Help!!

We have a list of projects want to tackle this year but prioritizing is probably the hardest part and that’s where we are stuck. These floors are one of them. So I ask you guys, would you redo the floors first, or make new cabinet doors for the kitchen?

Coffee table makeover.... it definitely took a fe

Coffee table makeover....

it definitely took a few steps to get here. If you’ve been following along in our stories you know that we just weren’t digging all of the wood tones in this living room. We knew the easiest thing to change would be the coffee table. We were going for a grain showing stained look, but sometimes the vision just doesn’t work out like planned. We ended up painting it black and are so happy with our choice now that it’s in the room. I love how much depth it brings and how it ties together all of the other black accents in the space. What do you think? Do you like mixing woods?

Remember that time we took our upper cabinet doors

Remember that time we took our upper cabinet doors off to test out if we’d like open shelving. Well, we definitely want them! We also plan on sanding and Refinishing the floors at some point this year as a previous owner sanded them down but didn’t tell us that they hadn’t sealed them. So let’s consider this the before photo and hopefully by the end of the year I will be posting a gorgeous after shot. Happy Friday!

Admitting here right now that I was that person pre-kids that swore up and down we wouldn’t have plastic toys in our home. Turns out, they are the ones that entertain the kids the most, so when I find an epic one on a good sale I get it. I mean, who else loves a food truck like we love a food truck?

@buybuybabyca is having the Big Deal Baby Sale from now until the 18th! Get up to 30% off everything you need from gear to clothing for baby—so us parents can stock up on the things we need. Plus, their curbside pick-up is my new fave thing to keep my errands quick and efficient. #ad #buybuybabyca

Our coffee table makeover is failing miserably if you’ve been watching our stories. Just goes to show not everything works out as planned.
we have a new plan in the works and the next time you see this view our table will look a lot different 😉

Story time: Last spring, you might remember us ta

Story time:
Last spring, you might remember us talking about how we needed to replace the storm door on the outside of this door. We put in an order for a custom black full window storm door as this old house has weird size doors. It was to take 8 to 10 weeks to come in and by the time it got here mid November, The guy forgot to order it black.🙈🙈 we sent it away and after a lot of arguing back-and-forth on who’s fault it was we put in an order for a new version this time the right color. Unfortunately, with everyone renovating, it was a new date of 12-14 weeks for delivery.
This is my view from my kitchen table. This is where I sit and eat my breakfast, my lunch and my supper. With all this time waiting just for a storm door, I’m starting to contemplate just getting a whole new exterior door put on. Imagine being able to see my kids playing in the backyard from this seat with a big window in a new door. What do you guys think? Keep the old door or get a 3/4 window door?

IT'S OFFICIAL... you all love this bathroom renov

IT'S OFFICIAL...

you all love this bathroom renovation as much as we do. Its been getting a lot of love on our stories every time it makes an appearance so I thought I'd give it some more love on the feed. Plus, this @ruggable machine washable rug needed to have a square to show its beauty. Perfect for that vintage rug look, but safe for messy kids and doesn't slip out of place. (rug is the Verena Dark Wood) use code FUNKATIEROSE10 for 10% off #ruggablepartner

With less than a week left before school starts again, this is the only room in the house that I can keep clean for any amount of time...so I’ll just keep posting it 😉

Playing musical chairs with our furniture in 2021...
Who knew that our sectional in our family could become furniture in 2 separate rooms? I’m here for it. Now with a week left before school starts, can I go hide in here?!?

Happy New Year!

we took a pretty long awaited break from posting on our feed. We played with our kids, Rob and I took long walks together planning out our next year, and we spent so much time building memories with our family. But now we are back and ready to hit this year with the ground running. The house is undecorated and feels empty. So hold your horses as we spend 2021 doing all of the little projects to make this home feel special. Ps. Is it too soon for Valentine’s decor?

