It's been a while....

Woah, boy it's been a long time! Life has been going pretty well. Caleb and I have both gotten promotions and we are happy in our new positions. I've been cooking a lot and I've been working on cleaning the house.

Now that Halloween is around the corner, I've already been thinking about Christmas. I have a lot of great gift ideas that I hope to share with you over the next couple of months. I've been crafting a lot and I plan to share those with you, too.

I also hope to chronicle my journey to a tidier house. We entertain frequently, which helps keep the junk relatively under control. However, I haven't done a ton of deep cleaning. This has been on the agenda for some time and I really need to get on it.

The main reason for some serious deep cleaning is that Caleb and I are trying to have a child. We've been trying for over 2 years and we've been going to a fertility specialist for just under a year. It's been a tough couple of years and I often feel like there's no hope. It always helps me to share my experiences and so I''ll do that here.

I hope you guys stick around- and I'll try to do the same.
