A Day At a Time
This whole adulting thing is so much harder and more overwhelming than I ever imagined, but it’s also so much better. I get down on myself a lot: I’m not thin enough, I’m not a good enough wife to K, I don’t spend enough time with our dogs, I’m not patient enough, we’re too busy, […]
Our Kind of Wonderful – Behind the Scenes
From a purely social media standpoint, it looks like our life is awesome, and we have it all together. Social media can be so deceiving, and you only see what I want you to see. Let’s be real here, my house is NEVER that clean, except on days when Chloe comes by to take our […]
Thankful
I’m not going to lie, I usually roll my eyes and quickly scroll past the thankfulness posts I see in November/December, and I’ve never done one before. But, this year, with everything we’ve been through and how we’ve been able to make things work I’m a lot more conscience about how much we do […]
Lunch Notes

Well, I did marry K, and with him came this heart condition, one that, should we have children, they have a 50/50 chance […]
Marriage: They Never Said It Would Be This….
They never said marriage would be this: hard, frustrating, amazing, fun, wonderful, stressful, exhausting, full of compromises, rewarding, etc. When I met K (the husband) marriage was the furthest thing from my mind. To be honest, I wasn’t sure I ever wanted to get married, and it freaked me out so much that my friends […]
Meet Marlee
My dream is to one day run a rescue for dogs. Financially it’s one of those dreams that will probably never become a reality, but until then, we’ve decided to open up our home to fosters. Not only do we get to help out other dogs, but ours learn better how to socialize, and we […]
My Dogs are Cuter than Yours
There’s really nothing more to say. They are adorable, Chloe did a phenomenal job on this video, and I just, gah, we have a pretty amazing life.
