Can you believe we are already finding ourselves at our local @meijerstores for the 2024 back to school season? #meijerbts #ad I’m all for one-stop shopping and knew that Meijer was the perfect place for that. I was even able to pick up a few other things we needed for the house. 🤫 Getting our list checked off a bit earlier allowed us to catch some amazing deals on all of our favorite brands like Crayola, Elmers, and Expo! They even carry their very own Meijer Brand back to school supplies. Were you a kiddo that always looked forward to back to school shopping like me? #backtoschool #motherhood #parenthood #schoolsupplies #2024schoolyear #juniorkindergarten #firstgrade #raisingboys #meijerpartner

Oh the many things I’ve have learned from this boy that have made me more myself than ever. He’s happy to be right along side of me, exploring outside. His love for bugs is fascinating, and his easy going mind is envious. I love being this boys mama so dearly! Cheers to all of the dirty toes and sandy cheeks life offers us, and simply doing exactly what makes us HAPPY (even if it’s rolling in sand) 🏖️ #motherhood #parenthood #michigan #michiganmama #beachcamping #caseville #huroncountryparks #rvlife #raisingboys #alittledirtneverhurt #exploreoutside #puremichigan #michigancontentcreator

Oh so buttery or classic kettle? #sponsored The quality time I spend with my boys and as a family in general is most important to me. It’s the little things like our @ilovepopsmith that make moments more involved and special to us! Not to mention, their modern popper is gorgeous in my kitchen! Poor, cook, enjoy! Cheers to those family movie nights in with the perfect popcorn treat 🎞️ #motherhood #parenthood #movienights #popcorn #popsmith #modernkitchen #ilovepopsmith

I don’t spent much time on here during the summer, our days are so full in all of the best ways. We spend most of our time outside and I try to avoid my phone and just dive into all around us. I had a really good wrap on my anxiety during the spring, the progress from the previous fall was like night and day. Things kind of derailed recently being left without a schedule, it’s easy for me to coop myself up, or glue myself to the couch sunken in with anxious feelings. So I avoid that, and a big part of it is being on my phone, it’s ultimately a trigger. I’m so much better staying busy, being outside, yet slowing down in ways where I can soak up all of the beauty around me and encourage a positive, healthy mindset.

And just like that, I have two big boys. 📍 @ankleyfamilyfarm

One of our favorite stops to make - the drive thru Safari! 👏🏼 #travelingwithkids #thelittlethings #livelife #motherhood #parenthood #ohiodaytrips #ohiotravel #michiganmama #michigancontentcreator

Our new Sofa from @burrow has completely changed our space and it’s safe to say, I’m in love! #ad Our previous sectional haunted me with is stains and filth. It was difficult to clean, but I will ALWAYS be the mama to let us enjoy snacks together on the couch! Family movie nights, anyone? 👏🏼 The Block Nomad Sofa Sectional from the award winning Nomad Collection is built to last (yes, even with young children in your home). Its scratch and stain resistant fabric comes in an array of different colors, however I cannot get over how crazy I am about this moss green! You also have options for different vase configurations, leg finish, arm style, back cushions, etc! A customizable couch to fit perfectly in your space. #burrowroomies #myburrow #livingroominspo #familyfriendlyfurniture #motherhood #parenthood #mamalbouef #michiganmama #michigancontentcreator

Today I started my day at the local farm store, the hardware store, quickly digging in the dirt - planting and weeding, spreading straw, giving feed, filling bowls. A day outside, all day. Hot, sweaty, and dirty. But full of so much happiness. We played in the yard, swimming in the river, picking flowers. I am grateful for the life we have created and the path we have chosen. This life may not be for everyone, but it is most definitely for me. 🌾☀️ What was the highlight of your Saturday?

#ad It’s been quite sometime since I’ve gotten a piece of furniture, built it, put it in place, and was able to sit back and think “it’s exactly what I was looking for”. Thank you @walkeredisonco for this gorgeous modern arched bookshelf, the perfect piece for our space. I was able to easily build this by myself (I know it can sometimes feel intimidating - just go for it)! #mywalkeredisonhome #walkeredison #workfromhome #wfhlife #motherhood #homedecor #myvibe #mamalbouef

Would you reach for the croissant with s‘more topping or some blueberry lemon spread? #ad You can’t go wrong with either, especially when pairing with @wildgrainbox and their irresistible croissants. When I say they are the best I have ever had, I’m not messing around you guys!! I can’t wait to get my hands on more. Something I think we may always need to have in our home freezer going forward. #mywildgrain #pastries #bread #sourdough #freezertotable #firstbake #motherhood #bakingideas #bakingrecommendations #michiganmom #michigancreator

Check out how we celebrated the end of the school year and kicked off our camping season! What a fun filled way to celebrate Wyatt graduating Kindergarten! We absolutely loved our stay at @graylingjellystone and were already talking about coming back again this summer before we even had left! I was so impressed by their activity schedule for the kids and all that they offered. Highly recommend! 👌🏼 #jellystone #jellystonecampground #campjellystone #familyfriendlycampgrounds #michigancamping #jellystonepartner
