Bend- you exceeded every expectation. Save for Ben Bend- you exceeded every expectation. Save for Bend, OR favorites:

Breakfast 🥞: @sparrowbakery - their French toast sticks are divine and their pasties are literal art. We ate here twice during our stay and would recommend it over and over again! 

Dinner 🍽 : @bendbrewingco - Fried cheese curds, fresh and flakey fish and chips and amazing burgers, with beautiful patio seating right on the River. Plus everything was reasonably priced. 10/10 recommend. 

Coffee Shop ☕️: @dudleysbookshopbend - the CUTEST bookstore/coffee shop combo. Grab a cup of coffee or cocoa and a book all in one stop.

Entertainment: Catch live music and play golf in a state-of-the-art golf simulator at @waltreillysbend and grab a late night snack while you’re at it!

Adventures: Explore Lava River Cave and hike to Tumalo Falls! Both are great adventures and not too intense of hikes - Tumalo Falls is a trail with several waterfalls featured in the above reel!

Bend was a dreamy slice of heaven and we cannot wait to go back - it’s the most delicious little town in a dreamy setting.

Turns out that life after infertility doesn’t ha Turns out that life after infertility doesn’t have to be all doom and devastation. It’s not always easy, but we’re finding more joy and beauty in just living and exploring and taking advantage of all the time and freedom this new chapter of life has to offer us. 

Our week in the Oregon Wilderness has given me so much life, so much clarity, and so much energy for creating a life that I love. I realized I have so much to give, so much to do, and so much to be, even if I don’t have children or a family the way I thought I would. 

I do have a family. And I do have Littles to still leave a legacy behind for - and an example to set for. And that’s enough for me.

Dustin has never given up or given in on creating Dustin has never given up or given in on creating a beautiful life together after our journey to have children ended last year. Instead, he has thrown himself into finding the next chapter of our story and I’ve been hanging on to him for dear life as he ran full force into our new future. 

After working so hard for so long, he signed and closed on a darling house in The Poconos, Pennsylvania that we will be turning into an air bnb this summer (and vacationing in it ourselves in the fall) 🥳

If you would have told me last October as we went through with my hysterectomy that we would have a vacation home in the East to spend the next October in, I would have laughed in your face. I’ve never doubted Dustin, but it seemed impossible to think about moving forward with new dreams and goals after our journey to have kids came to a crashing hault. 

But here we are - creating a life we love and doing our best to make the most out of the cards we’ve been dealt. 

I can’t wait to take you all on this new adventure (because guess who is in charge of furnishing and managing the new air bnb?) 

Thank you for always cheering us on. We love you.

We have to change the narrative around those going We have to change the narrative around those going through infertility journeys. We have to stop saying: “don’t give up - you’ll get your baby someday!” It’s doing a lot of unspoken damage to those of us in the throes of infertility. 

I understand that many say this to be positive and uplifting, but when we were faced with making a heartbreaking choice to end our infertility journey, I felt like I was giving up. Instead of confidently making a decision to remove the organ that was slowly killing me, I looked at other infertility accounts and saw the repeated message that if I kept on pushing through treatments, i too, would get my baby. I felt selfish and unsure that putting my health first was truly the right thing to do. There was almost nothing out there to help us find peace and validation in ending our infertility journey without feeling like massive failures.

I have felt so called to speak on this now that we’re in this next phase of life and to do my best to share a perspective I wish I had access to last year. I hope that by speaking up and sharing our life in this next chapter, we can help those who are looking for hope in moving on from infertility without a pregnancy or baby. 

If you are reaching the end of your journey, I want you to know that you are not giving up. You are not a failure. You are choosing to not let infertility destroy you. 

It’s okay to grieve the life you wanted, but I want you to know you can still build a life you love. 

You are not giving up.

How to Save Money on your Cable Bill

This post was sponsored by Orby TV. All opinions are my own. Thanks for supporting the brands that support HTC.

