UPDATED ROOM BELOW 🙂 Hi! I hope you’re having a nice relaxing weekend! When we first moved in to our house we didn’t have very much furniture. The house came with blinds that didn’t match within the same room. Meaning in a single room there were multiple styles and colors of blinds. The blinds in…

Mint White Chocolate Body Butter with Magnesium
I don’t know what it is this summer, but I’ve been battling such dry skin, especially my hands and feet. Also my feet and legs twitch at night if I haven’t had enough magnesium. I decided the remedy for both of these issues was a homemade magnesium body butter! So I whipped up this Mint…
Essential Oils Roller Bottles for Cough & Congestion
With fall coming, and school starting, it’s the perfect time to share my essential oils roller bottle recipes for cough and congestion! Be prepared instead of scrambling once they’re already sick! My kids range from 7 to 16, and none of them have ever had to use any cold medicine of any kind! We diffuse…
Sun Cover and Vitamin D
We began seeing Ashley’s current doctor in about 2008. One of the first things she told me was to make sure that Ashley (and all of us for that matter) get sun every day. She advised 20 minutes of sun a day if we tolerated it without burning. A strange request for a doctor to…

Kitchen Renovation Before & After Photos
I’m a little embarrassed at how long it’s taken us to do this kitchen renovation. And to be perfectly honest, it’s not even entirely finished. I still have to paint the back of the cabinets, and polish the pine boards (the open shelving), and I know I’m forgetting some other unfinished bits. But what can…
CBD oil surprise
It’s been almost a year since my kids and I started using CBD oil (hemp oil which does not contain THC). Read my first post on CBD oil HERE. I started taking the oil for my severe panic attacks, but as you can see from these photos, it’s done so much more than just…
How Ashley Changed My Life
(Most January’s I try to share an update on Ashley. This year I thought I would share how Ashley changed my life, and how she can inspire others to do the same. Here we go…) I recently made the statement that gratitude is not about being happy when things are good, it’s about being happy…
how to clean a stained mug
Where my tea and coffee drinkers at?! Raise your hand! 🙋 I drink both. I love mint tea, rooibos, and chai, and I love my organic decaf coffee. Of course my coffee has to be decaffeinated without chemicals. If it doesn’t say “organic water processed decaf”, then it’s decaffeinated with chemicals. One of my favorite brands…
