Hello, 2018!

We woke up to a bitterly cold New Year’s Day, with the sun pouring in the hundred year-old windows and flooding the living room with possibilities. It’s 2018 y’all!!!

We brought in the new year with family as the ball dropped at 12am and a whole new year began right before our eyes. We stayed home and made grilled cheeses with pesto and a homemade tomato bisque soup. Thomas’ mom brought white bean chicken chili and all of it together made for a warm, cozy night in to battle the 13 degree weather that was happening outside.

There’s always such a sense of possibility in the new year, isn’t there? It feels like you get to start over, be whoever you want to be, a second chance. If you don’t need to start over, though, there’s still a feeling of a excitement that this is the year you are going to be the best version of yourself.

Happy New Year to you, friend! We’re glad to have you here with us in 2018.

Goodbye, 2017!

2017. What a year. It was a very interesting year for us, as we're sure it was for most people. We had a lot of highs and a lot of lows, but every step of the way we had each other, something we feel grateful for while looking back at the last 12 months.

Were there fights? Oh yes, plenty. Were there tears? For sure. Was there yelling? You betcha! But there was also so much love this year, probably more so than any that came before. And not just between us! From YOU guys! We felt so accepted and loved by you this year and have grown so much closer to y'all that we feel like you're a part of our family now. So, welcome to the fam!

This was the year that our HGTV pilot premiered, we met lots of new friends, took a couple of vacations, and bought a farm. We counted down our top 10 favorite moments from this past year in our newest YouTube video with never before seen pictures and videos. Be sure to stay tuned until the end to see what took the top spot!

We want to thank you for this year. Without you, none of what we did would be possible. We have loved hearing your stories, getting to know you, learning you, receiving your praise and criticism, and being able to cal you all friends. You have inspired us to work harder and push our creativity to the max. We have some fun things already planned for 2018 that we can't wait to share with you. Here's to a happy, successful 2018 for us all.
