business card valentine diy
I searched all over for a cute police valentine for Tucks class. Last year I used Minted, and while they have a ton of adorable ones right now, they don’t have any police ones that are exactly what I was looking for. When I couldn’t find anything I decided to repurpose the graphic from Tucks police birthday. […]
seven
{photo by ryan ray} JB and I have been together for nine and a half years, married for seven today. The beginning of our story starts out on the soccer field, during my brothers games, when I was five and he was seven. Back and forth crushes for years, but first a friendship was formed. Which […]
Bar stool roundup
A sweet instagram follower recently asked if I do any e-design. I was so flattered!! Especially since she has such amazing taste. I’ve had so much fun sourcing items, one of them being bar stools. Our bar stools are one of my big purchase regrets (thankfully I don’t have too many!). They came broken […]
january beach days + the crazy days before two
{wes is in the cooper color block jon jon by tbbc} Despite these pretty pictures and a pretty perfect afternoon at the beach yesterday, life has been a little wonky lately. Wes is at an age that is Hard. Wes is 100% head strong, incredibly smart, and always knows what he wants but can’t fully communicate […]
Vintage Bar Armoire
I recently discovered gin & tonics! they are so refreshing. thank you Crissy!! {anthropologie carafe/ glasses} Last year I started keeping all of our wine corks.

bedroom refresh – a new fan
One of my goals this January was to finally put a new fan in our bedroom. Honestly, that was goal number one when we moved in. But it’s funny how you get used to an old fan, and it doesn’t bother you as much. But it was hideous! I’ll show y’all the before and after […]
FOUR
Tuck is four! He is kind, compassionate, sweet, brave, funny, loving, and friendly. Ninny would always say “he is so tender hearted!!” and he really is. He gave ninny his monogrammed teddy a couple of months ago to “make her smile”. He promised on that visit to her, that next time he would bring her […]
January Goals
January is dear to me. I so love the fresh start. It’s crazy how much clutter Christmas adds to your home. It’s good clutter, but it’s nice when it goes in the attic too. I love the clean slate January gives both my mind and my home. It’s also the month of our anniversary and my […]
my ninny
Sorry it’s been quiet here! I promised fun content, and it’s been crickets. With good reason, as my Ninny went to be with Jesus last week. We got in late last night from Mississippi. It’s hard, and I know it’ll always be at least a little hard knowing she’s not here. I miss her so […]
our chalk paint dresser
Recently I discovered Facebook Marketplace (not sponsored!) while on my phone. I love it! It’s like craigslist, but I find it easier to search, easier to upload a listing, and you can limit the radius you’re willing to go to pick something up. I spotted this dresser – a drexel, that had been painted using chalk […]
Christmas Morning
Christmas Eve I had our annual gift exchange with girlfriends (14 years going strong!) and it was so special. We spent the rest of the day and into the evening at my parents, playing, swimming, cooking. Christmas morning was pure magic. I loved Tucks reaction to seeing his real police motorcycle that santa brought him! […]
Thank you + reader survey
{photo by shannon kirsten} Before I sign off for the rest of the week, I was hoping y’all would help me with a reader survey. I am so grateful for anyone who pops on here to read, and can’t believe it when I get emails from people who have been reading since the beginning. […]

Getting those treasured photos in Frames with Framebridge
{my top is jcrew and I have worn it so much since thanksgiving!} Last year I needed to get some original art work framed, and armed with a coupon for 90% off, I went to Michaels thinking I was going to get an amazing deal. Upon picking out the mat, and frame – both pretty […]
Holiday Party
Heather made this print that I put up in JB’s office using Framebridge. He always gets asked about it from clients. I thought making magnets would be a good little favor for them and a way to take the print home. And of course, Dixie Design gift tags add the perfect touch. {blue taper […]

Christmas home tour
How about a little Christmas home tour?? Growing up my mom decked our halls out. She still does! I love it. I especially loved having my own little tree to light up every morning in my room. While I haven’t given the boys trees in their rooms yet, I’ve been working hard to make sure they know, […]
