Our playroom was one of my favorite spaces in our home when we moved in and it still is -- we spend a lot of time there as a family.

door mat (c/o shop josie b) O N E Confession time: I took over a month off at the gym and…everything was fine! Right before we went to Disney, I paused my gym membership since I would be missing at least half of the month (originally Kevin was traveling to Orlando sooner, but we postponed due to Irma).

Happy Friday! Hope y'all enjoy this week's post! O N E First things first --- let’s talk lashes. I’ve been posting a lot on instastories about my lashes and so many of you have asked me to share what I’m using because they’re so long and thick! If you recall, I had an eyelash extension disaster six months ago, leaving me with thin, broken, stubby ...
How You Can Have White in Your Home (Even with Kids) & Not Go Insane
scalloped duvet cover | banana leaf print linen pillows It never fails that when I post photos of our home on social media, I get the "how do you have XYZ in your house with kids?!" comments.

I've always been a fan of their classic ...
