Fletcher’s Little Blue Truck’s Halloween Birthday Party
This post contains affiliate links. I may receive a small commission for any sales made through them. The cost to you remains the same. Can you believe my little Fletcher just turned two on October 14th? It’s still hard to believe how fast the time goes by. He is a sweet, happy, funny little guy who loves to get into mischief (and believe me…he does!). He especially loves to read with me, which I love too. His current favorite is anything Little Blue Truck related. So, with his birthday being two weeks before Halloween, we decided to throw together a no fuss Little Blue Truck’s Halloween party for him. If…

Spooky Fun Halloween Village Display
My kids have been counting down the days until they get to dress up and go trick-or-treating. They simply can’t wait! But with a couple of days left, I figure I still have some time to show you a little bit more from our home decorated for Halloween. I gave a little tour last week and mentioned a super fun (and little bit spooky) Halloween village that we put together. We named it “Spooky Street,” and today I’m going to show you all the details!

Minimalist Master Bedroom Staged to Sell
Today, I’m excited to pick back up on a series I started over the summer, showing how we staged our previous house to sell. It was a major undertaking with three small children and having to live in it at the same time, but we did it on our own and for minimal cost. Once we got the house listed, we had six showings the first day and were able to sell it for above list price in less than 24 hours. It really came down to decluttering and staging to make that possible, since we did not live in a particularly “hot” market area. I started this series with…

Choosing Boy’s Bedroom Furniture
Thank you to Raymour & Flanigan for providing the furniture in this space. All expressed opinions are 100% my own. Full Disclosure. Last Friday, I shared with you guys Hazel’s bedroom transformation, and as promised, today I am showing off Owen’s! He just turned five at the end of September and loves all things red, Ninja Turtles, and superheroes. He has never had his own room, until our move to our new home over the summer. The transition was rough the first few months, since he was afraid to be on his own at night, but with the help of some new furniture, and doing up his room with his favorites, that…

Choosing Girl’s Bedroom Furniture
Thank you to Raymour & Flanigan for providing the furniture in this space. All expressed opinions are 100% my own. Full Disclosure. I am so excited to share with you the progress we have made in Hazel’s bedroom today! If you don’t know, we just moved to our new four bedroom home at the end of July after living in a two bedroom for seven years. Hazel is six and in first grade, and has shared a room with her younger brother, Owen, since they were toddlers. I have been anxiously waiting to make her girly dreams come true for her new room. Both kids had been sharing Hazel’s room…

Packing Up a House Full of Memories
I knew it would feel like the blink of an eye and the time to move would be here. And now it has arrived. We officially moved out of our home this week and the new owner was given the keys yesterday. I was feeling all sorts of emotions as we went through this process and our home got emptier and emptier. We are currently housesitting for my cousin as we have waited for the closing day on our new home. We finally get to move in this weekend! Since my desktop computer is packed away, I only have access to our laptop and previous blog photos, so today I…
