To wish you all a happy Valentine’s Day! Here are my sweetest captures from France in 2011 – we stayed one night in Coeur De Belleville in France in the cutest bed & breakfast you wi...

We had a scare yesterday. Two years ago Ella, our first dog, was diagnosed with Boxer Cardiomyopathy. Basically, it’s a congenital heart defect that is common in Boxers. Now there is a genetic ...
So there I was, just prancing along the Internet when I saw a wonderful thing on Victoria’s SF Girl by Bay blog in her recent post about her lovely shell pink dining room. She discovered this ...
