Fall time on 30A. It's a favorite for our family. Where the white crystal, powder-like sand meets the Emerald Coast. There's nothing quite like it. For us, it's become a fall tradition to visit Santa Rosa Beach because we love it so much. Santa Rosa Beach is by far our favorite place to visit on 30A. You don't get the business and crowded feel that Seaside and Rosemary Beach has. Santa Rosa is a laid back beach town with a family feel. There isn't any riffraff and you pretty much have ...

3 Reasons to Vacation on 30A & a ResortQuest Review
Every year, we look forward to these two weeks all year long. Taking a vacation on 30A has become a family favorite. Why? You're never far from the beach: Whether you are staying on the beach or in a community near the beach, you're always close to the blue water and soft, crystal sand. The water & sand: The water is a crystal clear color and the sand is so soft, you're constantly running it through your toes. The powdery type sand is a perfect white! I don't know of any other ...
DIY Chippy White Antique Headboard
Chippy white paint. I just love to see things with chippy paint in a home. We've had a big, heavy, 4 poster wooden bed in our room for almost 6 years. It's a beautiful bed but I've never been too happy with the way it looks in our master bedroom. Last week, we finally took the bed down because it was making the room feel so cramped and dark. I would walk in our master bedroom and immediately would want to rearrange or get rid of things because it looked too dark and crowded. We figured it was ...
Fall Jord Wood Watch Review & Giveaway
Fall will be here soon and I'm already getting out a few of my favorite fall pieces in my wardrobe. A Jord Wood Watch is a part of my fall wardrobe. Have you seen these wood watches?

22 Things to Keep Your Preschooler Busy While Teaching the Older Ones
The question we hear the most when people hear that we homeschool our kids is, "What do you do to keep your preschooler busy while teaching the older ones?" The answer? We use a lot of different things, and each day is something different. I try to keep it fun and different to where they don't get bored with the same activity. I have a schedule (because of course, that is what list-makers like myself do). For example: Monday's they can watch a preschool show (Super Why, Word World, Sid the ...
Boxed: Online Wholesale Shopping
Have you heard of Boxed? It's my new favorite thing. I'm a sucker for wholesale stores. Think Costco and Sams, although my favorite is Costco. We go weekly and stock up.

Bulk sizes of your favorite household items, up to 80% off retail + free shipping on orders over $50, a curated selection of only the best products available, and so much more! ...
Our 2016/2017 Homeschool Curriculum Choice
Homeschool curriculum. It's that time of year when homeschool parents ask each other what curriculum they ended up with. We have been back "in session" for almost three weeks now. It feels good to be back in our routine and moving forward in the new school year. Our homeschool curriculum this year, is by far our favorite! This year, we chose to do a hodge lodge of homeschool curriculum. Some of it we have previously used in the past, some of it is new. All of it we purchased at the Teach ...
Wake Foot Sanctuary & Spa (review & giveaway)
Asheville is one of our favorite places to visit for a long weekend getaway. Our family has a cabin up in the mountains near there, so anytime we can get away, thats usually the first place we head. This past weekend, I had a girls trip to Asheville with a dear friend and it was so relaxing! No one was asking me for a snack or asking to stay up later. It was great to enjoy sleeping in and not having a care in the world. I found Wake Foot Sanctuary online a few days before our trip and ...
