In lieu of the finale of the most recent season of The Bachelor, I am indulging even more in my favorite guilty pleasure by sharing the best Bachelor podcasts, books, and Instagram follows. I have been obsessed with The Bachelor, The Bachelorette, and the entire Bachelor Nation for years. I have seen every season with the exception of a few that aired during my international travels. Yet in the nearly 10 years of blogging here at Simply Rebekah, I have never once written anything about The Bachelor. All of that changes today, baby! This post contains affiliate links. The Best Bachelor Podcasts I have listened to hours and hours and … [Read more...]
A Day in the Life… 2019
Every year on January 18th I take one picture every hour from the moment I wake up until I go to bed that night. I end up taking pictures of the ordinary – supper prep, cranky kids, trips the library, a cup of coffee, my computer screen. These ordinary pictures are actually quite extraordinary. They are my everyday. They are my here and my now. They are a day in my life. I’ve given myself an amazing gift to be able to look back at a typical day from the past years and see the changes from year to year. The gift of being able to see the extraordinary in my everyday routine because the truth is simple: today’s routine will not be the same … [Read more...]
My Curly Hair Routine
In the last 7 years, I have transitioned from straightening my hair to leaving my hair naturally curly. It started mostly out of connivence since straightening my hair took so much time. However, as I got better at taking care of my curls and improved my curly hair routine, I started to truly apperciate my natural hair.

Adorable and Affordable Owl Birthday Party
Grace turned 8 last year, and we celebrated with an adorable and affordable owl birthday party. (I am a little behind on sharing our birthday party fun here on the blog.) Birthday parties in our house are always land somewhere in between “Pinterest Perfect” and “Minimalist Fun.” I want our parties to have fun decorations, but I don’t want them to take a lot of time or cost a lot of money. This party definitely took more work than other parties I have put together. There were a few time consuming decorations that I made, but they were not hard to create. They just required some time. Thankfully, the decorations were still very affordable. … [Read more...]

Outside The Box Chore List Ideas {free printable}
I used to feel guilty because my kids don't have a lot of daily chores. Then I started making chore lists for the kids on Saturdays like my mom used to do. Saturday chore lists are magical. Grace and Noah have fully embraced them, and I have learned (once again) that I need to find systems that work for me rather than copying what others do. Of course there are things that need to be done more often than once a week. Making Saturday chore lists for my kids does not mean that they aren't helpful throughout the week, but the Saturdays we make an extra effort to get some things done. The key to success with my Saturday chore lists … [Read more...]
