"Keep close to Nature's heart... and break clear away, once in awhile, and climb a mountain or spend a week in the woods. Wash your spirit clean." -John Muir Andrew and I are spending the day in Acadia National Park today so it seemed like a great time to talk about spending time in nature. … Continue reading Keep Close To Nature’s Heart
Happy Friday! We are heading to Maine today and are both SO excited! We have been talking about wanting to visit Maine since the first day we met-just a little over 6 years ago-and now we are going for the first time as a married couple! Crazy how life works! I can't wait to share … Continue reading Living Lately No. 24
Fall has always been my favorite season even as a child. I remember my mom would curate the perfect front door décor with hay bales, corn stalks and pumpkins galore. Our house would be filled with the scent of fall candles or whichever delicious fall treat my mom was baking that week (her pumpkin bars … Continue reading Why You Should Take a Foliage Trip
This time of the year everyone is obsessed with "pumpkin spice everything". Except for me. To be honest I really don't care for pumpkin spice flavored treats. Nope, not even a Pumpkin Spice Latte from Starbucks. I love my real pumpkin treats though, like pumpkin bread and pumpkin pie, those I can't get enough of. … Continue reading Caramel Apple Cider

Happy Friday! I am very much looking forward to this weekend. We had a rather busy previous weekend/week so hopefully the next few days will be a good time to slow down and catch up. This past week as felt so heavy and emotional... if that makes any sense. I am looking forward to what … Continue reading Living Lately No. 23

We originally made plans to go over a week ago but it ended up being 90 degrees that day (no thank you!). So we decided to try for the … Continue reading Apple Picking Excursion
Every year I envision having a beautifully curated front porch full of fall decor. It never quite works out this way no matter how hard I try so this year I went in wanting to keep it simple and understated. We don't exactly have the grand front porch that I somehow always end up thinking … Continue reading A Fall Front Porch
Happy Friday! After a ridiculously warm weekend, the past few days have finally felt a little more like fall. Since we didn't make it to the apple orchard last weekend due to the heat, we will be going this weekend and also celebrating Andrew's birthday! It will be a busy weekend with lots to look … Continue reading Living Lately No. 22

When we first made these plans it was supposed to be 70 degrees out which seemed like the perfect fall day for apple picking. As the weekend grew closer the forecast changed to 90 … Continue reading Picking Out Our Fall Decor
