I haven't lived somewhere where it's nice enough to eat dinner outdoors (cool temperatures, zero mosquitos and flies) in years so I feel like I owe it to myself and our family to enjoy it a...
Friday nights have quickly become family movie night. Brett and I are usually both pretty tired so it's a nice way to enjoy the evening because it means less fussing and more smiles. This weeken...
When picking names for our growing baby girl we settled pretty early on the name Ruby. It was a good mix of old-fashioned and relevant and I just liked how it sounded. With the last name Denbow and t...

This maxi wrap skirt has got to be one of the quickest sewing projects I've ever finished! I bought this fabric at my friend, Roxanne's, garage sale about a month ago and set it aside knowi...
Every now and then I get the itch for a road trip. Back in Missouri we usually scratched the itch by visiting family or venturing to St. Louis but these days I'm itching for an epic, summer time...
I'd like to nominate yesterday (Monday) as an alternate Mother's Day. Mostly because of the sunshine. Ruby and I enjoyed some time trolling about the backyard enjoying the perfect weather w...
I'm so thankful we got to spend Mother's Day as a family this year. It didn't go as expected (at all) but we managed to stay flexible and make the best of a piano moving mess, cold and...
I was dreading this week and distracting myself from what I anticipated would be the start of 10 days without Brett. I shared a little about how I was feeling on Instagram recently and was met with s...

I have been a fan of Misha Lulu's collections for a few years now after having seen several of her pieces worn online and by some pretty cute kids in Springfield. I love how her lines have evolv...
Our dining room may be my favorite room in the house. It's large, open, and gets as much sunlight as a girl could want throughout the day thanks to those gloriously large, West-facing windows. O...
I've been trying to get my hands on a copy of this magazine all month but none of our local bookstores, big or small, carry it so I was so glad when Elsie shared it recently on A Beautiful Mess....
Our last dining room table was a charming little white number that we'd found on Craigslist in MO for $30. It served us well and made living in a home without a dining room (last rental) doable ...