How to Save Money on Cable TV featuring OrbyTV // Hey There, Chelsie

Well. It’s official. Our house is on the market. The “For Sale” sign is in the front yard. We’ve been busy with back-to-back showings (15 in the last 4 days.) We have an offer in on a new place in the area we want to move to and have our fingers crossed that the stars align and that everything we’ve been working towards falls into place.

It’s been an exhausting few weeks getting the house ready for the market and figuring out all of our finances for our next home purchase. We’re really excited about the potential this house sale has to set us up financially (more on this to come) but until everything is set in stone, we’re in major savings mode. Moving is EXPENSIVE, even if you’re only moving 30 minutes South and we don’t want to end up in the hole after everything is said in done.

Dustin and I sat down and took a good look at our finances a couple of weeks ago to figure out where we could cut back while we wait for the sale of our house to go through. We knew we definitely needed to stop eating out (I can’t even remember the last time we cooked a meal in our kitchen, but it was before the kitchen sink debacle of 2019.) We also looked at all of our subscriptions and bills to see if there was anything we could cancel or cut out for the time being. While we both are willing to make sacrifices while we prepare for this transition to a new home, we also didn’t want to completely deprive ourselves of the things that make us happy (and for me, that is watching HGTV to end the day!)

Enter: OrbyTV

How to Save Money on Cable TV featuring OrbyTV // Hey There, Chelsie How to Save Money on Cable TV featuring OrbyTV // Hey There, Chelsie

So, what is OrbyTV and how does it work?

OrbyTV which is an amazing tv service that allows you to save money on your cable bill without having to actually give up your favorite tv channels!

To be honest, we were a little skeptical when we first learned about OrbyTV. It seemed too good to be true – especially since we’ve been in nightmare situations before with internet and tv providers and their sneaky contracts.

Think about prepaid cellphones, but in Sattelite TV form! Basically, you go to BestBuy and purchase the OrbyTV equipment, which is the Satellite Reciever box and remote for $99.00 (or $199.00 if you want the DVR option.) After you purchase your equipment, you set up a time for your satellite dish and antenna to be installed and activated. Once your equipment is all hooked up, you only have to pay one monthly fee to access all of the channels.

That’s right. One monthly fee. No activation fees. No contracts. No cancellation fees. Just $40.00 or $50.00 a month, depending on what channel package you want. You can pause your service whenever you want through your online account and easily turn it back on without paying any additional costs. This is AWESOME because we’ll be able to pause our service during the month we move since we won’t be watching a lot of TV (you know, when the TV is packed up and in a moving truck.)

How to Save Money on Cable TV featuring OrbyTV // Hey There, Chelsie

Another amazing feature about OrbyTV is that once you have your equipment installed, you’ll always have access to local channels, regardless of if you are paying for the satellite channels. That’s because the equipment comes with an antenna that will allow you to watch Fox, NBC, ABC, and all of your local news channels! This is seriously a GAME CHANGER for us, because we were paying a LOT of money to watch our Patriot games during football season. Between CBS AllAccess pass and NFL Sunday Ticket, our tv expenses were through the roof in order to watch the Patriots play. Now that we have Orby, we’ll be able to cancel those services and watch our football games in real time, on the tv, like everyone else, except for a fraction of the cost.

The OrbyTV channel lineup is fantastic. I get my favorite channels, like HGTV and the Food Network, and some fun channels that you typically have to pay a TON of extra money for, like the DIY Network and Investigation Discovery. You can view the full line-up of channels here.


Watching HGTV every night and finding some home decor inspiration for our new space has been my favorite way to unwind from my day and de-stress from the chaos of selling our house. I’m so glad that we were able to find a solution that allowed us to keep our favorite TV channels while drastically cutting down our costs. If you’re looking to save on your cable bill, we 10/10 recommend OrbyTV!

It’s okay to grieve the life you wanted, but I want you to know you can still build a life you love. 

You are not giving up.
