A U D G E | monday round-up

Happy Monday y’all! It’s always bittersweet to see the weekends come and go, but instead of mourning the loss of that glorious two days let’s just roll up our sleeves and embrace this new week full on… whaddyasay? To make the transition less painful, here are a handful of things that we’re looking forward to and a couple that we’re remembering fondly… aaah. Here we go! 1 | W I L D  E X P L O R E…

C A S O N | showering baby liliana!

C A S O N | showering baby liliana!

Joanna, Kat, and I hosted a baby shower fiesta this past weekend. Our BFF for life, Holly, is expecting her first baby (GIRL!) in May. As some of you know, I’m kind of an event planning freak. (I mean that in the WORST way possible.) All the little details completely consume me and I go a little crazy. Poor Joanna and Kat always get roped into my crazy ideas. BUT if anyone deserves to have the…

A U D G E | bedtime battles: how i got my toddler to sleep

So if you are a parent and you’ve gone through the experience of bringing a newborn baby into your house for the first time ever, some of the following thoughts may have crossed your mind: “WHATAMIDOING OMGI’MSOTIRED I’MNEVERGOINGTOSLEEPAGAINNNNN” (written just so, because that’s kind of how you’re actually saying it in your mind.) And then that day magically comes where your baby decides,…

K A T | spaghetti squash pizza bake

K A T | spaghetti squash pizza bake

Cason and I tried spaghetti squash several months ago and it was a total dud. I was looking forward to the “noodle” like consistency and it turned out to be a soggy/wet mess. After much encouragement to give it another try (maybe I overcooked it or it was a bad squash) I bought another one! Cason found a spaghetti squash pizza recipe she wanted to try so we altered it a bit and created our very…

C A S O N | Balsamic Chicken with Roasted Veggies

Do y’all ever find yourselves in meal rut? Sometimes it feels like Kat and I rotate through the same meals and I’m just craving something different. While perusing Pinterest searching for new dinner ideas I stumbled on to this SkinnyTaste recipe and I knew we had to try it. It just screams spring. Roasted veggies and fresh herbs? Yes please! I altered Gina’s recipe a little (We used chicken…

J O A N N A | diy boxwood wreath

Believe it or not… I made this wreath for my front door. Of course, this was more out of a desire to save some major moolah than it was to be creative, but still… I made it! I have been eyeing boxwood wreaths for a while now, but I couldn’t bring myself to spend the $60-$90 on one, especially since I have TWO front doors. I already had two grapevine wreaths so this project only cost me about $30…

K A T | peanut butter banana ice cream

Can we talk about how much I love ice cream? Especially in the spring and summer when it’s warm and light outside for longer…gah, I’m getting excited just thinking about it! I remember every year for my birthday begging my mom to make me a batch of homemade because it was SO much better. Fast forward to present day when my doctor ruined everything and told me I was lactose intolerant. What a…

A U D G E | all the reads

A U D G E | all the reads

I’m feeling so scholarly these days. I’ve always loved reading, but now that we’re homeschooling I  feel like I’ve always got my nose in a book for some reason or another. So today’s blog post is featuring all the reads that I’ve been feeling lately, everything from children’s books, parenting/schooling, life stories, you name it, I’m reading it. So snuggle up in a cozy corner and get those pages…

J O A N N A | kale caesar salad + chicken

When kale first hit the scene I was hesitant… I was just fine with spinach and then all of a sudden the hipsters had to make kale the “new thing”. I wanted to be cool so I started putting it in my smoothies; I couldn’t taste it but I got all of the benefits, it was a win/win! Well, do I have news for you guys… as it turns out, I actually like kale! Fast food joints like Chick-Fil-A and Panera are…

C A S O N | etsy finds for spring

Are y’all basking in this amazing weather as much as I am?! As much as I just wanted to Netflix and chill on Sunday afternoon after the release of House of Cards…I just couldn’t. The outside was calling my name. WEIRD. This vitamin D must be going straight to my head. In honor of spring beginning in just a couple of weeks, I put together a list of my favorite Etsy finds for spring. Now get out…

K A T | new fave beauty products

K A T | new fave beauty products

I never EVER switch up my beauty routine. I often find that I’m in a beauty rut because I don’t make any changes. I fall in love with something (i.e. Trader Joe’s moisturizer) and am still using it 4 years later. I’m sure new and better products are out there but I’m too nervous to try any because I’m just not gifted when it comes to make-up. Well, get ready to be impressed because I have…

J O A N N A |flashback: it’s not my party

I recently had ANOTHER birthday… they just keep coming. I thought it would be fitting to share this post from a couple of birthday’s ago. It’s funny, I was obviously going through something not-so-great when I wrote this, but I couldn’t tell you now what it was. Just another reminder that time heals. I still look forward to Paul Tripp’s emails every Wednesday… This particular devotion will always…

J O A N N A | my little family

We recently had our first family vacation in San Juan, Puerto Rico! Technically, we were there because my husband had a conference for work, but it was Magdalene’s first trip to the beach so it was pretty special! The weather was great and our little girl loved the ocean. I played the role of typical first time mom when it came to sunscreen and protecting her from any bugs (and giant lizards!),…

A U D G E | ycswu friends: kacey + noonday collection

I met Kacey this past summer at our neighborhood park, and we became fast friends. We were both diving into the world of homeschooling together for the first time, navigating the waters of all that is toddlers and their feelings, and trying to find Jesus in the everyday grind. It was kind of weird how even though we were just getting to know each other, I felt like we were just picking up right…

J O A N N A : favorite skincare products

J O A N N A : favorite skincare products

As some of you may remember, I use the oil cleansing method to wash my face several times a week. I have always had the worst skin and this cleanse is like the holy grail of skincare. However, I still like to switch it up. There are times when I’m just exhausted, ready to fall into bed, and the whole routine seems unbearable. I also wonder if the cleanse is a little intense and maybe my face…
