Today I'm joining Emily from Queen of the Household as we share a look at our patriotic decor for this summer! I am fiercely patriotic and always enjoy displaying my love of country throughout the decor in my home. Usually I leave my red, white and blue out from a few weeks before Memorial Day until at… Continue reading My Home Sweet Home {Patriotic Decor}

Grocery Store Games {Menu Monday}
One of my favorite things to do while in the grocery store is to look in other people's carts. It's fascinating to see what people purchase - sometimes I can make a good guess as to what they are making for supper based on the contents of their cart. It's also fascinating to me how… Continue reading Grocery Store Games {Menu Monday}
5 Things on Friday {6.17.16}
Here are five things I loved about the past week: The 35th Anniversary Party my sister and I hosted for our parents (read all about it here)! Hanging out with my sister all weekend!

Dinner Party Planning: My Parents’ 35th Anniversary
Last weekend my sister and I had the privilege of helping our parents celebrate their 35th anniversary. We had so much fun planning and hosting this event! Other than my wedding (which was pretty simple), this was the biggest event I've organized. Alli's creativity and excellent taste was a perfect match for my love of spreadsheets… Continue reading Dinner Party Planning: My Parents’ 35th Anniversary
My Morning Routine
I am not a morning person and I have no plans to become one! Even though the first few hours of the day are not my favorite, I have learned how to make them as productive and pleasant as possible. One of the best ways to help a morning go smoothly is to implement an evening… Continue reading My Morning Routine

My Favorite Verses For The Hard Times
Trials, hard times and suffering are inevitable, but we don't have to go through them without hope or help. Our pastor reminded us recently of the importance of knowing the promises of God's Word. I wrote this down in my journal a few Sundays ago: Knowing God's Word not only helps us get through the… Continue reading My Favorite Verses For The Hard Times
A New Approach To Meal Planning {Menu Monday}
I've been sharing my weekly menu plans on this blog for almost two years! I enjoy sharing with you, but having to list what we're having for all three meals is also good accountability to make sure I'm planning thoroughly for our week. Another benefit of sharing my weekly meal plans is that you give… Continue reading A New Approach To Meal Planning {Menu Monday}

1// Happy International Doughnut Day! I'm looking forward to picking up my free doughnut at the grocery store today...instead of glancing longingly at them as I pass the bakery cases (that's basically a weekly occurrence since I shop in the late afternoon). My favorite doughnut of all time is a glazed hot one right off… Continue reading 5 Things on Friday {6.3.16}
Because Marriage Matters (May Recap)
Marriage really does matter. Last year I worked with a couple who hated being together so much that they often slept in different locations (not just different beds, different addresses). This year I have the pleasure of working with a couple who adore each other. It is a pleasure to be around them! They are… Continue reading Because Marriage Matters (May Recap)
