Date Night In: ‘Fancy’ Movie Night
With two little ones at home, going out is sometimes just not doable. It’s always nice when grandma and grandpa like to take them, but that’s not all the time! Our kiddos are pretty good at going to bed early, though (can I get an amen?!), and that makes it a bit easier to do! I thought I’d share one of our most recent date nights spent at home. While my hubby was doing part of the bedtime routine, I quickly set up the mood (unbeknownst to him!) You’ll never believe, but I used our girls’ tent building toys to set this up!

Our smaller trips have included Chicago, Indianapolis, Memphis, Tunica, Quad Cities, and St. Louis (We live in the lovely Midwest!) We now have two…

Date Your Spouse
“If you want a relationship that looks and feels like the most amazing thing on Earth, you need to treat it like it is the most amazing thing on Earth.” This .. all of this! Can I get an ‘Amen’?! While searching the internet, I came across this amazing quote, and boy oh boy are they words to live by! I have always felt it’s extremely important to cultivate your relationships. I come from a family of divorce, so I’ve seen first hand what happens when you don’t. One of the ways my hubby and I have treated our relationship like the most amazing thing on Earth is through spending…
