Simple slow cooker applesauce

Category: Recipes

One of our favorite things to do in the fall is visit this apple orchard – many times! This year it is even more exciting because Jesse’s parents have a orchard at their house!! So we have been very lucky to have lots of apples at our disposal this year. My favorite thing to make when we have lots of extra apples is this simple slow cooker applesauce. For one it is just so easy to do and everyone loves it. It’s also a great way to use up those not so perfect apples because it all cooks down anyway. Another great apple recipe to try in my Healthy(ish) Apple Crumble Recipe if you are looking for a sweet treat. Prep First thing to do is of course wash and prep the apples. You want to peel and cut the apples into slices. I will link my favorite tools to make…

Friday Splendors and DIY Succulent Pumpkin Tutorial!

Category: Home Decor

Hey hey its Friday! I’m going to be totally honest this week has been a bit of a rollercoaster. My poor kiddos have been sick which is never fun and I’m just waiting for it to hit me. But some really exciting things have been happening this week too! Always look for the positive, right?! So lets talk about what I loved this week and other exciting things for this weekend. Fall Vibes There is just something so fun about getting a package in the mail! My favorite delivery of the season arrived this week. My fall mugs from DeMarie Designs came and I was literally jumping up and down with excitement. She has so many fun Halloween mugs and the cutest fall inspired ones. You have to check out the leopard pumpkin spice mug! I also started working on my Halloween decor and will post it all when…

Shoe Capsule for Fall

Category: Style

Now that fall has officially decided to show up around here, I like to go through and swap out my shoes for my most worn ones that I rotate through the season. By doing this I am essentially creating my shoe capsule for fall. This capsule contains something for pretty much every type of day (excluding special occasions). The ones I have chosen are just an example of types that would work well for different days, weather, occasions and outfits. Whether you work with what you currently have or find similar pairs its just about making everything have multiple uses and purposes. All product details are linked at the bottom of the post! Booties As you may have noticed I picked several pairs of booties because its definitely what I wear most. One of my newest favorites are these flat cognac colored booties (pictured above). The cutout detail is…

Fall Decor Home Tour

Category: Home Decor

Fall Home Decor Tour Getting my home warm and cozy for fall is one of my favorite things! I’m that person who lights a pumpkin candle in August (sorry not sorry hehe). This year was a little more of a challenge as I somehow mysteriously misplaced my bin with all my fall stuff in it so I had to start from scratch. I try to do my best to reuse and repurpose as much as I can to save money and space. We are limited on storage so I have to be efficient. The color palette I decided to go with is a lot of neutrals with pops of fall colors here and there. I also did an emphasis on more blush tones and a little less orange. I feel like I can transition it more into Christmas easier that way. Each area I will give you a little…

Target Fall Decor in Bullseye’s Playground

Category: Home Decor

My first (and favorite) stop when going into Target is going to Bullseye’s Playgroud. Or as I still will call it the dollar spot. Whatever you call it – we all know and love it. There’s always some hidden treasure in there and you can’t pass it up because the prices are so good! On my recent trip I found some really cute and great fall pieces. If you follow along on my instagram you would have heard me talking about how I had somehow lost my bin with all my fall decor! So I have been slowing grabbing things over the past couple weeks. This trip was a total score and I didn’t know until recently that many of the items are available online! Here is the little metal house with the tea light in it that I just fell in love with. I knew my kids would…

What to do before you start a renovation

Category: Home Decor

It’s always so fun and exciting to start a home renovation project. I am the first one to jump on board whenever there is talks of starting to work on something new. After countless home renovation projects I wanted to share some lessons I’ve learned along the way that will hopefully save you some time and maybe even a little cash. The key is to think about what to do BEFORE you start a renovation. This applies to big and small projects because planning is a crucial step. *just a little disclaimer for you. I am not a builder but I am a handy mama who knows a fair amount about building, design and a lot of experience in real estate 😉 this is just meant as general guidance so always consult a professional beforehand Who doesn’t love demo day?! It’s so exciting to break things down in…

Fall Target Try On

Category: Style

On a quick Target run I picked a few staple pieces and put together this fall target try on. I was really excited to find out that Levis are now carried at Target! Levis are one of my favorite denim brands because I love the fit but they are also a great price and quality. This first look I grabbed this grey leopard print tee and paired it with these straight crop jeans. Love the style of these jeans! I also picked up these cut out booties and these are going to be my go to for this fall. Great option as a comfortable bootie since its flat. Shop the look Next I just layered up with this blush sweatshirt. This sweatshirt comes in a bunch of colors and is the perfect thickness for layering. Shop the look I have already worn this band tee so many…

Trader Joe’s Haul

Category: Lifestyle

Trader Joe’s is definitely one of my favorite grocery stores. They have lots of great products at great prices. Plus it’s a good one to go to when you have the kids in tow because they have the cute little baskets and give stickers and suckers at checkout. Everyone is happy! Sharing my recent Trader Joe’s haul of some of my favorites and a few new finds. If your crew is anything like mine they get a little restless having to run errands with me. The best part about taking them to Trader Joe’s with me aside from them getting treats at check out is that the store is not so oversized that it’s a huge commitment when you are there. We are in and out pretty quick which is a win for all of us. Trader Joe’s Haul Here are some of my top favorites from this Trader…

Strawberry Herb Lemonade

Category: Recipes

Nothing says summertime like lemonade! Several years ago we decided to make use of our herb garden and put a fun twist on it. With just a few new ingredients this Strawberry Herb Lemonade is packed with bright and refreshing flavor for a hot day. The best part about this is it is great for everyone! Kids and adults all love it just the same. When I make it for the kids I usually use a shaker and strain out the large chunks so theres no clogging their straws. For adults I mix in all the pieces to pack it with flavor and if you want to make it an “adult” beverage I had in vodka for the grown ups. Recipe below! This recipe is super easy to make. Gather up your strawberries, fresh mint and basil and make sure everything is washed and clean. Tear your herbs 2-3…

Target decor pieces I’m loving lately

Category: Home Decor

So like many people, Target is my jam when it comes to decor! Well and let’s be honest it’s my jam for pretty much everything else too. It’s so great because you can get so many affordable and stylish pieces. My current favorite target decor pieces are ones that really make a difference yet can stand the test over time without having to swap them out. Target Decor Pieces and some other favorites I am so in love with my front porch this season! Most of it is because of this adorable Home Sweet Home Doormat. They have so many cute doormats and for great prices. I will also link my cute mug and the mat layered underneath. These are some of the most timeless pieces I have in this spot of my house. This round mirror can be used in so many ways! I have seen it over…
