So we wallpapered the laundry room while Cory was away on a fishing trip 😱And y’all want to know……
Did Cory hate it? Does it get to stay? Let’s just say, he doesn’t love it, but the wallpaper is here to stay 💃🏼🕺🏼

I just wish I had a picture of Cory’s face when he saw it for the first time 😆

I’m bored in the house and I’m in the house bored (now this song will be stuck in your head all day too)

While we’re all home, for how long (who the fuck knows). I thought we might as well make a list of that annoying shit we never want to do. You know, back when we had busy schedules. Social lives. Seems like a really long time ago. Ha! All those things we put off? On the weekends I get really anxious from too much scrolling + refreshing news stories about Coronavirus. So, I’ve decided that I am focusing on what I CAN control and doing things around my house to be productive (when I get sick of scrolling + sitting on the couch + drinking).

 I know it’s so tough to stay home but while we’re all here, we might as well make the most of it, right?

And get check some things off the list that you’v been putting off FOR-EVVVV-ERRRR!

I hope the weather is nice for my trip to Puerto Backyard🌴 getting tired of Cabo San Living room 🏡
