Lately it seems to be quite a bit outdoor / patio loving! Which I am totally okay. It really is just now getting nice here for us in this state,

So I'll take all of the outdoor loving! We live outside basically in the nice weather months, so keep reading on about where this outdoor furniture is now living and for a fun little surprise project that is happening and to be shared as soon as it is finished!

 Better Homes & Garden Ventura Wicker Egg Chair. We have a lot of out buildings on our property. Big and small. One of them is Ryan's Man Cave. This space is decorated exactly how he likes it. The best feature is the deck off of the back and with the most gorgeous view..

Well this little area is currently getting a fun update to it (don't worry I'll share with you guys about it soon!)

 Some fresh furniture was on the list to update as well.. I wanted it to still look a bit "manly" as it is Ryans space but also wanted to keep it looking good, you know what I mean! I did my research on furniture for the specific look. This egg chair got me and it goes perfect in the spot on the deck I wanted it to go! Can't wait to share photos. Click HERE to look.

Women's Low Top Star Sneaker. My girls and I had a little mama/daughters date last weekend as all of the boys were gone for fishing opener here in Minnesota.. On our dates we always make sure to stop at trusty ol Walmart LOL. I can seem to 99% of the time find a good deal there! Lo and behold I found something HEHE. How cute are these?! Camo always gets me and it is Ryan's favorite too.

Brightech Ambience Pro WaterProof LED Outdoor String Light. Year round I get many questions asking about the patio string lights we have. These are the ones! I keep them up year round and they are very durable through all of the snow storms and crazy weather we get in the Midwest. Click HERE to look.


#2

Sculptured Statement Patio Chair and Ottoman. I do shop at Walmart a lot for outdoor furniture because their section and price is always so great. But let's be real, Target always has many beautiful pieces too!  I went with a couple of these to add to the ManCave collection. I liked the dark legs to tie in the dark egg chair. Plus they both have a woven look so they pair well together. Click HERE to look. 


#1

Rattan Stool From TjMaxx. I shared these this week due to the sale they were on. They may still be on sale as well. But I have these in our Proverbs31girl office space. The kids sit on them all of the time when they come to visit in there. Plus they are a beautiful wood coloring with contrast but now a orange tint to them at all. Click HERE to look.

The Oaks final outdoor reveal
By Allie Lundeen August 14, 2025
I pulled off the biggest surprise I've ever done... I can't believe it!! So a little back story - 17 years ago Ryan sold his prized possession, his 1991 Mazda Miata, to help fund a much needed mini van for our baby on the way. After I got pregnant I quit my job and we went from 2 incomes down to 1 income. We knew that a 2 person convertible just wasn't practical and that the finances could be used in a better way. So we sold it... Fast forward 17 years and it all comes back full circle. I put my 17 year old son Tate on the task of finding us a Miata that looked just like dads, and he blew it out of the water. He found the perfect car on Facebook Marketplace In great condition! He drove almost 3 hours to pick it up with a buddy and pulled off the best surprise ever!!! Also to note Tate has never driven through the Twin Cities or Driven a stick shift on any road besides a gravel one close to the cabin. BUT he was confident and crushed the challenge!! We stored it for the night and gave it to him the next day! I think Ryan's reaction says it all (watch the mini vlog below!) Our "19th" anniversary isn't until November but what fun is a convertible if you can't drive it in the summer, so we gave it to him early and are so happy we did! *make sure to read until the end for a good laugh ;)
