Back in July we decided to head on a Strange adven Back in July we decided to head on a Strange adventure. It was a Surprise for Ella, our Stranger Things Super Fan!  After becoming a fan myself, thanks to her, I started looking into Stranger Things experiences!  I mean, it’s based in Indiana so why shouldn’t there be something here?!?

Well… @graduatehotels came back having a Stranger Things suite and after talking it over with Mike, we decided it was the perfect summer weekend away with a twist! 

Scroll to see a few pics, head over to the blog #linkinmybio for a recap of the whole experience and keep an eye out for a reels a bit later!

The 2022 Indiana State Fair is just a few days awa The 2022 Indiana State Fair is just a few days away! 

We have the BEST memories going to the fair and make more every year!  Plus, there’s something for everyone. 

What’s your fave fair memory?! 

The popular $2 Tuesdays are gone since the fair is closed Mondays and Tuesdays. Instead, fairgoers can take advantage of $3 Thursdays, with $3 admission, $3 midway rides and $3 food options at each food stand.

After two weekends away, and yes I swear I'm worki After two weekends away, and yes I swear I'm working on recaps, it makes me realize I'm a true combination of a curious homebody.  Whenever we go somewhere, all I really want to do is get back home, but I also don't want to "waste" the trip so I want to fit in as many fun moments as I can!  It could be making sure we hit that candy shop we saw on Yelp, or going to a popular tourist location, or walking around a historic location... No matter where we go as a family, I try to fit at least something in that we can't get a home. 

Whatever it is, I don't want to miss the opportunity to make memories and take advantage of a little adventure... 

But there's something to be said about home... 
Your own bed... 
Your comfy couch...
The way your home smells... 
Your friends... 
Your routines... 

So, let's all take a moment to take it all in, be grateful for all that we have at home and realize that, for a lot of people, home is their happy place, and we are the lucky ones. 

*On that note, I'm working on a few things that should be posted soon!  I'm excited to share our recent travels, a couple DIYs, and more!  I am always slow to share because I just feel like there aren't enough hours in the day, but please hang in there with me because I hope I offer something to all those who follow here!  It's a place where you'll find good things, but sometimes, good things come to those who wait patiently on a busy working momma who is tired! LOL.  Keep an eye out for new content soon!

Do you have your kids help with chores? And how d Do you have your kids help with chores?  And how do you motivate them?! We’ve been working hard over here this summer trying to get the kids to help around the house.  It’s like pulling teeth to get them to put their damn shoes away!  Does anyone else have this problem too?!

So I created this little chore printable that includes chores and monopoly-ish money. And so far, my kids seem to respond well to cold hard cash 💵. They don’t do every chore every week, but Ella just bought something “on her own” so I basically got my money back!  Hahah. 

The banker comes on Friday to cash out and then they can spend the fruits of their labor over the weekend…
So far so good… 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻
Printable is on the blog!  #linkinmybio

Sometimes it’s something as simple as what you a Sometimes it’s something as simple as what you already have and hanging it/them on a wall around your home. Gather a bunch of one thing together and you can make a pretty easy gallery wall.  I had all of these but two, which I grabbed at Hobby Lobby for 50% off so, this little wall cost me $25. 

It’s not always about how much you spend, but the statement it makes. Loving my new little wall of cutting boards… the wood tones bring in a natural warmth and while these don’t have stories yet, they might after a few years and uses! 

What kind of gallery walls do you have in your home?
