Gift Guide: Gifts for Him
You might find this hard to believe, but the men in my life are no longer the hardest to shop for. (That award goes to the 9 year old.) I could not believe how easily this Gifts for Him list came together.

Gift Guide: Gift Ideas for Him
Hi there! I shared this guide over on Instagram and Like to Know It a couple of weeks ago but just realized I never shared it here. So, below are some Gift Ideas for Him just in time for Cyber Monday. *DISCLOSURE: This post contains affiliate links, meaning that if you click and purchase, I may receive some compensation. Thank you!

Gift Guide: 8 Year Old Gifts
We currently have an 8 (almost 9) year old in the house. He has opinions. I’m hoping these gifts are not only approved by him but also by other 7-9 year olds too. Side note: my tween daughter will jump in on some of these activities we already own too. This list includes past tried-and-true favorites as well as new ideas.

Mackinaw Road: August Updates
Hi! Keep reading for some August Updates… (I can’t believe it’s already September!) I hope your August went well! It flew by for us, and I’m hoping to share some autumn styling soon. Until then, we will be soaking up all that summer has to offer! We spent the entire summer in Michigan and I’m not even a little bit mad about it. This is what we wait all year for and I am incredibly happy to stay put. That said, we are excited to be heading out East in September and I hope to finally be able to write another travel post for that.

Cabin and Home Updates
Hi there! Just some scattered thoughts and cabin and home updates here before I switch over to relaxation mode with finishing up summer and then scrambling mode as we get back-to-school ready. **This post contains affiliate links, meaning that if you click and purchase, I may receive some compensation. Thank you! Beach Cabin Vanity I can’t remember if I mentioned previously that we are using my childhood dresser as a vanity at the Beach Cottage. Tearing out the red, orange and yellow contact paper was surprisingly sentimental for me. Anyway, I originally thought- Great! Let’s repurpose the dresser as a vanity and save some money. I’m pretty sure we did…
