Today's post is a bit different, but I'm excited nonetheless! I love reading others' blog posts or watching others' videos that are full of personal recommendations. If I've been following along with them for long enough, then it feels just like a friend sharing favorites with me! I love that! So, my hope for this post is that you simply feel like you're sitting down with me as we chat about all things makeup today. :) I've recently been reworking my whole makeup routine and I've discovered … [Read more...]
11 Habits That Make a Difference For Me
I sure love my routines. Are you like that, too? I get such comfort out of having predictable, cozy rhythms in my day.

After learning last fall that I'm going to have to control anxiety in my life, I think these habits and routines have brought me even more comfort! Additionally, routines like these help me to stay productive and not get overwhelmed! 11 Habits … [Read more...]
7 Simple Ways to Bring More Hygge Into Your Home
Have you heard about the concept of hygge yet? When I first learned of it, I remember turning to my husband and saying, That's it! THAT'S the word for what I love so much! I felt like I finally had come across the exact way to describe what I strive for in my mentality and my home. It was refreshing and comforting to finally have a term for it! In case you're new to the idea of hygge (pronounced more like hue-gah or sometimes hoo-gah), it's a Danish/Scandinavian term that means a sense of … [Read more...]
My 25 Favorite Amazon Purchases in 2018
Ah, Amazon. It's one of my very favorite places to buy things! There are some items I just won't purchase from Amazon because they end up being overpriced or not top-notch quality, but for the most part, Amazon is where I turn to when I'm looking for something. We live over an hour's drive away from a Target and 35 minutes from a Walmart. Some days, I make the trek with my one-year-old in tow, but I have to plan for that kind of outing and have the energy for it, haha. :) Therefore, a lot of … [Read more...]
Sophie’s Favorite Books At 14 Months
My husband and I absolutely love reading, although I'd have to say that Bjorn reads way more than I do! (While both of us are the can't-say-no-to-buying-books, read-in-bed-in-the-evening types of people, Bjorn takes it a step further and can be found listening to audio books all the time, too - while farming in the tractor, while driving to work, while he does the dishes, and more!) Needless to say, we own hundreds of books and our one-year-old has her own awesome collection starting as well! … [Read more...]

Why You Should Consider Writing a Christmas Letter This Year
One of my very favorite parts of this season is when our minds turn to holiday cards! I just adore sending and receiving Christmas cards. Honestly, getting a Christmas card in the mail makes my day every single time! (So, no worries there - know that if you send me a card, it's appreciated!) Every year, I tape up the cards we receive on the big white closet doors in our kitchen. It's so fun spending the weeks that lead up to Christmas seeing our friends and family smiling at us from their cards, … [Read more...]
