This lucky girl wants to brag about the lucky GUY! The man of the house won 25 town bucks in a drawing!  Yep, 25!!  Saaaa-weeeeet!!   I proudly picked them up for him at the chamber office today.  We live in such a lovely town.  I will *try* to force him to spend them on ...

The lucky girl series (pt. 2)

The smell of fresh bread is filling the house while it bakes in the other room. I was blessed with a bread maker from a very sweet woman this year. I'm a lucky girl!  & I should really make some bread for her soon! ...

The lucky girl series

I am so thankful for the garbage man who comes once a week & hauls away whatever I put out, no questions asked. This morning I filled a bag with expired car seats & couldn't even tie it shut.  He just swoops the bag up and tosses it in the truck. After a good month of feeling like I should ...

There’s an App For That

I've had my smartphone for a good part of the year now.  There are so many great apps, from educational, to games, to organizational.  My most loved app is the Bible.   I still much prefer my real bible, however I love the feature of listening to the scripture. Last night before ...

Learning something new.

My friend Jennifer came over last weekend and taught me how to knit. I'm thankful for this new activity, & getting to spend time with her. I'm not sure if it is something I will keep up, but it has been fun to try. As I struggled with how to hold the needles and where to put the yarn, I realized ...

Gloves

While I was driving up town today I felt something poke at my finger inside of the mitten part of my glove. The half glove/half mitten thing was a great invention. I pulled back the mitten to feel inside and see what was poking me, it felt like a piece of wood. I smiled when I realized that yes ...

Hey Friend! I am truly so glad that you’re here today!

At A Slightly Better Wife, I share about faith, homemaking, homeschooling, and marriage—along with my passion for creating a non-toxic, intentional home. Life isn’t about perfection, but I believe in making small, meaningful choices each day to do things slightly better than before.

My love for simple living and homemaking was deeply shaped by my grandparents. I have the best childhood memories of being in the kitchen with my Grandma Edna, learning the beauty of home-cooked meals and a well-tended home. My Grandpa Link’s storytelling and wisdom instilled in me the value of faith, family, and slowing down to listen during the little moments that make life rich. Their influence is woven into who I am today and I’m so grateful for that.

I’m a wife, a momma of 5, and a homemaker at heart. My husband and I met young, just days after my 18th birthday, and we quickly (like within a week) knew that forever was in our plans.

Together, we built our home on the edge of town, where we’re raising and homeschooling our children while embracing a simple, purposeful life in the city.

Here, you’ll find encouragement for your marriage, practical tips for homemaking, and inspiration to cultivate a home filled with faith and love. Whether you’re looking for a recipe, a fresh perspective, or just a place to feel understood, I hope you’ll stay awhile and explore.

Let’s pursue slightly better together!