Each year that passes since this day 5 years ago I

Each year that passes since this day 5 years ago I post this picture. In it we are obviously madly inlove. What you don’t see are two people with very little money (this elopement of $350 ate up our last dollar that Christmas ) a 2.5 year old who had come with hard times, and an 8 week old baby in my belly. You don’t see how two people who probably wouldn’t have ended up together fought tooth and nail to not only become a loving family, but also successful and happy. It’s been a hard 5 years, and an even harder 8, but it’s also been the best years of my life. We turned something beautiful from nothing. Our constant dedication to each other and making sure we are the best we can be for each other has made this work. But, with 5 years of marriage under my belt, I will say that I am more inlove with you each and every day. I will choose you over and over and even though it’s been tough, I would climb every mountain We’ve gone though 100x over to end here at this exact spot. I love you big bear @wilddecoelisphotography

And with that last post, I can finally set my OOO email response and spend all of the time during the holidays with my sweet family. Thank you everyone who has put up with my posts over the last few weeks. Your engagement Means the world to us. With each like and comment, you are supporting us more than I think you will ever understand. PS how cute that Santa print turn out?

How many of you are list people? I don’t know much that Rob loves more than coffee and making lists. He pretty much starts his day off sitting at the kitchen table or in his office chair with a coffee in hand after dropping the kids off at school and making a list for what to do that day. This Christmas, I stocked up on all the last minute stocking stuffers @staplescanada finding the perfect gifts for everyone, including an new mug, notebook and robs favorite pens for this guy. Plus I was able to easily shop online and and do curbside pickup. If you need some last minute items for your family, they now are offering guaranteed shipping by Christmas Eve so you will be able to get everything done without leaving your home. I know I’ll be here making cookies as I watch him make all the lists. #ad #worklearngrow #holiday

I'm still in shock that I was able to find out so much about my ancestors on
@ancestryca. If you missed it, I filmed an entire IGTV documenting how I found out someone on my mother’s side is pretty famous, HINT: if you are a royalty buff you may find this extra cool. Now I am super pumped to dive into my father’s side and learn more about the brothers who came into the Lunenburg port in the 1700s. How far back do you know about your family tree? *ad

Thought this mantle deserved a static photo on the feed before the greens get crispy 😉😉😉#christmasmantle

I miss shopping in stores, especially for Christma

I miss shopping in stores, especially for Christmas gifts. Who’s with me? But, @toysruscanada has us covered with a one stop shop we were able to grab everything for our own kids and nephew. We know shipping is backed up with everyone ordering online so we went with their curbside pickup option which was so great and quick. We had no contact with anyone and could text them that we were there. Now the big question….have you finished your Christmas shopping? *sponsored

I have quite an interesting question which has alw

I have quite an interesting question which has always been a debate over on stories today. The age-old question of if you put your toilet paper over or under when you hang it on the wall. With this season we are in having young kids, self-care definitely isn’t what it used to be. We have realized after the last seven years of being parents, the best form of self-care for us right now is to invest in the everyday products to make even the most mundane of tasks enjoyable. One of these things is also investing in good quality toilet paper, because let’s face it, as parents we often find ourselves hanging out in the bathroom a bit too long just to have a moment by ourselves. Not only does @theroyalekittens have NEW Velour Ultra Plush bathroom tissue but we feel good purchasing it as it is a Canadian-made, Canadian-owned company. Now head over to my stories and chime in on the pole, I’d love to see how you put your bathroom tissue on. #royalevelourultraplush *ad

Toilet training kids, not that we’re close to it

Toilet training kids, not that we’re close to it with this guy yet, is hard enough and making it uncomfortable is even worse. I mean we all know how good, good toilet paper feels, am I right? We have switched over to @theroyalekittens NEW Velour ultra plush rolls and we don't plan on switching back – I always prefer supporting Canadian owned and Canadian manufactured brands like Royale, they make me feel good about purchasing! Do you believe in investing in plush and thick toilet paper? Check out the product where you shop for bathroom tissue! #RoyaleVelourUltraPlush *AD

AD: I am THE WORST for remembering to eat, especially when I am knee deep into doingsomething whether it's cleaning the house or working. Anyone else have this issue?Lately, I've been trying to change that by grabbing a yummy @danone.canada
no added sugar yogurt with a creamy texture....like getting all my gifts wrapped BEFORE Christmas Eve. Now, I have to ask, have you startedwrapping yet?
