New on the Blog: Living a Life of Moderation. As order is brought from chaos, our families flourish a bit more today. I heard this quote in passing a few months ago and it stuck with me (I wrote it down so I wouldn't forget). I've thought about the concept of a "flourishing family" often since that day, and although an organized home and a simpler schedule aren't the only ways to help our families thrive, they are great starting points! My hope is that with every email and blog post I share, I'm equipping you with at least one small tip, tool, idea, recipe, or "ah-ha" moment that will bring more order to your home and life... and as a result, allow your family to flourish a bit more today! Simple Food. We love this easy, throw-together Italian Chopped Salad. Many of the ingredients are pantry staples, the presentation is so pretty, and it's a great way to use up garden-fresh cucumbers and tomatoes! Get my recipe --> Easy Italian Chopped Salad. Organized Home. Is summer humidity giving your towels a musty smell? You can quickly eliminate that odor with all-natural ingredients you probably already have in the house! Learn more --> How to Clean Stinky Towels. Intentional Living. For years and years, my motto has been "all things in moderation". In fact, striving for moderation has been a key factor in reducing chaos and bringing order to our home, our family, and our life. Today on the blog, I put together a list of resources that have helped our family... and will hopefully help yours too! Keep reading --> Living a Life of Moderation. In other news... HAPPY BIRTHDAY JAMES! We enjoyed celebrating James last week. He milked the day for all it was worth -- donuts for breakfast, Rebounderz in the morning, a special lunch with Dave, swimming all afternoon, then grandparents over for his chosen birthday meal (long spaghetti noodles with various sauces), chocolate cake, and presents! FREE AUDIOBOOKS! Now through the end of the month, all Amazon Prime members can sign up for a FREE 3-month trial for Audible. This is one of my favorite things and I always sign up for it every year. NOTE: If you're not currently an Amazon Prime member, I have a free 30-day trial code for you too! DO YOU SHOP AT COSTCO? I'm often asked what I like to buy at Costco... so I figured I'd re-share my "Costco shopping list"! The only thing I no longer buy is diapers... otherwise, the list is still very accurate. A SUMMER BLOGGING BREAK: It's that time again -- time for me to take a few weeks off from the internet! I'll be back in mid-to-late August, hopefully with an updated tour of our backyard and pool/deck area! In the meantime, there's plenty of content for you over on the blog (or maybe my break will inspire YOU to take an internet break too!) Blessings, ~ Andrea p.s. Have you purchased school supplies yet? I just can't bring myself to do it until at least August! |
