Hey Everyone! Talking about being creative today on the blog. I was going on forever, so I decided to split this into two parts. Also, I forgot to turn my phone around to the HD side, so you don'...
Hey all! I'm still on a chatty video kick, so today you get to listen to me ramble on about our upcoming move and such. Hope you enjoy it! xo, rach
Here is the list of products I talked about in the video. These are all items that I have found work well for my dry, sensitive, acne-prone skin...although quite a few work for all skin types. Orchid...
I haven't been blogging much lately, and it's not because I have nothing to say. Actually, my thoughts are on overdrive most of the time right now. School ending, summer approaching, the mo...
So, here's the thing... I thought I just wasn't a sweet tooth kind of person. The idea of dessert usually just doesn't appeal to me. Cheese? Yes. Sweets? Not so much. Well, I've b...
Just a bit of my day today, on this Monday. Just running errands with some tasty food thrown into the day. Sushi for breakfast- we decided that philly rolls are like the Japanese lox-n-bagel. Grocery...
Just some iphone pics from my day today. I haven't been around the blog much because honestly nothing all that interesting is happening. We are in the last month of school, and honestly some day...
Yesterday we loaded up the car with our swimsuits and pillows, and headed down to Galveston for the night. When we left the house it was not under the most relaxing conditions. Voices had been raised...
When I think of my friend Emily I always think of horizons. What an optimistic correlation! Horizons make me think of promise, future, potential. But they always make me think of her and her painting...
Yesterday morning, I completely tripped on a sandal and flopped onto the sofa, resulting in me making crazy sounds while trying to untwist myself from my weird half-reclines position. Fits of laughte...
Sometimes I try to see life from another perspective. See that there is more than one way to go about our days. I try to say yes more often. To balance out all of those motherly "no's."...
Some very cool poscards that have been painted over from India. Given to us by David's sister. other bits of inspiration --> Jenny's dyed muslin bags. This amazing DIY faux inlaid dre...
I don't know about you, but often on Monday mornings I find myself wanting to start the week energized and feeling good about myself. Usually the weekends are when we go out to eat or have a bi...
A very full weekend of nothing much at all, and boy did that feel great.
This is my collection of active journals. They are all over the house, in my purse, in cabinets, you name it. All of them serve different purposes, but the shared goal is a place for all of my dis...
I liked these two pictures together. Somehow they feel like a reflection of one another. Lately I've been picking up the pentax more often than any other camera, and that feels good. I like t...
Some pictures from Easter down in Zapata, TX on the ranch. An Easter piñata is always a must. It's serious business here, with it rigged so one of the guys can control it from the water tower....
I've never really thought of myself as a superstitious person, but that is changing. See...we have a lot of stuff going on right now. Moving to a new city soon. Big changes in the air. And ...
I am taking a moment out of the easter photos to do a post on bits of technology or pieces of advice that are really helping me lately. This week I'll adress apps. //apps// When I first got my ...
Hey all! We just got back from Laredo, where we had a great time catching up with David's family. There was lots of swimming at the hotel. Eating and more eating. No trip to Laredo is comlet...
A few nights ago we watched Midnight in Paris. Woody Allen is a genius first off. It's one of those movies where even the smallest of parts just come to life. Adrien Brody as Dali...awesome. ...
This morning I watched a lady ride down the street with her toddler on one of those battery powered kiddie jeeps. I seriously think she was using it as a vehicle. It started raining right before we ...
my tips for turning a bizarre week around: 1. Take a shower. seems like a given, but a lot of you moms out there probably know what I mean when I say sometimes I turn around and realize I ran out of...
A week or so ago I witnessed and interaction that just made me sad. Olivia was excitedly talking to a girl about and idea and the girl replied "uhhhh, okaaay?..." as if getting excited abo...
Waking to a massive tension headache will certainly humble a person. and then I get up anyway, because lunches have to be made; children need to be driven to school. I make the sandwiches, and bag ...
A few film shots from our trip to California Last night I sent David to the store for decaf. When did we hit an age where we can no longer drink caffinated coffee before bed? Or eat fried food in ...
Except for the top picture (taken last week) these film shots were all from yesterday morning...Olivia's birthday. My sweet girl turned nine a bit quietly this year. We had a lovely family day...
I wanted to get a lot done this week. I realize it's only Wednesday and I should feel like I have plenty of time, but I can tell it isn't going to be a week of action. Instead I find myse...
I dyed my hair back to dark ash brown, my natural hair color, a few weeks ago. The ends were blond and the roots were almost 50% gray. I just wanted uniform color, but here we are three weeks l...
Sorry I've been so MIA lately. Between all the chaos of the girls' school and then our trip to California last week I just haven't had much time to write. This weekend marks the end ...
