Rise and Shine is my way of starting the day with you – almost as if we’re chatting over a hot cup of coffee or tea! I share my favorite deals of the day, highlights from yesterday, and anything else that might help you save time, money or energy. Published in the morning on Monday through Friday – as I’m able.
Good morning! We are HOME! We got the keys to our Olympia house on Tuesday afternoon. We’ve spent the last four days unpacking boxes and starting to get settled! Feels so good to be home. If you aren’t familiar with our story – we left Olympia in June 2015 to travel the country in our Airstream – what a special year that was! After we wrapped that we ended up settling in Northern Idaho in fall 2016. We’ve been over in Coeur d’Alene since then – and although it was a great place to live – we yearned for more family-filled holidays and regular get-togethers and we missed the ocean and people of the Pacific Northwest. Mr. Queen Bee’s parents live in Lakewood – and we missed having them around, too. So a year ago we decided we’d move back to Washington this spring after our son’s 5th grade year – seemed like the best time to transition back to the Puget Sound.
We found the perfect house in Northeast Olympia – built in 1890 – it has so much character and the best front porch. The previous owners took amazing care of it and they worked hard to create an urban farm. On this small city corner lot we have four different cherries, apple, yellow plum, kiwis, blueberries, raspberries, grapes, huckleberries, a plethora of flowering plants and a chicken coop. It’s everything I wanted in terms of a “farm” but without the maintenance required for acreage. We also find great value in being in a neighborhood so our kids can run around and play with other kids – and we don’t have to drive long distances to get places. I think this is the perfect mix of all those things.
We’ve spent a lot of time on the front porch this week and have met so many neighbors – I think it’s going to be a great place to set down roots and we’ll be staying put for the foreseeable future.
I can’t wait to get cooking in the kitchen again – sharing recipes and doing FB lives sharing how we’re saving money, growing things in the yard and all the things we’ve done in the past on the blog. I know this type of content has been missing – and it’s really due to the transition that we’ve been in the last few years. Hoping this changes soon.
