Hello my friends!
Well if the old adage of April showers is true, we should have a ton of flowers coming our way this month!!! Can you believe we’re heading into May already?!
With wedding shower planning for my bestie, teaching a few days a week and of course, who could forget our pledge to take part in the #OneRoomChallenge, we’ve been busier than ever this April! I can’t wait to fill you in!
Here’s a quick update of where I am currently …

Reading: The One & Only by Emily Giffin
Writing: After I finish up writing this Currently post, I’ll be working on our very last One Room Challenge post sharing the final reveal! Eeeeek!
Watching: I’m officially hooked on Big Brother Canada. Don’t judge.
Listening to: Since moving back to AB, I’m really enjoying listening to our absolute favorite radio station – especially since Brady’s cousin became one of the hosts!
Needing: Every single thing from my Mother’s Day Gift round-up!
Creating: We’re still hard at work on the first room makeover in our new home. Taking part in the One Room Challenge has definitely lit a fire under our butt to get it done!
Have you heard of it? Hosted by Calling it Home, the One Room Challenge encourages bloggers to completely transform one room in their homes in just six weeks (yes, you read that right – SIX)! Stay tuned for the final reveal this week!!!
Learning: We’re still working on taming this crazy toddler that seems to be taking over our sweet, easy-going son. We’re currently working our way through this book
Planning: Some super fun Summer trips including all of my faves: camping, mountain biking, hiking and maaaaaybe even a few wineries along the way!
Loving: Yoga! As life seemingly grows more crazy and hectic by the day, slowing down at my fave yoga studio a few nights a week has been an absolute lifesaver!
Dreaming about: Long Summer days, hanging at the beach and a ton of outdoor adventures with our friends and family!
Wearing: I’m not going anywhere without my new fitted urban parka! I don’t think I’ve ever loved a jacket so much!
Coveting: Our first generation Keurig finally bit the dust last week and since then I’ve been thinking about trying this Nespresso Coffee and Espresso Maker
Working for me right now: Planning out every little thing with this pretty planner! I’d be SO lost without it!!!
What’s not: Our hour long bedtimes with our crazy three-nager! Seriously, I’d die to be able to sleep as much as he can!
Anticipating: After 5 weeks of work, FINALLY getting to see how our little man’s Big Boy Bedroom comes together this week!
I’d LOVE to hear where are you currently? What’s new and exciting?
Wishing you SUCH a lovely week!
PS. You can find me sharing here and Savvy Southern Style.
Love that book! I just finished reading it and havea book review coming up tomorrow on my blog. Thanks for sharing.
Thanks Christina! I’ll have to swing by to check it out!!!
I need an espresso maker, too! Maybe once I start working full-time from home later this year I’ll invest in one. How fun would that be?
I just cheat with my milk frother and Keurig Jenna! Though espresso maker is definitely on my list!!! Totally need one if you’ll be working from home!!!
Sounds like a busy but fulfilling month! Looking forward to the room reveal!
Thanks Nicki! It was most definitely a very busy month – here’s hoping May is a bit slower!
So fun to be planning summer holidays! Can’t wait to see your ORC room all done… it’ll be nice to get on with other projects! Btw, we loooove ordering from Simons too! Have a great rest of the week! xo
It’s one of my very favorite stores Kendra! Thank you SO, SO much! Can’t wait to see how your bathroom turns out too! xo
Hmm.. Big Brother Canada.. I have never heard of that! Good luck on planning those trips. It sounds like an amazing summer!
Thank you! I wouldn’t call it quality TV, but I look forward to it each night it comes on!
That planner is cute! I just have a plain ol’ purse notebook that I affectionately refer to as “my brain”. I would be completely lost without it. Can’t wait to see your little one’s finished bedroom! My son’s isn’t even done after a year, so sad.
Thanks Rachel! I know just what you mean – I’d be so lost without my planner! SO excited to share the finished room tonight! You’ll see that ours has been in the works for more than a year now too and it feels SO great to have at least one room in our home completely finished!
What fun! Looks like a very full month! Thanks for linking up to the Bloggers Brags Pinterest Party. I have pinned to the Bloggers Brags Pinterest Broad.
Absolutely!!! Thanks so much Brandi!
I’m loving this! Pinned and tweeted. We appreciate you taking the time to party with us. I hope to see you on Monday at 7. Happy Mother’s Day! Lou Lou Girls
Thank you SO much Kimberly!
Also getting excited about summer planning. Some may include camping in the Rockies. Have a lovely week!
Oh fun!!! We LOVE camping in the Rockies!!! Enjoy Bonnie!
