Misadventures in becoming a stay-at-home Mama. I finally realized trying to be a wife, mother, daughter, sister, friend, homemaker, professional marketer and creative spirit was just too much to juggle (successfully, anyways). My husband and I decided we would try to cut back, live simply and enjoy more time with our sweet baby girl. Admittedly, the first few months have been tough with our income cut in half and few freelance projects on the horizon. My plan is to document my adventures in making my dream a reality...the good, bad and funny.

Simplified Kind of Life

In an effort to minimize, simplify and refocus, we have our high maintenance "fun stuff" for sale. Yes, the boat, jeep and truck are up for grabs.

I know this is a painful process for DaDa; he has worked so hard to obtain, maintain and execute our weekend warrior lifestyle for 8 years now.  He did a fine job and I am so thankful for the memories (tearing up)! No lack of adventure here....rock climbing, camping, floating on the river, sunset cruises and dips in the Tennessee River on a hot Summer day. I miss it already.

I know we are making the right move. Our stuff is holding us back.  We have been dragging anchor - getting more stuff, needing more space for our stuff and breaking our backs to keep up with our stuff. It is time to cut the rope and see where our ship sails! It is a wicked cycle that we hope to nip (for a while at least). 

It will be an adjustment in lifestyle, but our new adventures in parenting are way more exciting. The ultimate weekend warrior challenge is on!


LoLo has enjoyed the extra play space she has in the yard, as well as, quality time spent with DaDa cleaning and prepping for the sale.
