Recently, I was rereading my 2019 goals for this year and paused to reflect on my health goal this year -- "Fuel my body with good food and strengthen myself, physically and mentally." I don't know about you, but I hate to admit that I think I've fallen a bit off the wagon on this goal … Continue reading 8 Ways to Maintain a Healthy Lifestyle
Happy Halloween y'all!! I'm not a huge Halloween fan, but I do like any reason to celebrate! After Jody and I first got married, we made a deal that if I watch 31 days of Halloween movies with him, he has to watch Christmas movies with me (including Hallmark!). We wanted to share in the … Continue reading Get Your Spook On
As I mentioned in my previous post, summer already seems like it has flown by and it has really just begun! We are only going on week two of summertime in the Cox household since returning from our Italian getaway last Monday and it's already the second week in July! In fact, I saw that … Continue reading Summer Fun List
Last weekend, Jody and I spent part of our weekend camping at a state park for the first time together. I had gone camping with my family when I was little, but it has been years since we've been so admittedly, I was a little nervous about how this was going to go. We aren't the … Continue reading Camping Weekend
As I sit here writing my goals for the month of May, I can't help but check the calendar to make sure April is actually over since I feel like I had just set these goals! Even today, a full week into May and I'm still not convinced (I also had to go back and … Continue reading May Goals
About a week ago, we had our first taste of summer with two days of temperatures in the 80's. After originally planning to go hiking that weekend, Jody and I decided to head to the beach instead to enjoy an afternoon in the sun. Knowing that the breeze off the ocean would still be cool, … Continue reading Saturday Strolls
One of the things I have really enjoyed over the past year is discovering new recipes. As much as I love some of my staple go-to's (ahem, quiche), planning for new recipes keeps dinners interesting and keeps us out of the rut of eating the same things week to week. I think a little bit … Continue reading February’s New Recipes
Happy Friday! It has been while since I've done another Friday Favorites post, so I thought this dreary day would be perfect to bring a little brightness to this corner of the internet. February is the perfect time of the year to try new products, recipes or designs for your home. As the winter is … Continue reading Friday Favorites
I'm pretty confident that the day that I take down my Christmas decorations is singlehandedly the worst day of the year. The house seems so empty, the walls seem bare, and the railings that I don't notice for 11 months out of the year seem especially sad. It is just depressing to look at remembering … Continue reading Winter Decor after the Holidays
What a wonderful, beautiful, crazy, emotional year. So so many good things happened this year, as well as some not so fun, but this definitely has been a year that has been completely full of life. When I think back on this year, all I can think is "I'm so lucky". While looking ahead … Continue reading 2017 Year Review
