Weekend Rewind: Weekend Top 4

Happy Monday everyone! One of the main purposes of why I wanted to start this blog was to also selfishly force myself to “journal” things going on with my family. I am also the absolute WORST picture taker of all time, so hopefully this will force me to stop and document moments because the kiddos are not going to get any younger 🙁

What we thought would start as a relaxing weekend, turned into another crazy one again! Also, how is it the last week of July…?  This summer is moving crazy fast, but I don’t even want to think about that! We have a lot of fun and exciting things happening ahead and for our month of August!

Welcome

Hi everyone, I’m Lisa, a late twenty-something from the Midwest, a wife to my grade school sweetheart, mom of two toddlers (ages 4 and 2) and a soon to be newborn! I quit my marketing job after the birth of my son nearly two years ago which has allowed me to see both sides of the coin of being in the professional workplace and now being at home with my kids. Neither are easy, but both are rewarding and I want to share my love of what I do as a stay at home Mom, how-to’s in terms of tips, tricks and insights in the realms of faith, family and home life, budgeting, food and recreating expensive looks for less.
