They say April showers bring May flowers, but it seemed for us that April showers just brought more May showers. Our old house was surrounded by tall trees and our gutters would constantly get clogged with leaves and forest gunk until we installed EasyOn Gutter Guard. We had such great success with the gutter guard…

CLEANING OUR SIDING | MOLD ARMOR REVIEW
The siding on the backside of our house never gets sun and tends to get really grimy with dust, tree pollen, and who knows what else. Shade to spread and organic matter to eat is all mold and mildew need to be happy. This year we let the grime get kind of out of hand…
RESTORING STAINED GROUT | EASY DIY
I cannot tell you how GOOD it feels so good to be back with another easy DIY! So much has happened since January, but also not a whole lot has been accomplished.

AFFORDABLE KITCHEN ORGANIZERS | AMAZON FINDS
Organizing is really “on trend” right now, which is kind of my dream come true. Bins, baskets, drawers… These are a few of my favorite things.

OUR FAVORITE NURSERY ITEMS THAT LAST THROUGH TODDLER YEARS
It feels like just yesterday I was sitting here writing about C’s nursery transformation. But now that C has turned 2, things are changing big time in his room! While a lot of baby things are moving next door to the new nursery, there are a few things that we wouldn’t dream of moving because…
WATERPROOFING OUR BASEMENT | INSTALLING DRAINS AND A SUMP PUMP
When we took out two ginormous trees in our front yard, we knew there might be *some* moisture problems in the basement. To say we underestimated how much those trees were drinking would be an understatement. For three years we had water seeping into our basement every time it rained. It was pretty bad the…
