Remember a week or so ago when I shared some pictures of a project I was working on? Well, I’m finally ready to give away some details! I’m sure you are all very relieved since you’ve been dying to hear what’s going on with that incredible Anna Maria Horner fabric.
I’m making a [...]
Apparently we can’t get enough of home renovation. After doing our whole main level last year, you’d think we’d throw in the towel! Nope, not us!
We’ve decided to take on our enclosed front porch. As usual, I forgot to take a real “before” picture. So, let me give you a mental picture: Lots of [...]
I’ve been spending a lot of time thinking about the money I spend on food. Being in charge of our family’s meal planning is both a blessing and a huge responsibility. I obviously care about the nutritional value of the food we eat, but I also am concerned about getting more bang for my buck.

In case you haven’t had quite enough photos of Parker, my friend just posted some on her blog. She’s a budding photographer and I think she did a pretty fantastic job of capturing just how happy Parker is (most of the time!). I love her blog too, so I thought you might enjoy checking it [...]

My life before being married was fairly predictable. In fact, my morning routine might have been scheduled down to the minute with how truly routine it was. Get up, take a shower, get dressed, eat breakfast, do my hair, brush teeth, and out the door. Then my days at work were all pretty much the [...]
I love family traditions. I grew up with a super creative mama who would decorate the house for every season and come up with all sorts of ways to celebrate the holidays. And I’m not just talking about the big holidays.
St. Patty’s Day? No problem. She’d whip up classic Irish [...]
Here is a little snapshot of what has been on my sewing queue (look at me getting all French and fancy!) this week. I decided it was high time I took a break from the kitchen and paid a little attention to my sewing machine. I must say, it has been quite the [...]
