So, school started this week. That means, waking up at 6:15 started this week. Hip, hip, hoorazzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz.
I think the transition back to our school schedule might be harder on me than on the kids. I don’t have any trouble being the bedtime dictator for them, but I have a much […]
I met Katie at Blissdom this past February, and we bonded over our gluten free lunches. What really stuck out, though, were the “business cards” she was handing out. Forget the “regular” kind, like mine…she was giving everyone handmade, miniature journals in which to record some thoughts and memories of […]
I’ve got a treat for you today. If you’re like me and love to get mail, love to pick out new stationary and write out a note to send, or spend hours picking out the perfect invitations for the kids’ birthday parties and Christmas cards, you’ve probably swooned over the […]

You all know I absolutely love my new lens that I got for my birthday, so I couldn’t pass […]
You may have seen my #kidvacation date night outfit on Instagram last week. On Friday evening, it was only about 90 degrees, and got cooler as the sun went down (obviously).
Normally, the only “shoes” I wear in the summer are flip flops, different colored flip flops, and maybe an embellished […]
This weekend is Father’s Day, as you all know. I was thinking family movie theater experience #2 (an item on our Summer Bucket List) but we should probably ask Daddy what he wants to do. Regardless of what he decides, we’ll be heading to Wendy’s for a frosty.
