Good morning and happy FRIDAY! Well, we got clobbered with snow yesterday and stayed nice and cozy at home (what a blessing) as the kids had a snow day!
I love this blog link up and can’t wait to jump back into it!
Of course, I’m linking up with some of my favorite bloggers to share them!
It’s a New Year, and what follows is a newly refreshed outlook on how we can improve ourselves and our home life throughout the year. Over the past year, I’ve personally had the chance to reflect on our family and home life. Sitting down in the silence and writing down all the areas in which I can improve as a SAHM and a flower farming business owner has been very enlightening.

What an absolute roller coaster ride it has been this spring and summer. Spring and the end of the school year is always packed with all the events. Summer rolled in, and just like that it’s been BUSY!
Let’s jump into it as there is a lot to catch up on…

My gosh – I feel like I’ve been saying this like crazy recently, but Spring is OFFICIALLY the busiest time of the year. I used to feel like Fall took the cake in this department, but Spring crushes me every single year. Even when I try my best to not do all the things so we can have down time, the activities find a way to all intersect in the worst way in the spring – not to mention the start of flower farming season that comes on FAST!
Like always, here’s a summary of what’s been happening around here!
Continue readingHey, hey, hey and happy Tuesday! Okay, I meant to share this last week, but we have been SO BUSY! Multiple showers where I helped assist with flowers, the start of spring sports and the crazy carpooling and logistics that go with it, gardening work, a shower, out of town wedding and everything in between, here I am. Basically you can check back here tomorrow for What’s up Wednesday to see!
Today, is Prime Time Tuesday where we take a look at some of our Amazon purchases this month.
So let’s have a look at our Amazon this month!

Good morning and happy Monday! I hope you had a great weekend! We’ve been playing catch up as we were out of town this past weekend. The kids played hooky from school today, so we enjoyed a nice day together as we were apart! Today, I’m sharing a garden update – things are starting to pick up which is so hard to believe! Before you know it, it will be tulip time!!

Today, I’m sharing my skincare routine – I want to share – I am a VEERRRRRYYYYY basic person when it comes to skincare and am still learning all the things! I’ve been doing this skincare routine for the past 2-3ish years and have noticed some great changes to my skin.
The past winters, I’ve survived with smooth skin avoiding all the dryness winter has to offer – that was really my main goal starting out. Now, I’ve added in some retinol (not very concentrated at all – I will get there) and some vitamin E oil (which I love!).
Continue readingWe are SO ready for spring! We had a taste of some gorgeous weather this week (now there is snow back on the ground…yea this is spring in Cleveland.) it felt amazing to get outside and open up all the windows to let the fresh air in! I’m weirdly excited about daylight savings this weekend. I know some people hate it, but I love the fact we will start seeing a lot longer days filled with sunshine and light!
Of course, I’m linking up with some of my favorite bloggers to share them!
Hey and Happy Thursday! Today I wanted to share a little more about our Mini Bernedoodle, Nellie who just turned 3! I can’t believe how many views these posts have received – there must be an increased interest in the breed! So, if you were anything like me 3 years ago – searching for any information I could find about Bernedoodles, you’ve come to the right place!
First, I always start out by saying, we had no intention on a dog. We thought our lifestyle would be WAYY too busy for a dog, but it is crazy how you find a way to make it work. It also helps that I am a stay at home Mom, so I am around her a lot, that made us feel more comfortable with the decision. Getting a dog was one of the best decisions. She brings us pure joy. We are always fascinated by her (and the fact there is an animal living in our house).

It’s Ash Wednesday and every year on this day, I find myself diving deeper and deeper into the Lenten season ahead. I’m not sure if it’s age or the more you learn spiritually every passing year, but you realize how precious life is and how temporary our life here on Earth is. As a Catholic, Lent is a time to grow in faith and grow closer to God. We prepare and reflect on the great sacrifice Jesus made for us. We repent, turn away from sin and seek to change our own life to become more Christ-centered.
I’ve shared this many times before, but we have the Hallow app and use it religiously (no pun intended). I LOVE the daily reflections – which serve as mini “homilies” on the daily Gospel reading. The other day, Jeff Cavins (the individual who writes the daily reflections) talked about a Latin phrase – “Momento Mori” translated “remember you must die“. That phrase has really stuck with me the past couple days – today particularly. While morbid, it is a reminder of our Earthly lives fleeting nature. It is also an important reminder to think about our purpose here and help focus on our hope and desire for eternal life. How can we get to Heaven?
moreOkay, who used to penpal?! I was telling Audrey recently how I used to write to my cousins, friends and grandparents. It was the best feeling getting letters in the mail and even felt so cool sealing the envelope and sending one out!
Continue readingHappy Friday and happy last Friday of FEBRUARY! I cannot believe how fast the month flew by and am just so tickled March is here. We are one step closer to spring – I can smell it in the air and hear all the beautiful bird songs all around us! I told the kids on the way to school today – we are almost out of it. Out of winter and back to days of sunshine and outdoor play – we are so ready!
Of course, I’m linking up with some of my favorite bloggers to share them!
Good morning and happy Thursday! After dealing with annoying issues, I’m back to blogging and can upload pictures again… yay!

I was having some storage/hosting issues on my website, and would appreciate any advice on this topic! What platform do you love if you blog and does it give you enough storage (i.e. cloud, etc). Site hosting is getting expensive, so I want to make sure I’m making the right decision so I can continue blogging!
