Yes, you read it right. We’re doin’ a book club, y’all! Like I mentioned in this post, I’ve been brewing on this idea for awhile and I think I finally found a book that is fitting for our RH community: Cozy Minimalist Home by Myquillyn Smith. The description on the back of the book pulled …

Two-Night Anniversary Getaway to Louisville
Earlier in September, Mike took a quick two-night getaway to Louisville for our first wedding anniversary. It was the rainy three days of 70-degree weather sandwiched between 90-degree days, but let me tell you – that didn’t rain on our parade! 😉 We had the best time and would highly recommend Louisville if you’re looking …
6 Ideas for Welcoming Your Overnight Guest
A few weeks ago, my dear friend came to visit us. It was only for 24 hours, but oh was it sweet! We’ve been friends since we were 15, have lived in different states since we were 18, but remain the closest of friends – I’m so thankful! Over the years, we’ve visited each other …

Vacation Roundup Part 1: Seattle
Vacation. Ah, the week each year that you get to relax and enjoy and (hopefully) unplug from the everyday. This may have been our favorite vacation yet. Which I guess isn’t saying too much since we’ve only known each other for a little under 3 years. But still. It was amazing. We’ve been pretty silent …

Rich History, New Life: The History of Our Home
In 2015 I had a unique opportunity to be part of the design process of a home restoration that turned into the rental home I’d be living in. It happened to be a home on a lovely street in the town I loved and next door to a new friend (now a dear friend)! Within …
