Our small group friends! We celebrated one year of meeting (with an ugly sweater party) recently and I could not be more grateful Nathan and I overcame our hesitation and joined this group. It was the best decision we made last year, hands down. We feel more connected to our church, our relationship, and God. As far as discussions go we had a pretty laid-back summer and holiday season but are jumping full force into Mere Christianity in a few weeks! I’ve heard it’s heavy but I can’t wait to jump in.

If you follow me on Snapchat, you saw me meal-prepping my heart out for myself and Camden on Monday which was so necessary. We’ve been flying by the seat of our pants for the last month when it comes to meal times and I’m just so tired of feeling blah. I bought the Tone It Up Nutrition Plan several years ago and while it is pricey, they send out tons of clean-eating recipes and meal plans to “members” for life which is so helpful! I made these weird-sounding muffins made out of chick-peas, peanut butter, and maple syrup that are actually pretty yummy and a filling snack so if you want the recipe, send me and email. For Camden I made sweet potato + strawberry puree and these meatballs – YUM

Anything and everything out of the RTIC Tumbler (aka knockoff Yeti) I got for Christmas. Home made cranberry margaritas are on heavy repeat this time of year.

Last year I really tried to be intentional and only “follow” people who I felt like were real people, if that makes sense. I was so tired of basically seeing ads all day, every day in the form of someone’s “life.” I don’t know about you, but that is a slippery slope of coveting things I don’t need and just generally feeling bad about myself. There has to be a balance, right? Anyways, I feel like I’ve been really out of the loop since having Camden and not following many new people – who is your favorite person to follow on Bloglovin, Instagram, or Snapchat?

Trying to resolve the toy storage issue in our house. It was beginning to get out of control before Christmas and now it’s completely out of hand. So. Many. Toys. Any suggestions for stylish storage? We basically need it in every room. I really love the idea of something like this but I’m not sure we have the space.
