Apple recipes are my favorite. They are hard for me to turn down. If a restaurant dessert menu says the word apple I don't need to read anymore. I'll take it! I have shared my favorite Paleo Apple Crisp before, the one we make over and over. So today you are getting another easy apple recipe. The easiest bread recipe just got a little sweeter with some apples and cinnamon. You know my Mom's Famous Artisan Bead Recipe? We have shared 6 different mix-in's you can try and it needed an apple version. This actually turned out way better than I thought it would! My kids loved it. I joined up with ... Read More

Friday Favorites- Slowly adding Fall Decor
I wanted to share a quick message with you today that a sweet reader sent me after I shared some simple Fall decor updates I have been making to our home. "It's a good to remember that the stuff we already own can be "fixed" to be exactly what we need." That could mean a lot of different things. From painting a table we already have, to cleaning our homes, or simply adding a new pillow to our beds instead of thinking we need an entirely new bed or sofa! I am personally testing out and experimenting with my Fall Home Decor Trend predictions and slowly adding some little changes. For ... Read More
Friday Favorites- 10 Fall Home Decor Trends 2018
For Friday Favorites today I had to jump on sharing some Fall ideas. I took a poll in Instagram stories and 81% of you are ready for Fall! That surprised me! Fall decor doesn't mean go to the nearest home decor/hobby store and buy a bunch of faux pumpkins, signs, faux leaves etc. Or bringing up a container from the basement with a bunch of accessories that you add on top of what you already have. I searched online for common trends I noticed for Fall Home Decor this year- 2018. There is definitely a strong Fall Trend. And oh yes, it makes me very excited! What about you?? But not ready to ...

I am warning you now- I will be sharing some Christmas Ideas on Tuesday next week! (I know it is early, but I want to share earlier than latter to give you all ideas). So before Christmas takes over- here is a little bit more Fall in our Kitchen, maybe some Thanksgiving inspiration. I personally like a greenery and twinkle lights at Thanksgiving too!

If I could turn on a song for you while you read this blog post it would be Micheal Jacksons Thriller! Because that is my Halloween soundtrack!

Fall Table Setting- Using What You Have
I love a simple, easy table setting. A table setting with pieces that I already have, all mixed together to create a place everyone feels comfortable and special to be at our table. This table setting actually reminds me of my mom. She always clips sunflowers from the yard and has them on the table in vases she found at second hand stores. I know she influenced me on how I decorate today and for sure influenced the "use what you have" way of thinking. She is about focusing on connecting and loving on her guests than fussing over a big fancy table. She is the most caring person and the way she ... Read More

Fall Decor in our Family Room- Seasons of Home Series
Are you ready for a little Fall Decor now? It is officially Fall in my eyes. My girls walked in from school the other day and Ella, my oldest said "It feels like Fall in here, good job Mom!" (this Family Room is the first room they see off the bus). She just knows how to make her mom happy. I love that she said it "feels" rather than "looks". Fall is a feeling.

Let's get started! Our Family ... Read More
