ideas for dressing little boys for fall pictures
{Affiliate links are used in this post} Honestly I should really be working on my own wardrobe right about now. With no real push lately, I’m mostly found in zella leggings and a t-shirt or a loft top with some jeans. I need to step my own game up, as much as I do my kids. […]
Disney World for a Milestone Birthday
Last month we celebrated my mother in law’s milestone birthday at Disney World. She had always wanted to stay at the place where you wake up and go to bed and animals are outside your balcony. It was such a great time for all of us, and I know the boys loved it. We had the […]

why we love the Windsor Court in New Orleans
I grew up going to the New Orleans area every summer visiting family, and in college I lived down in the warehouse district on South St Peters street working at my uncles law firm for two summers. I always loved visiting but living there gave me a whole new appreciation. I love the feeling I get there. It’s beautiful […]
oh, irma.
{florida print by paper please studio} The name irma means War Goddess, and unfortunately she lived up to her name.

We hit the road on Wednesday after school finished, and headed to […]

5 tips on fostering sweet sibling relationships

What can I say? a white woman? with all the privilege that goes along with that. But I can’t not say something. What happened in Charlottesville turned my stomach. It makes me physically ill that this kind of hate is out there. The fact that there are people that think this way, people we encounter on […]

Legoland Florida with Toddlers
We had so much fun yesterday at Legoland with our friends Jordan and Covington. It was our first trip to Legoland, so I don’t have many tips.
