Good morning! The picture above (captured by none other than Bryan himself) is a BTS shot from our maternity shoot this weekend and I CAN’T FREAKING WAIT to see the actual pictures! If you need a maternity photographer, go check out Aimee Hamilton because she is seriously amazing. Now, let’s talk registry items. I swear that I have been living in a black hole of setting up nursery items, a never-ending pile of laundry and buying/exchanging things that we still needed. Creating a nursery and getting a registry together is both super fun and extremely overwhelming. I had no idea what a travel system was, how many bottles to add…

4-Day Babymoon Itinerary for Nashville!
This past weekend Bryan and I visited Nashville (or as we like to call it – the City of Patagonia and Hipster Hats) for our babymoon. If you’re unsure what a babymoon is, let me rest assured that it is NOT a vacation for us to make a baby… that deed is already done. No, instead, a babymoon is the last “YASSS, WE STILL HAVE FREEDOM & INDEPENDENCE!” before our worlds get flipped upside down with a baby. THURSDAY Early Traveling ain’t easy, and it damn sure ain’t easy if your husband accidentally puts the wrong last name on your tickets because you haven’t updated your last name yet. TSA…

It’s Officially Fall at The Kaases’ House!
HEEEEEY, Y’ALL! Is anybody else super thankful that fall is here?! In Houston it’s never cold, but it did conveniently cool down recently and it is SO WELCOME! I made a trip to my favorite stores for some bargain shopping on fall decor, and I. AM. IN. LOVE! Typically I don’t gravitate to orange, but for whatever reason this year I have been loving the combination of blue and orange sprinkled in with some greenery around the house. I also found a way to fill the mantle more, which is something that needed to be done since my lovely husband kept on using it as his end table (still love…

We Rescued a Puppy!
Meet Sandy – a 2.5-month-old rescued puppy from Citizens for Animal Protection that is maybe Husky/Border Collie. I am so in love with her already (Grayson isn’t as in love, but she’s warming up)! I’ve been hassling Bryan for about a year and a half now for another pup because I want Grayson to have a companion. Once we got engaged I left the topic alone because of the hectic wedding laundry lists that never seemed to end. Well, leave it to Bryan to give me what I want when I least expect it. On our wedding day we exchanged gifts, he got me an engraved bible with a letter…

Memorial Day Haul + Double Dinner Date
Y’all, this weekend has been the most chill Memorial Day weekend, but it was so good. Before I dive into what Bryan and I did all weekend, I want to show off some of my goodies from the memorial day sales that I hit up. Marc Fisher Holy moly, they had some amazing sales! I was seriously so blown away at the awesome prices. I was in serious need of some black wedges, but who can really say no to 20% off sale?! I ended up getting three pairs for under $140. Madewell I didn’t actually buy anything off of their memorial day sale, but they did have some cutie…

Memorial Day Sales + Fave Shops
Y’all, one of my all time favorite things is happening on tons of online shops right now – SALES. I’m a girl on the go that always wants to look fashionable (doesn’t always happen) and have allllll the pretty things, but I also just paid for a wedding, have a mortgage, have to take care of a dog, pay for gym membership (bc health is important too), etc., etc., etc. You know, just your average adult stuff! With that being said, sales are my best friend, and I am a religious “go to the back to see what I can find first before I fall in love with things that are…
