Born a twin, Cyn and I were given a lot of attention based on how we looked. As kids, people would stare at us and stop to ask us questions. "There's two of you? Are you two twins?" Our mom finally got us a t-shirt that read, "Yes, we are twins." We became a novelty in our home town. We weren't separate beings. We were the "Daniel Twins" of Gainesville, Florida. We entered fashion shows, commercials, modeling gigs, and auditioned for tv and film roles as a unit. I grew up bel

I've always had a bit of social anxiety, but I felt it flare up two years ago when I got married and moved to a new city. There was so much change happening at one time. I needed to make new friends, adjust to my husband’s hometown, and get to know his friends and family. My husband is super social, and I’m more of an introvert. I wanted to make friends, but I was noticing anxiety around social settings. I'd catch myself in my head and not fully engaged in conversations. I ha

As you know, Cyn, Adam, and I recently finished our home renovation, and we're excited to share more design elements specifically from our kitchen renovation part of the project. We will also share where we sourced our materials. We completely transformed our kitchen into my favorite spot in our home. Like most families, we spend the majority of our time in and around the kitchen. It's a place we like to catch up, eat, and most importantly connect. When planning for our home

My home is my sanctuary, so when the Woosley Fire came blowing through last November, burning right up to our front door, you can only imagine how devastating it was for us. Thankfully, we didn't lose our home, but sadly, our entire landscaping was destroyed. My sis and I love a good renovation, so when it came time to tackle my 2 plus acre grounds, we couldn't wait to get started. With a view of devastation all around us and the smell of wet burnt wood, we knew it was time t

Adam and I finished our home renovation and we couldn't be more excited to share it with ya’ll! We are grateful to Cyn for jumping in to help us out. Together, Cyn and I designed the look and sourced the materials. We created a modern look, that feels bright and airy and for a bit of edge, we added bold black accents. Adam took the lead as a general contractor and did a wonderful job opening up our kitchen and creating a proper size master bath. Take a look at our “before an
