decision of whether or not we wanted to have a 3 bedroom or a 4 bedroom home. In a world where money doesn’t matter, we would have easily chosen the 4 bedroom…however, we couldn’t ...
WIAW: My New Favorite Snack Bar

Weekly Meal Plan {8/23}
A day late is better than nothing, right? Well, the GOOD news is that we finally have cable and internet at the house – WOO HOO! The bad news (although, not really, I suppose) is that the majority of my evenings the past two nights have been devoted to one thing only… Painting. And lots of ...
Fun Facts Friday {8/21}
1. It's really quite interesting to see just how much extra time I have when there is no internet in the house. Seriously. I've put Lucas to bed the past 2-3 nights and not rushed to a computer afterwards...and you know, it's been kinda nice! We've had to be more aware of the data usage on our ...

The Whole Family is Back Together Again!
Hey guys! How's the week treating you all so far? Things are still going well over here, and we're still working on getting settled (pretty sure I'll be saying that for months). I can't tell you how much I'm looking forward to just getting back into a regular routine, on all fronts of life! Meal ...
