After we had decided to sell our home and make the move back to Utah, I knew I wanted to make our return trip memorable. I had always wanted to take a cross country trip with the family and thought that this would be the perfect time! I was actually a bit hesitant on sharing my idea with Kevin, I didn't know if he would think the idea sounded crazy!! 60 hours driving in an RV with our 3 kids and puppy? That could scare anyone. Luckily he doesn't scare easily. He was onboard. I share in this post all the stops we made, how much it cost, if we would do it again and more!!!! Well, little ... Read More

Part 2- 10 Things you could DITCH in your home

It made me think how disposable razors are something we should do without in our homes. Instead invest in a nicer razor that you only have to replace the blade every month. Plus Bille Razors are actually cute hanging on your shower wall! So let's dig in and share 10 ... Read More
