It's a tradition for our family to go to the tree farm and cut down our Christmas tree. It's hard to find a real tall tree, so this year Nick actually called different tree farms if they had 12ft or taller trees before heading there. We had that problem last ye[...]
What happened in 2017 was just surreal for us. We never thought in a million years we'd be having a Facebook Live series on the HGTV page or even get to work with well known companies/brands. I started our Instagram account the summer of 2016 to document how I[...]
It was my husband's 34th birthday on August 31st! 34 sure looks sexy on him (OW OW!!), and I gotta say, he makes life pretty freaking awesome! He is the most affectionate, hard working, funniest, hands on parent, will bend over backwards for you type of person.[...]
