Announcement + Fall Recommendations
Hey everyone! We wanted to start off our post by making a quick announcement about something that’s been on our minds since the beginning of our blog. We’re very excited to announce that we will soon be starting our book video series!! In these videos we’ll discuss a few chapters of a book that we’ve read beforehand. We’ll be asking and answering questions based on the books and going deeper into their messages. We will also give summaries of the chapters so that anyone who doesn’t want to read the book could still follow along. We don’t want you to feel obligated to read along, but our next post will…

Books We Want to Read This Fall
Hello everyone! With the arrival of fall, we wanted to share some of the books we hope to read in the coming months. We haven’t read all of these books yet, so these aren’t necessarily recommendations, just the books we will be reading soon.

Hello everyone! Recently, we have found that we have not been as happy with some of our posts as we would like to be. After talking to each other, we came to the conclusion that this has to do with the fact that we have pushed back the posts that we would like to do so that we have time to post each week. We would like to create posts that we are more proud of, so we have decided it is best to post every other week so that we have more time to make better content.

Little Landscape Paintings
Hi everyone!As we were planning out our posts for the month of July, Mattie found a tiny canvas she had bought a while ago while rummaging around in her junk drawer. We’ve both wanted to get better at painting, so when we saw the canvas, we thought it would be fun to paint on a small scale! We each painted three landscape paintings. We used photos we found on Pinterest for our references. We don’t have much experience in painting, but we had fun trying a different art medium than we are used to and we hope we will get better with practice!
