    Marriage Tending

    To celebrate our anniversaries, we're talking about tending to our marriages. We chat about how we're finding time together with our husbands in this season and what we like to do on dates. We also chat about the hobbies we share and might like to get into. As a treat for Friends of the Show on Patreon, we are bringing you the Husbands Next Door! One of them described our marriage as a borg. The other made inappropriate comments that had to be edited out. See? This is why we don't invite them on very often. ;) See full show notes on our website: Marriage Tending Connect with us on Instagram: @higirlsnextdoor We love to get your emails: higirlsnextdoor@gmail.com Your reviews on Apple Podcasts or where ever you listen really help the show – thank you!

    Sports moms, this one is for you! We chat about our experience parenting our kids through sports so far: what sports they've tried and what they're doing now.

    Spring Fling

    Spring has arrived in the desert and we made an episode to celebrate! We chat about what spring is like here and how it always catches us by surprise, reminisce about new motherhood memories, and motivate ourselves for some disgusting spring cleaning. Just for Friends of the Show, we have a spring Would You Rather quiz that gets predictably ridiculous.

    Life Lately

    We thought it was time for a real-time life update and hope this episode feels like a coffee date with friends. We touch on parenting, work, homeschool, the state of the world, and how we're making time for what matters to us. Just for Friends of the Show, we'll be telling you all about our recent three-night podcast retreat! From what we did and ate to a cheese emergency and our favorite Winter Olympic event. Plus, we'll share some of the planned episodes we're really excited for this year. See full show notes on our website: Life Lately Become a Friend of the Show!

    Our Personal Discographies

    Join us on a musical adventure as we explore the soundtracks of our lives thus far: from our childhoods through angsty teen years, falling in love with our spouses, and becoming parents. Just for Friends of the Show, there was one song on both of our discographies that was so impactful we need to do a deep dive with you, and maybe sing along together too. Of course we are talking about Gangsta's Paradise by Coolio. Elder Millennials, you know what we're talking about. Listen to the companion Spotify playlist!
