One view of this nursery just isn’t enough😍 One view of this nursery just isn’t enough😍

We’re days away from meeting our little girl and if she’s anything like her parents we’re in big trouble! 

At least the room is cute.

We’re so ready for you baby girl! When we starte We’re so ready for you baby girl! When we started working in the nursery there was not a chance I thought it would be totally ready in time. Close? Sure. But finished? No way. 

We are so lucky to have so many people help us along the way (and for getting so many great deals on marketplace to bring this room together!) 

Now all we need is a little girl to use it!

I feel like we’ve done so much work to the house this year but when it’s almost all in one room, I’m realizing it doesn’t always look like it. 

With the nursery almost ready to go and baby girl coming any day, we can only begin to imagine the great things 2023 is going to have in store for us! 

Happy New Year everyone!

Thanks for sticking around and being a part of our story 💜

GAME CHANGER After years of making gingerbread h GAME CHANGER 

After years of making gingerbread houses and waiting the torturous overnight for the icing to dry we finally asked the question - why are we doing it this way?
 
Hot glue for the win! We saved the icing for decorating and the brownstones we’re ready for decorating immediately. 

Even Kevin who was a skeptical gingerbread traditionalist agrees… we’re never going back!

When I found this sleigh in the Target dollar sect When I found this sleigh in the Target dollar section, I knew it needed to be part of our holiday decor this year. Only problem? It needed a little something extra- queue for the stain! 

This updated sleigh is so cute and the perfect addition to our mantle. I found this pine cone filler and mini ornaments to complete the look!
