We're back with the third installment of our homebuilding series! This week we pick things back up by talking about the fun decisions that come with building a house such as paint colors, cabinet choices, floors, tile, backsplash options, and more.

Join us as we revisit the different types of decisions we faced while putting the finishes in our house, and listen as we discuss the things we are glad we picked, the things we would do differently, along with a step by step recounting of the processes we went through to choose these items.

We hope you will join in the conversation with us on Instagram or in our Facebook Group. Don't forget to rate and review the podcast and share with a friend.

Thanks for Listening!

Today we are continuing the homebuilding conversation as we discuss framing, plumbing, roofs, windows, doors, stairs, trim, and so many more decisions you get make when you are building your house!

Join us as we share our good, bad, and ugly experiences making all of these seemingly small decisions and how easy it is to get blocked with decision fatigue or overwhelm, along with how we prevented ourselves from getting stuck.

We share a lot of design and money saving tips intermixed with things we are glad we chose (and things we wished we had chosen differently!).

We will continue the conversation again next week, and we would love to hear from you. Send us your questions and tips! Leave a comment on Instagram or in the Facebook Group, or send us an email! We will do our best to answer them in our next episode.

Don't forget to share the podcast with a friend and thanks for listening!

Homebuilding is the most requested topic for us to cover and we are finally doing just that! We are breaking down this conversation into several parts because there is so. much. to. cover.

Today we are covering a lot of ground as we discuss how we decided to build, picked our lots, builders, and house plans. We discuss what to look for in each category and how we came to a decision on each of them. We discuss the ups and downs of designing a custom home, working with an architect and things to consider when you are creating plans (like the laws of physics...).

Also covered: vibing with your builder, budgeting for your build, timelines and if they are met (nope), coming up with measurements, paying builders, etc.

We hope you will join in the conversation! Do you have questions? Have you built a house? Do you have advice in any of the categories that we discussed today?

Chime in on Instagram or in the Facebook Group. We love hearing from you!

It's almost April Fools Day and we can't wait to talk about the potential pranks we can all pull on our families this year! Joy's sister, Adrienne, joins us to discuss different ways we have made the most of April Fool's Day in the past and ways we ourselves have been the victims of past jokes.

Lissi talks about all the ways the girls gang up on her husband with their harmless pranks and how delighted her daughters are to watch them play out. Joy and Adrienne discuss the ways they were pranked as children, as well as how they used to play jokes on each other.

Join us as we reminisce some of our best April Fools work, along with ways we have been the unsuspecting victims of some very clever pranks.

We definitely want to hear from you! We all still have time to make our April Fools Day fun for everyone. Let's swap stories and share ideas that we can all go forward and use!

This week we are recounting all the details of cruising over Spring Break. We had SO MANY QUESTIONS before we left: What to wear and when, what types of things to pack for the room, how to navigate things on the ship, how the kid's club works...and so much more. We found out that you all have just as many questions, so we thought we would share our experience from the past week.

Obviously we can only speak to our specific experience (Royal Caribbean Harmony of the Seas) but we hope that if you've ever had questions about cruising and how it works, we can be of help to you!

We cover a lot of territory in this episode, but we definitely want to hear all of your tips and tricks to cruising. We are by no means experts! Also, if you have any questions, post them and we can help each other out. (Feel free to weigh in on the college cheating scandal as well!!)
