I bought the first duster sweater of the season this month when I needed a brain break and popped in to free people with my pal Ashley. It’s been a while since either one of us found something we had to have and coincidentally we each found something that day. I purchased this long length…

A Visit to the Neighbors Farm Stand
Living out in the country means that grocery stores are a bit further of a drive (among other things, read here) but one huge perk is all of the farmers in the area having produce stands in their front yard. Our neighbor to the north has a large orchard where he sells apples and other…
Sequin Joggers for Girls Night
Outfit: Sequin Joggers, Anthro (SALE) , Sweater, Jcrew, Brooch, Chanel There are a lot of firsts happening this month and it seems weird to plan girls nights and activities based on case counts courtesy of the pandemic but, we finally were able to get together for a girls night. Joe and I (as well as…
A visit to the fall exhibit at Meijer Gardens
Otto and I finally got back to Meijer Gardens for the first time since March. I think one of the things that amazes me most about this pandemic is how quickly we forget and/or adapt to the situation. I don’t think that is a good thing? Maybe parts of it are. I know we shouldn’t…
My Favorite Daphne Tweed Coat and a Pumpkin Patch
Have I mentioned yet how much I love fall? It love the crisp leaves and the hot cider. Not to mention there are pumpkins for sale in almost every farmers front lawn. I was on my way home from an estate sale and I came across this adorable farm stand so naturally we had to…
Exploring Urbana Ohio Springfield Antique Extravaganza
A few weeks ago my pal Ashley and I went for a road trip for the first time since March. It was a bit nerve wracking at first but once we hit the road it felt soooo good to get a change of scenery. We rented a little air bnb in Urbana, Ohio about 20…
Spooky Fall Front Porch
Every Wednesday Otto and I visit the farmers market before taking him to school and we load up on pumpkins for the front porch. I finally had a chance to arrange them a few days ago on the porch and Otto was very adamant that the porch needs to be spooky. It’s so fun having…
The Perfect Day in Downtown Holland
I’m going to continue my quest to get you all to visit Michigan and share with you more about what one of my favorite lakeshore towns has to offer. A few weeks ago I was able to share a day in downtown Holland on my instagram but I wanted to give it a more permanent…
Farmhouse Fall Decor for the Formal Dining Room
It was really hard for me to take down the gallery wall in the formal dining room. It was the first room we ever completed and it had been that way for a number of years. I’m someone that once I get things the way I like them, I don’t really change them. Unless I…
Beginner Photography Tips
I get asked quite a bit who takes all of your photos!? It’s typically either my husband Joe or my pal Ashley. It took me a long time to get my rhythm and learn how to take quality photos for my blog but once I stared to dive in, I learned to really love it…
Questions and Answers About Our Farm
I drove by our old house earlier this week and I can’t believe it’s been almost 7 years since we’ve moved to the farm. It’s been a true whirlwind as we’ve added fruit trees, gardens, sheep, chickens and a kid. It feels like just yesterday and as we are getting ready to overhaul the house…
Comfy and Cozy Loungewear at The Found Cottage
The leaves are starting to turn here already and as much as I’m fighting it I’m slowly giving way to accepting fall is here/coming. Typically I would be jumping up and down with pumpkins on my porch and a PSL in my hand but I’m anxious about pushing the seasons along this year. Slow and…
