Several weeks ago I was on a quest to start a few updates and makeovers in our house. This included, painting our four season porch (oh my stars that was so hard, post on that later), adding a shiplap accent wall in our dining room, a makeover to our master bath, and of course, the star of the show, our main level half bath makeover. And if you’re thinking “hmm, sounds like she bit off more than she could chew” you are not wrong. Here’s the deal, I am an all or nothing kind of gal. If we are going […] The post Half Bath Makeover appeared first on A D V E N T U R E S O F A N G ..read more

Well folks, we made it to December 2020. I am thinking right about now most of you have done a home remodel project, organized everything you can think of, and baked all the things. We have been put in a position where we need to spend more and more time inside, at home, with our loved ones. I can imagine that some of you, those with school aged children especially, are climbing the walls at this point. Have no fear. I am here to deliver another project to keep you entertained for one more afternoon with an easy DIY Tassel […] The post DIY Tassel Garland appeared first on A D V E N T U R E S O ..read more

Can you even believe that Thanksgiving is just a couple weeks away? I don’t even know what to expect for the holidays this year. It sounds like smaller gatherings and more time at home is what is in store. To me, that sounds like the perfect opportunity to gussy up your house and be as festive as you can. I think you should host the heck out of your closest relatives and really make the holiday special. And I am here to tell you, you don’t have to spend a lot to pull off a gorgeous dining room with a […] The post Thanksgiving Table Scape + DIY Napkins appeared first on A D V E N T U R E S O F ..read more

Back in August Daniel and I had the opportunity to go to Rocky Mountain National Park on a one week RV trip with his entire family. Something like this isn’t totally out of the ordinary for us. But this time, we had peewee. For this endeavor we had the unique challenge of bringing along our six week old baby. And as if that wasn’t spicy enough, we decided to share an RV with Daniel’s sister, her husband, and their four children. Maybe squeezing nine people into an RV, most of which are your in-laws, doesn’t sound like your idea of […] The post RV Camping with a Newborn appeared first on A D V ..read more

Fall is hands down my favorite time of year to decorate. Somehow, little white pumpkins and fall scented candles have the capacity to flip on the cozy switch in the entire home. What’s ironic is even though fall is my favorite time to transform the decor in my house, I only have one tote in storage to contain all the season specific decor – compare this to the six totes I store for Christmas. The quantity may be small but the impact is mighty. With this one little tote of fall decor I am able to completely transition my main […] The post 3 Easy Ways to Decorate for Fall appeared first on A D V ..read more

This post contains affiliate links. If you are a mama that is nursing or is planning to nurse your babies I give you a virtual round of applause. Nursing is such a commitment and it really does a number on our lovely lady lumps. Now that I have been in the mom game for a whopping 2.5 months I feel qualified to share with you some of my breastfeeding wisdom (LOL). Fortunately, nursing Weston has gone really smooth overall with the help of a few nursing essentials. He latched well early on and started packing on the weight ever since.

I can’t even believe I have already been a mom for 8 weeks. I type this as my precious babe naps on my lap. Weston Richard Felt made his grand entrance on July, 9 2020 weighing 7.4lbs and 19 inches long via a successful natural birth. We are so smitten with our baby boy. I was so sure I was having a girl that it actually took me a few days to fully comprehend that he came out a boy! His birth was surreal and far from what I imagined and planned for. Also something I won’t soon be forgetting […] The post Natural Birth Story appeared first on A D V E N T U R E S O F A N G ..read more

Howdy folks, I have missed you! I have been a little preoccupied growing this human while our small business has totally taken off the last couple of months. I have been training in new office gals to replace me so that Daniel and I feel confident leaving our business in their hands while I stay at home with the babe full-time. They have been totally killing it and I have all the confidence in the world in them. All good things going on but I have had zero creative juices left over lately to write and share updates with you. […] The post Neutral Nursery Reveal appeared first on A D V E N T U R ..read more

I have been hanging out in the third trimester for a few weeks now and thought I would share some updates with how the pregnancy has evolved since this post. I am currently 31 weeks pregnant. And for those of you who don’t know what all the weeks mean (‘cuz I didn’t before all this), I am in my 7th month and there are 40 weeks total for a full-term pregnancy. So in just a couple months we get to meet our bambino! Overall, I have been feeling great. I don’t have any food aversions, no more nausea, and have […] The post Third Trimester Pregnancy Update appeared first on A D V E N T U R E S O F A ..read more

I can’t believe it, but Daniel and I have already been in our new home for eight months! This time has flown by but at the same time it feels like we have been here all along. The closing on our old house and our new house happened on an expedited timetable of one month (more details in this post). One month separated the time we made an offer to the time we got the keys to the new place. No pressure, right? Oh, ps, during that time we were on a one-week vacation, I was a bridesmaid in a […] The post 5 Tips for an Organized Move appeared first on A D V E N T U R E S O F A N G ..read more
