The halls are decked at our house! I added a little Christmas to each room this year which is quite a bit more than what I typically do. Putting up my decorations this year I discovered that I’m definitely a “more is more” person when it comes to Christmas — I could spend days doing this! Luckily I’ve also had the chance to help out a few clients and family members with their decor so I’m sure to get my fill.

There will be a holiday home tour of our house here on the blog next week, so check back for that!

We took some quick family pictures a few weeks back in the nature preserve near our house. When I look at the photos I can’t even believe that it’s our family sometimes! It feels like we’ve been in a time warp that last 6 years or so. These kiddos have made the past few years all the more sweet & I’m so grateful to be their momma.


We’ve been fully enjoying our finished bathroom for the past two weeks — a much needed reward after working on it for so long! One night all of the kids were in the shower just playing in the water and Ty said, “this makes it all worth it.”

I linked up all of the different garlands & ribbons I used for my gifts and Christmas decorating this year. So far they’re all still available – so jump on ordering a few if you’ve been thinking about it!


Happy Friday, friends —

Lauren

I rearranged the back patio a bit and I’m loving how it feels. Just a little reminder that it doesn’t take big bucks or an overhaul for something to feel fresh again!

There is a beauty and ease that comes with life by There is a beauty and ease that comes with life by the sea, whether it be on northern or southern shores. Seashells are a quintessential beauty that are worn by living creatures, eventually discarded for us to enjoy or broken down to become one with the earth. They’re a reminder of the beauty of life and how powerful nature can be. And because of that, I think they’re a perfect addition to any room – no matter where you live!

We started planning and renovating this space abou We started planning and renovating this space about two years ago and I have a few takeaways now that we’ve lived with it:
- so glad we fit as much shelving into this space as possible
- storing our microwave in here is 👌
- I toyed with the idea of adding an ice maker in here…kinda wish I would have
- the wallpaper was the best splurge
- removing walls isn’t always the answer (we split a hallway in two to create this space)

You can read all about this project on the blog! Link in bio 🫶
