Introduction Post (the awkward content you never knew you wanted)

I’ve started this sentence at least a dozen times. In my head I just keep thinking “this is awkward” over and over again. As someone who doesn’t journal, let alone share long, witty posts across the interwebs… this is my awkward. I’m more comfortable on Instagram stories, where I can share quick 10 second peeks into our life. Better yet, I’m most comfortable binging Outlander or reading the entire Virgin River series 😉 However, this year (and one graduate marketing class later) has pushed me to finally start what I’ve thought about starting for the last year.

I’ve been sharing our life since 2017 on Instagram. And it’s been a journey–buying a house, finishing grad school, marrying my best friend, rescuing two dogs. Our house is probably the biggest journey. In case you haven’t seen the ‘before’s’ of our house… I present to you a smattering of teal, pink, and not so much my style.

I forgot to mention burgundy. The burgundy bathroom nightmares are made of. These are all the listing photos, and at this point, we’ve changed something in every room in our home. We’ve spent a few years picking up new tricks, trying out many DIYs, and learning to make this house a home. I love sharing our home, and I also love when people ask me for ideas of what to do in their house. So I’m taking the plunge, and sharing DIYs, home decorating, and lifestyle ideas that come straight from our regular lives. If you like decor, projects, recipes, clothes styling, and guest appearances from Ryan, then you’ve made it to the right place!

I’m no expert, but I’d love to share a piece of our life in a space more permanent than a 10 second Instagram story. So… here I am! I’ll be revisiting old projects and taking you along with new ones. I hope you’ll stick around for more awkward than ever before
