5 Things I Learned In My 30th Year

Honestly, what a time to be alive. My 30th year was full blown insanity. Filled with all the fun, so much travel, incredible new experiences, and a global pandemic one will surely never forget. This year, I’ve learned a lot about myself, my people, my passions, and truly how much I live for a good list.

DIY Adirondack Chairs

Can we pause for a moment of silence and reflection on how wildly expensive quality patio furniture actually is? Like wut?? After an entire year of shopping turned doodling and some not-so-subtle hinting, it was time to get my handyman involved.

Travel Diaries: Charleston, SC

I love adventuring, exploring new places and creating an itinerary around meal time. I am fortunate enough to travel to fun new places for work, err well under normal circumstances anyway. Last fall, I packed my slightly overweight bag for a 15 day coast to coast trip - first stop, Charleston, South Carolina!

DIY End Tables

I had all but given up hope until Caleb convinced me that we already had all of the materials on hand to make our own. Using wood scraps from the dining room table, and leftover metal tubing from the light fixture, wait, wut?

10 Must Have Game Night Games

Truth be told, game night around these parts is an art form. We like to play hard, eat all the things, play some more, eat dessert, and if we’re lucky enough, we keep playing until it’s time to eat again. You know… #balance

DIY Flag Stand

My grandmother Frankie, or Mimi if you will, had this hysterical porcelain goose that stood watch near her front door. It had a wardrobe full of interchangeable outfits kept on hangers in the coat closet nearby. Much like my Mimi, I also have an obsession with front door accessories - but mine are flower bed flags. *cue Dr. Sheldon Cooper presents: fun with flags*

Rustic Clock Refresh

I found this clock on clearance at my beloved At Home, because one of the hands was broken. For a whopping deal at 80% off, I paid my $24 and took off running out of the store in case the security guard tried to come after me for what seemed like decoration robbery.

DIY No Sew Curtains

I can’t be alone when I make this statement: window coverings are by far are my least favorite interior design activity. Finding just the right set is no easy feat: the color, the texture, the length, the curtain rod, the curtain hooks - just eww.

Oh, Darling! Let’s talk skincare!

Let me start by saying, I absolutely do not enjoy doing my makeup. My level of effort could be described as doing just enough to not scare away other humans should they come within a 10 foot radius. My skincare regimen though? It’s on a poppin, and my skin is loving all this extra breathing room! Dare I say I have a Benjamin Button situation happening? Could it be, am I actually aging in reverse?

Travel Diaries: Puerto Vallarta

We landed in Puerto Vallarta, and a private black car service took us to the resort. Um hello, is this how the other half lives? We felt a little out of our league - kind of like showing up at a champagne soiree with a case of natty light.

Oh, Darling! Let me tell you about my Peloton

I am addicted to this piece of machinery, and will absolutely tell anyone who will listen how magnificent it truly is. Remember Napoleon Dynamite’s Uncle Rico? “Hey, y’all wanna see my video?” This is me, except “Hey, y’all wanna see my Peloton?”

Cinco de Mayo: the best queso + marg recipes

Let’s be clear about something real quick. As a queso aficionado myself, I can wholeheartedly say that I absolutely do not need a reason to eat queso, but with open arms, welcome any and every opportunity to enjoy liquid gold, free of judgement.

Our First Home: Operation Renovation

We’d been married all of four months when we bought our first house. Given the white hot real estate market at the time, we should’ve taken the hint that this house and the 45 days it had sat on the market was not a good sign. But in true Caleb & Jordan fashion, it was our mission to make it better than how we found it.
