Ella was invited to play soccer with a team of girls from different clubs in Utah against professional U17 girls in Italy. It was a really neat experience for her and our entire family. We had never been to Italy, and honestly don't know when we would have made the trip if not for this scheduled event. We made the most of the trip and spent about two weeks in Italy. We went to Rome, Venice, Cinque Terre and Verona. After that experience we can't wait to go back and see more!! Sharing everywhere we went, stayed, and ate! Get ready for photo overload after all the information! First, I got ... Read More

Our Drink Room Updates and If We Would Change Anything
Remember when I shared this room right after we moved in? I wasn't sure what we were going to call this room, and I wasn't sure exactly how we would use it. I knew we would use it for drinks, since we have the ice maker and sink, but I thought I might use it for plant care because of the utility sink in here. After a year and a half living with it, we use this room as our Drink Room. Basically, where we fill our cups with the best pebble ice, purified water, supplements, or to grab a sparkling water from the fridge, and make a warm drink. Ready for a tour? I will also share a few things I ... Read More

All the Paint Colors in our Home and Wallpaper
I finally put all the paint colors in our Utah Home in one place! And I compiled my favorite paint from past projects at the end of this post. First let's chat chat about paint sheen. For ceiling sheen, I prefer flat. For trim and door sheen, I prefer semi-gloss. Lastly, for wall sheen, I prefer eggshell. In our current home we used A LOT of Farrow & Ball paint colors. I LOVE Farrow & Ball colors, and their actual paint is high-end and gorgeous. That being said, we hired a painter to paint our home and our cabinet designer painted our cabinets. I gave them the names and actual paint ... Read More

Drawer Organizing with The Home Edit Favorites
I hope I am not alone, and you have messy drawers in your home too?? I actually took a poll on instagram and 90% of you do, 10% of you are living our organized goals.

Ella’s Bathroom Open Shelves with Beadboard Wallpaper
Our girls have a Jack and Jill Bathroom. They each have their own vanity and they share the toilet and shower. It has worked out really great for the past 5 months we have lived here.

We finally got around to installing them and finishing her space. We even hung some beadboard wallpaper that looks like the real thing!
