In Family by Madison MayberryLeave a Comment

I talk a lot about improving our overall health in regards to what we eat and what we use on our bodies. But another area that our family has worked hard to improve in recent years is the quality of the air we breathe in our home. Over the last couple years I’ve read more and more about indoor air quality, and what we can do to improve our indoor air quality. According to the Consumer Product Safety Commission… “In … Read More

Holiday Home Refresh

In Family by Madison MayberryLeave a Comment

Maybe I’m jumping the gun, but at this point I don’t even care. The older I get, the earlier I enjoy decorating for Christmas. Like, this year I’m planning on decorating November 1st, which is right around the corner. I used to be SUCH a stickler for waiting until after Thanksgiving, but that only gives me a month to enjoy the cozy holiday feels, which doesn’t seem like long enough in my book! I’ve rounded up some favorites from Target … Read More

Holiday Gifts for Girls

In Family by Madison MayberryLeave a Comment

Call me crazy, but I’ve already been shopping for Christmas gifts for our kids. It helps the budget to spread items out over the course of a couple months, and helps me to think more strategically about what I want to get the kids rather than grabbing things last minute. Over the next few weeks I’m going to be sharing some gift lists for girls, boys and more so you can shop intentionally with me this year! YOTO PLAYERI got … Read More

In Family, Food & Recipes by Madison MayberryLeave a Comment

About a month and a half ago, a friend of my kept talking about making amazing lattes and coffee at home. She had been using Cometeer Coffee flash frozen coffee pods – small shots of espresso from specialty coffee roasters – to make lattes and cups of coffee (Americanos). I finally caved and ordered a subscription box. Typically I’m not a huge fan of subscription services, but I’m also a BIG fan of great coffee, so I decided to give … Read More

Our master bedroom has been something that I’ve wanted to refresh for a while now, and over the last few weeks I’ve been slowly working to make things over. I started with some inspiration from the photos below, which were … Read More

My Clean Skincare Routine

In Family, Fashion by Madison MayberryLeave a Comment

Years ago, I had a goal of developing a “big girl skincare routine.” It seemed silly to me when I said it out loud, but I longed to feel better in my skin and enjoy the products I was using. As I went through a series of miscarriages, I also became increasingly interested in making sure my skincare was clean and free of toxins, hormone disrupting ingredients and more. Over the years of partnering with Beautycounter, I’ve come to love … Read More

Easy Idea :: Kiddie Happy Hour Platter

In Family, Food & Recipes by Madison MayberryLeave a Comment

We’ve gotten into a bit of a summer rhythm of doing “kiddie happy hours” with snack plates pretty enough for adults but made for little eaters to enjoy. I’ve found that if I can get ahead of the hangry meltdowns things tend to go much better, but if I don’t plan ahead, my kids eat junk and fill up on foods that aren’t so healthy. My solution? Kiddie Happy Hour! Lately I’ve been lining a large baking sheet with parchment … Read More

I’ve gotten SO basic with … Read More
