Until a couple of weeks ago, I operated under the assumption that I don’t often wear patterns. I said as much to friend, who looked at me like I had sprouted a second head and promptly burst ou...

I am no girl scout. No one has ever instructed me in the ways of the woods. But last night, I made fire. It may have been small, but it was mighty enough to make three s’mores for hungry kids. ...
My basement finish is finally in it’s last stages. Besides a few tweaks here and there, all it really needs is furniture. While we wait for that to arrive, I’ve been hitting the web hard ...
I am always on the hunt for that most elusive of items – an inexpensive pair of shoes that doesn’t look cheap. There’s a reason why most of the affordable ones are priced so low. Th...
My husband and I went out to celebrate our 10th anniversary the other night. My sweet guy made the reservation at one of the new hot spots in town, The Bachelor Farmer, and I absolutely loved my meal...
I’ve mentioned before that most of my photos on this site are taken by my 7 year old daughter. Well, now my 3 year old is getting in on the action. She has decided to become my director, tellin...
I always love to host a giveaway, but there are certain ones that get me super duper shmuper (as my daughter would say) excited. I’m happy to introduce you all to Noonday Collection. It’s...
It’s been another busy week – and the weekend’s not going to be any less so. Today I’m having a garage sale at a friend’s house. Wish me luck – I’m not a gar...
If I had been posting daily pictures of my ensembles 10 years ago today, the outfit of the day would’ve been big and white and poufy. Today I celebrate 10 years of wedded bliss to my favorite g...
My kids and I love to go out exploring in the woods behind our house (well, we’re taking a bit of a break from it due to the influx of ticks we’ve been finding, but that’s a story f...

I’m always looking for ways to change up what I already have in my closet, and wear them in new ways. I love using things I already have on hand – cuz who wants to run to the craft store ...
As long as I can remember, I’ve been an optimist. My glass is half full, my future is bright, and everything will turn out well in the end. Even during the years I spent struggling to conceive,...
“So what if it’s raining,” I think to myself. “I’ll simply grab an umbrella, and since it matches my outfit, it’ll still be cute. I can make this work.” Exce...
Even if you aren’t a mother, you probably have a mother or know a mother – so let’s celebrate them all this weekend! There’s just a couple days left to shop for Mother’s...
I love a good DIY, but I always like to keep it simple – I just don’t have time these days for anything requiring a lot of steps. I also like to stay within a certain budget when putting ...
Now that the Spring Boutique has passed us by, I can go back to obsessing about when my basement will finally be finished. Happily, it’s getting there. My house may still be filled with sawdust...
Nary a spring season goes by without the term ‘nautical’ being added to the list of trends for the warmer months. And who can blame the list makers? It’s hard not to love a little m...

I love having local vendors at my events, and Whispering Oaks Alpacas hails from right here in good old Prior Lake. Whispering Oaks raises alpacas on their farm here in PL, then shear, card, and spin...
