Memorial Day Weekend 2017
Teaching a four year old about what Memorial Day is all about put it into perspective for me yesterday. The fact that I get to have this life, with all of these freedoms, is unreal. May we all be forever thankful for those that paved the way, and those that are paving and protecting those freedoms […]

enough
A couple weeks ago I had my nails and eyebrows done. Which is a shock in and of itself lately. First I had my eyebrows done, and the lady told me my eye brows are “too thin”. Nothing new to me, just what God gave me. I sat down to get a pedicure. Another […]

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 […]

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 […]
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.
