Welcome to Martin Made Simple!

My name is Paige, and I start my mornings with coffee, finish my day with wine, and somehow find some sort of balance to the craziness in between.

My husband, Blake, and I have been married for 5 years, but have been together since middle school. Together we have built and survived a family of 5 through 3 moves in the last few years.  Our boys are our entire life and keep us on the move. Cooper (3), Eli (1), and Reece (2 months) are so much fun.

Recently we have just became foster parents to Reece, but we have brought him into the family as one of our own and enjoying every second with him.  To finish out the Martin crew, we also have our fur babies, Lucy (golden retriever), Rivers (golden doodle), and Jinx (rescue cat).  

Together we are all living in our apartment until we start looking for our permanent home in the area at the beginning of the year.

So to say it’s a circus most days is definitely an understatement.  

We are new to the Chattanooga/ East Tennessee area, so I love sharing new family activities I find for us to do. Also, with this many kids under 3, date night spot finds are also nice.   Food and drinks are mine and Blake’s hobby and passion. We love cooking together, and the kitchen is where we spend most of our time. My blog and Instagram are full of some of our recipes and favorite dinner ideas.  

We can’t wait to share more with you as we go along our circus trail!
