We went to Hollywood Studios on Saturday, but the day was just so full, I never got a chance to post these before bed! It was by far the most special day for Oliver – the Star Wars characters w...
I totally failed to post photos from day 4 (our visit to Hollywood Studios) – which was quite possibly our best day to date! I will try to get them up tomorrow, if for no one’s sake but m...
Highlights: 1. We rode “Soarin’” twice and LOVED it! 2. Oliver tripped and fell and spilled his snow cone. A kid with a spilled treat crying at Disney is a sad sight. We got ...
Day 1 was hit! We left the house at 8am and returned at 11pm – a 15 hour day! Sheesh! We’re exhausted! But happy and ready to jump back in today! Epcot – here we come!
We go to Starbucks. A lot. There are five (or more?) in our town and it seems like any time we are going somewhere we pass one and decide to drop in. Problem: now the kids want to get a special treat...
We are officially in Orlando today, enjoying Day 1 of our surprise Disney vacation, just me & my Sis with our 5-year-olds. Bliss! And with the theme of traveling in mind, I thought I’d shar...
So, I’ve been a bit of a weepy mess lately. Yes, I’m a girl, it happens. But seriously, in the past week our lives have seemed to change so dramatically I can’t help but feel a bit ...
It’s been a looong time since I’ve written a garage sale post! Like, at least since last summer. I’ve gone out a couple of times this season and only this time have I actually gotte...
I shared this photo on Instagr.am yesterday, but I’m not sure how much that audience + this audience crosses over, so double sharing because I love it so much It’s Hazel playing with her ...
It turns out, motherhood isn’t so easy. Oftentimes it comes very naturally and the moments we share with our children are pure joy. Sometimes, hours after we put the kids to bed for the night, ...
{ten points to the person who can tell me what broadway song I’m quoting in the title!} Yes, something really good is coming! Except I’m not allowed to tell the one person that would love...
Hello, friends! Big, happy news for your Monday morning! Have you heard about the #Influence Conference yet? If not, I really want to tell you about it because it’s amazing and it’s the f...
Yesterday was Oliver’s last day of school for the year. His last day at MSP (which we will miss terribly). His last time to be together in a classroom with that group of friends and teachers th...
Let me begin with a photo that makes me very happy. All of my pretty new embroidery threads organized neatly in their clear plastic box, waiting to be made into words and designs and pretty things th...
You know, because it’s fun to change things up a bit! Actually, my Lizzie stopped by this morning to raid my closet for shoes and dresses for upcoming year-end senior festivities and I bamboozl...
When I re-did the playroom in February, I wanted to add a crafty, personal touch to the window wall. I love a good project, and I needed something big, so I bought two giant cardboard letters (“...
This past weekend was Downtown Franklin’s annual Main Street Festival. Always fun, always crowded. Which is why, when we noticed a mini-carnival set up a few blocks off the square we opted to e...
But as far as we’re concerned, summer is in full swing! Happy Thursday, friends! Enjoy the sunshine!
I haven’t done a “what I wore” in a while, so when I got home from errands yesterday I set up the ol’ tripod and snapped a photo to share with y’all. Ten points to Targe...
Oliver is at school this morning, which means Hazel gets to pick what we play with no well-meaning big brothers with big ideas and grand plans to get in her way. She just wants to play with her babie...
We had a happy, happy weekend! The Dukes‘ (minus their littles) came up from Atlanta for the Country Music Marathon (Ry and I bought 2 bibs back in December, then life happened and we didn̵...
Hello, friends! Welcome to Friday. Welcome to the final day of Sewing 101 and the day we make our Market Bags a reality! Today’s videos will walk you through the entire process from start to fi...
Good afternoon, lovelies! First and foremost, before I say another thing, I have a confession: I messed up. On Monday I went on and on about finding the grain line of your fabric and how it will be p...
Welcome to week four! Who’s still with me? I’m sure the non-sewists and elite-sewists among us have probably grown bored of the month of April and I apologize for focusing so singly on on...
Hello, Friday! This is our last Sewing 101 technique lesson for the series. Can you believe it? We’ve covered lots of good stuff over the past three weeks, but you guys, there’s still so ...
Hello and welcome to zipper day! Today you will need: 1 – all-purpose zipper (4″ is great, but longer is fun because it means we get to shorten it!) 2 – 4″x6″ fabric rec...
