There are a lot of reasons your Mother's Day might be hard this year (maybe it's been hard for years, even). I don't have to name your grief here for it to be valid. But I'll take a stab at...

Well isn't this a welcome update! I've been dreaming of a day that we could have a cozy, inviting set for our try ons at AC! A simple backdrop allows the clothes to shine! Which allows you to envision them as...

When I was dreaming up our most recent photo shoot I knew I wanted my girl Katie to make a mini birthday cake for the perfect happy-three-year photo opp. And let me tell you, this thing was not only cute,...

Capsule wardrobes aren't for everyone, I get it. I personally love capsule "styles," because of the simplicity that they bring to my life. But I don't set strict capsule wardrobe guidelines regarding number of pieces, only shopping seasonally, monetary goals, etc....

Not much in life beats a top that will work with you four (count them...F-O-U-R) seasons of the year. Am I right?! The key: fabric, color, and fit that effortlessly layers over, under, or is dreamy simply by itself!  Recently I added...

You heard it right! NINE WAYS! Who knew? And you better bet your bottom dollar there are more ways than these. When I grabbed the Carmen off of my clothing rack and started getting creative, I realized my options were...

The family I had the privilege of marrying into is so stinking special. And Christmas is one of the many times throughout the year that their uniqueness is highlighted to me! Why so special, and why during Christmas, you ask? Girlfriend,...

There's one tradition our family can't life without. In fact, even if we are traveling, this tradition goes with us. Meet our Christmas Manger! We DIYed this little thing several years ago as we were preparing for our first Christmas with...

No one can argue that Christmas celebrations this year might look a little different. But "different" can't cancel the reason we have to party this year or any year! You've got lots of to-dos on your list this time of year....

I have fallen in love with the Crew Tie Overalls - the perfect mash up of casual overalls and a stylish jumpsuit. If you can be cute and comfortable, (news flash) sign me up! So I thought I'd throw together...

The 4th of July is upon us and no matter how you choose to remember this day, we hope you spend some of it grateful for the freedoms you've been afforded, thinking of the many that have sacrificed in order...

Summer living means easy, fun, practical styles that don't keep you from having the *most* fun. Whether you work in or out of your home, you probably spend more time "playing" this time of year than any other! Weekends at...

Mother's Day is just around the corner and many of us are already considering how we'll tell the women in our lives just how much we love them! I know this can be a complicated and painful holiday for so many reasons. Whether you have a broken relationship with your own mother, have prayed for children longer than you can remember, grieve the heartache of one or more of your children's first mommas (or you are a first mommma), or maybe you simply long for a spouse and one day a growing family. I'm praying for you! I'm hoping and trusting that you can find Joy in the midst of your pain. When we seek Him, He can be found, sister.

Easter 2020 is going to be one for the books, y'all. Easily, this Easter will be one that we and our families will talk about for the rest of our lives. It's not likely we'll experience many like this. And, for...

TBH, we've lived in our house for over 2 years and haven't finished decorating a. single. room. What's the rush...right? We also may have played musical chairs more than one time with our rooms. And our sweet son Deacon has...

Every adoption story is unique, and ours was no different. It took about three years from the first meeting we attended to the day I first laid eyes on our baby girl, and the waiting looked so different than I expected...

The Together Tee has a design that is particularly meaningful to adoptive families. This simple triangle depicts the three-sided relationship between the birth parents, adoptive parents, and adoptees.

My husband and I have four young children. We are incredibly grateful that one of the ways the Lord grew our family was through adoption! Here are some of the ways our friends and family supported us and continue to support us now that our son is home!

Come with me for a little behind the scenes as we narrow down literally thousands and thousands of styles to the perfect pieces for *your* closet!

Summer is the absolute best...am I right? But with kids running around aimlessly under foot it can get a little overwhelming, slightly monotonous, and totally out of control. In the (almost) six years of being a mommy I've figured out that this fam (okay...maybe it's just me?) thrives on routine. But when I thrive, I think my kids do too. And after years of a somewhat predictable daily routine, I can see that they find some rest and peace in knowing what to expect each day. There tends to be less complaining, less fighting, less begging for food, and just a general happiness. I dig it. So here is a little run-down of what a normal summer day in home looks like.

I love some fun makeup. Love. But I also love (read: need) it to be easy and quick. I don't want to forfeit something that brings a little happiness to my day and helps me feel ready to tackle all of my "to-dos" just because my time is limited. So I need something I can do in a matter of minutes, you feel me?  

Here goes! My daily eye make-up routine. 3 minutes, and you're done!
