New Home Office Updates: Barn Door + More

by

Home Depot Barn Door and Furniture

After buying our house, we never took the time to make my home office into… well a home office. It had a desk for my computer, but otherwise, it was less than ideal. It was connected to our main living space without any door, so the noise of our two kids was always a distraction,…

Haiku Fans Review – 4 Months Later

by

Bamboo Haiku Fan Home Office

Around 4 months ago, we installed Haiku fans in 4 rooms of our house. Before I make any purchase of that size, I always look for real-world people to tell me about their experience, so I thought I could return the favor. And because we have them in our living room, office and multiple bedrooms,…

Dipping my Toe into Home Automation

by

Sengled LED Element Bulbs

Time is a luxury, and between two kids and a demanding work schedule, I’m always trying to make my life easier. I’ve been reading up on various ways to automate our home, from vacuums that clean your home throughout the day to lawn mowers that know when to cut your grass, but most involve…

When to Invest in Quality Furniture

by

White Marble Coffee Table with Steel

With so many options to buy furniture these days, it can be tempting to find the cheapest pieces that get the job done and call it a day. It seems like the smart choice, but in the end, it can actually end up costing more than if you bought quality pieces that you’ll likely enjoy more and will last longer…

My New Work From Home Office

by

Ideal Home office 2017 Men

It’s easy to get complacent, so every new year I like to look over everything I’m doing to see if it can be improved. Budgets, fitness, business strategy, personal goals, and weekly routines all get a review. One area I found needed some improvement was my home office. I work a lot from home, and…

This week as part of @LeeAnneBenjamin 's and my go This week as part of @LeeAnneBenjamin 's and my goal to teach out kids something new or give them a unique experience every week this year, we're building @Lego Technic cars from @Target #Ad. I thought Noah would really be into them, but I was surprised by just how obsessed Emma has been with them too. They take a few days to make, so we've been doing a little bit most mornings or evenings. @Target has a bunch of different ones, and even has an exclusive on some of them like the green Mustang we're building, which is one of the less expensive ones. It's been an awesome way to get some good one on one time with both our kids. Check out my stories for more info and some links. #TargetPartner #TargetStyle

We’ve got a new project! I want to get the kids We’ve got a new project! I want to get the kids out fishing on the lake, but the boat slips here are either on a waitlist or too expensive to be worth it. Instead we’re going to transform this one into something we can drop in the water ourselves and spend less than we would on an annual boat slip. 
It’s not as big of a project as some we’ve done in the last, but this one should get done quickly. 
I’ve got a lot of ideas of what to add to it so we can have “Champaign taste on a beer budget.”
First up is a motor we can drive by a remote and eliminates the need for an anchor by using GPS. Check out my stories for more info

Spring's finally here, so we've finally been able Spring's finally here, so we've finally been able to get back outside. We've made a lot of changes to our backyard and are excited to share it all. One of our kids favorites is definitely the outdoor ping pong table from @Ledgelounger. It's made from high-quality resin just like their signature chairs, so it's going to stand up to just about anything the weather is going to throw at it, so we can simply enjoy it. Check out @leeannebenjamin 's stories for more info. #ad
We’re buying this house in Florida and Noah and We’re buying this house in Florida and Noah and Emma still don’t know :)
If you haven’t been following along on @leeannebenjamin ‘s stories, we’ve been looking for a Florida home for quite a while. 
In this crazy real estate market, even if you put an offer in a house above asking the asking price, there is a good chance you won’t get it. 
We had our offer accepted on this one a couple days ago, and today was the first time we got to see it in person. I shared a walkthrough of the house on @leeannebenjamin ‘s stories, so you can see more there. 
I’m super excited to let the kids know, but we’re going to wait until the closing is done, so we can bring them both to Florida and surprise them! I can’t wait to see their faces!

Getting some quality time in with the kids. Our en Getting some quality time in with the kids. Our entire backyard has been a construction site for the last 9 months, so we’ve been having to find new stuff to keep them busy. It will be so nice to be able to just walk into our backyard again and not worry about stepping on nails 😂
On a positive note, today we got to start filling our pool with water and we are supposed be be able to swim in it by next weekend! To say we’re excited is an understatement 🙏
