My heart is so insanely full of love and gratitude

My heart is so insanely full of love and gratitude for all of the people who helped me celebrate my birthday this year 🥹🎂🥳 It’s a crazy wonderful feeling when (without asking) you are gifted your very favorite things: live music, amazing food, and quality time with those who matter most 💕 I’m going to be thinking about this birthday for a long time to come 🥰

EGGCELLENT SCRAMBLED EGG HOW-TO! My closed capti

EGGCELLENT SCRAMBLED EGG HOW-TO!

My closed captions weren’t working in the video, so here ya go:

🥚 Rather than mixing your raw eggs in a bowl before adding them to a pan, I like to crack my eggs into some butter and let the whites start to set a little bit before I put my spatula into scramble them. That’s it. It’s never failed me and they come out looking picture. Perfect every. single. time.
🥚 Top with some yummy raw cheddar (I like @raw_farm_usa, it’s the only shredded cheese I’ve found without cellulose!)
🥚 Serve with some homemade sourdough and enjoy!

⚠️ Warning: do not try this at home 🤣🛑 T

⚠️ Warning: do not try this at home 🤣🛑 This is not the first time I’ve cut my own hair and it certainly will not be the last!!!

I told myself I “wouldn’t chop my hair until I got my arms more toned” and that is SUCH crap. I have little girls at home who are watching my every move and is that what I would want to teach them?! Absolutely not.

Life is so short; Do the things you want to do NOW 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

My first attempt at baking sourdough from scratch!

My first attempt at baking sourdough from scratch!!!! Not the worst I could have done, but I learned a lot very quickly 🙈 Seriously, how did people do this stuff before the internet existed to help troubleshoot?!

You’ve heard of “If You Give A Mouse A Cookie”, right? Well it turns out that if you give your sister a flight and a ticket to see Chris Stapleton, I might just remodel your dining room for you in return 😆 Song choice because I had some help from my sweet little niece and will never forget the fun memories that were made 🥰🥰🥰 Thank you for always trusting my vision; I love you endlessly @kaitlinwills808 ! 👯‍♀️

White is so boring!!! I’m being honest when I tell you that I cannot stop staring at this room now 😍 It feels like a cozy library or something and is exactly what the space needed. I’m inspired to do our bedroom now… stay tuned! 👀

Alright the time has finally come to try your hand

Alright the time has finally come to try your hand at French braiding 👏🏼 So throw on that new episode of Bluey and get your kid to be your guinea pig while you practice, practice, practice! It may look difficult at first, but I think I taught myself to do this on my American Girl doll when I was maybe 7? So I have faith in you to persevere! Just remember to keep 3 clean sections at all times as to not get lost with where you left off- the section that’s on TOP is always where you’re at when picking up new hair to combine. GOOD LUCK!!!!!!

DADS: No more messy ponytails on your girls, okay? Here is a suuuuper easy half up half down with a cute bow clip that can be subbed out for anything decorative: a cute scrunchie, a claw clip, a plain ribbon tied into a bow, etc.

If you’re having bow FOMO like I had been, you can shop this bow clip and more in my LTK! Link in bio! https://liketk.it/4DRju

ELEVATED (but super simple) PONYTAIL TIME 🙌🏼

ELEVATED (but super simple) PONYTAIL TIME 🙌🏼 Such an easy hack that has been the biggest game changer for me on those dirty hair days when you don’t have time to wash but still need to feel pulled together! How I remember this——> Just like Adam Sandler taught us, you loop it, you swoop it, then you pull about 25-30% of the ponytail hair to the front and leave it out until after your ponytail holder gets wrapped around enough times for it to be tight, then flip the hair over the top for INSTANT volume! Couldn’t be easier! 🤗

The hair tutorials are starting, ya’ll 🙌🏼🥳 I know I promised to start out with the French braid a while back, but it turns out that toddlers are kind of wiggly and don’t want to sit still, so we are starting out with little ol me 😆 This is how I’ve been curling my hair lately and I think it’s so fun, so I wanted to share it with you! ENJOY and tag me if you decide to try it out!!! 🧜🏻‍♀️
