If you have moved 5 times within the last 5 years raise your hand…*slowly raises hand*. It is safe to say we have had our fair share of moving boxes and uhaul trucks in the past few years. Between two cross country moves (NY-AZ) (AZ-TN), one in-state move and one close state to state move(TN-IN) it is safe to say …

I think I am slowly reaching the part of adulthood where you realize you need to shop very early for holidays or else every themed item is sold out within three weeks of its shelf life. It’s always December 26th when Valentine’s day items are put out on the shelves and I always think I have so much time. I …

I love Valentines Day! I have with held myself from putting out decorations yet but I most certainly will be buying some pink flowers in the near future! Ever since becoming a mom I love to make Valentine’s Day super special and fancy for my little girl. We have done a few different things for Valentines Day with her. One …

Back in March my little family and I quickly packed up our 2 bedroom downtown Nashville apartment and with the help of my in-laws quickly drove to Indiana where our new house had been built. When I say quickly pack, I mean I got everything packed in about one day and we loaded up. It wasn’t an easy load up …

Today I enter a new decade, my thirties! I have to say that I have had the best 20s! I have been given so many blessings these past ten years and have been given great opportunities during my 20s. I have just loved them. It is a little bittersweet leaving this decade that has brought me so much happiness but …

I read a quote the other day that really stopped me in my tracks and made me think. The quote by Tim Keller read, “It’s one thing to be grateful. It’s another to give thanks. Gratitude is what you feel. Thanksgiving is what you do.” Even though every Thanksgiving we make sure our menus are right and our table has …

These are the sweetest gifts for preschool aged kiddos. I have a little girl so its easy for me to gear things more in that direction, but I’ll try to ask some mom friends about more gifts too. We have all of these gifts except this particular kitchen and I can say each of these items are well used in …

Give me all the holiday-themed things and I’ll be happy! I love making things festive and now I get to make it even more festive with Christmas toys. My daughter loves these sweet Christmas toys and they make our holiday play so special. Leading up to Christmas I will take these toys out slowly so we can really enjoy each …

This is our first thanksgiving in our new house! I love our house so much and am looking forward to creating the sweetest memories. With how wild 2020 is I really am so happy we moved in just in time to quarantine here. So, safe to say we really haven’t left this house much! I wanted to have a really …

It’s Halloween week! Honestly, growing up and into my adult years Halloween has never been my favorite. I’m pretty sure I stopped dressing up in the 4th grade and I never saw much fun of Halloween even as I got older. I think 9 year old Jayni was the last to put on a Halloween costume. I’d much rather be …
